The British Ironwork Centre is home to The Extinction Trail, a large open area of the site that contains a wide range of metal sculptures depicting some of the worlds most endangered animal species. Sadly, many of the worlds most incredible animals are under a constant threat to their survival, caused by the effects of an expanding human population. Whether this be through poaching, deforestation or global climate change, humans are having a devastating effect on our wildlife. In a bid to raise awareness of the needs of these magnificent animals, we have created the Extinction Trail as a form of ethical zoo, to bring attention to the needs of these animals and what we can do to help prevent them from extinction without keeping them in captivity. The trail is the first of its kind in the UK and has been inspired by the incredible work that Extinction Rebellion do across the world to raise awareness over the world’s extinction crisis. https://en-gb.facebook.com/TheBritishIronworkCentre/ British Ironwork Centre – What’s on https://www.britishironworkcentre.co.uk/show-areas/whats-on British Ironwork Centre – Membership Become a member Free to enter with a membership.
