This is a privately run business which houses a wide variety of birds, some of which are endangered. There is a free flight area and there is information about the various birds. The setting is very tasteful with lots of water features which include fish and water lilies. I have visited Kalbarri several times but never visited the Rainbow Jungle before. I would recommend a vist and commend the owners for a very well kept attraction which is sensitve to conservation of vulnerable species.

Watch the raw fury of sharks feeding from the safety of our observation decks by joining a guided tour of the park with a marine scientist, or relax with never ending ocean views at Ocean Park Cafe. We are famous for our fine quality coffee, delicious cake and fresh seafood meals!
Had the awesome experience to witness the marine life within the aquarium, we had Josh as our guide who was super friendly, extremely knowledgeable and his passion about the marine life made learning about the creatures even more easier and having experienced the shark feeding was the highlight of the tour. After our tour we had a very tasty lunch on the boardwalk overlooking the ocean/bay. Would highly recommend visiting the place.

See over 60 varieties of native animals in an open parkland setting. Feed the birds in the walk through aviaries, pat the kangaroos and stroll through the gardens. Light snacks and refreshments are available to purchase or bring a picnic to enjoy.
On our trip to Bundury wildlife we when out for lunch there. The food was delicious but a little on the small side though. It was a wonderful day we enjoyed looking at all the birds and Australian wildlife animals it's super clean and the animals are will look after. My son really enjoyed feeding the kangaroos and birds in the aviary.

We went here on a cooler cloudy day & were really impressed with this place. Whilst it’s smaller than other animal parks we’ve been to it was a great place. It’s free for under 3s which was a great bonus for us & our 2yr old. Good value for adults. Animal food was cheap too. They have a little tyke car area with about 7 cars amongst other toys like scooters which can be used for kids to get around the park - an awesome bonus for our little person who usually gets tired legs quite quickly! There is also a cubby house area & sandpit too. Inside the cafe there are some boxes of toys which helped us eat lunch in peace! Food was lovely - wraps were loaded & tasty, big breakfast also great cooked well & not greasy. Tracey who runs it was lovely, super friendly & welcoming, happy to chat about the animals they rehabilitate which was lovely to hear about. Only comment to make is the signs on the paddock areas need updating some were a bit tricky to read. All in all a great few hours out for young families!

As many grandparents will be aware - it's the school holidays when we all try to think up treats for our grandchildren. We took ours to the zoo yesterday and it proved to be a day we all enjoyed. The zoo was full of children having fun exploring the various areas with the African Savannah, the Asian Rainforest, the Nocturnal House and the penguins particular favourites. The playground was also very popular and after they had a ride on the heritage carousel we all left happy. The facilities at the zoo are constantly being upgraded and it's both an educational and fun place for a day out for the whole family.

Peel Zoo is a privately funded zoo and wildlife sanctuary. Our goal is to be the best boutique zoo in Australia. We strive to achieve this by making sure everyone who visits us has a unique and personal experience. Visiting Peel Zoo is a bit like visiting one of your own family, who just happens to have hundreds of pets. Breeding animals is a key concern for us. And, in that regard, our Tasmanian Devil breeding program is of vital importance. This species is endangered in the wild because of an in incurable facial tumour disease. We hope our efforts contribute to the long term future of the Tasmanian Devil.
We visited in September 2019 and had a great afternoon. Loved the friendly atmosphere and that every animal had a name so you could greet them as you wandered around. The walk through aviary was great and we got some great photos with the birds. I've been to many zoos, in a number of countries, and this place is definitely worth a visit!
