Sydney Wildlife World

Sydney Wildlife World Review

This new Sydney attraction brings 6,000 native Australian animals right to the heart of Sydney. Kangaroos, koalas, and dozens of other species come together under the one huge roof—in nine separate habitats—next door to the Sydney Aquarium. A huge wire-mesh dome covers Flight Canyon, an aviary where dozens of birds fly freely overhead as you stroll the 1-km (½-mi) walkway. You'll find koalas in Gum Tree Gully, and endangered bilbies, together with other nocturnal creatures, in the After Dark habitat. The latest exhibit is Kakadu Gorge Habitat, named after the lush park in the Northern Territory. It has red sandstone cliffs, a billabong (lagoon), waterfalls and the star attractons—Rex, a 5-meter (16.4 foot) saltwater crocodile. Each day you can watch a different animal being fed (including the snakes). A combined ticket with Sydney Aquarium costs A$50, or you can also combine this attraction with Sydney Tower for the same price.
