The zoo is home to a range of animals including meerkats, ring-tailed lemurs, Asian short-clawed otters, Scottish wildcats, various reptiles, and a colourful selection of birds.

Absolutely — the zoo is specifically designed with young children in mind. Enclosures are low and accessible, paths are pushchair-friendly, and the compact size means it won't overwhelm younger visitors.

Most families spend around 1.5 to 2 hours inside the zoo, though you can easily extend your day by exploring the rest of Battersea Park afterwards.

There is a café on site within the zoo, and the wider Battersea Park has additional refreshment options. The park is also very picnic-friendly if you'd prefer to bring your own food.

Yes, the zoo's paths are suitable for pushchairs and wheelchairs throughout, making it a comfortable visit for families with babies, toddlers, or anyone with mobility requirements.

There is car parking available within Battersea Park (charges apply). However, arriving by train is highly recommended, as Battersea Park and Queenstown Road stations are both a short walk away.
