Winter is here and your
zoo adventure aWaits
The team and I are always looking for
new ways to innovate and be brave.
As a not-for-profit organisation this
means we're always on the look out for
new ways to make money to help fund
our lofty conservation goals. For the
first time ever, the winter edition of your
Zoo News member magazine will also
feature advertising.
Don't worry, we promise you will still be
able to enjoy just as many stories and
insights as ever!
We've got your winter night time
experiences covered too with the return
of the popular Wild Nights experience at
Werribee Open Range Zoo.
And if you're free over the Queen's Birthday
long weekend be sure to head along to Wine
and Wildlife at Healesville Sanctuary and
enjoy local food and wine delights in the
incredible Sanctuary setting.
So rug up, pull on your boots and coat
and venture out into the zoos this winter!
