What Creature's This?

Actually it's the frilled-neck lizard and you'll find this particular specimen at Sydney Wildlife World at Darling Harbour adjacent to Sydney Aquarium.

Although it might look a bit fierce, the frilled-neck lizard, Chlamydosaurus kingii, is actually quite harmless. You'll find a large collection of Australian fauna at Sydney Wildlife World which is within walking distance of the city centre.

You can walk to Darling Harbour, or take the monorail, or you can take a ferry from Circular Quay to Darling Harbour and alight at the jetty closest to Sydney Aquarium. If coming from Central Station, take the tram to Darling Harbour, alight at Pyrmont Bay station, then walk east on Pyrmont Bridge.
