Getting there

Find out at Featherdale

At Featherdale Wildlife Park, students can sit in on lively lessons at our

Education Amphitheatre and gain some real animal insight…and while our

fully qualified Education Officers might not be able to teach you how to talk

to the animals, they will show you how to better understand and interact

with our unique native inhabitants.

Book a kooka, a koala or a kangaroo…

We have friends at Featherdale who could bring a real Aussie flavour

to your corporate events. Invite a koala, a kangaroo joey, wombat,

kookaburra, lizard, snake or even a tawny frogmouth along to liven things

up and make your occasion unforgettable.

Contact [email protected] for more information, a quote

and an update on animal availability (after all, some of our residents are

fussy about paying visits during certain seasons).
