      They basically have aspirin in the bark.

    I don't understand this, I dont even know if the U K speaking bloke in this video is an Australian or, in Australia!! AND I'll tell u y I say that!! Some bloke in Australia posted on u tube that Willow trees r not native too Australia!! AND were introduced to control something or other!! AND yet, on another u tube site, some bloke said they were introduced to Australia, for the making of cane and leaf baskets!! I realise they BOTH could've been correct, as I looked on Google and it said, Willows r native too the Norhen hemisphere from Asia and the U.K I thinnnk🤔but and pls dont quote me on that!! AND that they were introduced to the USA where they caused no problems!! BUT!! I've seen indigenous Rock paintings of our rivers, at least 10s of 1000s of years old by carbon rating dating many times on Documentaries!! AND I've personally seen aboriginal paintings on Rocks out around walgett in NSW! AND The river the indigenous ppl painted over 10s of 1000s of years all have drawing of the rivers nearby and, they ALWAYS had water in the rivers in those paintings!! so, when we had the heartbreaking images of all of the fish kills right along the Murray darling, including at The Manindee lakes, as a result of the rivers being nothing more than puddles here and there, besides breaking my heart! I KNEW that the rivers all along the Murray Darling river basin, and the entire system, that, THAT couldn't possibly have happened in the last 80 000and argumentatively, for the last 100000 year's, ever since the Aboriginal tribes, 1st started painting or,drawing them!! Simply because no different from anything else that, our Indigenous ppl 1st drew what they seen at the time !! AND!! Even if it or, those paintings r 'only say 10.000 yrs old!! THOSE RIVERS ALWAYS HAD RUNNING WATER IN THE DRAWINGS!! Sure, sometimes u can plainly see that the rivers ranged from being quite low in volume, right through to them being a 'Banker' or In Flood time!! with the top of the water over the top of all of the rivers banks!! if u doubt me? pls go and have a look yourselves!!🙂Especially if you're a grey nomad, or u don't live far from the Walgett/Bourke and Brewarrina and those places, like Coonamble for example!! AND you'll see for yourselves my friends, I'm from and was born in Coonamble!! AND Dad said he seen many many more of them up around Yetman, on the McIntyre River!! AND!! equally there's at least what I'd call weeping willows in those drawings too!! so,? I honestly don't think all Willow trees were introduced to AUSTRALIA By non indigenous ppl!! BECAUSE on the grand scale of things, White, Non indigenous people have only been here for 5 bloody MINUTES on the grand scale of things folks!!, I'm a white man from European forebears at the end of the day, and ever since 1777 When cook 1st planted a flag in the ground in Sydeney, or botany bay I think from memory and proclaimed An for the King of England!! or basically said...'WE'LL HAVE AND TAKE THAT!' Then governor Macquarie lobbed here a few years later, and shoved a flag in the sand close too where the city of Sydney is today!! AND 'Officially proclaimed Australia for the King of England with the 1st fleet!! BUT all that aside, all I'm saying is, those paintings were out along the Murray Darling river basin system, from about central QLD, too WHERE the Murray Darling river basin runs into the Ocean in Victoria and South Australia!! with willows all the way along the entire Murray Darling river basin and water in the rivers too!! regardless of the height of the rivers waters!! Hence, if ALL willow trees in Australia are or were an introduced tree??? pls let me know How that's possible!! AND thanks
