About
A General Entry ticket entitles visitors to all day entry to Ranger Red’s Zoo & Conservation Park.
Tickets are valid for a single entry to Ranger Red’s Zoo & Conservation Park.
The Up Close and Personal Zoo:
Ranger Red’s Zoo is a boutique, hands-on zoo, in a lush setting on the banks of the Murray River.
What makes Red’s Zoo really unique is the ‘hands-on experience’ you get here. Hand feed the animals, hold a snake, pat a rufous bettong, tickle a ferret. There are well over 100 species of birds and animals that will capture your imagination: koalas, wombats, dingoes, exotic birds, reptiles, kangaroos and many more.
The Difference:
The difference between Ranger Red’s Zoo & Conservation Park and other zoos is the “Hands On Experience” you’ll get when you visit us. We offer more than just walking past enclosures. When you come to Ranger Red’s Zoo & Conservation Park, our awesome team of Volunteers will ensure you have a great time, every time. If you want to hold a Stimsons Python; no problem. If you don’t want to, but your 4 year old son, who knows no fear does, we can help with that too. Maybe a ferret is more to your liking. Or pat a kangaroo… We’ll do our best to help you create wonderful memories of your visit here!
About Us
Visiting Ranger Red’s Zoo & Conservation Park is a bit like visiting one of your own family, who just happens to have hundreds of pets. Breeding animals is a key concern for us. And, in that regard, our Tasmanian Devil breeding program is of vital importance. This species is endangered in the wild because of an in incurable facial tumour disease. We hope our efforts contribute to the long term future of the Tasmanian Devil.

Refunds: Tickets are non-refundable. Date changes are permitted up to a maximum of 1 year from the initial purchase date. All date changes must be made a minimum of three (3) days prior to the booked date of the entry ticket. A no show on the day will result in the ticket being forfeited.
Companion Cards:
If you’re a Companion Card holder, your carer/support person gets free general admission to the zoo.
- Simply show your valid Companion Card at the entrance when purchasing your ticket.
Ranger Red Zoo offers a range of amazing experiences – you can check them out on the website.
Here’s how the Companion Card works for these activities:
-
- The Companion Card holder pays for the selected experience.
- The carer/support person can accompany the card holder to assist and support, but cannot participate in the activity (e.g., cannot feed or interact with the animals).
- This applies to encounters, such as the Dingo Experience, Snake Experience, Reptile Handling and more!
- If the carer/support person wishes to participate in the experience, they would need to pay for their selected experience.
- Snake encounters are free and run on school holidays, weekends and public holidays.
Junior Zookeeper for a Day – Special Note
This is the only exception! For the Junior Zookeeper for a Day experience, due to limited capacity and the structure of the activity, both the Companion Card holder and the carer need to purchase a ticket
The zoo is mainly wheelchair friendly, however some of the enclosures where the encounters are held, are not wheelchair friendly. Please contact Redz zoo to find out which encounter is wheelchair friendly prior to booking.
