- The Abandoned Wildlife Park.... Please note this land is still owned and the owners still live on site!.. there are new CCTV cameras and security systems in place. Please do not. Is it this site as you will be turned around very quickly....
somewhere I used to love going as a kid. It closed almost x6 years ago now and which really is a shame as it was such a lovely place to visit. Lots of different kinds of animals, friendly staff and a beautiful location. It was really ice to walk around the site as it brought back lots of happy memories for me.. but at the same time it was also quite sad. As always the exact location will not be shared and would appreciate it if you could keep it to yourselves if you do know where it is 🤫🙂

Having worked in the cafe here when I was still at high school (I’m 42 now) it brought back wonderful memories of people I worked with and my mum and my grandad worked there too and I have fond memories of going as a kid when grandad worked there thank you for sharing. It’s really sad that its so run down and may end up having houses built on it. It was always really busy when I worked there!!
We were so sad to see this park close. Their Wallaby encounter was amazing.
This is heartbreaking to watch💔, my heart ached the whole way through watching this but what wonderful memories flooded my head of visiting this place loads in my childhood; i still miss it soo much and im gutted my daughter doesn't get to share what excitement and happiness this place brought me as a child❤ i have some pics from 2015; not long before it closed x thanku so much for this vid though x
It’s flamingo park on the Isle of Wight near Seaview I use to go there when it was open sad
I visited the a few times, on the last year of its operation, I treated my misses to be a keeper for the day experience. She loved it and still got the certificate and photos of the day.
I have such happy memories of this place. My husband built many of the enclosures there. So sad to see it like this. It was the Original owners passion.
I'm 53 and went here in the 70s loads as we stayed in holiday park adjacent.... Took my kids too, lots of great memories... Unfortunately my kids won't be taking their kids..same the world over....online,digital has its place but as a kid , you need these interactions with the Real world...pity
Love the channel and the respect you show...well done guys.
It’s refreshing to see something abandoned that’s not been destroyed by vandals & graffiti.
They missed a trick in those toilets, not doing a picture of a turtle with its head poking out.
Ohhh what a walk down memory lane for the 2 of you.
I am in the US, sooo never had the pleasure of seeing this amazing place. It does make me sad to see the beautiful during days compared to what it is now. Too bad that it couldn’t have been repurposed & remaining structures utilized 😔 Thank you for taking us with you on this trip down memory lane, you guys are the best❤️
i remember feeding the canada geese as a kid. fond memories of this place.
Your videos are always incredible and hypnotic!!! Great job and thanks to bring to us this incredible places!!! A big fan from Barcelona
Good one..... thank you! Before-and-after shots are always interesting and I really like the inserts as to how this place looked when open. I hope you have this feature in future where available.
Awesome video, cheers for sharing i had a f'book memory pop up the other day from here. Took my kids many times, thought they had shut for deployment. What a shame, but lovely to remember the memories as you walked round. Thanks again for sharing
Great explore but sad to see the park in that condition, glad people are left with good memories of this place. Thank you.
Oh this was absolutely fantastic and to hear in your voice the magic of childhood memories that years later still gave such joyful enthusiasm to your chat about the place 💖 I loved the edited in videos of how an area was 👍 So sad to see it like that now, abandoned and overgrown but fortunately very little vandalism. I have memories of similar places visited as a child, too young then to know where now, my mother is no longer here to ask and my father too ill to even remember. This has Really brought back memories for me and sorrow at how life changes from such sweet precious childhood day trips out 😪💖 Thank you so much for this fabulous video 💖💖
Love that no one has destroyed this place. Nice adventures.
its nice you have been able to go to a place of your childhood.mine are sadly all but gone now.buildings pulled down and land built on.
So many memories here. It's heartbreaking to watch
Very interesting explore i wonder what happened to the animals loved it keep safe my friend xx
Would have loved some more information about why and when the park closed, what happened to all the animals, what plans if any there are for the land etc.
I was going to ask the same questions! This trip through an abandoned animal park reminds me of the zoo we have here in Tucson, AZ. It's not as much acreage but it is full of flora and fauna as well as different types of animals. It would be VERY sad to see our zoo abandoned like this, not only to the visitors but also to the different animals!
A lot of the animals got rehomed to other parks in the area. One day the land will probably have houses on them....no plans yet thou
It was shut down because as far as I'm aware the owners couldn't keep up with the upkeep and the constant changes needed for rules and regulations etc. All the animals, minus the wild ducks/birds were all re-homed either by local centres or places up the UK.
Thank you for this video, so sad to see the place gone to ruins.
That was fantastic it would have been a great place to see ❤😺Melbourne Australia
Lugar lindo! Q pena abandonado! Is beatifull
the huts were a dead give away!! lol.. lovely memories of going there as a kid myself!! great footage!!
