Thank you to everyone for this. It was so interesting to hear about all the donkeys' characters and about how you care for them. I'm looking forward to seeing them again later in the year 😊

Brilliant! I love the Poitou donkeys the most, their ears are so big and fluffy!

[@NorthumberlandZoo]

They are epic, like big puppies still!

[@lynnmcardle5249]

Great video. Love how in the sped up video of Jett and Jazz they seem to move as one. Lovely to get to know them all more ❤

[@NorthumberlandZoo]

That was taken over about 45 minutes while the keepers prepped hay nets!

Hi max , last week you said you would reveal two of the species that would be going into the old parrot house . Just wondering

[@NorthumberlandZoo]

You are not wrong - huge apologies - that is my fault! Been such a busy week and it went out the window! Next week for sure 😬

[@LouciferFlump]

Well I thought Wilbur was pregnant and that George was a baby!! 😳🥴🙄 I stand corrected!!! 🤣👍🏻

[@NorthumberlandZoo]

Haha - Wilbur has been ‘pregnant’ for around 10 years 🤦🏼‍♀️ one stubborn Foal!
