At Tasmania’s only 24-hour animal rescue service, guests can interact with recovering wombats, Tasmanian devils, quolls, koalas, echidnas, snakes, and emus. The entrance fee includes a 45-minute tour that combines Tasmanian devil feeding with koala and wombat petting. Along the way, travelers learn about the larger environmental threats that have sent these unique creatures to Bonorong. A handful of behind-the-scenes tours such as the Feeding Frenzy are available for those wanting to interact with additional wildlife, from cheeky cockatoos and rainbow lorikeets to sugar gliders, blue-tongued lizards, and the adorable Tasmanian bettong. No matter what you do, you’ll leave with a new appreciation for Tasmanian wildlife and a desire to help protect it.
Bonorong specialises in Tasmanian wildlife education, care and rehabilitation and are committed to the conservation of Tasmania’s threatened species and providing a first class and engaging visitor experience. You will not only get to see Tasmanian wildlife but also have the opportunity to get right up close to pat, and hand feed a range of our delightful furry friends while discovering their unique stories.
