Animal Encounters
Guys and gals, it's time to throw out your old ideas about the ultimate zoo experience. No longer must you sit on the sidelines while our animal keepers have all the fun! Gone are the days of watch, listen and learn. It's time to get amongst it and get involved.
Care to relax on the grass while hand-feeding some hungry wombats, or strut your stuff with the rebels of Aussie wildlife? You can take a walk on the wild side with one of our majestic tigers, enjoy some dingo kisses, hand-feed a giant tortoise and much more! Where else in the world can you experience so much hands-on wildlife action in one day? Australia Zoo is right at the forefront of wildlife conservation for a reason - we're on a mission to make you fall in love with our amazing animals!
