Research at the Zoo

At Drayton Manor Zoo we encourage college, undergraduate and postgraduate students to carry out research projects based in our zoo.

Research can range from animal behaviour to environmental enrichment. It's important to us as a zoo as it helps us understand how to provide the animals with the best level of care possible and make sure that our animals are both physically and mentally healthy.

If you would like to carry out research at Drayton Manor Zoo, please contact us on alicedoyle@draytonmanor.co.uk.
