Taralga Wildlife Park
There is a lot to see with 120 species of animals and birds across 50 exhibits in the approximately 9 acres of park.
There's a bias towards Australian native animals, but you can look forward to all sorts of lovable critters like wombats, wallabies, deer, alpacas, donkeys, miniature ponies, rabbits, guinea pigs, goats and sheep. The whole experience is designed to be family friendly, so you can even bring a picnic or use their barbeques for lunch.
The park is located on Bannaby Road in Taralga and opens from 10am to 4pm Thursdays to Mondays.
