Saltwater Crocodile (Agro)

Saltwater Crocodile (Agro)

Adopt Agro

G’day, my name is Agro and I’m an impressive saltwater crocodile. I’m over 4.5 metres long and weigh more than 600 kilograms. Crikey! You might remember me from the original Crocodile Hunter series with Steve; I’m a seasoned TV star!

I got my name ‘Agro’ because, well, I can be very protective of my home – especially from lawnmowers. I have successfully defended my home against many blasted mowers during my lifetime.

I’ve been at Australia Zoo since 1988 and I came to be here because I was frequenting public areas, and seen as a ‘problem crocodile’. My fate may have been different if Steve didn’t rescue me and give me a luxury home and a free feed! It was here I met the love of my life, Cookie.

You can spot me enjoying my lake and sunbaking with my gorgeous girlfriend. Make sure you drop by and say g’day!

* Each guest pass is valid for a single day entry only, to be used within 12 months of adoption purchase. For Gold, Platinum and Ultimate adoptions, guest passes can be used for multiple single day entries for one person, or single day entries for up to the specified amount of people. For Gold or Platinum adoptions, if you are unable to use the included guest passes you can opt to swap the guest passes for a plush toy animal.

^ The encounter is subject to availability and must be pre-booked. Restrictions based on age, group size, and specific animals apply. Please note that encounters with some animals are not possible due to health and safety regulations (they include: saltwater crocodiles, tigers, elephants, snakes and iguanas); an alternative animal encounter will be substituted.

Please note: While all of the animals available for adoption are usually on display at the Zoo and/or participate in encounters, adopting an animal does not guarantee the chance of seeing or meeting them if visiting the Zoo. Animal availability is subject to change; there may be times when animals may be temporarily off display due to unforeseen circumstances, such as veterinary check-ups or habitat maintenance. If booking one of our amazing animal encounters to meet your adoptee, please advise staff of the animal you adopt at the time of booking.

Animal adoptions and associated elements are non-refundable, non-transferable and not redeemable for cash.

It is important to note that adopting an animal does not provide a company or organisation license to promote Australia Zoo across their channels. If you desire to include in advertising and/or collateral including your website, further discussions will be required. If interested, please let us know and we can organise a meeting. Thank you again for your support!

*Please allow up to 3 weeks for the delivery of your gift pack, if applicable.
