英文介紹:
Kangaroo Island
Kangaroo Island is Australia's third largest island - after Tasmania and Melville Island. It is 112 kilometres southwest of Adelaide at the entrance of Gulf Saint Vincent. At its closest point to the mainland, it is 13 kilometres (8 mi) offshore from Cape Jervis, on the tip of the Fleurieu Peninsula in the state of South Australia. The island is 150 km (93 mi) long and between 900 m (1,000 yd) and 57 km (35 mi) wide, its area covering 4,405 km2 (1,701 sq mi). Its coastline is 540 km long and highest altitude is 307 m (1,010 ft). It is separated from Yorke Peninsula to the northwest by Investigator Strait and from Cape Jervis to the northeast by Backstairs Passage.
History
Historical ViewKangaroo Island was separated from mainland Australia by a rise in sea level about 9,000 years ago. Stone tools found suggest that Aboriginal people occupied the land at least 11,000 years ago; it is supposed that they disappeared in 200 BC. Theories about the cause include disease and inbreeding, warfare, climatic change or exos.[1]
In 1802 British explorer Matthew Flinders named the land "Kanguroo (sic) Island"[2] after landing near Kangaroo Head on the north coast of Dudley Peninsula. He was closely followed by the French explorer Nicolas Baudin, who mapped much of the island (which is why so many areas have French names). Although the French and the English were at war at the time, the men met peacefully. They both used the fresh water seeping at what is now known as Hog Bay near Frenchman's Rock; the community is now called Penneshaw.
An unofficial community of sealers and others was set up on Kangaroo Island from 1802 to the time of South Australia's official settlement in 1836. The sealers were rough men and several kidnapped Aboriginal women from Tasmania and mainland South Australia. The women were forced to do the work of sealers, amongst other activities. Three Aboriginal women tried to escape and swim back to the mainland; one is on record as having survived the journey.[3]
The biggest town on Kangaroo Island is Kingscote. Originally established at Reeves Point on 27 July 1836, it is South Australia's first official European settlement. It was later suggested that Kingscote could serve as the capital of South Australia, but the island's resources were insufficient to support such a large community, so the settlement of Adelaide was chosen.
Penneshaw, the second largest town on Kangaroo Island, has a population of around 300, and is located on the north eastern tip of the Dudley Peninsula, on the eastern end of the island. It is home to the ferry terminal which brings most of the visitors to the island, along with all the necessary freight to sustain the local population. Parndana is the third largest town on Kangaroo Island, and is home to a population of around 150, however most of this population do not live in the town, they are sprawled within a few kilometres. The historic area to the south-east of the township, known as the Research Centre to locals, is home to the research station that was set up in the 1940s and 1950s to research the viability of agriculture in the area, and is still home to a small settlement of about 20 people. American River is the fourth largest town on the Island and is home to about 120 residents. Penneshaw, Parndana and American River have basic facilities, including a general store and fuel and all are home to hotels. Facilities such as banking and large supermarkets are only available in Kingscote, although all towns have EFTPOS facilities of some sort.
Population and Economy
According to the 2006 Census, the island has a population of 4,259.[4] Population growth has slowed in past years, with the attraction of mainland Australia for younger alts being the key factor in this.[citation needed] Census information indicates the number of residents aged over 55 increased from 24.1% in 2001 to 29.8% in 2006.
The economy is mostly agricultural (wine, honey, wool, meat and grain). Traditionally sheep grazing has been the key element in agriculture on the Island, however in recent times, more diverse crops, such as potatoes and canola have been introced. Cattle farming has grown as well, with good quality beef cattle being grown in the higher rainfall areas. Tourism and fishing also play significant roles, with the island experiencing over 140,000 visitors per annum, and some of the best southern rock lobster being sourced from the island's rugged south coast. Kangaroo Island has South Australia's only eucalyptus oil distillery with oil distilled from the endemic Kangaroo Island Narrow Leaf Mallee.
