Introduction and Live Animal Presentation: Start the day in the amphitheatre with your own exclusive live animal presentation. Meet a selection of five animals ranging from possums, lizards, snakes, reptiles, birds, and alligators. Please note that animals may differ from day to day, and while we endeavour to include as many animals in the presentation as possible, our primary responsibility is to ensure that animals and students are safe and comfortable, and we may elect to exclude an animal from the presentation at the Ranger’s discretion if it becomes distressed or agitated.

- Lower Walk: Get up close and meet farmyard animals – goats, chickens, roosters, sheep, llamas and guinea pigs – as well as dingos, wedge-tailed eagles, ring tailed lemurs, echidnas, wombats, Tasmanian devils and MORE! On this walk students can also get up close and personal with kangaroos and wallabies in an interactive zone.
