Wallaroo Petting Zoo*

Wallaroo Station offers many hands on exhibits. You can feed and pet the goats in the Goat Yard, walk with wallabies, feed a bright orange Koi or take ride on a pony or llama.







Bushland Budgies*

Located in Wallaroo Station is Bushland Budgies, a unique interactive free-flight aviary allowing Zoo guests the opportunity to feed hundreds of small Australian parrots known as "Budgies."






Lorikeet Landing*

Full of brightly colored birds, Lorikeet Landing offers a thrilling experience for Zoo-goers. These birds will land on you and if you purchase nectar, they will eat out of a small cup as you hold it.





Stingray Bay*

Don't be afraid, be delighted as these slippery stingrays brush under your fingertips. Smooth and silky to the touch, the sting rays will come over to the side of their pool so you can touch and feed them. Watch out-- you might get splashed!


Stingray Bay is currently closed for the Winter. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

*Please Note: Animal feeding opportunities are contingent on both animal appetites and dietary needs. Feedings may be halted without notice.
