Toad Hall opens at WWT Slimbridge Wetland Centre


WWT Slimbridge Wetland Centre today opened Toad Hall, the latest in a series of new developments, to visitors.

Visitors can join Slimbridge's very own toad keeper each day to meet frogs, toads, newts and salamanders including the very grumpy Mr Custard, an American Bullfrog with attitude.

The indoor attraction is home to all seven native species of amphibian, several non native species which have been introduced to the island and a selection of interesting amphibians from around the world from the colourful but deadly Poison Arrow Frogs to the unique Axolotl, a rare newt which remains as a giant tadpole all of its life.

Jools Mackin, marketing manager said 'We are delighted to open this marvellous indoor attraction for our visitors. Toad Hall is a hugely entertaining addition to the visitor experience at Slimbridge and highlights the important role amphibians play in the world'.

Toad Hall is open every day, except Christmas day, as part of a visit to Slimbridge Wetland Centre.
