live in. Perfect for young children, so hop along for an<br />

awesome experience!<br />

spend time in pouches, while others pop out as little<br />

versions of Mum!<br />

Animal Hide & Seek<br />

Hide and Seek isn’t just a game that we play, it’s a matter<br />

of survival out in the wild. We learn that colour and<br />

pattern is for more than just show.<br />

Animal Investigations<br />

Help us solve the mystery of which of our animals has<br />

been raiding our food supply! A clue was left behind,<br />

and by investigating feathers, fur and scales, we can get<br />

to the bottom of it.<br />
