The show, first filmed at Longleat in 2000, features the animals and keepers at the Safari Park as well as members of the Thynn family, who own the Estate. It has made household names of many of the animals at the Safari Park over the years.
Ceawlin Thynn, 8h Marquis of Bath, said, “It’s our privilege to share the lives of the animals in our care with the viewers of Animal Park, and everyone in the Longleat team is celebrating this award alongside the presenters, crew and production team. And, thank you to everyone who welcomes Ben, Kate, Hamza, Megan, the Longleat keepers and, of course, all the animals into your homes, to make Animal Park such a success.”
Longleat first welcomed camera crews to the safari park in 1967 when ‘The Lions of Longleat’ aired on BBC One to celebrate the (then) newly opened safari park. Today the Estate welcomes a million visitors each year, who enjoy the drive-through, walking and boat safaris as well as special animal experiences, events and tours of Longleat House.