The island also has 28 wine growers.[5] The first vineyard was planted at Eastern Cove in 1976 and the first wine made in 1982. This was blended with Tolleys Barossa wine and sold from the cellar door of Eastern Cove Wine as KI-Barossa blend. The Florance vineyard was established under supervision of B. Hayes of Eastern Cove, who proced its first wine - Eastern Cove Cygnet - and introced it at the University of South Australia, 1990. The wine carried a Kangaroo Island appellation label as first wine 100% of the region.
Kangaroo Island is famous for its honey and for being the oldest bee sanctuary in the world. Ligurian bees were imported from the Italian province of Liguria in 1881, and Kangaroo Island now has the only pure strain in the world. As a consequence, the importation to Kangaroo Island of bees or any honey procts is prohibited.
Local Government
The Kangaroo Island Council provides local government for the entire island, and was formed in 1996 following amalgamation of the previous District Councils of Kingscote and Dudley. Kangaroo Island is in the federal Division of Mayo, which until his resignation was represented by Alexander Downer, and in the state Electoral district of Finniss, represented by Michael Pengilly, a former mayor of the Kangaroo Island Council.
The Kangaroo Island Council has released a draft General Development Plan Amendment, the first major review of planning issues since 1996.[6] Additionally, a draft Heritage Development Plan Amendment has been simultaneously released for public comment. Over one hundred places have been suggested for inclusion on a Local Heritage register. Inclusion of a place on the register requires council approval for various proposed improvements that may be considered.[7]
Sea Transport
The Sealion 2000 arriving at Penneshaw.From 1907 until 1961, Karatta was the prime freight and passenger vessel operating between Port Adelaide and Kingscote.
Following withdrawal from service of Karatta, RW. Miller operated the M.V. Troubridge, in later years as a joint venture with the South Australian Government. M.V. Troubridge was a roll on, roll off vessel of 1996 tons, which utilised specially designed loading gantries at Port Adelaide, Port Lincoln and Kingscote.
M.V. Troubridge operated until 1st June 1987, when it was replaced by the Government run AU$23 million Island Seaway.[8][9][10] Built locally in Port Adelaide by Eglo Engineering, Island Seaway utilised the same loading platforms as Troubridge. Island Seaway was severely criticised as being unsuitable for the Backstairs Passage crossing. Seventy-five sheep and cattle died on the inaugural trip e to carbon monoxide poisoning, and the ship was once described as 'steering like a shopping trolley'.[11] The vessel subsequently underwent a AU$1 million refit of its propulsion system in September 1989 which improved its reliability.
Island Seaway began to experience competition from Kangaroo Island SeaLink which began services from Cape Jervis to Penneshaw in the 1980s.[12] SeaLink acquired the ferry service originally introced by Peter March. His "Philanderer Ferries" pioneered the crossing from Cape Jervis to Penneshaw, with Philanderer 3 being a passenger and vehicle carrying catamaran style vessel. During the 1980s, two passenger only services, Hydroflite H33, and Islander, operated for a short time from Glenelg to Kingscote.
SeaLink has outlasted several competing companies since it began operations. Boat Torque, a Western Australian company, operated Superflyte from 1994 until 1997, sailing from Glenelg to Kingscote. Kangaroo Island Ferries had a short-lived venture with SeaWay, which travelled from Wirrina Cove to Kingscote from September 2004 until February 2005. SeaWay could not handle rough weather as well as SeaLink vessels which impacted the service's reliability. Under different proprietorship, SeaWay recommenced services in August 2007.[13] However, in May 2008, the operator of SeaWay announced suspension of services until October 2008, citing increased fuel prices.[14] In June 2008 the SeaWay's operating company was placed in administration and the vessel advertised for sale.[15]
With the introction by SeaLink of the Island Navigator, the fate of Island Seaway was sealed, with the service subsequently withdrawn and SeaLink drawing on Government subsidies to operate all freight services to and from the Island. SeaLink now holds a virtual monopoly on sea transport to Kangaroo Island, primarily e to its long term lease of the Cape Jervis berth. Sealink's agreement with the SA Government, expiring in 2024, precludes other operators from utilising the Cape Jervis facility for one hour before, and one hour after any scheled SeaLink service. Kangaroo Island residents have expressed displeasure with the exclusive arrangement granted to SeaLink.[16]
Air Transport
Guinea Airways operated the first commercial service to Kangaroo Island, commencing in the 1930s. In 1959, the airline was acquired by Airlines of South Australia (ASA), a subsidiary of Ansett Airlines. The airline's final service was on 4 April 1986. ASA primarily operated Convairs, Douglas DC-3 and Fokker F-27 aircraft. A Piaggio P166 was used infrequently in the 1970s, whilst Rossair operated Cessna 402's in an arrangement with ASA to replace the F27's in off-peak times.
