There will be a free daily Superhero Stunt show at
1.30pm featuring three SpiderMan stunt performers doing impressive flips, tricks on a massive scaffolding structure reminiscent of the blockbuster Spider-Man: No Way Home.

Just some of the animals featured in the promotion will include Elvis the crocodile as The Hulk, Hugo the galapagos tortoise as The Flash, the funnel-web spider as SpiderMan, the platypus as Aquaman, the koala as Captain Australia,
the Tasmanian Devil as Daredevil, Kraken the Komodo dragon as Venom and the echidna as Iron Man. Signs around the park will highlight the amazing powers each animal possesses, along with an activity card listing each animal giving children the chance to find each Zooperhero within the park and tick them off as they go.

To add to the excitement, the park will have a gigantic Spider-Man jumping castle for guests to enjoy for free during their visit. “Zooperheroes is the best, most action-packed school holidays we have here at the Australian Reptile Park,” Director Tim Faulkner said. “We’re so excited to educate guests on just how phenomenal
our animals are and the special capabilities that make them so unique. “The kids just love watching and interacting with the superheroes in the Superhero Stunt Show. It’s easily the best part of the day and it will be bigger and better than ever before.” Source: Australian Reptile Park
