What is the Coorong Like? By Jane
Storm Boy, Hideaway and Fingerbone live in a wild place called the Coorong. Would you like to know more about the Coorong? This information report will tell you all about it!
The Coorong
By Jane
The Coorong National Park is a lagoon ecosystem 156km southeast of Adelaide. It is a long stretch of beach from the Mouth of the Murray River to the southeast coast of South Australia. It is a very unique wetland eco-system home to many animals.
The Coorong is 140km long and 5km wide. Sloping sand-dunes adorn the middle and tussocks(grass) grow long. The Coorong is known to hold many fabulous creeks, lakes and lagoons. The lagoon is also 140km long, parallel to the ocean beach.
Animals roam the lands of the Coorong, varied in species. Some of the animals that dwell in those wetlands are grey kangaroos, wombats, echidnas and emus just to name a few. Birds also enjoy living there, shown by the humungous number of birds migrating there, from the northern hemisphere. Massive flocks fill the sky every day including pelicans, ducks, swans, terns, and much more.
The local aboriginal people, the ngarrindjeri people lived there a long time ago. “Middens” are little piles of shellfish that are evidence of aboriginal life in the Coorong. The waters of the Coorong are also ideal for kayaking or canoeing. Fishermen enjoy the calm waters of the lakes and the famous coorong mullet. But the changes would prove hard for everyone living near it, and the people who shared such a close bond with the Coorong and its wildlife…
Lately, there has been a drought in the Coorong. The local farmers were using too much water for their crops and they almost forgot Australia is a very dry country and the Murray simply stopped giving as much water as before.
The Coorong dried out and was no longer considered a wetland. Some people even suggested taking the protection off! Fishes couldn’t survive as well because the saltwater from the sea was too plentiful and the freshwater that used to come trickling down from the Murray was reducing in quantity rapidly. Fortunately, it rained and saved everything, however we all need to be more mindful that this terrible tragedy could strike again. Stakeholders need to take action and ensure that our precious wetland stays up alive, well and thriving.
