Kangaroo Island travels

Kangaroo Island is the third largest island in Australia after Tasmania and Melville Island. It is about 190km from Penneshaw to Remarkable Rocks. The Doc travelled almost 3,000km on the Island. A map of his travels:

Part 1 of his Trip is here. Part 2 will be posted in the next day or so.

New South Wales’ Jurassic Park

This is a big one.

“THOUSANDS of hectares of national park land across the State will be set aside for locally extinct animals such as the bilby and numbat under an ambitious NSW government plan to return the Australian bush as it was a century ago.”

Read the article here, some great pictures of rare Australian small mammals, several of the which The Doc saw on his recent trip. The Project is being run in conjunction with Australian Wildlife Conservancy. It is pleasing to see the NSW Government taking effective action to help save these critically endangered animals.
