Why you should visit Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary
Realize your dream: touch a koala!

Brisbane’s Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary was one of the few places in the world that allowed visitors to hold a koala. To keep the koalas happy, the keepers now hold the koalas while you stand next to them and give them a friendly pat. It’s definitely worth it!
