A former newspaper columnist and animal behavior specialist shares the story of his family's move in 2006 to an unusual new home: a wildlife park in the English countryside, where a menagerie of Siberian tigers, African lions, brown bears and other animals awaited them.

Benjamin Mee, a former newspaper columnist and owner of the Dartmoor Wildlife Park zoo.
