Finding Peacock Mantis Shrimp in Australia
Specific park pins for the peacock mantis shrimp in Australia are still being curated. Until then, use the Peacock Mantis Shrimp field guide for ID and biology, and the Australia expedition page for broader wildlife destinations.
Australia context: Koalas in the gum trees, kangaroos across the red centre, and wildlife found nowhere else on Earth.
When you are out looking, prioritise coral reef, reef rubble, and sandy burrows in Australia. That is where local sightings of this species are most often reported.

Biology, interesting facts, identification, and conservation live on the Peacock Mantis Shrimp field guide. This page stays focused on finding one in Australia.
