New lemur enclosure coming to wildlife park

Curraghs Wildlife Park has announced it's building a new enclosure for one of its well-loved species.

It comes following an emotional year for the facility - with a fatal fire taking place in April, which completely destroyed the enclosure and claimed the life of two gentle lemurs - Georgia and Nina.

However, in July the park then welcomed it's newest addition - 'Phoenix' a baby gentle Lemur. 

In a post on social media this morning staff announceed 'the re-build of the enclosure is planned, and the building is in production so will be here on site soon.'

It also confirmed Phoenix 'is growing up quick', and will be out to play when the nicer weather arrives.
