Prior to 1788, Australia's indigenous people hunted native wildlife such as kangaroos, koalas, wallabies, wombats and other marsupials. They caught birds such as emus, budgerigars, other parrots and eagles. They were effective hunters of a range of fish and sea animals, as well as goannas and snakes.

The women gathered yams, berries and fruits.
