The mysterious interior of New Guinea and its unique bird treasures are unveiled in this patch of paradise. Over 25 species of fascinating rainforest birds coexist peaceably here.
Enjoy encounters with the feathered kinds such as our expressive palm cockatoos, the flightless southern cassowary and our gorgeous ground-dwelling nicobar pigeons.
Cockatoos have distinctive head crests which are normally kept folded back on the top of the head when relaxed. These are raised as a sign of agitation or curiosity, and to signal threat or romantic intentions.
Don’t miss out on this rare close encounter with these flightless birds!
Hand-feed our cassowaries and learn more about them from our keepers.
