Gondwana Rainforest Sanctuary, Nature reserve in Queensland, Australia
The Gondwana Rainforest Sanctuary contains numerous native plant species from prehistoric times, with a network of walking trails through dense forest vegetation.
The sanctuary operated as a zoological facility from 1992 to 2005 at South Bank Parklands in Brisbane, displaying 700 Australian animals in naturalistic settings.
The facility presented educational exhibits about Australian wildlife evolution and indigenous connections to the land through interpretive displays and guided programs.
The former sanctuary space has been transformed into retail establishments and public green areas, now part of the Riverside Green development.
Large animated dinosaur models enhanced the educational experience by demonstrating the prehistoric connections of Australian flora and fauna.
