The "croc hunter"


We went to Australia Zoo after leaving Brisbane last weekend, and it was pretty impressive. There were tons of animals and shows that were well done, and interactions in several of exhibits. We watched demonstrations on awareness and handling of snakes, tigers, exotic birds and crocodiles, all of which were fascinating.






Also got a picture of us with a Burmese Python, which I'm quite impressed with myself for doing :) If anyone knows the fear I've had of snakes since I as early as I can remember, you might not believe me...so thought I'd better chuck up a picture for evidence!!






We got to feed elephants too! The koalas and elephants were my favourite :)
