Melbourne Zoo is one of Australia's oldest and most beloved zoological parks, situated in the heart of Melbourne, Victoria, and operated by Zoos Victoria. The zoo is home to a diverse collection of animals including giraffes, tigers, snow leopards, red pandas, spider monkeys, and hundreds of other species presented across a variety of immersive habitat exhibits. Guests can enjoy the Butterfly House, outdoor play spaces, and specialty dining, as well as premium experiences such as overnight Roar 'n' Snore camping and up-close animal encounters. Seasonal events like the animatronic dinosaur exhibition add extra excitement for families. As a conservation-focused organisation, Melbourne Zoo conducts wildlife research and runs educational programs for schools and the public, with membership offering unlimited entry across four Victorian zoos.
