Dr Harry visits the Australian Reptile Park in lockdown

There is so much going on! - by Dr. Harry Cooper
  • 08 Oct 2021

While the Australian Reptile Park might be temporarily closed to the public at the moment due to Covid restrictions, the keepers are on hand to care for the animals and run daily online information sessions, so you can stay in touch as well. As Dr Harry finds out, there has definitely been a lot of interesting news to share at the park as we follow up on the arrival of a swamp load of American alligators.

Part 2

Despite its name, the Australian Reptile Park isn’t just about reptiles. After last week, when Dr Harry checked in on the eponymous animals, this week he’s getting updates on the cuter, cuddlier new residents; Lucky the dingo, Elsa the koala and even a couple of Tasmanian devils. Dr Harry learns how the park’s breeding program is helping these animals to thrive amidst all that life throws at them and in the case of the Tassie devil, how they’re reintroducing the species to the mainland.
