澳大利亚2006, Dermot Smyth, Case Study 20.9: Garig Gunak Barlu National Park, Australia, Michael Lockwood, Graeme Worboys, Ashish Kothari, Managing Protected Areas: A Global Guide, page 539, During the 1950s, all of the remaining Aboriginal traditional owners were removed to a government settlement on nearby Croker Island. In 1981, the establishment of Gurig National Park was agreed to by the Northern Territory government and the Aboriginal traditional owners in order to resolve a pending land claim under the Aboriginal Land Rights Act of the Northrn Territory. Rather than proceed with the claim, the traditional owners consented to the establishment of the national park in return to regaining title to their native lands.
