Raptor Domain is open every day (closed Christmas Day). We have bird presentations at 11.30am and 2.30pm where visitors can have an up close experience with free-flying birds of prey. Volunteer participation throughout the show allows visitors to interact with a range of birds but visitors can also purchase a ticket to hold a Wedge-tailed Eagle at the end of the presentation.

First time I've been close to a wedge tailed eagle. Magnificent bird.

"Really enjoyed our experience here with the other members of our group and visitors to the park. Suitable seating to watch the show and see the interaction of the birds with their handlers and us spectators. Fantastic to see the enthusiasm of the younger set of spectators and their keenness to touch the birds and be involved in the show. Very likely that many of them had not been in close proximity with birds of prey previously. Most of the birds were orphaned, injured or sick and rescued and for various reasons are unable to be re-released into the wild."

Well worth a visit

"This was an excellent interactive activity with common raptors of Australia. Everybody gets the opportunity to take part in the demonstration and the information from the keepers was valuable."

Fun, interesting and educational

"The Raptor Domain is an excellent interactive experience during our visit we learned about the different birds of prey, their habitats and watched as the keepers interacted with the birds, audience members get the opportunity to be part of the show letting different birds land on their outstretched hands if they wish, a very worthwhile experience for all ages."

Fascinating!

"The Raptor Domain was an incredible experience. The staff who brought the birds out to meet the audience were very knowledgeable and seemed genuinely passionate about these birds. I learnt so much about owls and eagles. My husband was thrilled to hold a wedge-tailed eagle! Well worth a visit if you are on Kangaroo Island 🦅🦘"
