Billabong Sanctuary opened March 1985 situated in Nome Queensland, from the beginning the attention was on fostering awareness of conservation of native animals and their habitats. School groups flocking in and local families came to visit.

Over the years more and more animals were added. The Billabong Sanctuary is home to outstanding breeding colonies of koalas, crocodiles, Eclectus parrots, kangaroos, squirrel gliders, heaps of lizards and snakes and red-tailed black cockatoos. We are recognised as an ideal outdoor classroom for local and regional school, a fully accredited Advanced Ecotourism Attraction and award winning park over the years.
