Moreton
Bay is a very protected area in Queensland.The Brisbane River is
the reason Moreton Bay exists because the river flows into Moreton
Bay.The river is strange because while it flows to the bay, the fresh
water changes to salt water.The Brisbane River is dredged every year
because gets dirty and has to get dredged.
Moreton Bay is the
habitat for over 1000 animals. The Brisbane river
is the source of water for us and Moreton Bay. The
water in the Brisbane river runs like a snake slithering through the ground
looking for it’s
food. When John Oxley found Brisbane, he went through the river and had to anchor in Moreton Bay. When
John Oxley was set out in the boat, Mermaid,
he went to explore Moreton Bay. In 1828, on the 25of August,
Cunningham found
Cunningham's Gap which connects the Darling Downs to the Moreton Bay
district. He saw aboriginals in the area and found that they were able
to gather plenty of food from the bay area..
