【推荐2】Trainee Keeper Day

A unique opportunity for your child   (aged 12 to 16 years) to go behind the scenes at Cotswold Wildlife Park and Gardens. Your child will get the chance to gain practical experience of working with our varied animals and meet some of the keepers who look after them on a daily basis. Your child will work with one keeper in a group of up to 4 children.

The Trainee Keeper Day will run from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm and will include activities such as mucking out   (打扫畜栏)and feeding some of the animals, as well as learning about techniques we use to make sure our animals are kept well.

The cost per child is   ￡160.00 and they will be given a certificate as a souvenir of their fantastic day.

You will need to provide suitable weatherproof clothing suitable for wearing outdoors in sometimes mucky conditions and strong footwear suitable for wearing in muddy conditions. We will provide your child with other protective clothing he needs to use during the day, such as special keeper vests and gloves.

Is it dangerous? Frankly speaking, working with any animal always carries a degree of risk, but   the   participants   will   be   fully   informed   of   what   they   should   and   should   not   do   in   any situation. Besides, they will be fully monitored at all times, and all necessary precautions will be taken. So far, no accident has occurred to the participants.
