Off road motorists joyride over protected middens in Tasmania’s Tarkine
Off-road motorists are taking down protective fences to ride roughshod over Aboriginal middens. Video evidence gathered by Senator Whish-Wilson has revealed that some motorists are not just continuing to flout the law by using banned tracks in the 100,000-hectare Arthur Pieman Conservation Area, they are joyriding over middens protected by fences and signs.
