Paignton Zoo
While staying at the Torquay holiday cottages or the Devon holiday cottages [http://www.bluechipholidays.co.uk/devon.html], you can take the kids to a fun-filled zoo adventure at Paignton Zoo. Paignton Zoo houses numerous species of flora and fauna. The children will certainly have a grand time as they explore the savannah, nearby desert and forest altogether in one place. Amazing display of the most spectacular breed of animals and colourful birds will captivate the heart of kids and young at hearts. You will further appreciate the entire zoo as you visit different areas where the animals thrive.
Featured Animals and Birds
Eastern Bongos: Inside Paignton Zoo are endangered species like the Eastern Bongos. They became part of the list of nearly extinct animals as the demand for their meat grows. These animals thrive deep into the forests and have very distinguished colour-reddish brown with bold stripes. However, Eastern Bongos only come out of their niche inside the forest during night time, when they hunt for food.
Gouldian Finch: A very unique feature of Gouldian Finch is that it is very hard to distinguish male and female species. If you are a keen observer, the only difference you will notice is that females are a little darker. These beautiful species of birds are very vibrant and bear the shades of scarlet, yellow and black. They hardly are seen on the ground and are always perched up on the tree branches.
Senegal Bushbaby: Nocturnal primates, Senegal Bushbaby are usually seen leaping from one tree to another. Their big and protruding eyes are what you can normally identify as they hop into different trees during night time. They do not highly depend on their eyes to hunt for food; they use their sense of smell to catch prey. High leapers, Senegal Bushbaby can jump as high as 5 meters from the ground. Funny as it may seem but a unique characteristic of this animal is that they tend to urinate on their hands and their scent marks their transfer to another tree.
How to Get to Paignton Zoo
Paignton Zoo is very accessible from the Torquay holiday cottages or the Devon holiday cottages; you may either take a bus or train.
