We headed off to meet my Mum, sister & nieces there on Monday - and I was blown away by how good it was.
There were lots of reptiles - some out "wild" in the enclosures, and some safely behind glass cages. The Lost World of Reptiles exhibit was awesome - I loved the iguana!! (but didn't get a photo because my batteries were flat by then :( )
Lizards & turtles
Some sort of Australian lizard - I think it's an Eastern Water dragonSome reptiles were unexpected!
American alligator - *squirm*
Galapagos tortoise - feeding time!
Galapagos tortoise - so ugly, they're cute!But there were also lots of "cute" (and smelly) Australian animals:
Dingo - Australian native dog
Koala with baby
Wombat
Rock Wallaby
Tasmanian devil - aggressive & very smelly!
Another koala!
Emu having a feedand some beautiful bush to walk through as well.
Some sort of native flower - can't remember what but it was pretty!It was well worth a visit - we'll be back!

That Tortoise is awesome!!!
How beautiful! Thank you for sharing this. We love Australian animals and don't get to see them too often. Our closest zoo has wallabies and some Aussie reptiles like the lace monitor (gowana), but that's it.
Peace and Laughter,
Cristina
What a cool trip!! My kids would love it.
Kez, I'm pleased to read this review - my auntie lives just across the freeway near Avoca(well - it's about 20 minutes away I suppose) and we've never been to the park, but see it each time we visit and wonder if it's any good. It looks really nice. Love the baby koala! Lisa x
