Half-day Zookeeper experience

Spending half a day alongside our keeper team is a unique opportunity to learn all about Camperdown Wildlife Centre and the fabulous animals that live here. Your action-packed itinerary will feature the chance to work on various animal sections. Your half-day includes cleaning out enclosures, preparing food, and, of course, the opportunity to meet some of the animals up close—so it's guaranteed to be fun.

Being a Keeper for Half a Day can include preparing diets, cleaning enclosures, feeding, enrichment, and observing behavior.

Arrive at 9.00am at Reception Area where a Keeper will greet you.
