i never seen a single animal when I was there. Except for sea gulls

If I remember, went for a lunch in CBD, parked at the multi storey garage nearby.
Paid AUS$16 for like at most 2 hours there?

never been outside the city and Freo, the most ulu place I went was only Joondaloop

I dunno, wild animals does not interest me much since I live in Sarawak.
A man was eaten by a croc near my home a few months ago
and last week, I saw some Beruk in front of my lawn.
Snakes and lizard roams freely on the road every morning.

I like the forest though, I'm much more intrigued with the tress and grass.
I can spend hours just hiking through them
The park on top of the hill in Perth is perfect for walking but finding parking there is such a hassle
