Wildlife enjoy festivities

As part of the holiday festivities, Australia Zoo has treated its resident wildlife to an array of special activities and enrichments, making this Christmas season extra festive for our beautiful animals.

It’s double the excitement at the zoo with the reopening of the Crocoseum, where guests can enjoy our majestic saltwater crocodiles and marvel at our gorgeous birds soaring through the sky.

Robert Irwin said, “We are thrilled to celebrate the Christmas season with our special wildlife family here at Australia Zoo. With the grand reopening of the Crocoseum, we can’t wait to celebrate with everyone as we enter the new year.”

“We love connecting guests with our beautiful wildlife that resides at the Zoo, while educating more people about the plight of many species in the wild, shining light on how we can work together to make the world a better place for wildlife and wild places,” said Robert.

Australia Zoo has an action-packed holiday season planned with plenty of fun activities such as a giant 6-metre high waterslide, colouring competition, a fun adventure trail, major prize draw, and the chance to win a Camper Trailer from Austrack Campers.

Australia Zoo is open every day during the holiday season, except Christmas Day.

From December 26 – January 5, watch the Irwin family feed the crocodiles in the Containers for Change Crocoseum, celebrating Steve Irwin’s ultimate favourite animal!
