MEET THE LOCALS 🦘 Why Habitat Noosa is Roo Heaven!

Let’s talk Kangaroos 🦘🇦🇺 the OG Aussie icons. 

At Habitat Noosa in Elanda Point, Queensland, it’s a Roo party 24/7 with over 150 Eastern Grey Kangaroos calling this ecocamp home. If you’ve ever wanted to see these hoppy legends up close & personal ‘in the wild’, this is your ultimate chance. Actually, scratch that – it’s 💯% guaranteed! Whether it’s sunrise or sunset, our Roos are chilling here every day living their best lives.

This nature-lovers paradise 📍 is only a 25 minute drive from Noosa on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland 🌏 🇦🇺 Australia.

Kangaroo Paradise: Meet the Eastern Grey Kangaroo 

Ok, here’s the deal with Eastern Grey Kangaroos (Macropus giganteus). They’re basically the supermodels of the Australian animal world. The males can hit a massive 2.3 metres from head to tail and weigh as much as 95kg (200lbs+). Talk about big energy!

During the mornings 🦘🌅 you’ll sometimes find them chilling by Lake Cootharaba, cooling off in style. By the afternoon 🦘🌱 they’re all about the grass buffet, feasting like it’s a never-ending picnic until the sun dips below the horizon. They’ve got this whole laid-back vibe 🌴 nailed down.

And let’s not forget their quirky communication skills. They cluck like chickens when they’re happy and thump their tails like a drumroll if there’s danger. Seriously, these guys are nature’s coolest drama 👸 queens.

Roo Life at Habitat Noosa 

Our everglades ecocamp ⛺️ isn’t just a home – it’s a kangaroo dreamland. Picture this: wide open grasslands, shady spots under towering trees 🌳 and a lakeside hangout perfect for their morning cool-down routine. It’s like the ultimate VIP resort 🏝️⛱️ for Roos.

But don’t let the kangaroos steal the whole show. Their neighbours are just as entertaining. You might also spot got cheeky echidnas 🦔 waddling around like they own the place, monitor lizards 🦎 strutting their stuff and kookaburras 🐦 🤣 laughing at their own jokes. Every corner of Habitat Noosa feels like a scene out of a nature 🌿 🎥 doco.

The Bigger Picture: Kangaroo Conservation 

Sure, the kangaroos at Habitat Noosa are thriving but not all mobs across Australia or South East Queensland are as lucky. Urban sprawl and habitat loss have made life tricky for these iconic animals. In some areas, ‘mobs’ have dwindled to just a handful of Roos. It’s a tough reality for such resilient creatures.

That’s why places like Habitat Noosa are so important. By preserving natural spaces, minimising development and coexisting with wildlife, we’re giving kangaroos and their quirky companions a fighting chance 🤞🏽 to keep hopping into the future.
