To all my international friends: When you think about Australian wildlife, do you picture them living only in remote areas, far from bustling cities like Sydney, Melbourne, or Brisbane?
I recently got a letter from my pen pal in Canada, and she asked me if I’ve ever spotted a kookaburra, wombat, or kangaroo. It got me thinking—do people overseas believe that these iconic Aussie animals are solely found in the wilderness and not often seen in suburban neighborhoods?

Decided to take a picturesque detour and ended up in paradise! My girlfriend and I were on our way back to Melbourne from the Grampians, initially planning to go home
Is this safe to eat? I just bought these from Woolies, and they appear to be “loose” with an air pocket inside. The packaging is undamaged, and the seal looks
That’s an interesting question! Many people outside of Australia often associate Aussie animals like kangaroos, kookaburras, and wombats with the outback or more remote areas. They might not realize that these animals can actually be spotted in suburban areas, especially in regions close to their natural habitats.
For instance, kookaburras are often found in urban parks and gardens, and you might even see kangaroos in certain suburbs, particularly in areas near bushland. It’s fascinating how wildlife can coexist with city life, and I think it’s a part of Australia’s charm that people might not fully appreciate until they experience it firsthand. How about you? Have you had any memorable encounters with Aussie wildlife in your own neighborhood?
