In reply to Julie Chetty. Do not go to Narwantapu nation Park to see wombats. It's bad advice, and wasted so much of our time. The Park ranger said they haven't had wombats there in about 10 years.

In reply to Yuka. You're right that weather in April can be a bit colder and wetter than summer, making it a bit more challenging to see wildlife. But it's possible to see wildlife year round, especially at places like Cradle Mountain, Maria Island, and Narawantapu. Have a great trip.

This article is exactly what I am looking for! Which month do you recommend to go Tasmania just to spot wildlife? I am planing to go there in the early April. It is becoming cool and I am worried about weather, especially rain… Is it still good season to visit?

What a great article. I had no idea you could see so many interesting species in Tasmania. It is definitely being added to my itinerary.

Love this content Taryn, very well-written!
Traveling is the best possible option to achieve peace of mind that many people hunger for. If you are a person who loves animals, you should take on a travel trip to see them. If you are still deciding on what place to visit for your next adventure, you should consider wildlife destinations.

Hi Taryn, to be honest, i am not very active on social media. To be be more precise: i am not active there at all…and with +40 of age already too old 🙂 When i am done with editing, i could forward a vimeo or flickr link to your administrator email, if you are interested (but image quality is not the best, as you could imagine with a 40€ camera – but still possible to ID the creatures in most cases…). Best greetings! Tom

In reply to Tom. Oh that's so cool Tom! Would love to see some of your photos, especially the night vision ones. Will you be sharing them online somewhere?

Hey Taryn!
I just wanted to say “thank you!” for this wonderful Tassie Wildlife guide! All required infos in one place! It was so helpul for planning my trip! I could spot so many creatures, all i “wanted” to see plus so many more unexpected surprises…just mindblowing (the white wallabies are still around on Bruny :)). I could literally write a book about what i have seen…+10k pictures + videos (incl. night vision camera trap, which turned out to be the fun ) will take several months of editing….puhhhh :). And your guide was a key-contributor to this. So again: Thank you!

In reply to Eric Maury. Glad it was helpful Eric! If I had to recommend just one place to see animals in Tasmania, I'd definitely say Maria Island on an overnight visit. Have a great trip.

I hope I’ll be lucky to see some or these animals.
