    My wife and I recently visited The Australia Zoo in Queensland Australia. We purchased a "Tasmanian Devil Experience" for $80 Aus which allowed her to enter the Devil's enclosure and play with and hold 3 devils for around 40 minutes. They only sell 2 tickets per day and we couldn't believe our luck to have gotten 1 of the tickets. The Devil's were all hand-raised and very tame. It was amazing!

    Kangaroos at Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary

    While we were in Brisbane we went to Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary which was also amazing! This is a video of their Kangaroo and Wallaby petting area. The animals were very tame and they loved to be scratched on the chest. Of course they didn't mind the free food either. :)
