Niall Horan is currently on tour in Australia.

And the former One Direction star, 30, enjoyed some downtime at Australia Zoo on Monday.

Niall shared an adorable video of himself cuddling some of the park’s animals, including Australia’s native wombat and a cockatoo.

The singer was also seen chatting with Bindi Irwin, 25, and her husband of four years, Chandler Powell, 27.

“What a day to meet all the amazing staff and animals at @australiazoo,” she captioned the post.

‘Awesome! Greetings friend,” commented Robert Irwin, 20 years old; “It was an honor to receive a visit from him,” Australia Zoo wrote.

Horan took to the stage at the Brisbane Entertainment Center on Sunday night, where he performed a ‘shoey’ for the packed crowd.

Shoey is one of Australia’s iconic traditions that also functions as a punishment for hazing or as a celebratory ritual.

It became increasingly popular thanks to famous athletes such as Formula One driver Daniel Ricciardo and UFC fighter Tai Tuivasa.

Niall’s One Direction co-star Harry Styles, who toured Australia last year, also performed a famous shoey during a concert in Perth.

Horan will perform at Sydney’s Qudos Bank Arena on May 1 and Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena on May 3.

The 30-year-old will perform in Melbourne for a second night on May 4 after selling out his first performance in the city.
