Large walk-through habitat exhibits, aviaries, special nocturnal exhibits and walking paths through Australian bush habitats provide opportunities to view many native animals during your visit. In addition to general animal viewing, Meet the Keeper presentations are a great way to find out more about Australian wildlife from the people who really know the animals.

Meet the Keeper presentations are scheduled every day. From iconic species such as koalas and kangaroos, to threatened species such as Tasmanian Devils, our inspirational keepers share their unique knowledge and insight into the animals they care for. Learn about the Australian environment and how you can help to conserve wildlife and habitats.
