Abstract
Despite the potential economic significance of the use of wild resources, defined as native flora and fauna, by Australian Indigenous peoples, there has been relatively little research into this issue. Using a new methodology, this article provides estimates of the economic benefits derived from the use of wild resources to the Indigenous community of the Wallis Lake catchment in New South Wales.
