英文介绍:
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]
Average Annual Temperature: 11.6 - 19.1 °C

袋鼠岛
袋鼠岛
Kangaroo Island
亦译坎加鲁岛。
澳大利亚第三大近海岛,面积4,351平方公里(1,680平方哩)。位于南澳大利亚州圣文森湾出海口,阿得雷德西南130公里(80哩)处。地貌为较低的多悬崖高原(构造上为大陆山脉的延续部分)。岛西部灌丛地区只要管理适当,可种植大麦和燕麦等,并可放牧牛羊。主要居民区金斯科特(Kingscote)有海运和航空线与大陆相通。以海洋捕鱼和弗林德斯(Flinders)国家狩猎公园为基础的旅游业也是收入来源之一。有大量石膏蕴藏。锡尔湾南岸有澳大利亚海豹禁猎区和繁殖地。人口3,923(1986)。
袋鼠岛 (Kangaroo Island),是台湾游客比较陌生的澳洲岛屿,位于南澳州首府阿德雷得的南方,是澳洲的第3大岛,仅次于最大岛的塔斯马尼亚岛 (Tasmania)及位于北澳达尔文附近的梅尔维尔 (Melville),面积有4500平方公里,约为台湾的8分之1。 由于在澳洲本土肆虐的土狗Dingo、狐狸、兔子等外来动物,并没有引进到袋鼠岛,再加上人烟非常非常地稀少,人口约有4400人,每平方公里住不到1个人 (就连无尾熊都超过2万只),岛上生态因此得以保持,袋鼠岛更成为澳洲南部重要的生态观光地点,从每年春天 (约10月)到秋天 (4月),都是旅游的好季节。
袋鼠岛东西宽150公里、南北纵长55公里,袋鼠岛基本上可分为南海岸及北海岸两条旅游路线,不论往北或向南,随处可观赏到缤纷的野花、羽翼丰腴的鸟儿及可爱的澳洲有袋类动物,调皮活泼的海豹及每天长途跋涉走路回家的神仙企鹅,在袋鼠岛上更是常常可见。
数量已经无法统计,袋鼠岛的路上、草坡、农田、沙地,随时可看见袋鼠‘发功’,使着弹簧腿一路狂奔。当地生态导游克里斯(Chris Baxter)指出,袋鼠岛袋鼠,属于西部灰袋鼠 (westernGrey)的亚种,比起其他地方的袋鼠体型要小些、毛要长些,看起来毛绒绒的,另外,一种体型较小的坦玛小袋鼠(TammerWallaby),削长脸颊两侧毛色较淡,非常可爱。
3. 准备去袋鼠岛旅游,有什么需要注意的呢
如果想去袋鼠岛旅游一定要注意时差的问题,以及小费和银行的开放时间等等问题,另外还要注意最佳的出游时间,因为袋鼠岛冬季温和潮湿,而夏季则温暖干燥,所以去袋鼠倒旅游最好不要选择在盛夏或者是严冬的季节。
4. 袋鼠岛的交通
在1907年至1961年期间,阿德莱德港和金斯科特之间的客货运输最初是由卡拉塔(Karrata)号承担。
卡拉塔号退役后,RW·米勒(RW. Miller)经营的M·V·特罗布里奇(M.V. Troubridge)号替代了它,并在晚些时候成为了与南澳政府合资运营的线路。M·V·特罗布里奇号是一艘最大载重量为1,996吨的滚装船,直至阿德莱德港、林肯港和金斯科特使用了专门设计的装载支架才开始采用其他装卸方式。
M·V·特罗布里奇号的运营至1987年6月1日结束,被政府运营的价值2300万澳元的岛屿水路(Island Seaway)号取代。岛屿水路号由埃格洛工程公司(Eglo Engineering)在阿德莱德港制造,适用与特罗布里奇号相同的装载平台。该船由于不适于跨越巴克斯泰斯海峡而被严重批评。在起初的一次航行中有75只牛羊因一氧化碳中毒而死亡,该船也被形容为“操纵起来如购物手推车一般”。之后,这艘船在1989年9月进行了耗资一百万澳元的推进系统改装,从而改进了其可靠性。
在1980年代,岛屿水路号开始受到袋鼠岛海联(Kangaroo Island SeaLink)公司的竞争,后者运营着杰维斯角与彭纳肖之间的航线。海联公司收购了原先由彼得·马奇(Peter March)引入的渡轮服务。彼得的菲兰德勒渡轮公司(Philanderer Ferries)是开创杰维斯角到彭纳肖航线的先锋,其中菲兰德勒3号(Philanderer 3)是旅客与汽车混装的双体船。1980年代,其麾下的两艘客船海德罗弗莱特33号(Hydroflite H33)和岛民号(Islander)曾经在一段短时期内运行格莱内尔格(Glenelg)到金斯科特的航线。
