Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary, Zoo in Gold Coast, Australia
Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary extends across green spaces along the Gold Coast, offering visitors encounters with Australian native animals including koalas and kangaroos.
In 1947, beekeeper Alex Griffiths established this sanctuary to protect lorikeets, which evolved into a center for Australian wildlife conservation and research.
The sanctuary contributes to Queensland's heritage through educational programs about indigenous wildlife and traditional connections between animals and Aboriginal cultures.
The sanctuary operates daily from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, with direct access via public transport from Gold Coast Airport and Surfers Paradise.
Visitors participate in scheduled rainbow lorikeet feeding sessions twice daily, where hundreds of wild birds descend to receive nectar from guests.
