One of the most important aspects of Anangu culture is its deep respect for the natural world.

This holistic worldview is reflected in their traditional practices, such as hunting and gathering, which are done with great care and consideration for the environment.

Its needle-like leaves reduce water loss through transpiration, and its bark is thick and protective, helping to insulate the tree from the extreme temperatures of the desert. The Desert Oak is a beautiful and important species, and it is a crucial part of the unique and fragile ecosystem of the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park.