海联公司自创立来打败了很多竞争对手。博托克(Boat Torque),一家西澳公司,曾经在1994年至1997年间使用 超级弗莱特号(Superflyte)运营格莱内尔格到金斯科特的航线。袋鼠岛渡轮(Kangaroo Island Ferries)公司曾经短期投资水路号(SeaWay),在2004年9月至2005年2月间运营维丽那湾(Wirrina Cove)至金斯科特的航线。水路号不如海联公司所用的船只那样能够在恶劣天气中运行,影响了其服务的稳定性。在由别的资本接手后,水路号于2007年8月重新开始运营。然而在2008年5月,水路号的运营者宣告由于燃油价格上涨,其服务将再次中止至2008年10月。2008年6月,水路号的运营公司由政府接管,船只则被出售。
随着海联公司引进岛屿领航者(Island Navigator)号,岛屿水路号的使命结束了,其服务中止后由海联公司利用政府补贴运作所有往返袋鼠岛之间的货运服务。由于对杰维斯角泊位的长期租赁,海联公司目前对袋鼠岛的海运拥有实际垄断的地位。根据海联公司和南澳政府的有效期至2024年的协议,在海联公司提供航线服务的前后各一小时内不允许其他运营者使用杰维斯角的设施。袋鼠岛的居民对这一给予海联公司排他性的安排表示不满 自1930年代起,几内亚航空(Guinea Airways)运营了袋鼠岛最初的商业航线。1959年,该航空公司被安捷航空的子公司南澳航空公司(Airlines of South Australia,ASA)收购。该航线最终运营至1986年4月4日。南澳航空公司主要使用康维尔(Convair)、道格拉斯DC-3和福克F27飞机。在1970年代,也曾偶尔使用比亚乔P166(Piaggio P166)飞机,罗斯航空(Rossair)的塞斯纳402(Cessna 402)飞机也曾在非高峰时段替代南澳航空的F27飞行。
随着南澳航空的撤资,安捷公司的另一个子公司肯德尔航空公司(Kendell Airlines)使用19座的仙童城市飞行者(Fairchild Metroliners)和34座的萨博飞机运营至坎岛的航线。随着安捷航空在2002年最终破产,区域快线收购了肯德尔航空并持续服务至今。
在与拥有更灵活的航班时刻表的较大型航空公司的竞争中,自1970年代起一系列规模较小的航空公司通过各种方式成功维持了其作为“第二梯队”的存在。岛屿航空(Island Air)和佩加斯(Pagas)曾经在1970年代短暂运营,而最成功的是自1980年开始运营的鸸鹋航空公司(Emu Airways),其最后一个航班在2005年11月结束飞行。在航空管理部门裁定关闭除金斯科特以外的所有机场之前,鸸鹋航空曾使用派珀飞机公司的酋长型飞机运营金斯科特、美洲河、彭纳肖和帕德那航点。在1990年代,袋鼠岛航空公司(Air Kangaroo Island,先前的Air Transit)使用塞斯纳402经营该岛航线。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)也曾经营该岛航线。
在1986年至1990年间,劳埃德航空(Lloyd Aviation)使用巴西航空工业的EMB-110型飞机和爱尔兰制肖特330(Short 330)型飞机经营该岛航线,康莫德航空公司(Commodore Airlines,后来成为州立航空,State Air)也曾提供航线服务供选择。澳航连线(QantasLink)在鸸鹋航空倒闭后不久,自2005年12月18日起开始为该岛提供航线服务,但在6个月内就取消了。在此期间,澳航连线曾首次开辟了从袋鼠岛直飞墨尔本的航线。
自2007年1月起,澳南航空(Air South)使用泰坦9座飞机每天提供4个班次的服务。
