Overview

If you have a soft spot for furry, feathered or finned fauna, find an organisation where you can do a bit of good while on holiday in Tropical North Queensland. Tolga Bat Hospital in the Atherton Tablelands offers guided tours of its flying fox and microbat rescue and rehabilitation centre. You can find out about the six species of marine turtle that dwell in the reef at the Cairns Turtle Rehab Centre.

Wildlife Habitat offers the opportunity to swim (safely) with crocs, have brekkie with birds and even take a nocturnal 'wildnight' tour. The organisation also runs the Tropical Animal Rescue Centre that looks after displaced and injured native Australian wildlife. Want to observe the wildlife in its natural habitat? Head into the Daintree with FNQ Nature Tours for an afternoon walk as the rainforest comes alive, or bring binoculars for birdwatching in tropical wetlands.
