Unwrap adventures, not packaging!
Gift a memorable wildlife experience with a Close Encounter!
These don’t just create memories–they’re also a way to connect with nature and support conservation efforts.
With a range of Close Encounters to choose from there’s something for every animal lover.
They can even be a Zookeeper for a day!
Handmade gifts
If you’re crafty, a handmade gift is always a winner.
How about a DIY bird feeder made from recycled materials? Or maybe some tasty homemade treats made with palm-oil free chocolate?
Handmade gifts add a personal touch, and they’re a great green option!
A gift that lasts all year
A Perth Zoo membership gives all year round with free entry every day, plus a 10% discount at our café outlets and Zoo Shop.
Not only do they get to connect with nature as often as they like, but they’ll also be supporting important conservation efforts with every visit. It’s a gift with purpose!
PLUS our animal adoptions are a 12-month package that connects you to your favourite animal, while supporting our vital conservation work.
It even includes exclusive quarterly updates on our precious species.
Super green
One of the best things you can do for our native species is to create a wildlife-friendly garden.
Go green this holiday season by gifting native plants, a bird bath, or a nesting box to provide food and shelter for the animals that call WA home.
You could even make a bee-hotel!
Our Perth Zoo Horticulture Team are experts in creating ecosystems that wildlife love, so we got their top tips for creating wildlife friendly gardens at home.
Eco-friendly gifts that give back
For those who love to unbox something, there’s plenty of eco-conscious options!
There are bracelets that track a real wild animal, re-usable cups, bags, and water bottles, educational books, even décor made from poaching snares removed from the wild!
Not only is your product eco-friendly but proceeds from your purchase also help Perth Zoo to fund critical conservation projects all over the world, and to care for the 1300 animals that call the Zoo home.
You can find Perth’s largest range of wildlife-inspired products at the Perth Zoo Shop.
Whether you’re gifting an adventure, something handmade, or a donation in someone’s honour, going green is a great way to give back.
Embrace sustainability to make this holiday season magical both for nature, and everyone on your gift list!
