Marsupials are Us!






Monday 3 August 2009. The Habitat is a three mile walk from the centre of Port Douglas which includes the option of passing under an enormous colony of fruit bats hanging and chattering in an avenue of trees. We decide to run through in case it is their ablution time!



The Habitat is definitely worth visiting if you are in the Port Douglas area. The Habitat is divided into Rainforest, Wetlands and Grasslands. Apart from the crocodiles, the echidna and the koalas, the animals roam and fly freely in large enclosures. Feeding the many types of kangaroo is a pleasure. Keeping out of the way of the emu is a trickier proposition!



Mission accomplished, Trish cuddles a koala.

We don't risk the bats on the return journey and decide to catch a bus...
