  Spent a morning here and loved it. Lots of ducks, geese, and birds but our favourite was feeding the wallabies and kangaroos around the park. Also got up and close with a koala for some photos. Park is relatively small so you can make your way round in about 1-1.5 hours. Some people here complain that too many of the animals are in enclosures but let's be honest - most humans do not know the proper ways of interacting with wild animals (saw a child try to kick a bird to shoo it away from a kangaroo). It is probably much safer for both animals and guests that some of the animals, like their large emu and very sensitive koalas, are kept in controlled environments away from dumb people!

  Had an amazing time here with my family. You get to mingle with the animals. The wallabies are especially cute. Great for young families. Good exposure to wildlife for children and fun way to spend ones time.

  This is a really thoroughly enjoyable sanctuary/mini zoo. They take their work seriously and do it well! From a tourists perspective, it's really fun, just short enough and feeding wallabies is really great.

  I also enjoyed visiting Moonlit Sanctuary with their variety of Australian animals, but as far as getting to this Animal Sanctuary by public transport for those who do't drive concerned is a inconvenient nuisance; cause the bus travelling there doesn't seem to go all the way to entrance of Moonlit Sanctuary only seem to drop passengers off halfway which the rest of way is 40 minutes walk for person visiting seem to have two options (1) walk that distance or (2) pay extra cash to taxi cab or organized bus tour to get there. Unfortunately Not everyone who uses public transport can always afford that extra expense/luxury.

  Great place to see Australasian wildlife up close, feed wallabies and Kangaroos. The open enclosure makes it feel like the animals have freedom and the space is big enough for them. Ideal place to take kids or overseas visitors who are keen to see Australia's unique wildlife.
