New Forest Wildlife Park

The New Forest Wildlife Park?(formerly?The New Forest Otter, Owl and Wildlife Conservation Park) is located on the edge of?The New Forest?close to the towns of?Ashurst?and?Lyndhurst. The Park specialises in native and past-native wildlife of Britain and otters and owls from around the globe, housing four species of the former and ten of the latter. The Park is recognised as the UK’s leading institution in the rescue and rehabilitation of sick, injured and orphaned wild otters, along with the rehabilitation of other wildlife such as owls, deer and foxes in similar situations, and it is involved in several conservation projects, including breeding programmes for endangered native species such as?Scottish wildcats,?water voles?and?harvest mice.
