Meet some of our farmyard friends, try your hand at pumpkin skittles, take part in our Barn Dance workshop, enjoy live music and most importantly, save the Halloween Hoedown from the Beast of Mossy Bottom, as his army of pumpkins take over Longleat.

Look who's out in the Safari Drive-Through! 👀 Our Amur tiger cubs have been getting used to the sights and sounds of Tiger Territory, and we were very lucky to capture their first moments in their Drive-Through enclosure 🐯❤️

Happy 15th birthday to Bernadette!  No, Bernadette isn't a rabbit, hare or even a capybara - she's a lesser-known species called the mara. While they may not be as pupular, we think they deserve just as much love ❤️

Happy International Wombat Day to our gorgeous girl, Ellie ❤️ Here's our favourite wombat fact for the occasion: did you know that wombats are the only known animal species to poop in cubes?

Marvel at the small but mighty! 🪲🕷️🪳 When you go on your Walking Safari this October half term, don't miss Tiny Titans, where you can meet some magnificent bugs and creatures in close-up encounters. Will you be able to handle one?

This is a traditional Nepalese name meaning 'beautiful' and 'handsome', which we think suits him very well. He's already earned himself the nickname of 'Sunny' among the keepers, as he's such a little ray of sunshine to care for ☀️ See if you can spot him on your next visit!

And it's likely they'll spend it upside-down, since sloths eat, sleep, mate and even give birth like this! One of the only times they'll climb down from the trees is to defecate once per week.

Animal Park has been longlisted for a @TVChoice Award! For the fourth year in a row, the popular @BBC series filmed here at Longleat is up for the Best Daytime Show award, and we couldn't be more excited. #tvchoiceawards
