Why it's Wildland
5.1A compact zoo in Cromer built around South and Central American wildlife, with a tropical house featuring spectacled caiman, green anaconda and leafcutter ants.
A distinctly themed wildlife attraction rather than a wild landscape: the South American focus and tropical house give a visit a clear point of difference. It is not a substitute for seeing wildlife in its natural habitat.
