Sci-Fleet Toyota is a family owned and operated local business that has been servicing south-east QLD for 40 years.

Coca-Cola Europacific Partners Australia
Coca-Cola Europacific Partners Australia have been corporate sponsors since 2004 supporting projects including Bengal and Sumatran Tiger conservation and, more recently, the Australia Zoo Crocodile Research Trip to the Steve Irwin Wildlife Reserve.
With their help, a total of 170 estuarine crocodiles in the Wenlock River are being tracked, each providing critical data and contributing to the knowledge base of these incredible apex predators. While we can’t take everyone to see crocs in the wild, we can teach you how to stay safe in croc territory in our world-famous Crocoseum!
Streets
We are excited to have Streets as a member of the Australia Zoo family! Between WWI and WWII, Edwin (‘Ted’) Street, with the help of his wife and brother, laid the foundations for what would ultimately become Australia’s biggest and best-known ice-cream manufacturer.
Streets ice-cream was originally made in the back shed by Ted. He would then sell these to neighbours along with sweets, cakes and lemonade. Popularity grew and he soon used a cart, then a one-horse-power motorbike to sell Streets ice-cream.
It continued to grow and, today, Streets ice-cream is sold throughout Australia and New Zealand with well known brands such as Magnum, Paddle Pop and Blue Ribbon tempting ice-cream lovers. Crikey, our guests love munching on these truly iconic Aussie ice-creams!
Containers for Change
Containers for Change is excited to announce a partnership with Australia Zoo and our sponsorship of the ‘Containers for Change Crocoseum’! As Queensland’s container refund scheme, our goal is to reduce container litter, promote recycling, and help individuals, charities, and community groups benefit across the state. Australia Zoo has been actively collecting containers since 2018, aligning with the Zoo’s mission of conservation, successfully preventing hundreds of thousands of containers from becoming litter or ending up in landfill. With the recent addition of dedicated container bins, we are excited to amplify our impact and bring about even greater positive change!

Boral have been a Gold Corporate Sponsor since January 2008.
Boral has signed an agreement with Australia Zoo to plant a Koala fodder plantation on Petrie quarry buffer land, giving Australia Zoo and local Koala carer groups access to the fodder to feed injured & orphaned Koalas, as well as resident koalas.
The koala fodder trees are being cropped or pruned on a regular basis to provide some of the feed for koalas at Australia Zoo and the Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital, and also provide food for Koalas being cared for by registered wildlife carers. This contribution from Boral assists in a small way to the overall needs of sick and injured Koalas in the region.
