The first Uk safari park was Longleat which opened in the 1960's and concentrated on lions. Other safari parks followed suit some specialising in other animals such as bears. Unfortunately one famous safari park Windsor has closed and was taken over by Legoland. Safari Parks differ from zoo's in that they normally have fewer species of animal, normally the larger more dramatic animals in large enclosures. Instead of viewing the animals through cages you view the animals either in a car or coach in there enclosures.
