Petting Zoo Barn, Memphis TN

Petting Zoo Barn

Included with admission

A petting zoo offers a combination of domesticated animals and some wild species that are docile enough to touch and feed. Animals in such zoos are typically gentle, domesticated baby animals like lambs, puppies, kittens, ducklings, and bunnies. These kind of zoos are perfect for children, as they can get up close to animals and pet them. The petting zoo barn at Safari Wild Animal Park is well supervised to prevent injury to either children or the animals and our staff will help you in whichever way you need.


Lorikeet Feeding, Memphis TN

Lorikeet Feeding

$5.00 (plus tax)

The Rainbow Lorikeet is a medium sized species of Australasian parrot, which ranges in length from 25–30 cm (9.8-11.8 in) with an average wingspan of 17 cm. Lorikeets are naturally nectar feeders. In the wild they feed on the nectar of native flowers, on different kinds of berries, fruits and sometimes greens. Their plumage is very bright and colourful, and they love welcoming guests to Safari Wild Animal Park! These colourful, active and curious birds are not shy of humans and like to eat right from your hands or take a rest on your head and shoulders.

Did you know that approximately 70% of their day is spent feeding? Come interact and find out more about the playful Lorikeets at Safari Wild Animal Park!
