Australia Zoo Wetlands - 8/2/2005
Emma Bee

Australia Zoo does not actually have any amphibians, however we do have wetlands birds and reptiles so we would be willing to talk about these animals.

Marty is a familiar face around the Zoo grounds. He’s been here for a long time now and is an old favourite with the Zoo Crew. He will always give you a honk good morning, which to us sounds like the punching of a car horn, but to all the other birds in the wetlands it’s a very clear "I’m the boss, I’m the boss!" He doesn’t like anyone to be within his head-butt range (which is about a metre).
