Photo: Little Sandy Desert, Western Australia: In 2008 and in 2016, the Federal Court of Australia recognised the native title rights and interests of the Birriliburu People. The determinations cover an area of around 70,000 square kilometres of the Little Sandy Desert region of Western Australia, which is south of the Great Sandy Desert and west of the Gibson Desert. It is incredibly remote, with a diverse landscape of dune fields, mountain ranges and salt lakes.
