About the Author
For nearly forty years, the Australian Geographic team has been travelling this vast continent, crafting stories that celebrate the places, people, plants and animals that unite to make Australia what it is today: an ancient, wild, free place like no other on Earth, rich in biodiversity and beauty, much of it protected in parks that safeguard endemic flora and fauna, fossil sites and links to our evolutionary past. Documenting this continent is both our passion and our purpose and supports the actions of the not-for-profit Australian Geographic Society and its conservation goals.