Following the withdrawal of ASA, Kendell Airlines (another Ansett subsidiary), operated 19-seat Fairchild Metroliners and 34-seat SAAB aircraft to the Island. Upon Ansett's ultimate demise in 2002, Regional Express (Rex) acquired the Kendell aircraft and continued services which are maintained today.
In competition with the larger aircraft, and generally with more flexible timetables, a succession of smaller airlines from the 1970s tried with varying success to maintain a 'second string' presence. Island Air and Pagas operated briefly in the 1970s, whilst the most successful, Emu Airways, commenced in 1980 and made its final flight in November 2005. Emu flew Piper Chieftain aircraft to Kingscote, American River, Penneshaw and Parndana, before air regulations dictated abandonment of all airstrips except Kingscote. Air Kangaroo Island (formerly Air Transit), flew Cessna 402's to the Island ring the 1990s. Keith Stevens operated Albatross Airlines for much of the 1980s and early 1990s.
From 1986 to 1990, Lloyd Aviation operated Embraer EMB 110 Bandeirante aircraft, before flying the Irish-made Short 330. For several years ring the 1980s, Commodore Airlines (eventually becoming State Air) offered another alternative service. QantasLink briefly operated a service after the demise of Emu Airways, commencing 18 December 2005, but withdrew less than six months later. QantasLink also operated direct flights from Kangaroo Island to Melbourne, the first time the route was operated.
In January 2007 Air South [17] commenced four services daily using Titan nine-seater aircraft.
Wildlife and its protection
Seal Bay's Australian Sea LionsMore than half of the island has never been cleared of vegetation[citation needed], and a quarter of it is conserved in National Parks, Conservation Parks, and five Wilderness Protection Areas [18]. The main protected areas are:
Flinders Chase National Park
Seal Bay Conservation Park
Cape Gantheaume Conservation Park
Cape Bouguer Wilderness Protection Area
Ravine des Casoars Wilderness Protection Area
Because of its isolation from mainland Australia, foxes and rabbits are absent, from the island, and are prohibited from entry. Registration and microchipping of cats is mandatory.[19] The Kangaroo Island Kangaroo, Rosenberg's Sand Goanna, Southern Brown Bandicoot, Tammar Wallaby, Common Brushtail Possum, Short-beaked Echidna and New Zealand Fur Seal are native to the island, as well as six bat and frog species. The sole endemic (found nowhere else) vertebrate species is a small marsupial carnivore called the Kangaroo Island Dunnart. The Koala, Common Ringtail Possum and Platypus have been introced and still survive there. Kangaroo Island had a native species of Emu, the Kangaroo Island Emu; however, it became extinct between 1802 and official European settlement in 1836, perhaps owing to bushfires or from hunting by sealers or whalers.
The introced Koalas have flourished on the island, to the degree that their preferred food source, the Manna Gum, is currently at risk of extinction. Koalas have recently been forced to turn to other, less palatable, species. Management methods used include surgical sterilisation and transfer to suitable empty mainland sites. This does not appear to be keeping up with the breeding rate, though, so the only practical solution may be culling. The government is opposed to this though, fearing an economic backlash through tourism boycotts.
