Exploring Kangaroo Island with Exceptional Kangaroo Island
Just a sample of what you can expect when you tour with Exceptional Kangaroo Island! 🦘🐨🍷
Why did the Australian Sea-lion cross the road? 🦭
Recently, our guide Roberta was driving to collect guests and found this young Koala in the middle of the road, head bowed - clearly suffering from the heat. He was carefully moved into the shade and offered a welcome drink of water. After almost 10 minutes of drinking, he made his way up a tree to rest.
Koalas usually get enough water through their daily diet of 500-800g (1.0-1.8lb) of Eucalyptus leaves. However, occasionally, during periods of stress - illness or heat - Koalas seek water from a nearby river or freshwater lagoon.
We sometimes encounter koalas on the ground on hot days, indicating dehydration. In this case, this young male was recently weaned and is still adapting to living independently. We all know kids like that!

How beautiful is this!? 🦢
Taken at the mouth of the appropriately named Cygnet River, we were lucky enough to capture this footage of a family of Black Swans, with one Cygnet (young Swan) taking a break on Mum's back.

Echidna Train on Kangaroo Island
All aboard! 🚂·🚃·🚃·🚃·🚃
Check out this amazing (and rare) footage of an Echidna train, taken on Kangaroo Island a few days ago! 👀
What is an Echinda train, you may ask... it's a unique mating ritual, sometimes lasting up to 6 weeks, where a single female Echidna is followed by a number of males looking to mate with her. Over time, the train becomes shorter, and eventually the last remaining male is accepted as a breeding partner.
Thanks to our good friend Maren Norris, who shared some of her fantastic footage with us!
