If anyone wants to see Australian wildlife go to to the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary. I went with my sister and brother in law from Canada and they loved it. They fed the kangaroos and had a wonderful experience.

“Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary, Brisbane was truly amazing. The place was so well kept, the staff were friendly and helpful, and the animals looked healthy, happy and so well cared for. I loved watching the kangaroos lazing around and living their best lives. Going there with my father is a memory I will always treasure. ❤️

The koalas are in very small pens surrounded on 4 sides by people viewing them. The pens have concrete floors and stink of urine. My heart was broken seeing these lovely creatures cooped up like this. The crocodile was on its own on filthy water - ive had more water in a bath. Kangaroos we're treated marginally better. Don't go here. Go to Phillip Island Koala Conservation Centre instead and see these creatures in comfort in their natural habitat.

Nice to come out here to see the various animals including the koalas. Great day out and all of the staff were very friendly and helpful. The admission fee was fine and we were there for a few hours. The animals all well looked after!

I stayed a lot longer than I expected - so many animals to see! Really relaxing environment despite being busy. I enjoyed the free raptor show and had some great animal encounters with informative guides. I found the layout a bit confusing but possibly could have made better use of the interactive map. A worthwhile experience.
