The East Border Region has a marvellous variety of wildlife centres packed with rare and fascinating wildlife and flora. The centres can be found on mountains, along the sea shore, around beautiful Loughs and on remote islands. Children can also come face to face with sharks and giant conger eels in great tanks and see seals being fed at wonderful aquariums, meet baby animals at open farms and delight in dazzling tropical butterfly farms.