Kangaroo Island is the last South Australian refuge of the endangered Glossy Black Cockatoo. See also: List of birds of Kangaroo Island, South Australia
Fires
Burn scars show red in this false-colour satellite imageLightning strikes on Thursday 6th December 2007 caused several fires on the Island. Before being contained on 16th December 2007, over 900 square kilometres (or 20% of the Island) had been burnt, principally within National Park and Conservation Reserves. The most serious outbreak occurred in Flinders Chase, with 630 square kilometres (or 85% of the total Park area) having been burnt.[20]
Tourism
Remarkable Rocks
Admiral's ArchKangaroo Island is one of South Australia's most popular tourist attractions, attracting over 140,000 visitors each year, with international visitors accounting for more than 25% of these visits. [21] Some of the most popular tourist spots are:
Seal Bay with ranger guided walks among basking Australian sea lions.
Flinders Chase National Park which includes Remarkable Rocks, Admiral's Arch, lighthouses at Cape Borda and Cape Couedic, and multiple walking trails and camping areas.
Cape Willoughby
Kelly Hill Caves
Little Sahara, huge sand nes on the south coast.
the lookout Mount Thisby (officially designated Prospect Hill in 2002 to honour Matthew Flinders' original naming) with a 360 degree view around the island.
Murray Lagoon with its abundant aquatic bird life.
Parndana Wildlife Park
Shipwrecks and lighthouses
Cape Borda Lighthouse
Cape Willoughby LighthouseNumerous ships have been wrecked on the Kangaroo Island coastline, the largest being Portland Maru of 5865 tons, which sank at Cape Torrens on 20th March 1935. The greatest loss of life occurred with the wreck of Loch Sloy on 24th April 1899 at Maurpetius Bay, when 31 persons were drowned, and one initial survivor subsequently perished. 28 persons were drowned at West Bay in September 1905, when Loch Vennachar was wrecked. [22]
The first lighthouse built in South Australia was erected at Cape Willoughby in 1852. Cape Borda lighthouse was built in 1858, whilst the Cape Couedic lighthouse was erected in 1906. All lighthouses continue to be operational.[23]
Lifestyle
