    Read excerpt

    October 1 is International Coffee Day, which celebrates the global significance of the popular beverage. Nestlé Australia, which produces instant coffee, says there has been a surge in sales. Cost-of-living pressures are forcing more coffee lovers to change their spending habits amid rising cafe prices. At a Queensland coffee-processing factory, 10 people are employed to ensure every batch tastes exactly as it should. Each day they gather in groups of three or four around a rotating table, which

    Read excerpt

    Pubs are often the heart of a country town, and Kin Kin is no exception. It is the first thing visitors see when they enter the quaint village in the Noosa hinterland, and when American-born entrepreneur David Ezrine arrived five years ago, he saw an opportunity too good to resist.

    Becoming best mates with the Crocodile Hunter left Wes Mannion with permanent scars, but not a single regret. There was that time when a cranky crocodile called Graham tore chunks off his leg and backside while the pair was securing an enclosure during a flood at Australia Zoo, on Queensland's Sunshine Coast. Mr Mannion was even mauled by the man himself once, an avid fan and practitioner of Brazilian jiujitsu who built a training cage at the zoo so they could practise during their breaks. "I've

    Three varieties of 'vegan Dracula' lampreys found in unlikely places (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Queensland scientists now believe there are three distinct species of the so-called "vegan Dracula" fish. Lampreys are nicknamed vampire fish because they have sharp teeth and feed on the blood of other fish, but these are non-parasitic. With the help of a state government grant, researchers will travel to K'gari and other locations in Queensland to map the true range of the peculiar creatures. With its suction-cup mouth and circular rows of sharp teeth, a close-up view of an Australian brook la
