  • Kangaroo Sanctuary

    June 11, 2021 in Australia ⋅ 🌙 16 °C

    NT
    The Kangaroo Sanctuary in Alice Springs rescue and raise orphaned baby kangaroos, to hopefully be put back into the wild.
    They have a large sanctuary for injured or too tame kangaroos that are not able to be released back into the wild.
    NT do not have a kangaroo oversupply like NSW as the NT have plenty of dingos unlike NSW.
    This is where the famous Roger the kangaroo was rescued and raised.
    Google Roger the Kangaroo and Kangaroo Dundee. The BBC did a docco on Roger and Brolga (real name Chris Barnes).

  • Finke Desert Race

    Perfect bush camping where the entertainment comes to you.👌
    Such a fun event, good vibes and plenty of partying!
    I think every stereotype with an event like this was smashed! First night, MASSIVE bush rave opposite us, full set up with big speakers, huge bonfire, fairy lights in the trees, karaoke machine and about 20 Indian guys, such a good set up - and they were SO LOUD! All good fun and not what we had expected at all. 😂Read more
