About Teaching Talons (The Animal Ambassadors)

Teaching Talons provide educational animal encounters at a variety of events and locations. Classing ourselves as 'Edutainment', we have never received a bad review and pride ourselves on high animal welfare standards.

With our fantastic collection of friendly, exotic, and companion animals, Teaching Talons can attend a whole variety of occasions including- but not limited to schools, birthday parties, care homes, private or public events, corporate events, and team building, clubs, and more to add that special something! We even offer phobia cure sessions with a qualified therapist!

Our animals include owls, reptiles, mammals, amphibians, and giant invertebrates (creepy crawlies!) and bookings can be tailored if your event has a theme (for example Halloween, Easter, Christmas, Harry Potter, and more!).

If you have a child who is animal mad, if you are looking for an inspiring presentation or workshop, or you’re looking for an unusual, educational, attention-grabbing feature for your event or party- look no further!

We provide our own risk assessments and are fully licensed and insured (as well as qualified in animal care!). So sit back, relax and let us bring the zoo to you!

Amazing day and staff were brilliant

We loved having teaching talons for our residents Christmas party, the residents were in love with all the animals. we didnt quite as many residents to see the animlas as there was no time to take chip too see the bed bound residents but this aside, we have already said we want to book them again and are already looking at dates for the new year. fabulous day, fabulous staff and gorgeous animals

Hi Frances, thank you ever so much for taking the time to leave us such a lovely review! Yes, it was a really wonderful afternoon and we had a great time meeting everyone and introducing them to the animals. Everyone engaged and enjoyed themselves and were very brave with the more unusual critters. Hopefully we will make it over the road on our next visit, so we can see more residents- the time flew! Thanks again and have a great Christmas, Becky

Would highly recommend!

We booked Teaching talons for my son’s 7th birthday and we had a few 3/4 year olds present too. I can’t recommend the whole experience enough! Becky and Yaz were just brilliant with all the children, kept them really engaged and the range of animals and the level of interaction the children could have with them was great. Adults and children were equally captivated! Brilliant, fun and educational party. Thank you so much Teaching Talons!

Fantastic event

Amazing event for a summer party at my childminding setting. Everyone had smiles in their faces and were in awe of all the wonderful animals. It was delightful the way Teaching Talons staff worked with all age groups of children from babies to 10 year olds and adults. Thank you so much I will definitely be booking for next year soon and make this an annual event.

Hi Catherine, Thank you so much for taking the time to review us. It's very much appreciated and great to read! It's always important to be flexible when there are a wide range of ages present and more challenging, so it is wonderful that you felt we managed and pitched it well! Great to see the babies giggling away at the animals antics and having the older children up to hold the owl, cuddle the rats, pet the dog and more! Definitely some future animal keepers amongst them! We look forward to working with you again next year. Becky

Amazing show with great Harry Potter link

We had a Harry Potter pack holiday with our brownies and this just fitted so well with it. We saw and held scanners, Ron’s owl pidqwigeon and the dog at the end was so fun using our wands!

Fantastic service, Becky and team were AMAZING

Well what I can even say to sum up teaching talons! They arrived at the agreed time and set up in our home. The guests were 12 4/5 year olds and they loved every second of it, they each got to learn shout different animals and hold various creatures! Everyone was smiling ear to ear, they all got to hold an owl, which was a highlight for all kids. Becky was so lovely and knowledgeable, amazing with the kids , entertaining and energetic. Our party theme was dinosaurs and Becky and the team tailored the animals to this, they even bought chip the gorgeous dog who was revealed at the end wearing a Dino costume. The kids LOVED it. Could not recommend enough, what a great business we’ll definitely use again - certainly beats anotherr hall party!!
