Overview

Get ready for an exciting adventure into the world of megafauna! The Australian National Botanic Gardens invites you to dive deep into the fascinating creatures that roamed Australia during the last Ice Age.

Encounter massive megafauna that once roamed Australia and discover the megaflora that they ate. Compare living relatives to extinct megafauna, investigate fossil evidence, and delve into the past as you follow the MEGAfauna Look-Alike trail.

Join children's author Bronwyn Saunders for MEGAfauna Fun, an enthralling presentation all about the largest marsupials to ever walk the Earth!

Or take on the roles of both paleontologists and artists as you sculpt your own magnificent megafauna using natural materials such as native leaves, seeds, sticks, and clay with artist Tom Buckland in an art workshop.
