Quiet river with saltwater crocodiles

This area, which stretches the north-east coast of Australia for some 450 km, is made up largely of tropical rain forests. This biotope offers a particularly extensive and varied array of plants, as well as marsupials and singing birds, along with other rare and endangered animals and plant species.
