Featherdale Wildlife Park

In my previous post, I was comparing Taronga Zoo with Featherdale Wildlife Park.. and now, here it is ^^
In Featherdale, you can also feed the kangaroo...There are also other animals that can be seen and played with. The above picture was my first visit to Featherdale Park with my cohortmates...

And the pictures below were my 2nd visit together with my family in the year of 2012. My parents together with my extended family including cousins were there for a holiday and at that moment, it was the beginning of winter. They wanted to experience cuddling the koala and kangaroo, so I brought them here because this place is much cheaper and gave much richer experience with Aussie animals. ^^


As you can see in the picture below, there are several attempts made to sabotage the kangaroos..hahahah Both my uncles and my dad tried their best to put their hands in the kangaroo pockets but failed.. LOL (kidding!) if they were ever did that, i'm sure all of em will be knock down by the roos..hahaha
 But they really tried their best to hug the kangaroo..I guess now they felt happier after experiencing the Aussie life..hahahah

And our trip for that day ended here...This place is quite far from Sydney City and it will be easier to rent a car to get to this Wildlife Park. That is why they had prepared a city zoo at Darling Harbour to make it easy for tourist but it is also quite pricy..hehehe

Taronga Zoo

oh my~ I miss going sight seeing like this.. This is Taronga Zoo which is situated on the shores of Sydney Harbour in the suburb of Mosman. You can get to here either by bus or by ferry... Personally, I would prefer taking a ferry at Circular Quay to get to Mosman. Their zoo is SUPERB! When I was at Taronga zoo, I felt like I was on another island because I can see sydney city from the zoo. It is a very big zoo.. There are quite a few zoo in Sydney and each zoo gave you different types of experiences. If you wanted to cuddle the koala or kangaroo freely, it would be best to visit Featherdale Wildlife Park. The wildlife park is similar to a farm. Though you can hold them freely, but there are animal poops everywhere.. For a first timer, you wont notice the surrounding because you are too excited looking at the animals.. that is the case with me too.. LOL but at Taronga Zoo, it is more sophisticated and everything is very clean.. You can also cuddle the kangaroo or koala but you have to pay for it at different price. At Taronga Zoo, they have different types of animal shows and i like all of em! It was fun spending time at the zoo..haha You are never too old to visit a Zoo..hehehe
