 There's no reef there. There's nothing for us. We're here in Bowen on Jiru Country and this is our totem. The turtle is a gungu and the snake, our gubbler moonda. We're land and sea rangers. We go out doing turtle tagging. We measure them and then we lift them up and we weigh them. We sit there and we talk to it. We pad it and we wipe it down, wipe its eyes. We check for any fibro papilloma. It's a disease and then we write it all down, put it on the computer and then we send it up to JCU. It's so important to me to learn about what I do on countries so then I can go back and I can tell my family and my grandkids and then when they get older I would rather them come in and do something too. We also work with field management ranges up and down the coast. I grew up learning about marine biology and doing boating and diving and I wanted to work in that kind of environment and help protect what we've got out there. In marine parks we look after wildlife in I guess a holistic way. We're looking after the habitat of a lot of animals. We're looking after the marine park, the reef, the islands and we're trying to ensure that there's good habitat for those animals to be surviving. On a typical day in the field we might jump in the water and do some reef health impact surveys. We look after things like coral bleaching, coral disease and crown of thorns starfish, marine animal strandings so when turtles or mammals wash up on the beaches. I feel very privileged to be able to be contributing to the conservation of such an amazing place especially one that showcases a lot of natural beauty natural values of the Great Barrier Reef and the islands.
