I would carry Jack all day long little cutie! Awesome vid btw

[@seanchristie7150]

Ctacking episode, what a fantastic concept, like a mix between a zoo and a safari park. Love the 'Nuggasauris'. Definitely on the to do list

Great ep guys and music to go with it well done

[@BigOzExplorers]

Thanks Dan 😁😁

Wow what a awesome day you all had. I have to say you fellas are such good parents, you involve the kids in everything and that’s why your girl is so amazing, she’s polite and learning so much, and look how good she is with Jack, I know they probably have there spats, that’s normal. Be proud. Loved the zoo, it’s the only one I haven’t done yet, plans to do it May next year.

[@Faulty_Relic]

Cutting a rhino's horn off won't kill them. It is the same as fingernails and hair, they are removed to stop poacher's.

[@BigOzExplorers]

It can kill them with infection, loss of blood etc by a poacher… not the cutting itself that would kill. Maybe I wasn’t specific enough 😊

[@johnpitt2742]

i think you have spent to long at the zoo

[@brewey0454]

You should head to Wisemans Ferry it’s a beautiful place Northwest Sydney

[@barrydyer6543]

Like the big oz bench, yes please let’s all go back to Thailand,

[@johnpitt2742]

we can even see it is cool when you are wearing your hoodes

[@goggle123]

KFC I don’t care but I love it

[@brentmcd12]

cool zoo episode all the animals 🌳🦖

[@caltravels9454]

Animals that pace back and forth in captivity, is usually a very bad sign, means they are not taken care of well enough, or they know they are about to be fed. like you said.

[@BigOzExplorers]

Zoos can be so touch and go hey, you don’t know unless you’re behind the scenes really.. but in saying that this place was amazing in so many ways so I doubt they would be mistreated in anyway 🥰

[@caltravels9454]

@@BigOzExplorers agreed

[@ChappysTravels]

it certainly is a great place we did a day there with the grand children and walked including a pram and baby, we were loaded up like a camel train but had the best day and I mean a full day

[@markedwards9879]

mmmmmmmm KFC

[@caltravels9454]

Back when I was 14, got to go to Taronga Zoo Sydney, it was amazing, towards the end though, saw a gorilla in basically a concrete cell with one rope to climb on, it was huddled in the corner, it broke my heart, I'm 40 now and dam hope they don't have anything like that anymore, this Zoo looks phenomenal. Kinda worried about that tiger. Overall a very good Zoo. Feel the same way as you, Zoos are necessary for conservation but alot is just for exploitation.

[@julie-annesmith6478]

I laughed so hard at the Nuggasauris. Had to show hubby. best episode so far 😂 watch it twice.

[@elliefairhurst1235]

When we lived in uk we have drive around zoo as well called Knowsley safari and the monkeys jump on your car and rip mirrors, windscreen wipers off poo in bonnet but it was great

[@BigOzExplorers]

Oh wow that would of been a memory and a half not to mention an expensive day out lol 😂 👀

[@johnpitt2742]

put the major rubbish in the general waste

[@takingwandaoutyonda]

Wow, I've always wanted to go to Dubbo Zoo - hopefully in the next year or two we will get to NSW!! Sian, I think I saw your Dad yesterday (Saturday 2/07) in Kununurra! We had lunch at the Kununurra Hotel and I was so sure it was him, (from earlier episodes) I wasn't brave enough to go over and ask and just say hello though! :)

[@BigOzExplorers]

It possibly could of been! They are still there in town 🥰🥰 he’s a good guy he won’t bite if you see him again 😜

[@johnpitt2742]

it would dig a whole in your pocket

[@holidaymail]

Fantastic episode guys! Driven past this zoo about 6 times and never seemed to be able to get inside 😢.

[@BigOzExplorers]

You’ll have to go past again one day Stewart!

[@tomsmith2625]

jack doges the funnyest

[@colinpunyer7636]

Great to laugh at the Nuggasaurus 🤣

[@ivanolsen8596]

Those Lillypilly berries make an awesome jam. Monkey's are much smarter than humans in that they do not create problems for themselves.

[@BigOzExplorers]

100%! Well if they did it’s not intentionally anyway 😉

[@Mixos_place]

Great episode, really enjoyed it, especially the humor!. Speaking of Zoo's was in Bundaberg today and was at the free one there.Kids loved it, short and sweet.Best of all it was free, now that all our extra money is going to fuel!.Looks like I have to go back, been 15 years since I was last there.

[@BigOzExplorers]

I’ve heard the zoo there isn’t too bad!! Will have to check it out next time we’re through. Fuel is ridiculous hey, seems $2.00 per litre is the new normal 😳😳

[@steverickerby4073]

We were there it was a bom so good

[@johnmartin-sg7cv]

Loved that. We were there 20 years ago with our young kids and it was brilliant. Looks a lot better now though. One thing you did not mention about the nuggasaurus was it was a nuggetless nuggasaurus. Much less menacing. 😂😂

[@BigOzExplorers]

[@johnpitt2742]

don't rob the birds feed

[@chrisbenoit1122]

Next time your in Dubbo I’ll organise a behind the scenes tour for you have some good connections in this one lace 😉

[@BigOzExplorers]

Ohhhh that would be amazing!!! 😍

[@roypowell3450]

Loved this, will do this on our journey south from Queensland. Tell Chris if he needs to see exhaust fumes I will send him a pic when we have a -10!! 🥶 The David Attenborough impression Sian was very good, and you're much better looking😚 . Nice to see Jayda & Jack having a good time....Hope you get this ok, don't know what has been going on with our messages, I reckon KZbin stopped my messages after you greasing that hub. Hmmm! Take care love to you all. UK Leg ends.x

[@BigOzExplorers]

I might have to become the next legacy for David hey!! 😝😝 I’m not sure what you mean with your comments either I don’t think I missed any? They must be in the KZbin abyss! Good to have you back anyway, thought things were quiet! X

[@roypowell3450]

@@BigOzExplorers We don't think you missed any....just strange 😗x

[@davidokeefe1966]

Been to that zoo a few times over past 30 yrs it was extended a few years back and is looking great now. Another great episode guys .
