"The Australian blacks eat snakes of every kind, as well as any small animals they cancatch; and we have often seen fellows whose sole apparel consisted of a snake girdedround their waist, with two or three rats hitched by their tails to it. We were taught the
orthodox way of cooking them by a first-rate fellow, John Fahy, an Irishman, who had beennearly fourteen years among the blacks.

Bonyi Bush BooksMining by Aborigines – Australia's first
minersWhile 1997 was the bicentenary of mining in
Australia by people of European descent, the
history of mining in this country stretches back
much further.
For more than 40 000 years before the arrival of
the First Fleet in Sydney Harbour, Australian
Aborigines had been mining the land for ochre and
stone.
Aborigines depended on their stone implements to
gather and process their food; ochre was a vital
ingredient in art and religious practices; quarries
and ‘processing’ sites were developed to cater for
the demand for these products; and transport
routes were established to allow for their trade.
While ochre and stone of one...2024-04-1007 min
Bonyi Bush BooksThe Concept of Mass Killing in Australian History: 1788 - 1930: (2023) Part TwoPart Two We will set out a terminological ecosystem of mass killing, develop a typology with semantics, and propose a methodology to investigate any instance of a mass killing event as a contextual referent within the process of enforced displacive occupation in Australia between 1788 and 1930. We will assert that a mass killing event can apply to a series of single homicides bound together by common purpose over prescribed time, scaling to the destruction of Aboriginal society across the continent, a testable hypothesis. We conclude that mass killing as a normalised pathological behaviour is not limited to homicide, but also includes...2024-04-0756 min

It is useful to set the scene. In February 1866 the Gympie gold rush was two years in the future and the Gympie Road did not exist. There was a settlement at
Mooloolah Heads started by William Pettigrew. It was largely a base for the shipping of timber cut in the hinterland. William Grigor and James Lowe ran a store there where the basic rations could be purchased.

Introduction
Areas of high environmental value (for example habitat for vulnerable species) sometimes coincide with sites of particular value to industry, such as the presence of natural resources or proximity to infrastructure. Environmental offsets (offsets) may be used to counterbalance significant residual impacts from particular activities on particular matters of national, state or local environmental significance.
Under a number of existing Queensland laws, offsets may be required for certain activities where there is an unavoidable impact on significant environmental values. To counterbalance this loss, offsets, which include improvement and protection of alternative sites...2023-08-0224 min

The Australian lungfish (Neoceratodus forsteri) is listed under the EPBC Act as vulnerable and a

It is also a no-take species under the Fisheries Act 1994. The species was eligible for listing as vulnerable given (DotE, 2014): as a result of past changes to its core habitat, it is suspected that the recruitment to the adult breeding population has been, and is still, unsustainably low; and that the species is likely to undergo a substantial population reduction over the next three generations.

This innocuous phrase suggests an orderly process of enlisting willing employees, but deeper investigation suggests that the process was almost certainly not as innocent, straightforward or homogeneous as the term implies. Although likely to be incomplete, a survey of known recruitment events in the nineteenth century (see Table 1) reveals a range...2023-02-0249 min

Sadly, our understanding of ‘Frontier Wars’ in Australia is marred by extreme vagueness, inaccuracy and hearsay. Rarely did perpetrators wish to detail their atrocities or offer exact coordinates and dates. Often, accounts of ‘outrages’ were either greatly exaggerated (if perpetrated by Indigenous people) or entirely hushed up if the perp...2022-07-171h 00

Bonyi Bush BooksTom Petrie's Reminisces of Early Queensland - Chapter 1 to 5" Bon-yi," the native name for the pine, Araucaria Bidwilli, has been wrongly accepted and pronounced bunya.

Bonyi Bush BooksKabi Mob - by John Matthew 1865 to 1887The forest country was well wooded and abounded in marsupial game of several varieties. Native bears and opossums were very numerous, as were also kangaroos and wallabies, kangaroo rats and bandicoots. The streams were plentifully stocked with mullet, cat-fish, barramundi and eels.
