Entry to Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary in TasmaniaA complimentary bag of kangaroo food Access to daily guided toursAccess to daily guided toursOpportunity to take photos of the animalsTax (GST)At Bonorong Sanctuary, you’ll enter a world that’s home to some of Tasmania’s rarest animals. Located on the island’s southern edge, Bonorong is more than just a sanctuary—it’s the last refuge for creatures found nowhere else. Here, Tasmania’s most unique animals, including the famous Tasmanian devils, thrive in a safe and natural environment. This experience is as educational as it is inspiring, giving you a chance to learn about these remarkable creatures and how the sanctuary is helping protect them.
Want to meet a Tasmanian devil or spot an elusive eastern barred bandicoot? You’re in the right place! Bonorong is home to animals like quolls, emus, and native birds that’ll make you feel like you’ve stepped into a whole new world. Our passionate guides will share fascinating tales of each animal’s journey and survival. By visiting, you’re not just getting an up-close encounter; you’re actively supporting Tasmania’s wildlife!
Bonorong isn’t just a sanctuary—it’s the heart of Tasmania’s largest Wildlife Rescue Service. With a crew of volunteers ready to save animals in distress, Bonorong rescues everything from injured possums to orphaned wallabies. And guess what? Every single rescue is funded by you. Just by walking through our gates, you’re helping bring animals back to health and, whenever possible, back to the wild.
Forget what you know about zoos—Bonorong is about helping animals get back on their feet (or wings, or flippers)! You’ll learn all about Tasmania’s incredible wildlife and how Bonorong’s work is preserving this island’s precious ecosystem. With our Wildlife Hospital and conservation programs, we’re working every day to make sure these animals thrive. And the best part? You get to be part of the mission!

Come prepared, and make your visit to Bonorong an enjoyable and memorable one! Book your entry today, and get ready to meet Tasmania’s incredible wildlife up close.
Don’t worry about a thing! Bring along some extra snacks to keep your energy up throughout the day. Also, consider bringing credit card or cash for drinks or souvenirs.
We offer a variety of payment options, including cash, EFTPOS, and credit/debit cards, though please note there are no ATM or cash-out facilities on-site. Entry is free for children under 3, and most guests can comfortably explore the Sanctuary within an hour. If you’d like to join a public tour, please plan for an additional 30 minutes.
For the well-being of our animals, holding or cuddling is not permitted. However, on premium tours or private encounters, you may have the opportunity to gently pat certain animals, always at their discretion. All guests will receive a complimentary bag of kangaroo food upon entry. Our friendly Forester Kangaroos love a gentle scratch on the chest and are happy to feed from your hand! Please remember, though, not to share other human food with our wildlife as it can harm them.
Our gift shop features a variety of Tasmanian products and wildlife-themed gifts, as well as plant-based snacks, cold drinks, and ice cream. Food for the kangaroos is also available here. Additionally, the Bonorong Food Hut serves 100% plant-based meals and is open daily from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm. You’re welcome to bring your own food or picnic, with plenty of picnic tables around the Sanctuary and a BBQ area available for bookings.
Currently, public transportation isn’t available directly to the Sanctuary, but taxis are a convenient option. While Ubers are available in the Hobart CBD, we recommend scheduling a pickup if you plan to use one, as they may not be as readily available for your return trip.
Tickets are NON-REFUNDABLE.
Tickets are valid for one use before the “valid until” date printed on the ticket.
