Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary, Brisbane

If you would like to pose a picture with the kangaroos and koalas... this is a great place you can go to..... There is an area where you can get to feed the kangoroos.. and you can buy the 'food' from there :)

This is the best (and safest) way to see some of Australia's native animals up close. On display are koalas, kangaroos, lizards, wombats, Tasmanian devils, and more.

The guides are very knowledgable and friendly and can answer any question about the animals in the park. They frequently give talks at the exhibits.

Unique activities include feeding the kangaroos and emus, and holding a koala (which was heavily tranquilized). For a few dollars, you can get your picture taken with the koala.

If you can't make it out of the city, or haven't had any luck seeing these animals in nature, this is a good place to go. It is open every day and admission is fairly priced at around AU$15.

I recommend a visit to the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary which is just outside of Brisbane. The sanctuary is a great way to get close to Australian animals such as Koalas and kangaroos.

Another great place.. The LonePine Sancuary... A must see if you are visiting Brisbane.. for all wildlife lovers.
