There are a couple of Bird species missing off the list so feel free to make corrections and add species. Also does anybody know whether the wombats at DDZ are Southern Hairy Nose or Common? I have listed both just in case.

Where is the Perentie in the zoo?
When I went earlier this year, there was a sign for Perentie, but I only saw a Lace Monitor, with the Brush-tailed Possum (There was also a sign for Common Wombat). They were in the area near the gang-gang cockatoos and raptors, near the entrance.
