Thanks all. To answer a few questions:

No, Sydney Wildlife World is not Taronga. They are separate institutions and quite different experiences to visit.

The size of the pair... The male is roughly 1.7 to 1.8 metres (with a chunk of tail missing). The female is around 1.2 to 1.3 metres but only a third to a quarter of the male's weight. The tail isn't very long relative to SVL, so these lengths don't give a real impression of their size, especially the male. He's a big animal.

What will we do with the young? We'll try to trade them with other Australian zoos for animals we need.
