Paignton Zoo’s Crocodile Swamp Returns

Paignton Zoo is set to re-open its iconic Crocodile Swamp exhibit at 11am on Saturday 18 January, an optimistic milestone after a period of financial hardship. The re-opening is a testament to the zoo’s resilience and the support from the local community.

This winter, Plymouth Central Park is set to receive over 1,000 new trees as part of an ambitious planting initiative aimed at enhancing biodiversity and supporting the local environment. The project will also introduce nearly 9,000m² of vibrant wildflower meadows, creating a haven for wildlife around the popular Central Park Golf Course.

A free exhibition highlighting how Dartmoor’s wild places have inspired former prisoners and people going through addiction recovery is being shown at Princetown Visitor Centre.
