Bonorong is a fantastic sanctuary! The staff are friendly and enthusiastic and make visitors feel welcome and engaged. The hands on aspect of the tour is great and it was nice to hear the individual stories of the animals. Hats off to the staff for all the wonderful work they are doing!

We had heard great things about the nocturnal feeding tour and the experience surpassed our expectations in every way! We will never forget it! Wombats, Tasmanian devils, kangaroos, koalas, and so many other animals...all with distinct personalities and each with a story at the sanctuary. So much different than seeing wildlife at the zoo. Owners and volunteers are so passionate... More

A visit to Hobart, Tasmania, should definitely include a visit to Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary. Upon entry, we were immediately surrounded by kangaroos and wallabies, probably attracted by the free food we were give for feeding.

Later in our trip we visited the Sydney... More

Roaming Kangaroos that take the food that the staff give you right from your hand. Wombats and Tasmanian Devils and Koalas and much more. Without parks like this the Tasmanian Devil population would be in real danger of extinction. It is obvious that the staff are dedicated to the rehabilation of the injured and orphaned animals and are very knowledgeable... More

We had a private night time feeding tour with Tony. I couldn't imagine a better guide! He is very knowledgeable about all the different animals (and about Tasmania and Australia, in general) and he really made our tour unforgettable and personal. Greg Irons, who owns and runs Bonorong, spoke to us and it is really amazing how much he and... More

We were very impressed by Corey, one of the staff here, who gave us a tour of the animals in the park. He was extremely enthusiastic and obviously loved the animals. Good to see they are doing something about the rehabilitation of the Tasmanian Devil.

The people, their enthusiasm and clear relationship with the animals
