This might be the prettiest a spider can get ✨

This stunning spider is a Golden Orb Weaver, known for building large, strong orb webs with a beautiful golden sheen. Their webs are usually suspended between trees and shrubs, perfectly placed where insects are likely to fly through.

You can see this one on the right hand side, walking towards the Weigel Venom Centre. Bonus points if the sun is shining through the web ✨

The 'Reptiles of Sydney' book is out now! 👏

We’re excited to celebrate the launch of Reptiles of Sydney: Snakes, Lizards and Turtles of the Greater Sydney Region, co-authored by our very own Tim Faulkner alongside herpetologist Chris Williams.
Designed to be taken into the field, this practical new guide helps people quickly identify reptiles across the Greater Sydney region, from Kiama to Wyong and west to Jenolan Caves. With one species per page, plus information on behaviour, habitat and where each reptile may be found, it is perfect for families, educators, wildlife lovers and experienced field observers.
The book was officially launched at the Australian Reptile Park over the weekend, surrounded by community members, conservation partners and colleagues.

You can purchase the book in park or at our online gift shop now! 🍃
