Interesting Australia Zoo Facts
The Australian zooIn Brisbane is the best known in Australia due to its founderPresent Steve Irwin. He is a living legend with his legendary commitment and work in Australian nature conservation and wilderness. After Steve Irwin died in 2006, his work in the Australian zoo continued by his wife Terri, his children, Bindi and Robert and many pride Wildlife Warriors.
Almost 600 people actively take care of endangered Australian animals and schools and support many local and international animal welfare projects. At the Australia Zoo website you can also learn fascinating life story via Steve Irwins As a big wildlife warrior.
How to get to the Australian zoo
The Australian zoo is located in Beerwah80 km north of Brisbane and 25 km from the sunshine coast. You can catch the train from Brisbane to Landsborough or if you prefer to be independent and use a car, it is a one -hour drive from Brisbane and the sunshine coast.

The official Australia Zoo website offers all daily shows and schedule information. You can also put together and print out your travel route. On your website you can also get to know all nature conservation projects on how to take an animal, donate and make a difference in the world.
As Steven Irwin said: “We do not have the planet Earth; we are part of it. And we have to share it with our wildlife.”
How much time do you have to visit?
I would plan at least 6-8 hours. If you only have half a day, you have to select the areas because you cannot fit everything in 4 hours. Therefore, I may recommend on weekdays.
The entrance tickets
The Australian zoo tickets are not inexpensive. Individual entrance tickets cost 59.00 AUDBut there are discounts for families, students and the elderly. If you are planning your Australian holidays in South Queensland, it is worth visiting the Australian zoo in your trip.

With your visit, they contribute to enjoying and protecting the Australian wildlife of Australia.
One of the main reasons why international visitors come to Australia is to see their unique local animals, but the chances of recognizing them in the wild are limited. The Australian zoo is a great opportunity to learn about Australian wild animals.
What you can expect from the experience of the Australian zoo
I visited the Australian zoo on the Anzac Day. On this holiday, the Australian zoo is only open for 4 hours in the afternoon. I was not aware of how big the zoo is, but by looking at the zook card, I soon realized that I had to make a choice and choose some of the areas.
Show the wildlife Warriors
I was glad I was that The Australia Zoo Wildlife Warriors Show was planned for this day in the crocosis. This is the best. You will experience the unique and impressive interaction of the wildlife Warriors with animals, float and see colorful birds over the arena Under -groomed heron and birds of prey stormed on food.
The Croc show
But this is just the beginning of the show. The highlight of the crozese is that Croc ShowThe fantastic interaction during Feeding of salt water crocodiles. The Irwin, Terri and Bindi family are the main protagonists with a beautiful crew of wildlife warriors. I recommend planning a whole day in the Australian zoo to make the best of your visit and have the time to see everything. If you only have a few hours, make sure you don’t miss this great show!
The Croc show Is the hit this zoo. It usually takes place every day; To Anzac dayIt was planned shortly after the opening. At the time of your visit, you should take a better look at the schedules on the Australia Zoo website. Unfortunately, the photos cannot convey the excitement. A video is probably the best medium to bring the atmosphere to life. The music, the dance, the performance of the wildlife Warriors and Bindi’s courage and enthusiasm are precious. After Steve Irwin’s footprints, Bindi was actively involved in her father’s work with her mother Terri. Bindi’s adventure and the wild encounters she had was touched.
What animals will you see in the Australian zoo?
I had to make a choice; I hurried from one place to the next. I absolutely wanted to see the Wombats, my preferred Australian bag animal, which is not so easy to see in the wild. I only saw it in Tasmania a few times. Some huge wombats strolled around in the green fields; Below you can see a photo of a cute little Wombat.
From there I hurried to the wetlands to see some beautiful birds and came across the Echidna house, where they held a show. I spent the rest of my time walking around and taking photos of beautiful red and gray kangaroos and cute wallabies. Kangaroos are the joy of thousands of children “and adults who visit the Australian zoo every year. They are beautiful animals, are happy to be fed by hand and pose for a photo with you! While approaching kangaroos, they know that they know a few simple rules to feed them while respecting their privacy.
The Roo Himmel ruled
As I said, while visiting the Australia Zoo, you will come across several boards with great information about Australian locals at risk of animals or species that are threatened in the world. Here you will find one how you can save the parrot of the world. You can find more information on the Australia Zoo website. There are several great shops in the Australian zoo in which you can buy all types of souvenirs. Some are also unique in this place and it is also an excellent chance to browse and see if you can find something you like to take home.

Do not leave the Australian zoo without immortalizing yourself through a photo with Irwin’s family bronze sculpture at the entrance. Other sculptures are scattered in the area of zoo, including the crocodile sculpture for the joy of children and more areas where you can take funny photos.
