Show must go on at Wildlife Park

Attraction opens again after fire

It's thought an electrical fault is to blame for a serious fire at Curraghs Wildlife Park on Thursday night.

Keepers are still coming to terms with the incident, which left two critically endangered baby lemurs missing and presumed killed.

The blaze cruelly coincided with the end of Manx Wildlife Week, which saw a series of talks and activities planned for the park.

But staff have agreed to reopen as normal today.

Park Manager Kathleen Graham says it's been an upsetting time.
