Wildlife HQ Zoo, Wildlife park in Woombye, Queensland, Australia
Wildlife HQ Zoo is a facility in Woombye that houses native Australian animals and species from around the world, connected by walking paths throughout the grounds. The layout guides visitors through different animal zones where they can observe residents in their enclosures.
The facility was established in 2014 after 200 animals were relocated from the nearby Alma Park Zoo, which closed due to property development. This move allowed animal care to continue under new management and conditions.
The zoo runs educational programs where school groups and visitors learn about animal welfare and why natural habitats matter. These sessions help people connect with conservation efforts in a hands-on way.
The grounds feature multiple walkable areas and designated picnic zones for families to rest between sections. Visitors should wear comfortable shoes and allow time to move at a relaxed pace through all the animal zones.
The facility regularly partners with film and television productions, making animals available for filming both on the grounds and at external locations. This involvement in entertainment production is a key part of its operating model.
