 | |  |  | Zoo / Aquarium/ Animal parks: Featherdale Wildlife Park | |  |  | |  |
We visited the park as part of a day-long guided tour to the Blue Mountains. If you go without a tour group, it's better to go earlier in the day or in the afternoon before or after all the larger tour buses get there (9-11). When you walk inside, you see the koalas (not koala "bear", just koala). You can't hold them here because most koalas become stressed out easily, and too much stress can kill them. You can, however, stand right next to them and take a photo with your own camera for free... but if you have a digital camera, don't get too close, instead stand back and use the zoom (digital camera flashes are brighter than others and zoo animals are slowly being blinded by people flashing cameras in their faces). Once you're past the koalas, you enter the wallaby area where wallabies are hopping around freely. You can buy food and hold out your hand to feed them. Other animals are fenced in around the path, including birds, wombats, a few cassowaries, dingos, and a crocodile that they have a presentation about and then feed. Leave a Comment
