Crikey! It's as WILD AS LIFE GETS at Australia Zoo's open-range exhibit - Africa, where you can see the only multi species exhibit in Queensland.
Step on board the FREE Africa Safari Shuttle to experience the only Giraffe and Zebra in Queensland and keep your eyes peeled for our growing Rhino herd!
Steve's dream was to build an African Safari Park, where animals roam free in open plains and state of the art walk-through enclosures; where the public can watch these animals interact as they would in the wild; and where people can have their own unique experiences with these wonderful animals.
You can see one of our Giraffe as they graze the Savannah and use their amazing blue tongues pull leaves from the trees. Be mesmerised as they gracefully explore Africa right in front of your eyes!
Taking visitors on a journey to the African Savannah of Australia Zoo, we will showcase the only active breeding group of Rhinos in Queensland - our first calf was born here in April 2012 - in a replica of the exotic animals' natural habitat - all part of the African experience.
Africa is right here in your own back yard. So come on - go WILD with us!
