The difference is this. If you trash the environment in a state or national park, Parks Vic can prosecute you if they can be bothered. If you trash aboriginal heritage, not only can PV prosecute you, but AAV can prosecute PV for failing to protect the site. This might focus PV's attention. And I guess AAV might prosecute you too.

And there's Aboriginal heritage everywhere, though mostly far from obvious to the untrained eye. Particularly under rock overhangs.

This is why it's illegal to camp under rock overhangs in the Grampians. And why digging under rock overhangs is not a good thing to do.
