In September 2001, the Lowry Park Zoo opened Stingray Bay where visitors can pet and feed stingrays in a 16,000-gallon touch pool. Stingray Bay marked the newest interactive exhibit at the Zoo since the Children's Petting Zoo and Lorikeet Landing until May 11, 2002, when the Zoo opened Wallaroo Station - a 4.5-acre Australian-themed family zoo that includes a wide variety of Australian animals. In 2004, the Zoo will open an 11-acre African exhibit, which will play host to several African animal species.
