We've snail-ed it!

Edinburgh Zoo Discovery & Learning building

25 Jun 2026

13:00 - 14:00

Price(s): Adult/child/Member/Patron £5

Join Craig, one of our Senior Animal Keepers, as he talks about the perilous plight of Partula snails and the vital conservation work that has helped bring them back from the brink of extinction.  

The talk will last approximately 45 minutes, followed by an opportunity to ask questions and learn more.  

Although maybe not the first animal you think of as important, snails are an essential part of our planet’s ecosystems. Join us for an amazing slime-time, you might even leave shell-shocked!

Please note this talk will take place in the lecture theatre in our Discovery & Learning building at Edinburgh Zoo.
