Rockhampton Zoo

Rockhampton Zoo spans 180 acres of natural bushland along the Fitzroy River, featuring diverse habitats for native Australian animals and international species.

Established in 1925 within the Rockhampton Botanic Gardens, the zoo has expanded its facilities and animal collection through multiple renovation projects.

The zoo maintains a significant collection of over 200 animals from 60 species, including chimpanzees, gibbons, otters, meerkats, and native Australian wildlife.

Visitors can access the zoo without entrance fees and attend daily keeper talks, animal feeding sessions, and educational presentations throughout the year.

In 2018, the zoo celebrated the birth of Capri, the first baby chimpanzee born in Queensland since the 1970s.
