ISEKI’s partnership with Jimmy’s Farm & Wildlife Park: We are thrilled to announce our collaboration with Jimmy’s Farm & Wildlife Park, at Wherstead near Ipswich, owned by television presenter and farmer, Jimmy Doherty. Iseki UK & Ireland has provided an ISEKI TLE3410 HST Tractor for use in multiple roles around the Park.
This collaboration contributes to the ‘Big Bear Rescue’ initiative, their most ambitious project yet, involving the rescue of polar bear Ewa, who has recently arrived safely at Jimmy’s Farm following the closure of the overseas zoo where she was previously living. Jimmy’s Farm & Wildlife Park has now become the largest polar bear reserve in Europe. Additionally, a European brown bear named Diego will be moving to Jimmy’s Farm in May of next year.
ISEKI’s partnership with Jimmy’s Farm & Wildlife Park
Jimmy’s Farm is dedicated to promoting an understanding of the natural world and inspiring future generations to safeguard our planet. The need to conserve our planet, habitats, and both indigenous and exotic wildlife has never been greater. To tackle this, Jimmy’s Farm has established an official charity called Space for the Wild.
Space for the Wild will make significant strides towards environmental protection. It plans to establish habitats, advocate for regenerative farming, and rescue and rehabilitate wildlife.
The TLE3410 is a very capable 40hp, 4WD hydrostatic compact tractor. The spacious operator’s platform ensures operator comfort and allows for excellent visibility whilst working. With a rear lift capacity of 1000kg and a double acting auxiliary hydraulic service, the addition of an optional ISEKI-MX loader creates a versatile package ideally suited to work around smallholdings, farms, estates, stables, sportsgrounds and wildlife parks.
Stevie Sheppard, the Park Director, said, ‘The TLE3410 is a great tractor and very useful to us in the day-to-day operation of our farm. Amongst other jobs, it assists us in feeding Ewa the polar bear and the arctic wolves. The operators like it and find it easy and comfortable to operate.’
