We visited Dudley Zoo in Dudley, England, just outside of Birmingham. It is a unique zoo with over 1,000 animals, listed buildings and an 11th Century Castle in the center. Dudley Castle was originally built in the 11th Century and had royal visitors like Queen Elizabeth I and Queen Elizabeth II. The zoo grew up around the castle and offers a train ride and a visitor chairlift from 1958. Animals include several types of monkeys, large cats like tigers and snow leopards, a reptile house, small critters in the castle area, penguins, otters, red pandas, lemurs, birds, binturongs and many others. It's a fantastic zoo that combines animals and history, two of my favourite things!
