Todays Fast Fact Friday is all about Green Iguanas!

🦎 Green Iguanas can voluntarily drop their tails in order to escape predators. This is known as caudual autonomy.

🦎 Green Iguanas are able to leap down from trees that are 15 meters tall without injury! Their bodys are built to absorb the shock, utilising their back legs to grab onto tree branches to lessen the fall.

🦎 Green Iguanas will extend the flap of skin underneath their chin, known as a dulap, as a form of non-verbal communication. Their dulap is used to thermoregulate, ward off predators and to impress the ladies.

Come down today to meet Shrek, our resident Green Iguana, in person. Book your tickets on our website now!

Let`s learn about Lace Monitors!

🦎 Lace monitors are the second largest lizard in Australia after the Perentie.

🦎 Lace monitors come in 2 different colour forms; standard and bells phase. Bells phase lace monitors have thick yellow and black bands.

🦎 Lace monitors lay their eggs inside termite mounds. This helps to incubate the eggs before the mother comes back to dig them up when they hatch.

Did you know that all monitors in the world are related! They are all in the same genus, Varanus. Check out three different iconic Australian Monitors here at the Zoo, the Lace Monitor, the Heath Monitor and the Largest Monitor in Australia, the Perentie!

FAST FACT FRIDAY

Burmese pythons:
🐍 They can get up to 5m long and over 75kg
🐍 They are great swimmers and can stay underwater for up to 30 minutes
🐍 Being pythons they do not have venom and will kill their prey by constricting them.

We have 2 Burmese Pythons here at Halls Gap Zoo and in the summer months you may be lucky enough to see us take Doug out for a walk and truly get an appreciation for his size even though he is only a tiny 35kg he still takes at least 3 keepers to carry him.

🌧️ Rainy Days at the Zoo 🌧️
While the rain might send most people indoors life at the zoo carries on but we are just a little soggier! ☔
Some of our animals actually enjoy a good drizzle eg. The Water Buffalo make sure the job gets done properly while others enjoy it from the comfort of their shelter.

For the zookeepers, rainy days mean a bit more mud on the boots and suddenly everyone needs to read SOP’s 🤪
They make sure everyone stays cozy and well fed and that all the shelters are snug and dry.
So even when the rain pours, there’s always plenty of life and laughter behind the scenes at the zoo!

✨✨✨FAST FACT FRIDAY✨✨✨

Brush Tailed Rock Wallaby:

🦘 As the name would suggest, these wallabies live in shrubbed areas close to rocks and cliffs, which they will escape to when hiding from predators.

🦘The southern brush-tailed rock wallaby is critically endangered. Victoria has roughly 50 individuals left in the wild. In 2008 a few individuals were reintroduced back into the wild in the Grampians National Park and are closely monitored.

🦘Brush-tailed rock wallabies live in groups with one male and many females. When a male joey is born, it will live with the group until maturity and then disperse to find a new group.

We have 10 Brush Tailed Rock Wallabies here at Halls Gap Zoo and they are amazing at hiding in their rocky habitat try to spot them all next time you are visiting.
