Its a great place, I agree. 18 months ago I visited and a croc leaped out at my dad from its pond when he walked up to the fence and a spotted python bit me while I was holding it. Lol the reptiles there obviously hate us.

They have a female there that likes to protect its nest in the corner of its cage near the walkway. She can give you a small fright and require emergency dry-cleaning

When I was backpacking I was told to steer well clear of that town so I did.
