Te Nukuao Wellington Zoo, the first carboNZero-certified zoo in the world, is committed to conservation and sustainability at its core. Nestled in Newtown’s city-fringe hills, the 13-hectare zoo is home to over 500 animals, with habitats carefully designed to meet their unique needs. The dedicated team of veterinarians and keepers ensure the animals’ welfare is always a priority.

Visitors can explore a variety of exhibits, from lemurs hanging from trees to native kea soaring overhead in a free-flight habitat. With kangaroos roaming in the Australian precinct and capybaras munching on leaves, there’s plenty to discover at every turn.
