Gan Guru, Australian zoo in Nir David, Israel
The four-acre park features native Australian wildlife, including multiple species of kangaroos roaming freely in designated areas for visitor interaction.
Gan Guru opened its gates on July 28, 1996, following initiatives by Kibbutz Nir David to create a specialized Australian wildlife center in Israel.
The zoo maintains strong connections with Australian wildlife authorities, implementing educational programs about Australian animals and their natural habitats.
The park operates from 9:00 to 15:00 on weekdays and Sundays, with extended hours until 17:00 on Saturdays, offering guided tours in multiple languages.
Visitors can enter designated areas to feed and interact with kangaroos, while observing emus, cassowaries, and colorful lorikeet parrots in their habitats.
