Kakadu Wetland

Walk through

Description

The Kakadu Wetlands contain a variety of native water foul including magpie gees, water hens, Brolgas and lots more.

Also at Kakadu Wetlands are the big saltwater crocs. Goliath is a fearsome 4.8metres long and 800 kilograms of sheer terror, the largest saltwater croc in captivity in Southern Queensland. His girlfriend Matilda is a just as ferocious at just 3.6 metres in length. For Goliath and Matilda, it was love at first bite and the snappy couple has given birth to five clutches of baby crocs since they were introduced. Goliath and Matilda have lunch at 1:30pm daily.


The Kakadu Cafe is also located here. -- Last edited by Nathan Alexander

Admit it, Crocs are cool. While they look stuffed, these suckers are real!!!!, all those teeth!!!! If you are there at 1:30pm you will get to touch baby-crocs after listening to everything you needed to know bout Krokidiles-101 A-Z. If you are so inclined, you can watch a sheep roundup and a dog mount a sheep and get too excited (Nice picture!) then a very stupid sheep shearing show. Really guys, this'll be next on the chopping block in axed shows. Good thing about it is that it's impossible to find. - Anton da hood
