The Harbourside is one of the best places to start, with Bristol Aquarium and the multi- award winning At-Bristol Science Centre. At-Bristol is one of the UK’s leading interactive science centres with more than 300 hands-on exhibits, live science shows and areas to get creative. One of the most exciting features is Animate It! developed in collaboration with the Oscar-winning Aardman Animations - the makers of the world-famous Wallace & Gromit films whose studios are based in Bristol - to give children the chance to be an animator for the day. The stunning silver orb of At-Bristol’s planetarium has become an iconic part of Millennium Square and is the UK’s only digital 3D planetarium. Across the water you’ll find M Shed, the free-to-enter museum that tells the history of Bristol through the memories and stories of the people who have lived here. Interactive exhibits and the family-friendly café are open year-round, also look out for rides on the museum’s working exhibits – the steam train, world’s oldest tug boat and electric cranes – which operate at certain times of year. It’s just a short ferry ride along the river to the multi award-winning Brunel’s ss Great Britain.

  • Press Release
    PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Press Contacts: Jennifer Zacharias, JZPR (805) 886-9078 or [email protected] SANTA BARBARA ZOO’S GIRAFFE & AMUR LEOPARD PREPARE TO DEPART AS PART OF CRITICAL SPECIES SURVIVAL PLAN Zoo will also welcome new Amur leopard and baby giraffes this spring (March 6, 2020) Santa Barbara, CA - T he Santa Barbara Zoo will soon bid farewell to Amirah, their almost two-year-old female Masai giraffe, and Wyatt, their seven-year-old male Amur leopard, as part of their ongoing work to support two of the A ssociation of Zoos and Aquariums ’s (AZA) Species Survival Plans. The Species Survival Plan (SSP) was developed in 1981 by the AZA to help ensure the survival of selected species in zoos and aquariums, many of which are threatened or endangered in the wild. Amirah, born at the Santa Barbara Zoo on March 14, 2018 to Audrey and Michael, will depart on March 10, 2020 (just shy of her second birthday) for the Sacramento Zoo . Giraffes typically become independent of their mothers around two years old and become mature enough to breed at three or four years old. "Over the last few months as we’ve prepared for her departure, we’ve really noticed her personality come alive, and she has become more independent and brave, trying new things without her mom nearby,” shared Cassie Moews, Senior Keeper. While she is still too young to breed right now, Amirah will have a breeding recommendation in the future. Amirah’s father Michael is the most genetically valuable Masai giraffe in the AZA North America population.

Following intensive conservation efforts, the free-living population is now estimated to be 470 individuals. However, due to the population bottleneck the species remains at risk of extinction due to genetic loss and inbreeding depression. A 5 European captive population was established in 1977 and a European Endangered Species Program (EEP) was formalized in 1992.
