當北半球秋去冬來，

墨爾本已春寒料峭。

這片祥和謐靜的園區，

許多小動物彷彿在禪的境界

那麼清淨自在。

Located in the heart of the Yarra Valley and spanning 30 hectares,

this world-renowned native bushland sanctuary is dedicated to viewing wildlife 

in their natural habitat. 

Australia's unique native animals found here include kangaroos, wombats, koala, emus, 

birds of prey, and dingoes…

There is also a free-flight presentation featuring Australian raptors (such as the wedge-tailed eagle) and colorful parrots.

Healesville Sanctuary is a wildlife experience center dedicated to connecting people with nature while preserving local wildlife and Indigenous culture. 

It also holds significant influence in the conservation of endangered species worldwide.

While the Northern Hemisphere transitions from autumn to winter, 

Melbourne is welcoming the brisk chill of early spring. 

In this peaceful and quiet park,

 the little animals seem to be living in a state of Zen, 

appearing incredibly pure, calm, and free.
