DO YOU HAVE AN ANIMAL LOVER OR BUDDING zoologIST AT HOME? 

Join us before we open to the public and watch Orana Wildlife Park wake up for the day! 

Activities include farmyard animal feed, making enrichment for a native or exotic species, watch the keepers give this enrichment to the animals, a private safari shuttle ride, and a private giraffe encounter.  Our experienced education team will also take you to visit some of our amazing animals, and give you an insight into what it takes to run a modern zoo. 

Please Note: We have a hands-off approach when working with the species in our care, therefore, physical contact with animals does not form part of this experience.
