Wagga Zoo, Animal park in Turvey Park, Australia.
The Wagga Wagga Zoo houses native Australian wildlife and farm animals within the Botanical Gardens, featuring kangaroos, wombats, and a free-flight aviary with 300 birds.
The zoo started as a small animal sanctuary within the Wagga Wagga Botanical Gardens and has expanded to include both native and non-native species over several decades.
The facility serves as an educational center where visitors learn about Australian wildlife conservation and the role of animals in the local ecosystem.
Guests can visit the zoo from Thursday through Monday between 9 AM and 4 PM, with extended opening hours during school holidays and free admission.
The zoo maintains a colonial-style Budgerigar Aviary complete with a functional windmill and water tower, reflecting traditional Australian architectural elements.
