Farm animals

A visit to the Swan Valley Cuddly Animal Farm provides children (and adults too!) with the opportunity to experience the joy of interacting with friendly farmyard animals such as cows, sheep, goats, pigs, chickens and many more.

Daily feeding times allow visitors to get hands-on with bottle- or bucket-feeding.

The nursery section always has bunnies, guinea pigs and chicks to feed and cuddle, while lambs, goat kids and piglets can also be regularly found there.

Alongside its native fauna, Caversham Wildlife Park is also home to Molly's Farm, an interactive farmyard experience where visitors can feed the buffalo, llama, deer and other animals.

The Wildlife Park's daily Farm Show is not to be missed. Get a glimpse of farm life with demonstrations of whip-cracking, sheep-shearing, billy-swinging and more. You may even get the chance to milk a cow!
