The first season of ABC’s “The Kimberley” continues its breathtaking journey through one of Australia’s most remote and stunning landscapes. This Tuesday’s episode shifts focus from the cool dry season of Barrkana to the scorching heat of Wilbooroo, examining how the changing conditions affect the region’s unique wildlife.
As the wetlands evaporate, crocodiles find themselves crammed into shrinking rivers, leading to fierce competition for survival. Meanwhile, high in the canopies, savanna gliders take advantage of the warmer weather. On the ground, Traditional Owners begin the vital work of early controlled burning, a practice deeply rooted in their knowledge of the land. The episode also follows Mark Coles Smith and elder Mervyn Street as they travel into Gooniyandi Country.
We will also get to explore the sandstone refuges of Wunambal Gaambera Country, witnessing how various species endure the extreme temperatures of Lalin. The series continues its exploration of Australia’s wild beauty this Tuesday, 27 May at 8:00 PM AEST on ABC.
