How Huddersfield zoologist is helping children learn to love scary and unusual animals

An unusual Huddersfield business that gives people a chance to get close up and personal with exotic and even scary animals has been honoured nationally.
Loulabelle’s Jungle, based in Milnsbridge, won highly commended in the best animal related business at the Animal Star Awards.
It was set up in 2022 by Louise Steven who was working as a manager in an exotic animal rescue centre and the aim is to give people a chance to see animals close-up that they’d never normally get near.
