Darling Downs Zoo is a zoo situated in Pilton, Queensland, Australia.[3] The zoo is divided into four separate geographical areas featuring animals mostly from Africa, South America, South-East Asia and Australia.[4]

History

The zoo was closed from 27 March to 9 June 2020 due to government restrictions during the COVID-19 pandemic in Australia.[5][6] As the zoo had large carnivores it had problems feeding them. It relied on bank loans and generous people to cover costs, and also set up a crowdfunding page to raise money.[7][2] The zoo has since re-opened to the public.

Species

Species at the zoo from different regions (continent alphabetical below) include:
