Caversham Wildlife Park has been under the ownership and management of a Western Australian family. Since 1988, David and Pat, along with their grown-up children, David and Debbie, have overseen and operated the park. Initially, the park hosted a modest collection of animals and birds on a humble 5-acre property. Over time, the family acquired the adjacent property, expanding the park, which led to the growth of the animal collection. In May 2003, they established and constructed a new park within Whiteman Park, and subsequently, the park relocated to this new facility. Caversham Wildlife Park now boasts a collection of 200 species comprising over 2000 animals, birds, and reptiles, making it the largest collection of native wildlife in Western Australia. Drawing tourists from around the globe, the park's wildlife professionals offer personalized assistance to visitors, ensuring they have optimal animal interaction, information, and photography opportunities.
