Posted by Mutual-Funds | Hotel Review | Thursday 2 July 2009 2:54 am

London is often regarded as a sprawling metropolis home to millions of people from across the world. It is one of the worlds great cities and home to famous stars and the most glamorous fashion houses. Ask about Wildlife in London and people might think you?re a bit strange. But in fact, London is a great place for animal lovers to visit. The London Zoo for example, is home to over 12,000 specimens. It?s possible to have all sorts of wildlife encounters when you?re in old London town.

Dedicate one day to getting up nice and early and you won?t be disappointed. An early visit to the magnificent London Wetland Centre will ensure you see plenty of fascinating creatures. The London Wetland Centre along the Queen Elizabeth Walk is made up of more than 40 hectares of wetlands in the heart of the city. From there, head to the Thames and pop into the London Aquarium. The are over 350 species of aquatic wildlife in over 50 displays ensuring that there is something for everyone. Don?t miss the sharks and piranhas at feeding time for a sight you won?t easily forget. Bird lovers should head to St James? Park for the daily pelican feeding at 2.30pm. Take a guided tour of Duck Island and have a picnic with all the feathery residents. Die hard animal lovers will want to dedicate a day at the London Zoo. Try the amazing ?Zookeeper for a day? experience at the Zoo and get up nice and close with some of the zoo?s most popular animals. Imagine feeding some giraffes, playing with the monkeys or going behind the scenes with the big cats.
