Welcome to episode 12 of Wild Conversations! Join your host, Jess Newton, as she delves into the fascinating story behind the creation of one of the UK's largest animal sanctuarys. In this episode, Jess continues her chat with Steve, the passionate founder of the sanctuary, uncovering the surprising reason why visitor numbers were initially very low. Prepare to be charmed as Steve reveals how the arrival of a wonderful meerkat family sparked an incredible surge in popularity, drawing people to the park in droves.
Steve also shares a heartwarming tale about the mental health charity, The Shaw Trust. Hear how a group of dedicated volunteers arrived and ended up becoming an integral part of the sanctuary for a couple of years, playing a vital role in the construction of their first walk-through aviary.
Ever wondered about the sanctuary's catchy strap-line, "There's More Than Just Parrots at the Parrot Zoo"? Steve finally reveals the amusing origin of this famous ditty and how its unexpected popularity after being aired on local radio station Lincs FM both delighted and slightly overwhelmed him. Tune in for an insightful and heartwarming episode filled with animal antics and community spirit!