Murray LagoonSafe swimming is possible on the northern beaches, such as Emu Bay, Stokes Bay or Snelling Beach, and at Island Beach on the Dudley Peninsula. The south coast has dangerous undertows and is more suitable for stronger and experienced swimmers only.
Kangaroo Island has several organised sporting competitions, including Australian rules football (see Kangaroo Island Football League), cricket, darts, go kart racing, lawn bowls, netball, sailing, softball, squash and tennis.[citation needed]
Climate
Little SaharaThe winters between June and September are mild and wet, the summers usually warm and dry. Tempered by the ocean, particularly on the coastline, maximum temperatures in summer rarely exceed 35 degrees Celsius. Average temperatures in August range between 13 to 16 degrees and in February, the hottest month, between 20 and 25 degrees. Between May and September the island receives 2/3 of its annual rainfall, varying from 450 mm in Kingscote to around 900 mm near Roo Lagoon on the top of the central plateau. The wettest month is July. [24]

袋鼠島
袋鼠島
Kangaroo Island
亦譯坎加魯島。
澳大利亞第三大近海島,面積4,351平方公里(1,680平方哩)。位於南澳大利亞州聖文森灣出海口,阿得雷德西南130公里(80哩)處。地貌為較低的多懸崖高原(構造上為大陸山脈的延續部分)。島西部灌叢地區只要管理適當,可種植大麥和燕麥等,並可放牧牛羊。主要居民區金斯科特(Kingscote)有海運和航空線與大陸相通。以海洋捕魚和弗林德斯(Flinders)國家狩獵公園為基礎的旅遊業也是收入來源之一。有大量石膏蘊藏。錫爾灣南岸有澳大利亞海豹禁獵區和繁殖地。人口3,923(1986)。
袋鼠島 (Kangaroo Island),是台灣遊客比較陌生的澳洲島嶼,位於南澳州首府阿德雷得的南方,是澳洲的第3大島,僅次於最大島的塔斯馬尼亞島 (Tasmania)及位於北澳達爾文附近的梅爾維爾 (Melville),面積有4500平方公里,約為台灣的8分之1。 由於在澳洲本土肆虐的土狗Dingo、狐狸、兔子等外來動物,並沒有引進到袋鼠島,再加上人煙非常非常地稀少,人口約有4400人,每平方公里住不到1個人 (就連無尾熊都超過2萬只),島上生態因此得以保持,袋鼠島更成為澳洲南部重要的生態觀光地點,從每年春天 (約10月)到秋天 (4月),都是旅遊的好季節。
袋鼠島東西寬150公里、南北縱長55公里,袋鼠島基本上可分為南海岸及北海岸兩條旅遊路線,不論往北或向南,隨處可觀賞到繽紛的野花、羽翼豐腴的鳥兒及可愛的澳洲有袋類動物,調皮活潑的海豹及每天長途跋涉走路回家的神仙企鵝,在袋鼠島上更是常常可見。
數量已經無法統計,袋鼠島的路上、草坡、農田、沙地,隨時可看見袋鼠『發功』,使著彈簧腿一路狂奔。當地生態導游克里斯(Chris Baxter)指出,袋鼠島袋鼠,屬於西部灰袋鼠 (westernGrey)的亞種,比起其他地方的袋鼠體型要小些、毛要長些,看起來毛絨絨的,另外,一種體型較小的坦瑪小袋鼠(TammerWallaby),削長臉頰兩側毛色較淡,非常可愛。
3. 准備去袋鼠島旅遊,有什麼需要注意的呢
如果想去袋鼠島旅遊一定要注意時差的問題,以及小費和銀行的開放時間等等問題,另外還要注意最佳的出遊時間,因為袋鼠島冬季溫和潮濕,而夏季則溫暖乾燥,所以去袋鼠倒旅遊最好不要選擇在盛夏或者是嚴冬的季節。
4. 袋鼠島的交通
在1907年至1961年期間,阿德萊德港和金斯科特之間的客貨運輸最初是由卡拉塔(Karrata)號承擔。
