Frequently asked Questions

  • We are open every day except Christmas day. The Wildlife Park gates open from 9.30am – 5.00pm and our presentations run at 11.30am & 2.30pm. We may also close some catastrophic fire and some extreme weather days.

  • Raptor Domain has shows at 11.30am & 2.30pm that run for 1 hour. The Wildlife Park we recommend allowing 1.5-2hrs.

  • No need to pre-book tickets. You can get your tickets on arrival. The only pre-bookings that are essential are our private experiences.

    It is rare that we sell out the seats for the bird presentation but during school holidays and summer it is a possibility.

    During busy times we recommend planning to attend the 2.30pm bird presentations. This is our quieter session!

    If you wish to pre-book daily show tickets over busy summer season, we can do this over the phone to reserve your spots. Full payment is required and cancellation policy applies.

  • We recommend arriving 15-20 minutes prior to the session time to guarantee your spots.

    In busy season, to ensure your spot, you can arrive anytime from 9.30am.

  • Yes! Once you have your tickets we will endeavour to get you to the presentation as soon as possible. We just need to wait for the trainers to clear you to head down.

  • Rain: When it is lightly raining we aim to continue our presentations outside for the best possible experience. We recommend bringing wet weather gear during potential rain days. If it is raining heavily presenters will bring the presentation indoors. There is less seating available indoors so it is best to arrive early on rain days to ensure your spot.

    Heat: During days of extreme heat we may cancel afternoon bird presentations, often without much notice. We apologise for the inconvenience this may cause your holiday but our birds wellbeing is our top priority. We can guarantee you don’t want to be sitting out in full sun for an hour in that heat either!

    Catastrophic fire days: We may cancel presentations and close on catastrophic fire days so our staff can ensure they are tending to the animals in case of emergency circumstances.

    If we need to cancel a presentation time or close we will announce this on our social media pages.

  • Some of our birds eat nuts (particularly almonds) and therefore we cannot guarantee our premises is nut-free. Our staff handle nuts as well as the bird gloves and access all parts of the Raptor Domain.

    Although we strive to ensure no cross-contamination we do have nuts present on site and cannot guarantee traces of nuts will not be found throughout our site, particularly at the bird arena and presentations.

    If you have a severe nut allergy and wish to see the bird presentation please inform our staff prior to entry and discuss the safest way for you to visit our presentations.

  • We have a small selection of sandwiches, chips, cookies, icecream, hot and cold drinks. We have internal seating within the park grounds but currently no external seating. We currently do not have BBQ facilities.

    The Welcome Stranger Cafe & Bar is located across the road with a great range of food to eat in or take away.

  • Raptor Domain has a gravel path to get to the flight arena but is on flat ground. Wheelchairs can access the arena.

    We do however have birds that are scared of wheels - so our trainers may ask you to cover the wheels with blankets.

    We can also no allow prams in the arena. These must stay at the shop or in the waiting room.

  • We do have toilets within the waiting area. These can be used by Raptor Domain guests or those waiting on friends or family at the show.

  • We have annual passes available for locals and regular customers. Visit 3-4 times in the 12 month period to cover the cost of your annual pass.

  • No. Due to the nature of the shows we cannot allow pets or animal aids. Many of our birds are free-flying afraid of animals (particularly dogs) and we also need to consider the biosecurity risk to our animals.

    The only outside animals that can be brought on site is rescued wildlife that is being surrendered.

  • Raptor Domain is not a walk-around park, it is open for scheduled presentations only.

    Kangaroo Island Wildlife Park is located on the same great site as Raptor Domain and is open 9.30am – 5.00pm every day if you want to walk around and see the animals at your own leisure. Tickets required.

    You can even spend time at the park, pop over to the bird presentation and back to the park!
