Established in 1980, Cairns Tropical Zoo is the largest and most diverse wildlife attraction in Tropical North Queensland and is set amidst six hectares of tropically landscaped gardens. Locally owned and operated, the zoo is home to hundreds of native and exotic species, many of which are indigenous to Queensland's northern wet tropics.

Cairns Tropical Zoo has broken the mould of traditional zoos by creating opportunities for you, the visitor, to interact with the animals. There are numerous opportunities during the day to get close, touch, feel and make some new animal friends. The zoo's philosophy is that personal interaction with animals encourages a greater understanding of native wildlife and promotes the need to preserve their natural habitats.
