Mogo Zoo

Mogo Wildlife Park (formerly Mogo Zoo) is a small privately owned zoo in Mogo, on the south coast of New South Wales, Australia. It is a member of the Zoo and Aquarium Association (ARAZPA) and has had success in breeding programs for endangered species, including the snow leopard, cotton-top tamarin, black-and-white ruffed lemur, red panda, and Sumatran tiger. The zoo has Australia's largest collection of primates.[1] It is one of only two zoos in Australia that exhibits white lions (the other being the National Zoo and Aquarium in Canberra). Unlike most small Australian zoos, Mogo Wildlife Park focuses on exotic species.

Mogo Wildlife Park exhibits a large African savanna, and a series of islands for primate species. The zoo is currently building an exhibit for a pair of chimpanzees that were not wanted in any other zoos in Australia, an act typical of the zoo's propensity for adopting unwanted animals.[2] Until recently it held the only kea in any Australian zoo and was also the home of the last red-handed tamarin in Australasia. Other previously held species include the little penguin, cougar, and crab-eating macaque.

In Nov 2019, Featherdale Wildlife Park bought Mogo Zoo from former owner Sally Padey, and will took over full ownership and operations from the end of Nov 2019.[3]
