Our Way

Added by Northern Land Council

Description Hear about the "Bellyache bush walk," a weed control bush walk that also takes to the skies to monitor crocodiles, buffaloes, cattle, pigs and horses.

Wagiman rangers undertake land management activities throughout the Wagiman Aboriginal Land Trust, which covers 130,000 hectares. Rangers have focused on treating extensive infestations of Gamba Grass (Andropogon gayanus), Mission Grass (Cenchrus sp.), Bellyache bush (Jatropha gossypiifolia), and Mimosa pigra. Work has been undertaken with collaboration with partners, such as the NT Weeds Branch, Territory NRM and the NLC Wardaman Rangers.
