While on a vacation to Australia, I visited the Taronga Zoo in Sydney and the Moonlit Sanctuary just outside of Melbourne. I thought both facilities had a very nice setup. The Taronga Zoo was especially impressive with the big cats (tigers, snow leopards, lions). The Moonlit Sanctuary focused mostly on marsupials (Please see other post), but had some very interesting dingos and lizards.

Thanks Rick. It was a toss up between 1 and 2 for me. They were taken almost one after the other. The shots are near where the trainer was preparing the food. Both shots have the "I want that" look. I'm just thankful that I wasn't "that".
