Take the ferry over from Circular Quay to Mosman Bay, to visit Taronga Zoological Park, whose occupants enjoy an amazing view of the entire harbour, city skyline and the Opera House. Fifty-eight hectares house Australian marsupials, native birds including kookaburras, galahs and cockatoos, and sea lions and seals from the sub-antarctic region. Also, this beautiful and endangered snow leopard from far-western Tibet.
