Western Sydney Attractions - Featherdale Wildlife Park

The number of unique animals in Australia is one of the many reasons people visit the country (it is the home to over 7,000 different species that are native to Australia!) and what better way to experience these animals than through a wildlife park, an attraction of Western Sydney that simply cannot be passed up. The Featherdale Wildlife Park is located in the suburb, Doonside, and was officially opened to the public in 1972.

The park is a home to hundreds of different species, featuring many kinds of birds, reptiles, marsupials and mammals. The park holds multiple presentations, feedings and encounters everyday of the week, including the feeding of Dingos, Tasmanian Devils and Crocodiles.

Additionally, you could head over to the Kangaroo/Wallaby reserve and get up close to feed them personally, or, for an even more intimate experience, you could go to the Koala Sanctuary where you could literally cuddle a Koala or see Featherdale's superstar, Archer the Koala.
