This is a list of all species held on show in Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary on my visit on the 13th of June 2016. Animals only visible in shows are marked with *. There were also many species of wild birds and reptiles that I saw in the zoo that are not included in this list. Mammals: Koala Tasmanian Devil Eastern Grey Kangaroo Red Kangaroo Swamp Wallaby Tammar Wallaby Brush-tailed Rock-wallaby Red-necked Wallaby Goodfellow's Tree Kangaroo Grey-headed Flying-fox Short-beaked Echidna Hairy-nosed Wombat Dingo Quokka Domestic (Merino) Sheep 'Golden' Brushtail Possum (Trichosurus vulpecula fuliginosus) * Long-nosed Potoroo Yellow-bellied Glider Squirrel Glider Feathertail Glider Spinifex Hopping Mouse Water Rat Greater Bilby Ghost Bat Reptiles: Brisbane River Turtle Freshwater Crocodile Saltwater Crocodile Green Iguana Mary River Turtle Perentie Amethystine Python Water Dragon Mertens' Water Monitor Eastern Long-necked Turtle Veiled Chameleon Green Tree Python Broad-headed Snake Common Death Adder Lace Monitor Boa Constrictor Knob-tailed Gecko (Nephrurus amyae) Frilled Lizard Coastal Carpet Python Birds: Bar-shouldered Dove Rainbow Lorikeet Emerald Dove Black-winged Stilt Pied Imperial Pigeon Sacred Kingfisher Luzon Bleeding-heart Dove Topknot Pigeon Chestnut-breasted Mannikin Wonga Pigeon Brown Cuckoo-dove Buff-banded Rail Satin Bowerbird Scaly-breasted Lorikeet Emu Southern Cassowary Eastern Grass Owl Tawny Frogmouth Bush Stone-curlew Austrlian King Parrot Galah Superb Parrot Crimson Rosella Princess Parrot Gang-gang Cockatoo Little Corella Musk Lorikeet Major Mitchell's Cockatoo Bourke's Parrot Mulga Parrot Cockatiel Regent Parrot Rufous Owl* Black-breasted Buttonquail Little Lorikeet Noisy Pitta Rose-crowned Fruit-dove Wompoo Fruit-dove Eastern Whipbird Red-browed Fig-parrot Red-faced Parrot-finch Black-necked Stork Brahminy Kite Pacific Black Duck White-eyed Duck Wandering Whistling Duck Plumed Whistling Duck Glossy Black Cockatoo Hooded Robin Orange-bellied Parrot Star Finch Black-throated Finch Superb Fairy-wren White-browed Woodswallow Squatter Pigeon Budgerigar Chiming Wedgebill Regent Bowerbird Red-tailed Black Cockatoo* Black-breasted Eagle* Black Kite* Barking Owl* Australian Pelican* Wedge-tailed Eagle* Blua-and-gold Macaw* Green-winged Macaw* Amphibians: White-lipped Tree-frog Liem's Tinker Frog Spotted Tree Frog Cane Toad Magnificent Tree Frog Fish: Archerfish Freshwater Stonefish Australian Lungfish Four unsigned rainbowfishes (http://www.zoochat.com/60/four-rainbowfish-species-452343/) Scientific names can be provided on request.
The zoo has approximately 115 species and from photos appears to be well worth visiting, but of note is that since the park's location is in a tourist hot-spot the admission fees are staggering. It is $49 per adult and that does not include the cost of parking, lunch, "cuddling a koala" and many other potential fees. A lot of visitors would be families shelling out a few hundred dollars for a visit.
Yes, I would say it's worth visiting and although it is expensive, everything in Gold Coast is. I assume you've seen my pictures and species list of David Fleay Wildlife Park which is a far smaller zoo and admission there is still over $20 per adult. I was lucky to only have to pay $20 to go in to Currumbin due to a deal that they had from their website. (Also note that I have just noticed I have missed off one species from this list - Southern Cassowary)
Might be worth noting that David Fleay is government run, while Currumbin is owned by the National Trust of Queensland, which may help explain price differences. Overall though, all attractions in that part of Australia are exceedingly expensive, and it is well worth searching for vouchers and deals, which are numerous.
Is it weird that they have a non-Australian species of tree kangaroo? Are Lumholz's or Bennett's tree kangaroos not represented in captivity?
There are a few Lumholtz's around in captivity, no Bennett's as far as I know. I believe there is a breeding programme in Australian Zoos for Goodfellow's though.
David, there are breeding programs for both Goodfellow's (a WAZA Global effort) and for Lumholtz's tree kangaroo (a native ZAA / ARAZPA native species program). The former is more or less all Australian and the latter more or less restricted to Queensland zoos.
