    Fighting Extinction Challenge Teacher Answers Middle Years 9-10 Wurundjeri Investigation We are all custodians of the land, just as the Wurundjeri have been for thousands of years. During your independent investigation around the Sanctuary look for ways that the Wurundjeri people lived on country and record these observations in the box below. Look (what you saw) Hear (what you heard) I wonder… (questions to ask an expert or investigate back at school ) Bunjil Soundscapes Waa Information from education Mindi officers Signs about plant uses Dreaming stories at feature shows Signs about animal dreaming Information about Wurundjeri stories Seasons Sculptures Didjeridoo Scar Tree Bark Canoe Gunyah Information about Coranderrk William Barak sculpture Information about William Barak Artefacts (eg eel trap, marngrook, possum skin cloak) 1. Identify and explain how did indigenous people impact upon their environment? Indigenous people changed the landscape using fire stick farming which also assisted hunting Aboriginal people used their knowledge of the seasons to optimise hunting, gathering, eel farming and more Aboriginal people used organic local materials to create tools to assist them with hunting and gathering their food i.e. eel traps, woven grass baskets, rock fish traps etc. They only ever took what they needed from the land and had a deep respect and spiritual connection to the land and their surroundings. 2. How are humans impacting on natural resources in today’s society? How does this affect wildlife? When the land is disrespected, damaged or destroyed, this can have real impact on the wellbeing of people, plants and animals. European settlers and modern day humans have caused land degradation by: •Introducing poor farming practices causing land degradation •Introducing noxious weeds •Changing water flow courses and draining wetlands •Introducing feral animals •Destroying habitat through urbanization, logging and farming practices 3.

    DRAFT FOR PUBLIC COMMENT Grampians Region Climate Adaptation Strategy 2021–2025 DRAFT FOR PUBLIC COMMENT Who is this document for? Victoria’s Climate Change Act requires the Government to ‘take strong action to build resilience to, and reduce the risks posed by, climate change and protect those most vulnerable.’11 Development of this community-led Grampians Region Climate Adaptation Strategy and coordination of its implementation has been funded by the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP). The Strategy was written collaboratively by members of Regional Climate Adaptation Groups (RCAG) representing state government, agencies, local government, universities, farmers, business and community in close consultation with key stakeholders throughout the Grampians Region. It is intended that everyone involved can see their own climate adaptation aspirations reflected. Efforts across the Region can be better coordinated, leading to improved outcomes for communities and the environment. Community groups, local governments, agencies and organisations can use this document to: • Align their own climate adaptation planning and projects to regional goals and outcomes, providing opportunities for partnerships and collaboration to maximise collective impact. • Apply for grants funded by DELWP. • Support funding applications for other government, corporate and philanthropic grants. Activities aligned with these goals and outcomes will be able to demonstrate a high level of strategic thinking at a regional level, stakeholder engagement

  • A Grampians Massacre? an Analysis of the Participant’S Account of an Early Whyte Brothers Massacre in the Portland District
    A Grampians Massacre? An analysis of the Participant’s account of an early Whyte Brothers massacre in the Portland district by PD Gardner (written with assistance from the Search Foundation.This is an unpublished essay completed about 2010) The account of this massacre - which I consider a primary source and not as well known as it should be - went as follows: “ ‘Why' said one of them, the elder of the two, ‘I can remember when they used to shoot down the blacks in this colony as you would do kangaroos, all because they sometimes killed a few sheep. I remember down in the Port District, when the four Parks and three other men, I was one of them, shot sixty-nine in one afternoon. The devils had stolen about 100 sheep and driven them away to the ranges. When they got them there they broke their legs to prevent them escaping, and were killing them and eating them at their leisure ... We all mounted horses, and armed with rifles set off in hot pursuit. It was early morning when we started, and about the middle of the day we came up with the black rascals, and a rare chase we had of it. They set off like mad, about one hundred and fifty of them, never showing fight in the least. The ranges were so rocky that we had to dismount and follow them on foot, and after two or three hours chase we got them beautiful - right between a crossfire, a steep rock on one side they could not climb, and rifles on each of the other.

