Wildlife Habitat

The award-winning Wildlife Habitat, located in Port Douglas, provides visitors with a chance to experience the wildlife of Wetlands, Rainforest, Savannah and Woodlands environments up close in an open and interactive setting.

Experience a sumptuous Breakfast with the Birds and join a guided tour with one of their experienced Wildlife Keepers. You can even cuddle a Koala and have your photo taken.

As you wander through the park’s four environments, you can hand-feed kangaroos and wallabies, observe cassowaries and Lumholtz’s Tree Kangaroos, as well as swim with saltwater crocodiles in the brand new CrocArena.

Their Swim With The Salties crocs, Big Al and Ton – fresh from Australia Zoo, are not for the faint-hearted. With the bigger of the two crocs at a size of just over 4.3 metres long, weighing in at nearly 400 kilograms, these boys are a sight to behold!

Located at the entrance to Port Douglas, local shuttle buses operate regularly from Port Douglas to their door. If travelling from Cairns, Wildlife Habitat is located 50 minutes north along the scenic Captain Cook Highway.
