Backyard to bushland
The Aussie Backyard Adventure takes you deeper into the surprising world of the wildlife that lives alongside us every day. Guided by Taronga’s knowledgeable team, you’ll explore habitats inspired by the places we call home; gardens, parks, bushland edges, and discover how a rich variety of native species quietly depend on these spaces to survive.
Along the way, you’ll learn about the pressures these animals face in an increasingly urbanised world and how simple changes in our own backyards can make a meaningful difference, from creating safe shelter to supporting natural food sources. This experience also highlights the vital conservation work Taronga leads to protect local species, restore habitats and support healthy urban ecosystems.
Engaging, thought provoking and full of surprising insights, the Aussie Backyard Adventure encourages you to see your everyday surroundings in a new light and inspires actions that contribute to the long term wellbeing of Australia’s native wildlife.
