To the Aborigines the Bunyip was a beast of many different shapes and
sizes. Some Bunyips were covered in feathers; some even had scales
like crocodiles The Aborigine's fear of Bunyip can probably be traced
back to a known aquatic man-killer, the saltwater crocodile The Bunyip is
supposed to emerge at night to prey on animals, and women and
children
A bunyip is a monster
and its not a real
animal.
In the story there was a
Bunyip that was
sleeping and the other
animal woke
him up. Then he wanted
to scare the animals
away, but he could not
because the other
animals where just as
scary. The bunyip
looked in to the water
and scares himself.
