Description:

Get up-close looks and even touch Australian native wildlife at Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary. Here, hand-feed koalas, sugar gliders, and kangaroo-like species such as bettongs and potoroos before a tug of war with a Tasmanian devil and the chance to hold a blue-tongued lizard.

Make your way to the Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary, a successful breeding site for Tasmanian devils and a sanctuary specializing in the care and rehabilitation of orphaned and injured wildlife. On this up-close tour you feed the wombats, offer wattle treats to the cockatoos, and select fresh leaves for the koalas as you gently pat their thick fur.

As you continue your walk, enjoy entertaining and informative commentary about the animals' behaviors and natural habitats before playing tug of war with the highly adaptive and endangered Tasmanian devils. Then hand-feed more wondrous animals such as the kookaburra bird, golden possums, potoroos, and kangaroos.

Next spot the secretive little bettongs in their grassy nests and feel the jagged texture of a blue-tongued lizard if you have the courage to hold this interesting creature. With the rare experience to see, touch, and feed many of Tasmania's native animals, this feeding frenzy is sure to be a memorable excursion.
