An Aboriginal community fears its culture may be lost, as dry conditions and low river flows, threaten the Darling River's future.

The Barkindji people have lived, hunted and passed down their oral history on the banks of the Darling for more than 40,000 years.

 Their fears surfaced at a recent corroboree* in Wilcannia, which was once a thriving Murray-Darling River port.