卡拉塔號退役後,RW·米勒(RW. Miller)經營的M·V·特羅布里奇(M.V. Troubridge)號替代了它,並在晚些時候成為了與南澳政府合資運營的線路。M·V·特羅布里奇號是一艘最大載重量為1,996噸的滾裝船,直至阿德萊德港、林肯港和金斯科特使用了專門設計的裝載支架才開始採用其他裝卸方式。
M·V·特羅布里奇號的運營至1987年6月1日結束,被政府運營的價值2300萬澳元的島嶼水路(Island Seaway)號取代。島嶼水路號由埃格洛工程公司(Eglo Engineering)在阿德萊德港製造,適用與特羅布里奇號相同的裝載平台。該船由於不適於跨越巴克斯泰斯海峽而被嚴重批評。在起初的一次航行中有75隻牛羊因一氧化碳中毒而死亡,該船也被形容為「操縱起來如購物手推車一般」。之後,這艘船在1989年9月進行了耗資一百萬澳元的推進系統改裝,從而改進了其可靠性。
在1980年代,島嶼水路號開始受到袋鼠島海聯(Kangaroo Island SeaLink)公司的競爭,後者運營著傑維斯角與彭納肖之間的航線。海聯公司收購了原先由彼得·馬奇(Peter March)引入的渡輪服務。彼得的菲蘭德勒渡輪公司(Philanderer Ferries)是開創傑維斯角到彭納肖航線的先鋒,其中菲蘭德勒3號(Philanderer 3)是旅客與汽車混裝的雙體船。1980年代,其麾下的兩艘客船海德羅弗萊特33號(Hydroflite H33)和島民號(Islander)曾經在一段短時期內運行格萊內爾格(Glenelg)到金斯科特的航線。
海聯公司自創立來打敗了很多競爭對手。博托克(Boat Torque),一家西澳公司,曾經在1994年至1997年間使用 超級弗萊特號(Superflyte)運營格萊內爾格到金斯科特的航線。袋鼠島渡輪(Kangaroo Island Ferries)公司曾經短期投資水路號(SeaWay),在2004年9月至2005年2月間運營維麗那灣(Wirrina Cove)至金斯科特的航線。水路號不如海聯公司所用的船隻那樣能夠在惡劣天氣中運行,影響了其服務的穩定性。在由別的資本接手後,水路號於2007年8月重新開始運營。然而在2008年5月,水路號的運營者宣告由於燃油價格上漲,其服務將再次中止至2008年10月。2008年6月,水路號的運營公司由政府接管,船隻則被出售。
隨著海聯公司引進島嶼領航者(Island Navigator)號,島嶼水路號的使命結束了,其服務中止後由海聯公司利用政府補貼運作所有往返袋鼠島之間的貨運服務。由於對傑維斯角泊位的長期租賃,海聯公司目前對袋鼠島的海運擁有實際壟斷的地位。根據海聯公司和南澳政府的有效期至2024年的協議,在海聯公司提供航線服務的前後各一小時內不允許其他運營者使用傑維斯角的設施。袋鼠島的居民對這一給予海聯公司排他性的安排表示不滿 自1930年代起,幾內亞航空(Guinea Airways)運營了袋鼠島最初的商業航線。1959年,該航空公司被安捷航空的子公司南澳航空公司(Airlines of South Australia,ASA)收購。該航線最終運營至1986年4月4日。南澳航空公司主要使用康維爾(Convair)、道格拉斯DC-3和福克F27飛機。在1970年代,也曾偶爾使用比亞喬P166(Piaggio P166)飛機,羅斯航空(Rossair)的塞斯納402(Cessna 402)飛機也曾在非高峰時段替代南澳航空的F27飛行。
隨著南澳航空的撤資,安捷公司的另一個子公司肯德爾航空公司(Kendell Airlines)使用19座的仙童城市飛行者(Fairchild Metroliners)和34座的薩博飛機運營至坎島的航線。隨著安捷航空在2002年最終破產,區域快線收購了肯德爾航空並持續服務至今。
在與擁有更靈活的航班時刻表的較大型航空公司的競爭中,自1970年代起一系列規模較小的航空公司通過各種方式成功維持了其作為「第二梯隊」的存在。島嶼航空(Island Air)和佩加斯(Pagas)曾經在1970年代短暫運營,而最成功的是自1980年開始運營的鴯鶓航空公司(Emu Airways),其最後一個航班在2005年11月結束飛行。在航空管理部門裁定關閉除金斯科特以外的所有機場之前,鴯鶓航空曾使用派珀飛機公司的酋長型飛機運營金斯科特、美洲河、彭納肖和帕德那航點。在1990年代,袋鼠島航空公司(Air Kangaroo Island,先前的Air Transit)使用塞斯納402經營該島航線。在1980年代和1990年代初,基思·史蒂文斯(Keith Stevens)的信天翁航空公司(Albatross Airlines)也曾經營該島航線。
在1986年至1990年間,勞埃德航空(Lloyd Aviation)使用巴西航空工業的EMB-110型飛機和愛爾蘭制肖特330(Short 330)型飛機經營該島航線,康莫德航空公司(Commodore Airlines,後來成為州立航空,State Air)也曾提供航線服務供選擇。澳航連線(QantasLink)在鴯鶓航空倒閉後不久,自2005年12月18日起開始為該島提供航線服務,但在6個月內就取消了。在此期間,澳航連線曾首次開辟了從袋鼠島直飛墨爾本的航線。
自2007年1月起,澳南航空(Air South)使用泰坦9座飛機每天提供4個班次的服務。
