Scratch a Capybara!
Step into the calm and curious world of the Capybara— one of nature’s most relaxed residents. In this exclusive behind-the-scenes encounter, you’ll meet the charming Capybara trio as they nibble on snacks, enjoy enrichment, and wander over to say hello.
This is your chance to connect with the world’s largest rodent in a way most visitors never get to experience. Guided by one of our expert keepers, you’ll use a special enrichment tool to give the Capybaras a gentle scratch, something they absolutely love! As they munch contentedly from their feeding pads and lean in for a groom, you’ll discover what makes these social animals so unique, from their quirky personalities to their peaceful nature.
With a small group size and a laid-back setting, this is the perfect way to slow down, share a moment with some truly loveable animals, and walk away with a new favourite species.

The capybara is the largest of all the 1,729 species of living rodents!
As a semi-aquatic mammal, the Capybara is an excellent swimmer, thanks to its webbed feet, thick fur, and the high placement of its eyes, ears, and nose on its head.
