Kangaroo Kountry
Children and adults alike can explore this interactive area
that allows visitors to walk to a covered overlook to view
kangaroos and wallabies. Take a personal walkabout
and view a “mob” of Kangaroos lying along the
pathways or jumping throughout the exhibit.
New for 2010, Kangaroo Kounty will be offering special activities that introduce children to the Australian aboriginal culture. Some of the activities will include creating boomerangs, cave painting, making digeridoos, storytime, creating collages, and much more!
