Summary	On the spiritual place of Wadjemup, Rottnest Island, tourists are injuring the animals and making them sick. It's time to make a stand. In this Aboriginal Dreaming story, farting quokkas, dive-bombing seabirds and protesting snakes teach us how to look after our sacred land and its animals. Through Old Nana Quokka, Yamatji-Noongar Elder Aunty Rhonda Collard-Spratt shares the healing wisdom of her ancestors, and the importance of caring for Country.
