Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary

Welcome to Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary!

Personal preference; not as nice as i expected.

The place was big but not many things to see besides the few usual "Aussie" animals such as koala, kangaroos, wombat, dingoes, etc. Their concept of the place is very much alike with Koala Lone Pine Sanctuary except the fact that Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary has a mini train that drives around the whole park.


The journey from Brisbane to Currumbin took us around 2 hours plus to reach there. SUPER LONG!



Cassowary.

"koala-wanna-be-bear" is damn cute!

Bought our e-tickets- 36Aud (concession price) per person, save us the hassle to queue up.

We were quite disappointed because we missed a few shows in the morning where we won't get to see pelicans feeding and also a close up session with the crocodiles.




The decent girls with...
the not-so-decent guys.

Bird shows are very similar to koala lone pine too:



Bone fracture?
:D
Edchinas.

Dingoes.

Tasmanian Devils.

Pelican, kheng's favorite ;P

Wombat.

Golden Possum, where we managed to pat it!

Went to the koala area and saw this piece of signboard. Found it hilarious because the koala in it looks spastic. haha.


And now the real cute koala:



:))
Big fat crocodile.

Kangaroo feeding point:

Kangaroos here are much lazier compared to the ones in Koala Lone Pine. We were restricted to feed the ones resting on top of the small hill (there were tons of them!) and all of us were only allow to access to the one below. Many of them has fed them and we have troubled finishing our kangaroo food. Hence, we fed all kinds of animal like birds, ducks and even emu. -_-

Found a young kangaroo (joey) trying to enter the mother's pouch.


Emu.


Aboriginal dancers.

Before we left the place, we went for lorikeet feeding and spotted something interesting!





Super duper tiring,
what's next?

MAX BRENNER!
