Australia Zoo Home of The Crocodile Hunter Reviews

The Crocoseum show is unbelievable and I would be happy to pay the admission charge just to watch this show alone. The whole site is extremely tidy and well kept and unlike so many of these type of facility the toilets etc. are absolutely spotless. Well done Australia zoo, what a shame the "main man" is no longer around to enjoy and be proud of what he was so instrumental in building. Date: January-2008
