Zootastic 5!

17th May 2012

“ZOOTASTIC – 5” is a brand new wildlife encounter at Cairns Tropical Zoo.
This special experience will give you the opportunity to interact with our top five favourites.

Imagine you will be in with the wildlife, feeding, patting, holding – plus taking photos and hearing all about their quirky habits.

It is interactive, informative and a whole lot of fun plus you are in the safe hands of one of our experienced Wildlife team while you feed and handle like an expert.

Our favourite five activities may include – Koalas (feeding, cuddling & photo) Wombats, Cassowary feeding, Pole feeding the Crocodiles, holding an Alligator, Snake or Lizard, plus feeding our colourful native birds and some very special time with the Lemurs in their enclosure – you’ll have them eating out of your hand.

This experience runs for 1 hour and is great value @ $125.oo per person with a maximum of four (4) participants. It includes entrance to the Cairns Tropical Zoo, Zootastic 5 Experience & Souvenir Koala Cuddle photo.

Zootastic 5 is on daily at 9.30am and must be pre-booked by 5.00pm the day before.
