Aboriginal hunting practices, combined with their extensive use of fire for land management, indeed played a significant role in shaping the Australian environment. Controlled burns, often referred to as "fire-stick farming," created grasslands ideal for kangaroos and other grazing animals while reducing the risk of larger, uncontrollable wildfires. Over thousands of years, this practice influenced plant and animal distributions, and even soil composition, leaving a lasting legacy on the landscape.
It’s remarkable how deeply interconnected human activity and the environment are—even in ancient times.