Been to this place many times, so sad to see it now, lots of happy memories
Having worked here for 4 years as a zoo keeper its heart breaking seeing what a state its in now.
Which one is this
@@class-comedy-uk flamingo park which was renamed Seaview wildlife encounter
Just watched a couple of people's home videos on the place,such a shame it looked a great park to visit.
Brought back so many happy memories. Thank you.
Did you get as far as Wallaby Walkabout? It wasn't in your video, would have loved to see that part too.
Omg I kind of recognise this place from when I was a kid. Can’t remember for the life of me though where it was
I loved it when you reckon twelve years was a long time ago lol.
I visit places I went to as a kid over fifty years ago 😯
I love the artwork in the bathrooms!
I’m a big fan of your videos and just recently subscribed. Do you have any plans to explore more places on the Isle of Wight? Really connected with this video as I went here all the time as a kid and I know there’s plenty of abandoned places around the island generally
Good explore 👍👍
If you are ever in Suffolk, please let me know! I’d love to join you on one of your explorations! If that’s ok of course!
It's sad to see places like this that as kids we went to and not to be there for our kids to see. Here in the states most places like this have been demolished with new buildings or been so updated that the memories are now gone. So so sad.
Amazing place and video
Great video interesting place
That was one of the best walk arounds and made me think it would be a great set for a new crystal maze 😂
This looks likes it is going to be a brilliant watch 😊
I like the bats at 12:02
great place thanks 👍👍
I have visited so many times over the years and have some wonderful memories it is heartbreaking to see it so derelict
Great video and u sounded like u enjoyed doing that video so made us enjoy it more and it is a shame things like that close although I don’t believe any animal should be enclosed
I remember going there as eight year old great time so sad seeing it now big thumbs up for channel 🤗
Как можно довести такое красивое место в хлам.Очень интересное видео большое спасибо.
Shame on the wildlife park, you wonder where all the animals went to,, interesting stuff guys 👍🏻
Alot got rehomed to other "attractions" in the area
Great video once again
thanks great work from norfolk
Que lugar extraordinário
I bet it was a beautiful place at one time. Its still a pretty neat place
15:28 I admit it, I jumped LOL great vid!
One of your best👍
WOW PRITTY COOL BUD
Looks very familiar place from many years ago when I took the family but can’t place it.
So sad its out of use, you can just imagine how good it must've been... 🙁
Another great explore 👋🎃🤘
It is astounding once more how derelict a place can be after 5 years. Even though I have never been there I can imagine what a trip down memory lane it was for you. Once I found urbex pictures of a place that I used to know and that was already fascinating.
This places' website is still online, unfortunately however neither the gallery nor the park map seem to be functional anymore, but it was easy to find the place on google maps and I could locate some of the buildings I saw in the video and where most likely the owners live. On street view there's even a view from the entrance area from when it was operational. It seemed to me that looking from up above there is probably some more interesting stuff surrounding the park.
Awesome place. Shame it has closed down.
I jumped so much when you scared Lee
We had a zoo in the town where I lived as a child. The owner ran off with his mistress leaving his wife who then had a breakdown. By the time anyone realised the predicament, all the animals were dead. Such a tragedy.
That was well presented as usual and looked to have been a pretty place but I'm not a fan of so called 'wildlife parks' or zoos. I lived too long in Africa and enjoyed the animals in their natural environment. Glad it brought back memories for you though. Gill
I remember going there and feeding the ducks and fish when I was younger it's sad that it closed and now most probably going to be turned in to a housing
love the pictures on the toilet walls must have been distracting
KEEP STRONG 🏋🏻♂️💪🏻💓🎼🎼🎼🙏🏊♂️🏄♂️🏄♀️. Thank you for doing what you do. 💓🤦♂️ you are very observant.... Good thing...... not subservient.
I Live Near An Abandoned Zoo Called " The Zoo Of Wonders ¨
It Held Only 15 Animals:
Once You Enter The Entrance, You Will Find Giraffes, Zebras, Wildebeests, And Gazelles.
Then, You Will Go Straight And See Elks, Bisons, Pronghorn Antelopes, And Mountain Deers.
Then You Go Left And You Will See Kangaroos, Wallabies, Mule Deers, And Opossums.
And Finally, You Go To The Right And You Will See Tapirs, Capybaras, And Peccaries.
Fantastic video, is it in the area of Berkshire so sad seeing these places like this, would love to see you do a continent video, something different 👍
Without giving too much away its in the middle of a village about 5 miles from Bristol.
