The World Heritage-listed Kakadu National Park is set to expand thanks to the Jeffrey Lee. The sole member of the Djok clan and senior custodian of the land known as Koongarra has offered the sacred lands to be added for protection and conservation.
Jeffery Lee has told The Age
I’m not interested in money. I’ve got a job. I can buy tucker; I can go fishing and hunting. That’s all that matters to me,
I applaud his beliefs and his philosophy! By sticking to his guns about his ancestral lands we are all given a wonderful gift of more protected lands to be a part of the Kakadu National Park.
Fingers crossed it gets passed through legislation with no problems and we are all given this wonderful gift!
