Okay, when I think of Australia, I think of Kangaroos and Koalas. At Caversham Wildlife Park, you get to walk about with the Kangeroos ( no boxing permitted) and pet the Koalas.
A couple of notes, the albino kangeroos ( the one the kids are petting) are bred in captivity, the red kangeroos are the ones found in the wild along with grey ones.
Koalas sleep 20 hours a day and eat the other four ( think teenagers). In captivity, their food source is provided and their predators are non-existent. Their lifespan doubles to triples! I would say they have a good set up going. The koala in the pictures is Barney.
Great field trip to start things out.
Go easy on the bare shoulders BoBo... you just got there.
