THE ULTIMATE ANIMAL-LOVERS’ EXPERIENCE

Our Keeper for a day experience is the ultimate experience for any animal enthusiast.

Get up close to a wide variety of animals, both exotic and native, as you spend the day walking in the footsteps of a zookeeper feeding, interacting with, and learning all about some of the world’s most amazing wildlife.

You will work side-by-side with our dedicated zookeepers and assist in daily tasks which may include cleaning animal habitats, animal food and enrichment preparation, coming behind the scenes for exclusive access to some of our conservation breeding programs, and, of course, up-close encounters with a variety of wildlife.

Animal interactions may include red pandas, meerkats, koalas, echidnas, kangaroos, farmyard animals, various birds, reptiles and so much more.

This exclusive experience will create memories to last a lifetime and promote positive actions towards protecting vulnerable and endangered species.
