PEOPLE planning a trip to West Midland Safari Park will be able to enjoy some new attractions including the distinctive African wild hounds.

But the wild pooches are not the only new addition to Worcestershire's park.

They are joined by water buffalo, bantengs (Indian cows) and black bucks (Indian antelope).

And those who are looking forward to an adventurous Easter can also enjoy driving through an African elephant reserve.

The park, located on the A456 between Kidderminster and Bewdley, is open seven days a week from 10am to 4pm on weekdays and until 5pm at weekends and school holidays. Tel: 01299 400700.
