Seal Experience
Witness the incredible intelligence and agility of Australian fur seals in action at Melbourne Zoo.
This exciting experience gives you the rare opportunity to head behind the scenes and meet Bella, Iha or Pania.
View an intimate training session led by our expert keepers, where you'll see how our seals learn and enact a range of behaviours, designed to give them the best welfare possible. Learn all about the bonds they share with their trainers, natural instincts, individual stories and how our Marine Response Unit are assisting injured marine species and birdlife out in the wild.
Each behind the scenes experience will be unique, allowing our keepers to let the individual animals shine and give them the choice to control how they participate.
The behind the scene is a brief experience that lasts a couple of minutes with each visitor booked, however please plan up to 15 minutes to meet your host and keeper, and hear the safety briefing.
Zoo entry not included. Be sure to also book your entry tickets for the same date as your behind the scenes.
