About Us

Home to over 3000 exotic and native animals, Adelaide Zoo is a tranquil green oasis spread over 8 hectares of beautiful botanic grounds in the city centre and chock full of unique things to see and do. ‘Get Within a Whisker’ with a unique Animal Experience like Meeting Obi! Endangered in the wild, Obi is one of the Zoo’s quirkier characters and its only pygmy hippo! Or, join the keeper in a Cockatoo Encounter and get up close and personal with some new feathered friends like Australia’s Palm and Red-Tail Black Cockatoos.
