Hartley Crocodile Adventure Farm, Australia
From series “Top 10 Extraordinary Farms”
Those who dreamed at least once in life to watch for dangerous predators of the planet, being in close proximity, should visit Hartley’s crocodile farm. The farm is located in Australia, North Queensland, It is a cross between a traditional amusement park and a nursery. Although Hartley’s is a commercial company and sells crocodiles, the farm is open for tours. The Hartley’s team believe that conducting tours of the farm is a great way to raise environmental awareness.
On the farm are excellent conditions for hiking. It is really more like a normal zoo. Walking through convenient bridges along the enclosures you can watch the mighty predators as well as to witness the process of feeding. You can even take part in it using a special pole to feed the animals with fresh meat. The crocodile farm is located in the surroundings of Port Douglas city, on the territory of an incredibly beautiful tropical forest.
