Kyabram Fauna Park, Wildlife park in Victoria, Australia
Kyabram Fauna Park is a wildlife facility spread across 55 hectares (135 acres) in Victoria with pathways guiding visitors past enclosures featuring native Australian animals including kangaroos, emus, and koalas. The grounds are organized into different zones, each housing one or more species, with trails designed to allow visitors to explore at their own pace and discover animals in spaces that resemble their natural habitats.
The park began in 1976 as a local wildlife sanctuary and expanded over the following decades into a larger facility. This gradual growth brought improvements to animal care, enclosure design, and the range of species housed at the location.
Visitors can watch staff caring for animals during daily routines, including feeding times that show how each species eats and behaves in its habitat. The park encourages people to spend time observing rather than rushing through, creating a rhythm of slow discovery.
The park has picnic areas, playgrounds, and refreshment stations scattered throughout so visitors can rest and refuel as they explore. Wearing sturdy shoes is wise since the terrain requires considerable walking, and allowing several hours ensures you can see different areas without rushing.
The facility holds Zoo and Aquaria Association accreditation, allowing it to participate in conservation programs for endangered species across the wider region. This recognition means the work done here contributes to breeding and protection efforts that extend beyond the park itself.
