Experience Native Wildlife at Bonorong

Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary offers a special experience for travellers interested in Tasmania's rare and endangered species. Located close to Hobart, this sanctuary protects animals now extinct on mainland Australia and creates opportunities for meaningful wildlife encounters in an educational setting.

Meet Iconic Australian Animals

Explore the tranquil grounds where kangaroos roam freely and interact with visitors. You’ll have the chance to hand-feed them using provided kangaroo feed, experiencing the gentle nature of these iconic marsupials up close. Wander further to observe the shy Tasmanian bettong and the Eastern quoll—species unique to Tasmania.

See the Tasmanian Devil and More

The sanctuary is a haven for Tasmanian devils, with daily feeding sessions where guests can watch and learn about these endangered carnivores and their important place in the ecosystem. Knowledgeable staff share insights into their quirky personalities and the critical conservation work being done to help protect them.

Join Guided Tours

Bonorong’s expert-led wildlife tours run four times daily, each lasting 45 minutes. On these tours, keepers introduce visitors to resident animals, share stories about rescue efforts and conservation, and discuss the threats faced by native wildlife. These tours are all included with your admission.

Family Friendly and Educational

Kids and adults alike enjoy meeting wombats, koalas and other rescued animals cared for by dedicated staff. The sanctuary provides an engaging, fun and hands-on learning environment, making it a popular and enriching outing for families.

Support Conservation

Your visit also supports Tasmania’s largest 24/7 wildlife rescue service, as every entry ticket contributes to ongoing work caring for injured, orphaned and endangered animals.
