      The same goes for wild koalas - don't ever attempt to go near one. They are wild animals - I know of people who have been mauled by their lovely claws!

      We went to Cleland also. It's an amazing place and the staff are soooooooooooo friendly. Highlight for me was feeding 3 kangaroos by hand and a emu at the same time! We were also lucky enough to see a wombat, and its joey poke it's head outside her pouch. We wer alone in the field with the 'roos' and just as I was taking a picture of a female, taking foood from my wife, a joey peeped his/her head out to see what was going on - Priceless!! as for the staffy-cum-min--bear tasmanian devil, I see what you mean!! It runs around like it's on speed or something. One bloke next to me was trying to call it by snapping his fingers. the guide suggested that he didn't do that as it's bite humungously exceeds the pressure of a bit from a pit bull. they really do look evil tho don't they?
      couldn't get used to those bandicoots running around your feet either. Pauline had her phot taken with a Koala which was the highlight for her.

      Have to admit I am in the group of meanies who burst out laughing at this!! sorry as it could have been serious.

      Have to say having watched the talk and feeding session of the devil at Cleland I would never go anywhere it might reach me as I saw it crunch up a kanagroo tail, hard bits and all in not very much time!! A lucky escape.

      We have done the night walks at Warrawong Sanctuary twice. Once in 1995 and then in 2006. We can highly recommend them especially for children over 5. We couldn't believe how many animals come out at night. Even saw a platypus. Cleland is nice too.

      When we went to Cleland the girls wanted their photo taken with a Koala and i got the short straw!! Everyone in our party took one step back and I was left there, with the short straw. When we got to the front of the queue they changed the Koala as it was getting tried,and brought out something that can only be described as a relation to a silver back gorilla, it was massive.
      So there i was holding this massive koala smiling through gritted teeeth and aching arms from holding this monster, and then it decided to to sneeze on me
      Great!! Oh the lady said its never done that before. "Really" was my response in my most sarcastic tone.
      So I had aching arms, sore teeth and now koala snot in my hair!!
      When Paul had finished laughing which was ages, he said "Hmmm you smell minty!!"

      I cant tell you my response as it would be too rude
