Happy World Croc Day 🐊🐊 A day to celebrate our scaley ancient friends who were badass enough to have lived with the dinosaurs and survived to become the new apex predators in many regions. Our native Saltwater (or Estuarine) Crocodile holds the title for the largest reptile species in the WHOLE world and Crystal our resident female Saltie shows you why. Crocodiles perform what's called a death roll, which is exactly as it sounds to both help kill the prey and also once deceased to help break the body apart for consumption. Crystal at only 2.5m is average sized for a female Saltie, however males can reach up to 5m and weigh in at 500kg or more 😳
WA Day Long Weekend, Yes we are OPEN!!! 🤗🤗 Come down and visit we have reptile handling sessions at 11:30am and 2:00pm. In the meantime we have a range of creatures great and small to see 🥰 Take a page out of Natalie, our common Wombats book and just relax in whatever way works 😅😅
🦜Happy World Parrot Day 🦜 SOUND WARNING: Listening at high volumes will have your eardrums burst by Rainbow Lorikeet calls in the background!!! The perfect day to showcase how our gorgeous native Parrot, the Little Corella eats his breakfast. This is Rory, our sweet little guy who lives in our walk in aviary at the centre. Rory loves to talk and is particularly good with the ladies, uttering his favourite phrase "hello, darling", to anyone that will listen 😍. Rory was kind enough to let us get an up close and personal shot to show how parrots de-husk seed to get to the yummy goodness inside. If you look really closely you can even see his stocky tongue hard at work flipping and twisting the seed inside his beak.
💞 A very happy Mother's Day to all the wonderfully patient mummas out there 😊 Even though children may be demanding, noisy, annoying and needing all the attention all the time, they owe everything to their mum for sticking with them despite their constant ability to cause stress 😅 Don't forget Mum's, take time for yourself as our wonderful Gouldian Finch mumma is demonstrating 🥰 Although I think in our world leaving your screaming children behind is not quite the best approach to take 🤣
