There’s nothing like the cute, cuddly and award winning animals at the Royal Melbourne Show!
There’s nothing like the 10, 000 animals at the Royal Melbourne Show. At the 2011 Royal Melbourne Show the popular Animal Nursery featured more than 450 animals of 18 different varieties to meet and cuddle, with 33 lambs born over the 11 days! The Animal Nursery also housed a large patting pen featuring calves, lambs, kids (baby goats) and chickens to name just a few.
Throughout the grounds you could see all sorts of animals from award winning Beef Cattle, Sheep and Goats in the Weekly Times Livestock Pavilion to the best horses from around the country on the Coca-Cola Arena.
More than 190 dog breeds featured at this year’s Show including Weimaraner, Poodles, German Shepherds and Dachshunds to name a few. The Portuguese Podengo was also on Show for the first time ever!
Other amazing animals including alpacas, chooks, ducks and turkeys delighted Show goers throughout the event. Click here for images of the many different animals at the 2011 Royal Melbourne Show.
