Wombats can be pushy, they are able to reach speeds of up to 40km/hr and can use their hard plated rump to crush the skull of intruders against the burrow roof.
Twilight Safari
Twilight Safari is a great way for your students to learn about animals and the environment whilst exploring the Zoo after the sun goes down. Listen out for lions roaring and see giraffe illuminated against the city skyline.
Your students will:
- Enjoy a great BBQ dinner and supper under the stars.
- Discover wild creatures on an evening Zoo walk.
- Get close to amazing mammals and a whole lot of other Zoo residents with a lesson in the Education Centre.
Twilight Safari is available on Monday to Thursday nights during the school term. We book a minimum of 20 students and a maximum of 60 for each program.
