Visit from Miranda Stevenson and David Field

We were extremely pleased to welcome two special visitors to the Park today - Miranda Stevenson, director of BIAZA (British and Irish Association of Zoos and Aquaria) and David Field, director of ZSL (London and Whipsnade Zoo) who is also part of the membership selection panel for BIAZA. Having recently been awarded provisional membership of BIAZA the Park is now privileged to be mentored by David Field who has kindly offered to guide us towards full membership status.
The reason for the visit today was for our visitors to have an overview of the Park - having a look at our animal and bird collections, our husbandry standards and some of our operational and management protocols. After spending four hours with us at the Park, Miranda and David gave us extremely positive feedback including some very constructive suggestions. The good news is that we're very much on the right track for being awarded full membership in due course. We're looking forward to working closely with both David and Miranda in the months ahead and in continuing to strive for excellence here at Seaview Wildlife Encounter.
