STAFF at West Midland Safari Park have a fun-filled 2017 planned for their visitors, with brand new events, some exciting new arrivals and the chance to meet last year’s babies.

The park’s busy events calendar has been updated to include four new exciting conservation weeks, where guests will get the chance to take part in unique VIP experiences, enter competitions to win some amazing money-can’t-buy prizes and learn just what they can do to help, even from the comfort of their own sofa.

This year, the park will be hosting Protect Lemurs Week from March 11-19, Protects Bats Week from May 6-14 and Protect Lions Week from June 17-25. There will also be Rhino Week for May half term, to support Save the Rhino International.

As well as the new events, guests can come face-to-face with the newest arrivals at the Park - 2016’s babies! Ekozu, the southern white rhino calf, 14 African painted dog pups and giraffe calves

Embu and Emali, will be out and about on the reserves, ready to meet guests.

As well as the new animal arrivals, another new family is set to arrive this year in February half term. Quetzalcoatlus was a ginormous pterosaur, with a wing span of up to 11m, making it the largest creature to have ever taken to the skies and three of these giants will be making the park their home this year.

The South Wales Argus has teamed up with the West Midland Safari Park to offer to two lucky winners a family pass (maximum of four people). This pass will be valid until November 3, 2017, and cannot be used on bank holidays. To be in with a chance of winning, just answer the following question: What animal has a wing span up to 11m?
