Either port lympne or Hewlett are really good. Both owned by aspinall. Do a lot of conservation and return to the wild of endangered species.
My favourite wildlife parks

Howletts makes the journey slightly longer so looking at Port Lympne as my autistic son doesn’t ‘do’ waiting in the car! Is there anything you have to queue for once your inside?

It is great. No queues although we booked a safari in advance, not sure of on the day availability. It is on a steep hill so the walk back up can be a bit of a bugger.

Ah thanks for that, my son does not like anything too taxing! Is it a hill that you stop on it literally a walk straight up?

There are animals to see all the way down the hill and then all the way back up (different ones) so you can meander and break it up. There are golf buggies but not sure if they are for guests only or you can hire them
