As a conservation charity, every visit, adoption, donation and ticket helps save species from extinction

Bring the family together to spend a roarsome day out exploring the Adelaide Zoo jungle!

From Delilah and her not-so-little tiger cub trio to the vibrant Cotton-top Tamarin babies, we’re celebrating mums of all stripes and species.

See Sumatran Orangutans Puspa and Kluet swinging from the high ropes on their new Forest Canopy Trail or spot the Black-and-white Colobus infant clinging to mum.

With exciting keeper talks, presentations and surprises across the day, leave with memories that will last well beyond your wild day out.

Shop some wild gift ideas below, or see the full gift guide to find the perfect way to spoil your special person.

Gift a wild experience

Take mum on an adventure behind the scenes to mingle with a meerkat or get within a tail’s length of one of Australia’s largest lemur troops as they pounce and play. Browse the full range of experiences on offer at the zoo and park.

Gifts from the Shop

Spoil mum with a pair of super soft bamboo socks featuring her favourite animal, wildlife-inspired pot plants and hangers, or a Fahlo bracelet which lets her track an animal in the wild.

Cheers to mum!

Grab a bottle of our limited-edition Grapes for Good wines or treat them to a day of conservation degustation on the Grapes for Good Tasting Trail which pairs a dish with a sample of each of the unique wines.
