Fans of our fury and feathered friends are invited to the Byron Bay Wildlife Sanctuary this Saturday for a Family Fun day.
The day promises to be way off the cuteness scale, kicking off with a kids wildlife watercolour class at 9am for 4 to 12-year-olds. Think life drawing with koalas and roos as the models.

Tickets are $50 per person and are available from the sanctuary’s website or via the Facebook page.
The Wildlife Twins will then be presenting inside the sanctuary from 11am with their Wildlife show that includes four-legged celebrity Barty the wombat.
This will be followed by a fundraising BBQ from 12–1.30 raising money to help renovate the sanctuary’s reptile house.
The Sanctuary is home to more than 100 Australian wildlife animals, including kangaroos, a fabulous array of birds and reptiles including snakes and crocodiles, plus resident personalities Manda the wombat and Arnie the koala.
The sanctuary has bunnies and guinea pigs and a Chick House with lots of baby chicks that can be handled.
There are also a range of wildlife encounters that allow visitors to experience the animals up close.
