Native title granted to South Australian Wirangu people recognises it 'always will be Aboriginal land'After 25 years, the Wirangu people have native title over part of their traditional lands on South Australia's west coast, but it is a "bittersweet" moment.Key points:- The Wirangu have been granted native title to more than 5,000 square kilometres of land on South Australia's west coast- The claim was first lodged in August 1997, but none of the original claimants are still alive- Former police station land in Streaky Bay will be transferred to the Wirangu people to build a cultural centreNone of the original applicants are alive to see their families accept more than 5,000 square kilometres of land from Acraman Creek, south of Smoky Bay, to Port Kenny.Justice Natalie Charlesworth formally handed down the Federal Court findings at a special hearing on country at Streaky Bay this week.He said there were also overlapping claims of different native title groups, which could be difficult for European law to deal with and recognise.Streaky Bay District Council Mayor Travis Barber said the community welcomed the determination and looked forward to working with the Wirangu people."
