Our mission is to change how people see wolves, to inspire, to educate, to protect.
Predator Park was founded on a passion for wildlife, for conservation and for challenging the stories we have been told.
For centuries, predators have been feared, misrepresented and driven to the edge of survival. But they are not villains. They are vital. Our mission is to change how people see them, to educate, to inspire and to protect.
It all started with a boy watching a falconry display, eyes filled with wonder. That boy grew up to become one of our founders, Daniel, whose journey took him from training birds of prey to walking with wolves. Alongside Dee, whose love for nature and conservation runs deep in her roots, they built Predator Park into what it is today, a place where people and predators can connect in the most natural way possible.
With over 70 years of combined animal experience, their team is dedicated to the highest standards of care, education and animal welfare. Every animal encounter is built around the animal’s needs first. Every moment is meaningful and magical.
A home for the future
Now in its second decade, Predator Park has grown from humble beginnings to a permanent destination, shaped around respect for wildlife, every step has been guided by one belief:
Wildlife should move naturally. Behave naturally. Be experienced naturally.
Predator Park is a sanctuary where people witness the beauty and intelligence of predators in an environment that honours their instincts.
Wolf welfare
Predator Park is one of few fully licensed zoos in Cumbria, inspected and regulated by Westmorland & Furness Council. But we are not a zoo in the traditional sense.
We focus on psychological as well as physical welfare. Natural enrichment is key to our care. Our wolves live in a way that reflects their true nature, and are proud to meet the highest ethical standards of animal welfare.
Join us and discover the wild.
