Kate enjoys a festive, interactive experience with animals to raise awareness about conservation and extinction.
- Caversham Wildlife Park, just 40 minutes from Perth’s CBD, is home to over 200 species and 2,000 native Australian animals, making it WA’s largest privately-owned collection of wildlife.
- Visitors can enjoy up-close experiences like feeding kangaroos, cuddling koalas, and also meet dingoes, penguins, quokkas, wombats, and over 50 species of reptiles during daily animal presentations.
- The park focuses on raising awareness about conservation and extinction, helping families create lasting memories while inspiring a deeper connection to wildlife and the importance of protecting it.
- Interactive experiences at Caversham have been shown to motivate visitors to learn more about Australia’s extinction crisis and engage in conservation efforts.
- Caversham operates without government funding, relying solely on visitor support, and offers a unique gift option — symbolic animal adoptions, which help contribute to the care of these beautiful creatures.
- With fun activities like a farm show, interactive farmyard, and opportunities to meet native animals, Caversham Wildlife Park is the perfect festive outing for families to enjoy and support this Christmas season.