Thanks for that information anymore give clues to where they are
@@jmarshall6127 Westbury on trym. I first went there about 45 years ago, I find it hard to believe it hasn't been sold for housing development it must be worth millions it's in one of the nicest areas in Bristol.
There will be a lot more places like this soon , so sad ... great vid tho
Yup. 💪🏻💓
Its near where I live. Been closed a few years. Think someone in family died and they didn't want to carry in with it. Wanted to develop it. Real shame. I got picture of my son feeding the ducks there when he was 4. Hes 25 now. Opposite the cafe was a seating area and glass where you could see through to the pond. There were ordinary carp in there. I remember the bit they walked through was tropical world. There were birds and butterflies in there. There were never any otters.
I think otters actually where there but not long before it shut down
What was its name?
I'm eating and watching this!! 😋
Iits certainly is now a wildlife park i bet it was so strange to go back and see it like it is so so sad....
Was it busy in its early days because they would of been a lot of work to do all the scapes
I saw your sticker at Cornwall aha :)
Definitely TWD vibes! Love it
Gives me jurrasic park vibes especially that little pin that looks like a tiny orca pen
Really get the white matter thinking an abandoned place like that .
A local Scout Group could make so much of it .
Hope it dosn't get destroyed by the low lifes of this world , great video
Best regards Shaun .
Really sad...Ive just looked at my photos from there 5 years ago its almost unrecognisable from this video...
I live in the area that this is, and I used to absolutely love going, I wanted to share the joy of taking my daughter but she was far to young to enjoy going just before it shut. Such a shame I'm pretty sure another "attraction" in the area rehomed the wallabies if not a big portion of the other animals
Most went to Tapnell farm, west of Newport.
@@ChilledGamerUK yeah I didn't want to name it
Sad to see derelict and not in use any more when u said what was in here ?
I thought lets hope the croxs were no longer in the lake !!
Is a great place to film friday 13
somebody put alot of work and love into that place sad to see it like this
It is strange that none of the animal signs were still up. Presumably someone realized they had a collectable value on eBay or maybe an ex-keeper removed them as a souvenir.
I can’t remember for the life of me were this is, I remember my daughter been scared of the peacocks at the bottom of the park, got some great vids of this place, is it in Cornwall or the Isle of White
@The Bearded Explorer what is your intro music?
I'm sure its digital, but I love picturing a really talented percussionist and a string section.
It's called Our Destination by A K .
The waterfall in the cafe had a fake alligator in :)
Not trashed by vandals?? That's extremely unusual. What a waste.
Why was it closed?
How long has it been closed ?
Why did this place close? 😕
Hi
Where is it? what was it called?
Where is rosie the sharks tank?
Hate to say this but the people who own the park are trying to sell it for housing development so for people who know where it is time for a trip down memory lane.😔
Do you know who owns it? Could be a chance it could be saved to a point, got a few people that would want to use it as an Airsoft site
@@JurassicWorldBiology the owners are the Adams family (no joke) but you will probably need big full pocket's
Really cool place yeah some of the childhood places I went to in Florida unfortunately is apartments now. Or they got so heavily vandalized and damaged that they just bulldozed them. hey did you all have any elephants over there I think that one in the front look like maybe it was an elephant enclosure over there by the penguins I don't know it was pretty cool. Is that just like a zoo or was it also a water park cuz you mentioned that one place that had water in it. I was just wondering if that was like a water park lake a lazy river where you could just float around on tubes. That's the way some of our places are set up in the states so it get like two for one. it could be amusement park with a water park or it's like a zoo with a water park in it. I don't know if you've heard of places like Busch gardens of Tampa I believe there's one in West Virginia or Kings Dominion.
If someone had told you when you were there as a kid that years later you would be walking around it abandoned you wouldn't have believed them!
I'll like it this video because I can guarantee I will like it but I'll have a good watch when my backside actually has a minute to itself
Where is this place and what was it called
Hi guys. As much as I love Urban exploring myself, this land is still owned by friends of mine who live in the houses at the top of the park by the road. Since this video there have been multiple people coming in and causing damage which includes smashing of windows of some of the buildings as well as theft of equipment.
Please can you make it clear that this land is still accessed daily by the owners and CCTV cameras have now been installed.
They are really nice guys and hate to ruin the fun but there are so many legal issues that will pop up by entering the park and they will push for action to be taken if it continues.
Sorry to be a killjoy as like I said I myself am fully into exploring abandoned places. :)
Spongerider I will put your comment on the videos description so people will read it first, I haven’t given the location out and removing comments if other people do
@@TheBeardedExplorer Thank you so much!!! It really will be appreciated :)
What part in UK was that Please ?
@@petesilvers5053 🤫🤫🤫 we don't want everyone....we will sink
