Australian Outback

No need to travel halfway across the globe in order to view the wonders of Australia’s wildlife. The Fort Worth Zoo brings Australia’s aquatic and terrestrial animal species to guests in its Australian Outback and Great Barrier Reef habitats.

Australian Outback is home to several species of Australian birds and a group of red kangaroos. The large marsupials spend their days snoozing in the sun and bouncing through their habitat.

Zoo visitors can go to the depths of the Coral Sea at the Fort Worth Zoo's Great Barrier Reef, an aquatic space with three saltwater tanks containing more than 10,000 gallons of water. Australian aquatic wildlife including vibrant fish, eels, corals, small invertebrates and blacktip reef sharks are showcased for a close-up encounter.
