Look at those beautiful Dingoes 😍🐕 ​ ​When visiting Central Australia, it's likely that you might see a few Dingoes roaming about the bush. How can you tell its a dingo? Look out for its golden or ginger coat, white markings on their chests, tail tips and feet—described as socks.  ​ ​Did you know that Dingoes have owl like abilities, and that they can turn their heads almost 180 degrees in each direction 😮 ​ ​The alicespringsdesertpark has a Dingo enclosure, where you can learn about these beautiful creatures 7 days a week. Don't forget to keep your eyes peeled when exploring the #RedCentreNT, and please do not be tempted to feed any animals if you do see them on your travels! It helps keep wild animals, wild 😚 ​ ​Thanks for the share siri.omberg 🐕

ALICE SPRINGS DESERT PARK WAS BETTER THAN WE EXPECTED!! We had seen the website, heard some great reviews, but seeing this place in person was even better! We arrived around 10am when it was still nice and cool. Entry was $74 for 2 adults (our children were free). They had an itinerary with different showtimes throughout the day from Bird Feeding to Bilbies playing in their Nocturnal House, Free Flying Birds, The Red Kangaroo show, The Emu & the Boomerang show! There was so much on at #AliceSpringsDesertPark There was wild plants growing all along the bush walk ways throughout the park that you could stop and read about, and incredibly presented habitats including Desert Rivers, Woodland & Sand Country. We loved Sand Country, walking out on the red dirt, through the bush, seeing all the animals, smelling all the amazing smells of the bush. AND the Nocturnal House where we seen Snakes, Spiders, Mice, Bilbies, Lizards, Bats, and more! There is a cafe for you to enjoy some lunch & shaded areas for you to stop and rest if needed! We highly recommend stopping and heading to this place in Alice Springs! You will see the beautiful range behind the Park where it just makes you feel like you are truely walking in the bush enjoying the animal experiences! It blew us away!

This is Rory 🦅 Rory found himself residing at the alicespringsdesertpark after a bad wing injury that hasn’t been able to heel deeming him unable to fly anymore. He’s now a happy, loved, spoilt and sooky boy (omg watching him sooky snuggle with his handler made me DIE! 😭😍) living his best life ♥ Pleasure to meet such a stunning bird ✨ #inspired #dreamjob #birdhandler

Did you know that Emus can go without food for 2 months? Once she has laid her large green eggs, the father will take over the incubation. In this time he will not leave to drink or eat and does not leave the nest for two months.

The Desert Death Adder. One of the most deadliest snakes in the world can be seen in the Nocturnal House alicespringsdesertpark. They use their grub like tail-tip as a decoy to ambush their prey and then they strike! 🐍 . . . #hotelonthemall #aurorahotelsaustralia #auroraalicesprings #whereadventurebegins #toddmall #alicesprings #visitalicesprings #northernterritory #NT #australia_nt #seeaustralia #holidayherethisyear #travel #alicespringsdesertpark #snakes #desertdeathadder #snakesofaustralia
