Join conservation organisation Bush Heritage Australia to travel the vast Australian continent: from the flanks of the Mighty Murrumbidgee River in New South Wales where over 40,000 trees have been planted, to the ‘Galapagos of the Kimberley’ where some slimy snails have scientists extremely excited, and across to the ancestral lands of Waanyi and Garawa people where they are keeping culture and biodiversity alive. Meet experts in conservation and Country who are on the ground working to address some of our most pressing environmental threats. Theme music by The Orbweavers.

  • Big Sky Country Season Three Trailer
    Jul 17 2025

    Prepare for Big Sky Country Season 3, our most expansive season yet. In six captivating new episodes, we take you down the backroads of this diverse country to investigate how biodiversity quietly – and powerfully – offers solutions to the climate crisis.

    Hosted by wildlife conservation biologist and proud descendant of the Kaurareg nations Tiahni Adamson – the 2024 Young South Australian of the Year – this series introduces you to people with moving, personal stories who are restoring and protecting ecosystems one block, one banksia, one oyster at a time. If you’re familiar with our first two seasons, you’ll notice one big change - we’ve ventured into the broader conservation space, offering up big ideas, big voices and big solutions.

    You'll meet die-hard conservationists safeguarding tree species that dinosaurs once ate. Scientists measuring the body temperatures of desert animals to help them survive climate change. Traditional Custodians who are reading the signals from plants, animals, landscapes and Country – physically, spiritually, emotionally – and lending their knowledge to show us all how to live in balance, so that we don’t simply survive, but thrive.

  • Learning Garawa
    Apr 10 2023

    It’s a two-day drive from Darwin to Robinson River, on Garawa Country in the NT, just south of the Gulf of Carpentaria. While the road there can be long, the destination is worth it. The annual Waanyi Garawa Biodiversity and Culture Camp brings together Elders, rangers and kids together to keep their culture and language strong.

    While remote communities face many challenges without easy access to country, these camps create an opportunity for dance, storytelling and play, and for community leaders to pass down important ecological and cultural knowledge to the next generation.

    Featuring Aunty Nancy McDinny, Uncle Jack Green, Karen Noble, Donald Shadforth, Dr Terry Mahney, and Kelly Retief.

    Produced by Will Sacre and Eliza Herbert.

  • The return of the right-way burn
    Apr 10 2023

    In 2021, Wiradjuri Elder Uncle James Ingram and Bush Heritage’s Aboriginal Partnerships Manager and Yuin Walbunja woman, Vikki Parsley, walked across Tarcutta Hills Reserve in southern NSW in search of cultural artefacts. Immediately, they called for a cultural burn. The land was in need of controlled fire, and it presented an opportunity to get Wiradjuri people back out on Country.

    This was to be the first cultural burn held on a Bush Heritage reserve in New South Wales, and the beginning of a significant conversation about how fire has and hasn't been used in the continent’s southeast for centuries.

    Featuring Uncle James Ingram, Vikki Parsley, Dean Freeman, and George and Win Maine.
    Produced by Will Sacre and Eliza Herbert.
