Welcome, this is a new site where you will find information and photos about wildlife mainly from the South East Queensland area. Our target is to have a definitive guide to the wildlife across the country, and even a section for animals found outside of Australia. We will be adding to the photos and animals on the site all the time. If there are any animals that you would like to know more about then please do contact us and we'll see what we can do for you. In the early days many of the animals will be missing photos but we will be aiming to fill in as many of these as we can as quickly as possible. We will be focusing on the most commonly seen animals first.
