Kids Corner: Win a family pass Dinosaurs have been extinct for millions of years, but they’re alive at the Australian Reptile Park these summer holidays! The mighty Tyrannosaurus Rex and the Spinosaurus will meet and greet visitors from Boxing Day, right through to the end of the Australia Day long weekend. The T-Rex is probably the most popular dinosaur of all and was found in North America over 66 million years ago. The Spinosaurus is bigger, and thought to be the largest carnivorous dinosaur. This giant was found in North Africa around 110 million years ago. There will be photo opportunities for kids throughout the day with these enormous beasts. Our most famous living dinosaur, Elvis the saltwater crocodile, will thrill crowds when he leaps for his lunch at 1.30pm every day of the holidays. Hugo the giant 165kg Galapagos tortoise will delight visitors when he walks through the Park at 11.30am each day. Throughout the holidays, brave reptile keepers will weigh an enormous reticulated python, raid the newly laid alligator nests and we’ll celebrate Elvis’ 49th birthday on Friday, 2nd January 2015. Elvis celebrates like no-one else – by devouring half a cow! The Australian Reptile Park is simply the Best Family FUN Day Out and home to over 1,000 Aussie favourites and exotic reptiles. Free wildlife shows run daily and the new adventure playground is as popular as some of the animals! Visitors meet animals up close, handfeed kangaroos and have photos with a koala, wombat, Tasmanian devils and a giant Burmese python. There are native bushland and undercover picnic areas, with café, free BBQ’s and free, no-fuss parking. There are also loads of workshops running, with Kids 2 Keeper junior zoo keeping programs, a mini-program to introduce the 3-6’s to wildlife, Behind the Scenes tours of our restricted areas and a Devilish Encounter that takes visitors into the fascinating world of the feisty Tasmanian devil.
