Moonlit Sanctuary Wildlife Conservation Park

Michael Johnson grew up catching creatures in his Melbourne backyard. He trained at the Durrell Conservation Academy in Jersey in 1996. The park he built on a former Pearcedale pony club now manages the national spot-tailed quoll studbook, breeds orange-bellied parrots, and runs lantern-lit night tours that started it all. No government funding for 15 years; every dollar goes back into the enclosures.
