Channel 4 certainly have got lots of coverage this year on how places prepare for Christmas, and I can't wait for this one, London Zoo at Christmas, on 23 December 2022 at 8pm!

It will be Lights, Camera, ACTION! at ZSL's London Zoo and ZSL's Whipsnade Zoo as Channel 4 look to see how the zoos prepare for Christmas!

The team transform London Zoo and yet still care for the 25,000 animals in their charge at London and Whipsnade. 

Some animals are celebrating their first Christmas such as the three extremely rare Sumatran tiger Cubs and the Asian elephant Nang Phaya.  There are animal arrivals, and winter births so it's busy, busy, busy - the staff are beavering away to make a magical Christmas time for everyone! 

There will be more fun on social media with more behind-the-scenes pictures and zoo facts, so this really is an hour not to be missed! 

Fly off to find out all about it here!

Now, if you want to give a gift membership or take out a membership which will help support ZSL and give you lots of lovely animal days out at ZSL London Zoo and ZSL Whipsnade Zoo (and lots more besides), there's 20% off gift memberships until 4th January 2023 so this would be a great time to take one out.  Give a gift membership today here.

And you could also hop, slither or canter over to their online shop, which has soft toys, animal adoptions, homeware gifts and stocking fillers - support conservation as you shop!
