The animals at the Australian Reptile Park were in fine Halloween spirit this week as they starred in a fun video set in a graveyard to celebrate the spooky holiday with festive fun!
Edgar and Honey the koala joeys explored the spooky graveyard setting as Scooby and Shaggy the Tasmanian Devil joeys relaxed in a carved Halloween pumpkin.
Then the scaly and slimy creatures came out as snakes, lizards, toads and turtles explored.

Park Manager Billy Collett said Halloween was a great opportunity to celebrate the creepy crawlies and dangerous animals, alongside the cute and fluffy mammals.
“More importantly, if a fun video like this reaches the right audience and inspires them to learn about our koalas, snakes, Tasmanian devils, or any of Australia’s native wildlife—that’s a big win for me,” he said.
