An Australian Paperbark tree, also called a Melaleuca quinquenervia in the rain forest of Fraser Island in Queensland, Australia Fraser Island is a World Heritage site and is the world's biggest sand island. A Paperbark tree got its name from the bark, which can be pulled off the tree trunk like sheets of paper. The light-coloured tree found on the eastern side of Australia, provided Aboriginal people with many uses such as bandages, cradles, sleeping mats and wrapping food when cooking and as bush medicine too.
