From 10am until 3pm, there will be plenty of free activities to keep everyone entertained, and visitors can connect with nature and appreciate the park’s wildlife.
Kids can have their faces painted to look like their favourite animal, enjoy some animal-themed arts and crafts, bounce on the jumping castle or choose an airbrush tattoo.
Meanwhile, parents can sip a freshly brewed coffee from the café overlooking the Meerkat mob as they go about their busy lives digging holes.
Kyabram Fauna Park director Lachlan Gordon said everyone is welcome to join in the fun and take in the jam-packed schedule of keeper talks.
“The keeper talks are a fantastic way for our visitors to learn more about our precious wildlife from the qualified keepers who take great care of the animals each and every day,” Mr Gordon said.
Kyabram Fauna Park is home to hundreds of animals, including Tasmanian devils, quolls, dingoes, koalas, kangaroos, wombats, echidna, emus and southern cassowary.
Kyabram Fauna Park is just a 30-minute drive from either Shepparton or Echuca.
It is open 10am to 5pm every day of the week.
