    Stopped in here on the way from Cradle mountain to Launceston. After seeing very little wildlife had to stop here to see the local animals. What an awesome little place. You can walk among the kangaroo's and feed them, but watch yourself, the big ones can get a little feisty so when they stand up on their tail its time to walk away. They suddenly become very big and very greedy. The feeding of the Tasmanian Devils was very cool. But parents beware this is not your regular feeding. The keeper had a bucket with food in it, the little Devils all came a running, they new what was about to happen. The keeper opened the bucket and... instead of chopped meat like most zoos, out comes a dead wallaby or dead baby kangaroo. There were a few gasps amongst the crowd and you could here parents warn the children not to watch. But hey this is wildlife, and hey we all watch it on TV with David Attenborough right. Anyway this is a great small reserve and they deserve all the support they can get to help the animals so please stop in and visit.

    What a great birthday present! My fab hubby booked us in to be Rangers for the day with Andrew, one of the keepers at Trowunna. We helped to clean the enclosures, check the animals, learn devil speak via sounds postures and mannerisms. After a provided lunch, we learned how to pick up and hold some Devils and use food offerings to get a good look at the individuals. We were fortunate enough to be part of a pairing of Mako and Meander. Mako looked so cute guarding his new girlfriend.I have been a longtime supporter of the Devil cause and was thrilled to be able to do a bit to put back into the amazing work these wonderful people are doing to secure the future of these crazy little critters. Please do make the detour to go to Mole Creek and visit.Thanks again to the team for an unforgettable day, aarrrffff!

    We'd seen good reviews of Trowunna previously, and we were not disappointed when we got there. It's a small place, but all the better for it! We followed the guided tour and feeding, and I could not recommend it more highly! The guide introduced all of our small group to the local animals (wombat, devils, wallabies, kangaroos) and encouraged us to interat with them. My wife got to cuddle a wombat! We got to stroke a young devil, then he showed us feeding time for these gorgeous little carnivores as 3 young males split a dead possum between themselves.Then we wandered over to see some wallabies and finally a massive number of young kangarooos in a forested section of the park. We could get really close and hand-feed and stroke them.Lovely day out at a place doing a massive service for local conservation. Will definitely come here again!

    No hesitation in giving this one 5 stars. I visited this park to learn more about the animals before doing the Overland Track (Cradle Mountain to Lake St Clair) in Tasmania. I learned loads and the staff were very helpful and knowledgeable, not just the guides, but also the woman at the till in the shop, who was simultaneously looking after a joey pademelon whose mother had been crushed by a car. Also to mention Annette (?) who has been caring for wombats for 20 years and is far more deserving of Tony Abbott's screwball knighthoods than the Duke of Edinburgh. I don't personally like the wildlife petting experience that all parks seem to offer, including Trowunna. That is, I do like it very much, but I honestly suspect the animals don't and, in my opinion, it restricts their chances of being successfully released back into the wild. I would rather it was not done, but don't blame Trowunna for doing the same as everywhere else as petting the animals seems to be an expectation of the Australian visiting public. In the afternoon guided tour, the Tasmanian devil selected for the petting show displayed very clear anxiety and I appreciated very much the guide letting him go back to his den and avoiding the ordeal. In summary, this is a place well worth visiting and supporting and would appear to be contributing significantly to the longterm protection of disease-freeTasmanian devil populations.

    Had been touring Tassie for three weeks and had never seen live devils until today. Good tour and explanation by the staff - let us see and touch a wombat and a hand reared devil. The feeding of the wild devils is not for the squeamish! Plenty to see and photograph - perfect end to Tassie trip

    Visited the wildlife park today and it exceeded our expectations. If you enjoy seeing animals in a more natural environment where you can get up close and take fantastic photos of all the animals, then this is the place for you. In a relaxed setting on a property, you can walk around at your own leisure. There are a few tours during the day which I highly recommend!! Got up close with an orphaned baby wombat. The tour was very informative and we watched the tasmanian devils being fed. These animals are lucky to have this sanctuary to live in. Make sure you grab a bag of feed from the office as the kangaroos came up to us and ate off our hand.

    Went to see the Tasmanian Devils and was not disappointed. Must go when the feeding is on as its really amazing. Nice to touch the devil as well as the wombat.

    A visit to Trowanna Wildlife Park would be disappointing without seeing the interactive demonstration. We arrived in time for the 13:00 feeding of the Tasmanian devils. The excellent opportunity given to our small group to see the feeding and to learn about the devils made our visit to the park. There was also the chance to see and feel the wombats and to learn about other animals in the park. It was also a chance to learn about the philosophy of the park. We discovered about the damaged animals cared for here. As we were leaving we saw a small young kangaroo being hand reared here. The animal had been rescued after it's mother was killed on a local road.Go to Trowanna but make sure you are there for the demonstration.

    Mmmmm Hardly any animals to see , a lot of enclosures empty . We found it quite expensive for what was on offer . Only highlight was feeding kangaroos ... Disappointed .....

    Amazing experience with Wombats, Devils & Kangaroo's. Be sure to come for interactive tour at 11AM or 1PM, great information. Then wander down where the Kangaroo's run free. Reserves like this depend on contributions or sponsors, help support them, they are doing amazing things for rehabilitation. Orphans are huge in Tasmania, road kill with so many nocturnal animals is a problem.

    Having visited Trowunna on a number of occasions over the years, it was sorry sight that met out eyes. The cages and areas are spread out a lot. The Wedge tailed eagle cage was covered with tree litter and the birds look very drab. (Yes we know that they cannot fly due to injury...but the cage should look better.)The baby wombats were delightful as were the Tassy Devils ripping apart a dead possum! We manged to see the spotted tail and Eastern Quolls OK but some were a little shy.With a little effort this place could look and be really good again!The big advantage is it is near to the Moles Creek Caves!

    We had an amazing experience at Trowunna Wildlife Sanctuary! The group leader was fantastic at explaining about all the wonderful work the sanctuary does and all the rescue missions they have. She was great at showing us all the animals and letting us get close and personal with them. We then walked around and found ourselves surrounded by over 50 kangaroo. They were so friendly! We were able to touch them, take photos with them, pet them. It was an incredible experience to be in the wild with all the kangaroo. The park also has all the animals that are native to Tasmania, including birds and various species of wallaby. They do amazing work to save and rescue hurt or orphaned animals! I recommend this to everyone who finds themselves in the Mole Creek area!

    Fantastic Place,we got to pat a Tasmanian Devil, hand feed a Wombat and Kangaroos.This Wildlife Park is worth a visit. And value for money.kids are happy!

    This park has two published feeding times and we just made it in time for the second one of the day. So glad we did. It's a bit of a fierce exposure to see the devils feeding, they are like "mammalian piranhas" eating every single bit of a dead possum. The guide was nice enough to pick up a devil and holding the animal's head securely, offered the chance to touch the fur of the devil which was surprisingly soft. We also enjoyed our interaction with a mama kangaroo and her joey along with a wombat that was sleeping like a baby in the gift shop area.
