  The Roar and Snore package is particularly engaging for students as it is a 'hands on' learning experience. It includes:
  
  - a guided night time walk with the opportunity to see the night habits of some of the animals as well as feed them (make sure students do not have torches that will shine in the animals eyes, red light torches are provided)
  
  - the chance to hold smaller animals, reptiles and insects such as lizards, snakes, echidnas and stick insects
  
  - a guided early morning walk before the zoo opens so children can observe the animals without the crowds.
