Malak Malak Land and Water Management Rangers

The Malak Malak Land and Water Management Rangers are active in managing 30,000 hectares of land along the Daly River. Their land and sea management activities include managing the intense invasive infestations of weeds of national significance (gamba grass, mimosa and salvinia), fire management, environmental monitoring and scared site protection. The Ranger group breeds and distributes biological control species to help manage the infestations of Salvinia molesta and Mimosa pigra along the Daly River, which has demonstrated high levels of success. Working closely with NT Fisheries, the Malak Malak Rangers have also collaborated on numerous research and training opportunities as well as being identified as a key partner in ensuring permit and fisheries compliance along the Daly River.
