It was originally located in the locality of Caversham. The Park was bought by a couple, David and Pat, in 1988 and covered 2 hectares (4.9 acres) of land. It was later doubled in size when the couple bought the adjoining property and increased the number of animals. [2]

It shifted into Whiteman Park in 2003. [3]

The park is home to over 100 species of birds, at least 19 species of native marsupial mammals, and at 36 species of native reptiles, as well as many others.
