    Not sure how collecting less money saves more wildlife, unless they more than double visitors?

    • +7

      Similar to loss leader strategies. Promoting wildlife, animals etc. to more of an audience which will in turn drum up more donations and visits in the future.

    • I care about wildlife so much I went on my birthday for $1.

      Except the lady charged me $2 since I paid by card.

  • +20

    never happened before, half price promo..
    probably, just made up some excuses, most likely less traffic now due to the recent competition…

      Not sure why people negged you.

      You are correct, Taronga is salty that they do not have a monopoly on zoo's anymore (featherdale was a blip for them). Now they have competition from Sydney Zoo and are forced to become competitive.

      • +1

        yeah. very obvious . just search ozb there were hundred posts asking discounted TZ tickets and people are lucky to get 10% off and now suddenly, 1 month after SZ open, whaoalaaa 50% off….

        • +1

          40% off last year.. this isnt new.. If you read their website and other comms from govt etc (Fed gov gave them 1 million dollars to help save wildlife after the fires) and they need profits to continue that - the fed money wont last long.. nothing wrong with an org like this wanting to share the message is there? I know we do it where I work also (in another NFP).

    • I got tickets same time last year at 40% off. I'd think fires would have had a big impact of late

    • I bought them on 40% off last year so its not that new

  • +2

    Makes no sense.
    Smells like they are exploiting the tragedy.
    Zoos play an import science role, but how many of the billion animals killed are they saving?

    As a proud not-for-profit conservation-based zoo, when you choose to visit Taronga, you are choosing to save wildlife.

    can someone enlighten me how putting animals in cages with little space is saving wildlife?

    • +2

      They might mean their profits go towards saving wildlife. As to putting animals in cages, well, I guess it could act as a seed bank?

    • +8

      Taronga does a lot of conservation work outside of the zoo.

      https://taronga.org.au/conservation-and-science/current-rese…

    • My understanding* is that most of the animals in Taronga are from injured animals or domesticated and can never survive in the wild if released.

      *May not be accurate

  • +5

    Definitely using this offer to make it look like they are caring more than they normally do for the wildlife when really they want people to forget about that new zoo in the western suburbs.

  • +6

    Got a Taronga zoo pass last year and have been 4 times. Went there last week on a cool Saturday, perfect zoo weather in the school holidays and I’ve never seen the place so quiet. Every other time I’d been there was before the opening of the new zoo. Think the new zoo has affected crowds pretty dramatically.

    • +5

      I know people who work at both zoos. Sydney Zoo doesn't have all their animals yet (lots of empty exhibits but they opened anyway because they were so far behind schedule), and is quiet AF during the week. Most tourists don't want to venture out west.

      • Thanks for the heads up. I've been planning to check it out, but might wait a bit longer until they get more animals in

  • +5

    $50 for 2 adults after 50%.

  • +2

    So free internet is great, bank promo's are great, anything but Australian animals is great - easy to see why there's a billion dead animals, and the hellfires are here to stay

    Just send me a koala! I'll give it TLC ♥

        ok boomer

      • TLDR

      • and yet with your immensely evolved homo-sapien brain, you still managed to provide evidence that our species lacks intelligence

        • Who cares, they are cute as hell. And they're true blue Aussie.

        Please write something up like this on right wing uneducated Murdoch Liberal/LNP loving bogans.

      • @bortsampson: I enjoyed that read and lots of good info about Koalas ther that most people dont know about (ok…missing the good things that they do). Have a + vote from me.
        I lke Koala's myself and for Australia,they bring in a lot of tourists alongside Kangaroos. :-)

        • Haha, it was a popular copypasta that I copied from reddit. Seems people think I really do hate koalas lol.

        Lol you so clever- copy and pasting that rubbish from reddit

    Good 1st post 👋

    Just purchased the tickets, it says valid for six months with 15 July, 2020 as expiration date on the tickets. Not sure, how redeeming tickets by 7 Feb, 2020 comes into action?

    • Same here.

    • +3

      From the T&C's

      Strictly valid for sale and redemption between 17 January to 7 February 2020 only.

    • +2

      called the zoo. This must be redeemed by the 7th of Feb

  • +2

    Not valid for family tickets " Taronga Zoo - Family 2 Adults & 2 Children " @ $124.80 . Still higher than Sydney western zoo normal price at $99.

    • -1

      You're doing it wrong facepalm

    • +1

      You add them separately as adults and kids.
      This deal works out well if you have a child under 4 but over 2.
      Sydney zoo counts children over 2 as a ticket.
      Went last week, very convenient. Some animals weren't there. Taronga is bigger and nicer to walk around. But Sydney zoo is easier to cart around a bunch of kids as it's all flat and relatively small.

  • +1

    Anyone notice it's not 50% off online… wonder if at the gate it's 50% off.

  • +1

    Its not full 50% off. I added 2 Adults + 1 child and it gives discount of $50.80 from total of $114.30.

    • +1

      I think the discount was computed from its original price without the less 10% price. The total price prior to the 50% off is the discounted 10% ($114.30).

  • Is this Sydney Zoo?

  • -1

    zoos will be the only place to see Australian animals soon because the mindless yank loving drones here have made sure that the Australian ecosystem is all burnt to a crisp.

    superbowl's coming and u can all celebrate and toast the extinctions at half time.

    note to tourist industry - employ those lying creeps employed by the liberal party to get re-elected to sell packages to see the destroyed areas - I'm sure you can do it. Maybe build some monuments to which extinct species used to live there, and give free internet to stream online.

    • Build more zoo for tourists.

      • yep - sure the yanks will get those contracts as well.

  • +1

    Can anyone confirm if the expiry date is indeed 7th Feb or will be the July date as implied by tickets received by some ozbargainers already?

    • I’m wondering the same. Has anyone called them?

    • +4

      called the zoo. This must be redeemed by the 7th of Feb

  • -7

    If you really care for animals, the only place for them is in their undamaged natural habitat instead of a pen/cage/tank/enclosure. Zoos pretend to care, but they are a business that requires profits at the end of the day.

    • It costs $44 + travel to see a tiger in Sydney. People don't care enough to spend $1000s to see them in the wild.

      • True, but that is about benefiting those people and that tiger is no better off

    • burnt to a crisp is the liberal party of Australia's preferred option for an Australian habitat - looking forward to seeing how much money brings them back from extinction- the koala's looking pretty far gone now - good job scummo and the lads - proving how uninformed Australians are thanks to a yank driven media.

      'the rate of extinction in Australia was the highest of any continent in the world and "highly likely" to accelerate'. 2020 - pre hellfire- drink up to this great stinking cesspit next week - salute its destruction
