Kakadu National Park
Kakadu National Park is located in northern Australia. It was created in 1975 by the Australian government. As a national park, this area is protected from destructive human activity, such as hunting or mining. The park is home to one of the oldest archaeological sites in the world. That’s why it is essential that this land is protected. Aboriginal people have been living in this region for over 40,000 years. As a result, they have left clues about their past cultural practices and beliefs. There are cave paintings and rock carvings from thousands of years ago that depict their lifestyles. As hunter-gatherers, animals were an important food source for the Aboriginal people. One of the artistic styles that is reflected in this Aboriginal art is called ‘X-Ray.’ An x-ray is a picture that shows the bones and organs inside of the body. What do you think X-Ray art is? It is art that depicts the bones and organs of animals and humans.
In addition to the rock art at Kakadu National Park, there are many different ecosystems that the Australian government wanted to preserve. There are cliffs and rivers and hills. There are even waterfalls! Not only are the ecosystems diverse, the animal species inhabiting Kakadu are also diverse. From huge crocodiles to exotic birds, the Kakadu National Park is the perfect destination for people who like to observe unique wildlife.
