Meet our new baby gorilla
Howletts Wild Animal Park is celebrating the birth of a new western lowland gorilla, born overnight on 19 December 2025. The infant was born to Sanki and Djanghou, two gorillas with deep roots at Howletts, and represents the 155th gorilla birth across Howletts and Port Lympne combined – a significant milestone for the conservation programme.
Each birth at Howletts and Port Lympne Reserve plays a vital role in the long-term conservation of this critically endangered species, contributing not only to the European breeding programme but also to wider efforts to protect and rewild gorillas in their natural habitats.
Animal Experiences
Get even closer to your favourite species on an unforgettable animal encounter. You will join a small group of fellow animal-lovers and one of our expert Animal Keepers, who will escort you to an exclusive, often behind-the-scenes area of the park. There, you will be able to ask your expert all of your animal-questions and enjoy an unforgettable animal encounter during which you will have the chance to interact with and, where possible, hand-feed your chosen species.
Journey to the Ice Age
Take a break from the modern world and step back thousands of years. Our Animals of the Ice Age exhibition is a huge hit with families, offering a rare chance to walk amongst life-sized prehistoric creatures. Stand in the shadow of the mighty Mammoth, face off with a Saber-toothed cat, and discover the giant Megatherium (an elephant-sized sloth!).
Like the rest of the park, the Ice Age trail is flat and buggy-friendly, so even the littlest egg-splorers can come face-to-face with these ancient giants.
P.S. If it's a little drizzly, the Ice Age walk is a great way to stay dry under the trees!
