Are you planning an event in Perth or Perthshire and looking for a unique way to entertain your guests? A mobile petting zoo is the ideal choice. Wild Science brings the joy of animal encounters directly to your doorstep, transforming any party, school gathering, or community event into an unforgettable experience.
Unlike traditional zoos, a transportable petting zoo in Perth allows both children and adults to connect with animals up close. From small mammals to fascinating reptiles, these encounters are interactive, educational, and great fun. Imagine the excitement of holding a guinea pig, touching a tortoise, or discovering fun facts about snakes and stick insects—all without leaving your venue.
Why Choose a Mobile Petting Zoo in Perth?
In Perth and Kinross, families, schools, and event organisers are always searching for entertainment that feels fresh and meaningful. That’s where a mobile petting zoo in Perth shines. It combines learning, laughter, and hands-on engagement with animals, making it the ideal choice for birthday parties, school workshops, and community celebrations.
Our mobile zoo is also a fantastic option for:
- Children’s birthday parties
- School workshops & after-school clubs
- Nurseries & early years learning
- SEN sessions with calm, sensory activities
- Weddings, festivals & corporate family days
- Community events in leisure centres, libraries & village halls
Every workshop is designed to be interactive, safe, and tailored to the specific needs of your group.
Meet the Friendly Animals
One of the highlights of our mobile petting zoo in Perth is the chance to meet a wide variety of animals. Each species adds its own magic to the event, creating excitement for kids and adults alike.
Here’s a look at some of our friendly animals:
- Mammals – rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, rats, hamsters, gerbils, ferrets, and hedgehogs.
- Reptiles – corn snakes, royal pythons, bearded dragons, leopard geckos, crested geckos, and tortoises.
- Amphibians – frogs, toads, and salamanders.
- Invertebrates – giant African land snails, millipedes, cockroaches, stick insects, tarantulas, and scorpions.
Every animal encounter is supervised by trained handlers, ensuring both safety and fun. Kids learn fascinating facts about habitats, behaviours, and welfare, while adults often enjoy the nostalgic fun of reconnecting with animals.
Picture a petting zoo party where kids can meet and greet furry friends like guinea pigs and lambs, all at gorgeous venues like Perth's beautiful grounds.
The Benefits of Animal Encounters
Booking a mobile petting farm in Perth is not just about entertainment—it’s also about education and wellbeing. Interacting with animals has been shown to:
- Boost social interaction and confidence in children.

- Reduce stress levels and create a calm, relaxing atmosphere.
- Provide fantastic experiences that kids talk about long after the event.
For schools and nurseries, our petting zoo sessions align perfectly with the curriculum, supporting learning in science, nature, and the environment. For families, it’s an ideal choice for parties that children will never forget. And for adults, it offers a chance to relax, laugh, and connect with nature.
