Series highlights are set to include new-born lion cubs, the UKs youngest polar bear and some grumpy guineafowl. It was filmed during 2019 before the start of the coronavirus pandemic.

David Field, RZSS CEO said, “We are so excited to have the hard work and passion of our amazing teams showcased in this new series. Our staff do incredible work caring for the animals at our parks, with all their different personalities and quirks, and protecting endangered species in the wild.

“Inside The Zoo gives people the chance to see just what it takes to give lion cubs their first health check, put on a giant lantern event, weigh a polar bear cub and so much more.”
