Return of the Erawirung crayfish
A lost totem of the Erawirung people, the Murray
crayfish, has returned to SA waters, despite being made
extinct in the area due to pollution, overfishing and river regulation.
On May 16, 200 crays were relocated from parts of the NSW
and ACT run of the Murray River with ongoing monitoring to be undertaken by
the River Murray Mallee Aboriginal Corporation (RMMAC) rangers
Erawirung man and ranger coordinator for the River Murray and Malle Aboriginal Corporation, Glenn
Chisholm, joins the program to discuss the significance of the returned totem crays.
