Hubby and I had a lovely few hours walking through Moonlit Conservation Sanctuary recently. We took a picnic lunch and sat on the park bench and enjoyed a relaxed time among the animals. We purchased some special food to hand feed the wallabies and kangaroos. Some of the animals are in enclosures and many roam free so you can have a very up close interaction with a variety of animals. We enjoyed watching the frogmouths being hand fed and listening to the calls of the barking owls. The staff gave great talks on the dingoes, koalas, frogmouths and reptiles.

Unlike a zoo, this place has all native Australian animals. It's hard to look past the koalas and kangaroos but the Cape Baren Goose looks just like he is off for a walk in his gumboots.

Squue! What fun! Wallaby mama and baby! I like the strut on the goose, too.
