    I really think that The Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary is a hidden gem. Everyone seems to run off to the big theme parks and forgets about this little wonder. I have been a heap and it has never been super busy.

    _Blinky Bill_ is a classic Australian children's novel about an anthropomorphic koala. It was published in 1933 and is extremely dated. Besides which, _The Magic Pudding_ was miles better.

    Great video guys.
    Yeah it costs a lot of money to run a zoo or wildlife sanctuary, we all know sometimes how expensive it is with just one pet,
    I remember watching a show about the RSPCA (Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) here in Australia and the presenter said they need $2000 a DAY just to keep the organisation operating across the country.
    And there only income is as such The national body is funded in part by the Australian Government and relies on corporate sponsorship, fundraising events and voluntary donations for its income. Wow,... in part by the Government the rest is fundraising and donations.

    The difference between a zoo and animal sanctuary is the sanctuary take in care/ rehabilitate's and either releases or cares for the animals and a zoo buy and trade animals with other zoos.
