Tasmania - Paradise at the End of the World - Go Wild

It was only two hundred years ago that Tasmania was a British colony known as Van Diemens Land -- and so remote that its only use was as a penal settlement for the most hardened criminals. Times have definitely changed, yet that remote untamed island of history is never far away.
Today Hobart, the capital of Tasmania, is a bustling modern city and busy port. Mount Wellington rises straight out of the city to more than 1200 metres. It's possible-- in just a little over half an hour - to drive from a city centre restaurant to a wilderness where you could freeze to death. Even in summer snow can fall here. To the people of Hobart, this place is simply The Mountain - a finger of a vast and trackless wilderness pointing right at the heart of the city -- so it's not surprising that Tasmania's wild heritage plays a central role in the lives of the island's human inhabitants.

    9:32 I remember being at an isolated beach house in winter on South Bruny. My sister and I would go out exploring along the beaches and in the woodlands and spot white wallabies. In the all the time there we never saw other people - just a wild, windswept coastline and a grey ocean stretching off to Antarctica. At night you could see the Southern Lights dancing about the skies. It's a pretty incredible place.

    If you get there, reserve an evening to visit the Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary, about 30 minutes outside Hobart. You can help the keeper feed the animals. They’re mostly nocturnal, just waking up - Tasmanian Devils, Qualls, Echidnas, Koalas and Wallabys. Great experience. Say hi to Tony.

    This has to be one of the better documentaries I've seen on my home state. Congratulations. But I have to take exception at the sentence, "As big as the profits are from timber and woodchips . . ." because Forestry Tasmania doesn't make any profits. It actually COSTS Tasmanians to keep it running because the state government subsidises it to the tune of millions a year.

    Briefly the facts about Tasmania : 1) A state in Australia that consists of the mountainous island itself & several smaller islands. 2) It is separated from the southeast coast of mainland Australia by the Bass Strait. 3) Its pop. is approx. a little less than 500,000 & its capital is Hobart. 4) It used to be known as Van Diemen's Land until 1855. 5) There exists a Tasmanian devil or only found in Tasmania which is a heavily built marsupial w/ powerful jaws & ferociously aggressive, & feeds mainly on carrion, namely the decaying flesh of dead animals.

They were struggling in England (and enslaved Irish) and stole out of necessity and then called criminals and moved far away and forced to build all the housing/buildings the people in in-just power and privilege wanted so real name would be slaves not criminals...

    450 FEET tall tree!!! (136 metres = 446 .13’ ). I grew up on the bubble of the change from Imperial to Metric, so some things I visualize and only think of in feet and inches others I can only see in Kilometres or millilitres. Temperature changes from Fahrenheit for Cooking, but Celsius for weather! If it’s not in those units, I need to do a quick conversion in my head before I can go on. Weird right.

    Wonderful doci, It's a pity not one mention was made about the indigenous peoples of the island The Truganini who just like so many aboriginals were wiped out through disease and of course war. Celebrating mining and hardwork?, cutting down indigenous forests, its a beautiful place, I hope it remains that way. Perhaps a documentary about the Truganini people who lived there before the prisoners and Europeans. Give them a voice for they had knowledge that industrialists ignored and still do. Love each other!!!

    Julian, Australians are not allowed to forget. Every doco on KZread that is about Tasmania is flooded with misinformed, black armband comments about the events of the 1800s. What actually happened and what commenters believe happened are not the same. Much of the disappearance of almost all the native Tasmanians can be attributed to poor communications, incompetence and ignorance of basic nutrition.
