Trivia: Zoological Stations

[61653 HTAFC]

Following on from the threads on Fruity Stations and Stations that could be names, how about Stations with animals in their names? A quick search didn't find anything though I could have missed something.

Here's a few to get started:
Foxfield
Catford (and Catford Bridge)
Batley
Porthmadog
Brockholes (Brock being an archaic word for badger, the village being named for the many badger setts in the area).

Bonus points for the most cringeworthy forced puns...
