| | Reconciliation and science | | Elders are increasingly teaming up with scientists to document Indigenous knowledge, and work to understand and manage ecosystems.. On South Australia's Fleurieu Peninsula, Mark Koolmatrie is leading a push for Ngarrindjeri people to "re-learn and share" traditional knowledge and values about endangered wetlands. "The local environment was our hardware store, our chemist and our supermarket and everything else," says Mark. During Reconciliation Week, this lovely story documents a case of reconciliation in action. Also this week: there's six wild birds per human on Earth; how malaria hides in the spleen; and the mystery of eel migration. More ABC science and technology: Web | Facebook | Twitter | | | |