WILSON AND STEPHEN J. KEABLE Australian Museum, Sydney, NSW 2010, Australia ([email protected]; [email protected]) Abstract Wilson, G.D.F. and Keable S.J. 2002. New Phreatoicidea (Crustacea: Isopoda) from Grampians National Park, with revisions of Synamphisopus and Phreatoicopsis. Memoirs of Museum Victoria 59(2): 457–529. The Grampians National Park, Victoria, has substantial environmental significance owing to the diversity of endemic species restricted to this reserve. We reinforce this observation by reporting six new species and two new genera of isopod crustaceans endemic to the Grampians, and redescribe two previously known Victorian species representing formerly monotypic genera. These isopods are members of the ancient suborder Phreatoicidea, and show diverse morphologies. To demonstrate the basis for the classification of these species, we present a phylogenetic analysis of exemplar species of most extant genera of Phreatoicidea. Our analysis supports the sister group relationship of Phreatoicopsis and Synamphisopus. We observe a rudimentary accessory flagellum on the antennulae of both genera, but this isopod plesiomorphy optimises on the cladograms as a reversal. Two new genera, Naiopegia gen. nov. and Gariwerdeus gen. nov., are members of the Phreatoicidae, but are distinct from any described taxa in this family. Various metazoan and protist epibionts are commonly encoun- tered on these isopods. These species are described using detailed scanning electron microscopy and inked drawings: family Amphisopodidae, Phreatoicopsis raffae sp. nov., Phreatoicopsis terricola Spencer and Hall, 1897, Synamphisopus doegi sp.

  • Wimmera Cmas Newsletter July Chunnup 2018
    Wimmera CMA Newsletter A summary of recent events For upcoming events, please visit our website or follow us on Facebook. Winter: Late May-end of July Chunnup season is depicted by cockatoos, fungi as well as clothes, Totems and the return of Aquila constellation (Bunjil). Long cloaks were made from possum skins. Old people and pregnant women rubbed emu fat into the skin for protection from the cold. For ornamentation, people wore kangaroo teeth necklaces, hat mats and nose piercings. The first of the winter orchids appear including tall greenhood and early Nancy Lily are in flower. Many early Wattles such as Long leafed Wattle, Golden Wattle and Prickly Moses are also in flower. Possums have young in pouch during Chunnup, Sugar gliders give birth and Echidnas are searching for mates. Rising waters cause ducks to seek new feeding and nesting areas and Lapwings are nesting on eggs. Swans and Coot graze on lake shores. Frogs actively call during Chunnup and the ponds are full of water creatures. WATER IN THE WIMMERA Environmental Flows: Flows are temporarily ceasing to ensure sufficient water availability for flows later in winter/spring. However if dry conditions persist, flows for the Wimmera River, Mt William Creek and lower MacKenzie River will recommence in mid-late July. These flows are important to manage water quality issues and maintain habitat. Monitoring: Platypus monitoring along with fish and vegetation monitoring took place on the MacKenzie River, Burnt Creek and Mt William Creek in April. All the monitoring work will be valuable in terms of informing the effectiveness of environmental watering actions and hopefully provide some good engagement outcomes as has been the case in past years.

For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] Australian Aborigines & cultural tourism: case studies of Aboriginal involvement in the tourist industry Abstract The principal focus of this report has been with issues of direct concern to Aboriginal people and communities involved with cultural tourism. Report recommendations stress the need for greater consideration of Aboriginal cultural perspectives in the development and implementation of government policies. A central question to emerge from the study is whether cultural tourism is merely a novel angle within current developments in tourism and enjoying a good deal of attention and enthusiasm from tourist organisations and operators, or whether it is primarily a context for commercial enterprise development by Aboriginal people? A related matter is the question of what purpose Aboriginal ventures in cultural tourism are designed to serve and in whose interests they are developed? Answers to these issues were not always obvious to Aboriginal people involved in the ventures surveyed nor was it necessarily apparent to some of the non-Aboriginal participants. The purpose of Aboriginal tourism ventures is problematic in public policy and in bureaucratic practice.
