Korte feiten: Tiny nocturnal primates cling to narrow trunks at dusk, their enormous eyes nearly as large as their brains letting them spot the faintest flutter of a moth. Surprisingly, they can swivel their heads almost 180 degrees and launch silent leaps of several meters to snatch insects and small lizards.
Hoogtepunten: On quiet guided walks of about 20 to 30 minutes, groups of roughly 10 people tiptoe along shaded trails and watch with dim red lights as the animals’ huge eyes reflect like tiny moons. A surprising local practice has guides using soft whistles and gentle finger-clicks to elicit duet-like calls from pairs at dawn, those high-pitched chirps often felt as a prickling sensation in the ears.
Insidertips
- Wear quiet, dark clothing and soft-soled shoes for the forest boardwalk.
- No flash photography and keep voices low; use a telephoto lens or zoom on your phone for shots.
- Arrive early or late to avoid mid-day tour group crowds, especially weekends and holidays.
- Bring small change, water, and insect repellent; there are limited ATMs and shelter in Corella.
