Nocturnal House

A collage of images of the Alice Springs Desert Park

See some of the common, rare and endangered native nocturnal animals of this region. Many of these animals are rarely seen in the wild.

Here you have an unparalleled opportunity to watch at your leisure as they each go about their nightly routines in their recreated habitats.

The lighting here is switched to reverse cycle turning our day, into their night and our night, into their day. This ensures your visit coincides with the most active part of their daily routines and that they too, have time to sleep undisturbed.

See woodland animals that only come out at night in the woodland areas of the Northern Territory, these include mammals, reptiles, birds amphibians and invertebrates.
