Habitats
Sorry, you must have Flash installed to view the attraction galleries.
Our brand new Kakadu Gorge habitat has been modelled on a dramatic and beautiful gorge in tropical Kakadu National Park.
Sheer cliffs of red sandstone loom over a quiet billabong, complete with waterfalls. Colourful finches fly across the water’s surface, catching your eye, and you may even notice shoals of small fish cruising past the window. The experience is fully immersive - it almost feels as though you're standing in the gorge itself, chest deep in water.
…which can be unnerving, for just under the surface of this seemingly placid scene lurks Kakadu Gorge’s main inhabitant - a giant 5 metre Saltwater Crocodile called Rex. Not only can you see this massive predator within just inches from under water, on the upper level you can get a top-down view as well, both inside (if you’re game!) and outside of the enclosure.
There’s also an interactive area for children and adults alike, where visitors can learn about the habits and history of crocodiles through a number of games and features.
Use the menu on the left to learn more about this exhibit and Rex.
