520 |a The Australian continent is covered by desert, including parts of the country's interior where saline lakes and bizarre rock formations can also be found. Yet these deserts are full of life. Aboriginal communities have adapted to the harsh conditions and have not been displaced here as they have in other areas. The wildlife in this area has also had to adapt. From kangaroos and dingoes, to the prolific birdlife and feral animals that thrive in this environment, this film examines life in the Australian Outback?
