A life-size animatronic safari, featuring a different animal each day, will roam the Eden Shopping Centre from Monday, May 27 to Friday, May 31.

Visitors can meet these electronic animals - an Orangutan on May 27, a Giant Crocodile on May 28, a Lion on May 29, a duo of Jungle Babies (Hippo & Rhino) on May 30, and a Gorilla on May 31 - all controlled by the knowledgeable jungle safari rangers who will also impart incredible wildlife facts to shoppers.

As part of the Eden Shopping Centre's 'Roar & Explore' event, attendees can join an animal fact trail for added fun.

The entry has been divided into four slots per day from 11am, 12.30pm, 2pm, and 3.30pm.

The event requires pre-booking and will last up to 60 minutes.

Participants who attend a minimum of three out of the five animal encounters will receive a special treat, to be enjoyed with their family, by presenting their safari passports to the rangers.

Booking is done via the Eventbrite ticket system.

Each child requires a space reservation, but adults do not require separate bookings.

All are prompted to make it to their scheduled times to fully enjoy the chance to meet these life-like creatures.

Entry to 'Roar & Explore' is offered free of charge.

As pointed out, the event features animatronic animals, not real ones, offering a unique opportunity to witness these uncannily realistic simulations up close.
