The Kakarra Aboriginal Corporation is the registered native title body corporate to manage and hold native title in trust for the benefit of the native title holders.  

On 2 November 2023, the Federal Court of Australia recognised the Thaypan People’s native title rights and interests in relation to land and waters in the south-east Cape York Peninsula, to the east of the Great Dividing Range. The determination area covers more than 350,000 hectares.

The determination resolved a part of the larger Cape York United #1 claim. 

The Thaypan native title group include the Goose and taipan Snake clans.
