If you made it down to join in the fun at Zoocoustics this past weekend, you'll know what a stellar setting our beautiful site is for events. Who doesn't want to see the primates up to their monkey antics on the islands whilst enjoying a family filled day with every desire catered for? We loved sharing our big backyard so much with locals such as yourself, that we are putting on a Halloween family event for all - Boo at the Zoo!

We may not have leaves turning orange and falling to the ground as a traditional American Halloween and fall holiday portrays but we sure do have large, orange-coloured giraffes doing just that! If you haven't seen it online or on the news, we hope you've popped in to see the new additions in real life. Just two weeks ago we had two giraffe calves born into our breeding herd, which is now 13 individuals strong.
Remember we do mates rates for local residents to Dubbo, Narromine, Wellington and Gilgandra - it's not every day we have four giraffe calves under four months old!
