== Ecology == The wetlands within the part of the national park containing the Coorong Lagoon form a complex [[ecosystem]] of freshwater, [[estuarine]], and [[hypersaline]] waterbodies with a unique diversity of habitats for plants and animals. The coastal lagoons are considered [[IUCN Red List of Ecosystems#Critically endangered (CR)|critically endangered]] due to the loss of freshwater flows, local extinction of characteristic submerged plants and subsequent loss of habitat diversity.<ref name='Foundations'>{{cite journal|last1=Keith|first1=DA|last2=Rodríguez|first2=J.P.|last3=Rodríguez-Clark|first3=K.M.|last4=Aapala|first4=K.|last5=Alonso|first5=A.|last6=Asmussen|first6=M.|last7=Bachman|first7=S.|last8=Bassett|first8=A.|last9=Barrow|first9=E.G.|last10=Benson|first10=J.S.|last11=Bishop|first11=M.J.|last12=Bonifacio|first12=R.|last13=Brooks|first13=T.M.|last14=Burgman|first14=M.A.|last15=Comer|first15=P.|last16=Comín|first16=F.A.|last17=Essl|first17=F.|last18=Faber-Langendoen|first18=D.|last19=Fairweather|first19=P.G.|last20=Holdaway|first20=R.J.|last21=Jennings|first21=M.|last22=Kingsford|first22=R.T.|last23=Lester|first23=R.E.|last24=Mac Nally|first24=R.|last25=McCarthy|first25=M.A.|last26=Moat|first26=J.|last27=Nicholson|first27=E.|last28=Oliveira-Miranda|first28=M.A.|last29=Pisanu|first29=P.|last30=Poulin|first30=B.|last31=Riecken|first31=U.|last32=Spalding|first32=M.D.|last33=Zambrano-Martínez|first33=S.|title=Scientific Foundations for an IUCN Red List of Ecosystems|display-authors=2|journal=PLOS ONE|date=2013|volume=8|issue=5|page=e62111|doi=10.1371/journal.pone.0062111|pmid=23667454|pmc=3648534|bibcode=2013PLoSO...862111K|url=https://iucnrle.org/resources/key-documents/|access-date=8 September 2018|doi-access=free|archive-date=28 October 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201028130727/https://iucnrle.org/resources/key-documents/|url-status=dead}}</ref> In December 2018, the [[Government of Australia|Federal]] and [[Government of South Australia|South Australian]] governments announced a new [[environmental management]] program called "Healthy Coorong, Healthy Basin".<ref>{{cite web | title=Healthy Coorong, Healthy Basin | website=Department for Environment & Water | url=https://www.environment.sa.gov.au/topics/coorong/healthy-coorong-healthy-basin | access-date=8 August 2021}}</ref> Ongoing {{as of|lc=yes|2021}}, the Ngarrindjeri Aboriginal Corporation is working with the [[Department for Environment & Water]] to share their knowledge of [[landcare in Australia|landcare]] practices, which will be incorporated in a new database.<ref name=landcare2021>{{cite web | last=Green | first=Selina | title=Coorong Landcare project embraces Ngarrindjeri knowledge, cultural connection | website=ABC News| publisher= [[Australian Broadcasting Corporation]] | date=2 August 2021 | url=https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-08-02/coorong-landcare-partnership-sharing-indigenous-knowledge/100342052 | access-date=7 August 2021}}</ref>
