Topic: Crocodiles of the World

Crocodiles of the World started as one man’s dream to make the world a kinder, more compassionate place for crocodiles, especially those species listed as endangered in the wild. Founded in 2011 by crocodile conservationist, Shaun Foggett, the zoo started life on a small site, Crawley Mill in Witney, Oxfordshire and mainly opened at weekends. As interest grew, so did the opening hours with schools visits and birthday parties too. With increasing visitor numbers and a growing population of crocodiles, the zoo urgently needed to move to a much larger site and in February 2014 the zoo and all it’s residents relocated to a new site in Brize Norton (the former Foxbury Farm site).
