520    The emu is an iconic Australian bird of significance to 
       all Australians, but especially so to Indigenous 
       Australians who have had a special relationship with this 
       curious animal for thousands of years. In this bilingual, 
       highly illustrated, full-colour publication, Something 
       about emus reveals valuable ecological knowledge in a 
       collection of essays by senior members of the Bininj 
       Kunwok language group from Kakadu National Park and 
       Western Arnhem Land. Something about emus goes beyond 
       biology and ecology to encompass other culturally 
       important domains such as the visual and verbal arts, 
       music, ritual and the relationships between humans and 
       animals. Whilst Indigenous ecological knowledge is 
       increasingly acknowledged as a valuable part of 
       Australia's cultural heritage, such knowledge is most 
       richly expressed in Australia's Indigenous languages which
       have largely remained inaccessible to those outside their 
       communities.
