Caversham Wildlife Park, Wildlife sanctuary in City of Swan, Australia
Caversham Wildlife Park is a wildlife sanctuary in Western Australia that houses native animals including koalas, wallabies, wombats, and Tasmanian devils in naturalistic enclosures. The grounds feature landscaped areas organized into different zones for various animal species.
The park was established to create a protected space for native Australian wildlife species and advance conservation efforts in Western Australia. This marked an important step in the region's work to preserve animal populations and educate visitors about the importance of wildlife protection.
Daily demonstrations showcase traditional Australian farming practices such as sheep shearing, whip cracking, and stock handling. These presentations give visitors insight into work methods that continue to shape rural life in the region.
The grounds are easy to navigate on foot, with well-connected animal areas and plenty of rest spots along the pathways. Visiting in the early morning is best, as animals are more active and the weather is cooler than later in the day.
In Molly's Farm area, visitors can have direct contact with buffalo, llamas, and deer while learning about farming practices. This hands-on experience sets it apart from typical animal viewing in standard enclosures.
