Alma Park Zoo was a 40-acre (16 ha) zoo located north of Brisbane, Australia, in Dakabin on Alma Road. The park was filled with Australian and exotic species. Alma Park Zoo was the oldest zoo in Queensland when it closed in 2014. The zoo was owned by Bill Williams who also owned a business called WW Shock Absorbers, but was built by workers, led by Leroy Pidgeon, who lived with his family in the caretakers cottage in the zoo at the time. Leroy also recovered, transported and replanted many of the mature palm trees that were a statement of the zoo. These came from older farm blocks around Brisbane that were being sub divided in the early 1970s period and Bill Williams had struck deals to acquire them. The zoo closed on 31 March 2014 and many of the animals were transferred to Queensland Zoo. There were plans for the zoo to open in Logan; however, this plan was cancelled in May 2015. Alma Park Zoo was open every day from 9am to 4pm, excluding Christmas Day and reduced hours on ANZAC Day (25 April).
