The animals are fully adapted to the park setting and accustomed to people, meaning you can pat and feed them. It’s more...

Flinders with the Family

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle or REFUSE? Which one?

South Australia is actually well ahead of other states in Oz when it comes to recycling. Did you know Queensland STILL have single use plastic bags in the supermarkets?!? And we were the first state to bring in the 5c bottle recycling (now 10c), which means that 80% of recyclable beverage containers are actually recycled! That’s pretty good! We try our best at home to recycle and reuse as much as possible BUT we could definitely be better...
