Twycross Zoo, has probably the biggest and most diverse collection of monkeys in the UK. Others too. Not sure about any other zoos in this region. Not large ones anyway

Sorry, but i only put Twycross as you said East midlands - Chester isnt in the east midlands. No, twycross dosnt have any snakes, they have one lizard. Not very good for reptiles at all. There's west midlands safari park - their reptile house is fairly small, but managed very well, and looks great.

i went to twycross 3 times to try and see the reps and was bitterly dissapointed when i got to see them. The website said they had loads but they have a teeny tiny amount

What about the West Midlands safari park? I love the Mark O'Shea reptile house there!
