Port Lympne Wild Animal Park - On Television

On Television

Neil Buchanan went to visit Port Lympne to do a big Art Attack of one of the animals he saw. He drew a tiger, an ape, a lion, giraffes, and a hippo. This was shown from Series 12-16. The BBC children's television series Roar was filmed at Port Lympne and Howletts, and was broadcast on BBC Two and the CBBC channel. The programmes went behind the scenes at the two parks, following the keepers as they tended to the animals. Two series of Roar have been broadcast to date. The first was filmed in summer 2006, the second in summer and autumn 2007.
