点评:Drove to Featherdale Wildlife Park in a Simba hire car. Easy drive from Sydney and plenty of parking when we arrived around 8:30am. We bought our tickets in advance, so entry was quick and easy.
Really enjoyed this visit. The park is well maintained and the animals looked healthy and well cared for. What I enjoyed most was getting so close to the animals. Being able to feed and pat the wallabies while they were freely roaming around was such a nice experience. They were so comfortable around people, which made it even more enjoyable.
There was plenty to see, including koalas, kangaroos, quokkas, emus, dingoes, Tasmanian devils and penguins. I especially liked seeing the koalas and kangaroos up close. It was also nice just walking around and discovering the different birds and animals along the way.
The staff were friendly and easy to talk to. We asked one staff member how he could tell the different penguins apart and remember which ones he had already fed. Really interesting to hear him explain it. You could tell he genuinely knew and cared about the animals.
We also saw school groups visiting for their activities. It was actually quite heartwarming to see the kids so interested and excited about the animals and wildlife.
Overall, we had a really enjoyable time at Featherdale. It felt more personal than just walking around a zoo because you can actually get quite close to the animals. If you’re visiting Sydney and want to experience Australian wildlife up close, I’d definitely put Featherdale on the list.
翻译:我们乘坐Simba租来的车前往Featherdale野生动物园。从悉尼出发很轻松就能到达,早上8点半左右我们到达时,停车场也空位充足。我们提前购买了门票,因此入园过程快速又顺利。
这次参观真的令人愉快。园区维护得很好,动物们看起来也都健康且受到悉心照料。最让我开心的是能够如此近距离地接触它们。看着袋鼠们在园区里自由漫步,还能亲自喂食并抚摸它们,真是一次美妙的体验。它们在人面前表现得非常自在,这让整个体验更加愉快。
那里有很多可看的东西,包括树袋熊、袋鼠、短尾矮袋鼠、鸸鹋、野狗、塔斯马尼亚恶魔以及企鹅。我特别喜欢近距离观察树袋熊和袋鼠。只是四处走走、沿途发现各种鸟类和动物也很有趣。
工作人员很友善,也易于交谈。我们问了一位工作人员,他是如何区分不同的企鹅,又如何记住哪些企鹅已经喂过食的。听他解释真的非常有趣。从他的话语中能感受到,他真正了解这些动物,也真心关爱它们。
我们还看到一些学校组织的学生团体前来参加活动。看到孩子们对动物和野生动物表现出如此浓厚的兴趣与热情,真是令人心头一暖。
总的来说,我们在Featherdale度过了非常愉快的时光。这种体验比单纯在动物园里逛一圈要更具互动性,因为你可以真正靠近那些动物。如果你前往悉尼并想近距离接触澳大利亚的野生动物,我绝对推荐把费瑟代尔野生动物园列入行程清单。
