Alice Springs was filled with the smell of petrichor recently, declaring the first rain shower in over 5 months. The rain fell steadily, realising the first signs of our wildflower germination. Wildflower season in Central Australia is dependant on rainfall and temperatures harmonising for perfect conditions. The wildflower garden in Desert Park Sand Country is quite a magnificent display (usually May – September). At the base of a significant bloodwood tree at the foothills of the MacDonnell Ra

Two baby thorny devils were born at the Alice Springs Desert park in January. Weighing just 3 grams when they hatched, they began their diet of black ants at five days of age and will take years to reach full size. Zookeeper Carly Humphrys told ABC Alice Springs that their jerky, robot-like walk is a defence mechanism, to make them move more like leaves in the wind. | ABC Alice Springs

Meet "Ina" the echidna. This little cutie was brought to Alice Springs Desert Park at only 3-4 weeks old (back in 2020) and has grown and thrived with the care and love given by the dedicated team here. Do you know 'Ina' is short for Inarlenge which means 'echidna' in local Arrernte language? Give us a 👍 if you'd like to meet this little four-footed friend! | Northern Territory – Australia

Good winds make for great eagle flying! Wedge-tailed eagles can often be seen soaring high above the West MacDonnell Ranges using the warm thermal air to gain height and save energy. They can reach heights of over two kilometres scanning for any potential prey items down below. Our Nature Theatre keepers often get to fly our trained eagles in this gorgeous habitat - if you’re lucky you might get to see them stooping down to the stage during one of our Free-Flying Bird Displays, currently on dail

Our team has attended a Nocturnal Tour at Alice Springs Desert Park and we found echidnas absolutely fascinating! 🦔 This is what we learned about them: Echidnas are solitary animals and spend much of their time foraging. They are insectivores, mainly feeding on ants and termites. They dig into the ground using their powerful claws and snout. They don’t have teeth - they use their tongues to grind up food 🍽 There are a lot more interesting stories about desert animals waiting to be shared at th
