Australia is the home of the Bunyip...They are an elusive creature that lives around creeks in deep dark gulleys...There are many old aboriginal tales of the Bunyip catching and eating any unwary human who accidentally strays into the Bunyip's domain....Around here where I live is prime Bunyip country with many deep dark gulleys and creeks...Often during the night one can hear weird screams wafting on the breeze especially around the full moon..Unexplained disappearance of the odd dog and livestock can be attributed to this menace....They are masters at hiding and I have no record of one actually been caught...However many an old bushman has left the wandering life and moved into town and given up the drink and joined a church after their terrifying experiences of being stalked in the night by these horrific creatures..
Australia is a strange and sometimes terrifying country with many unexplained mysterious and elusive creatures...Fair Dinkum.....

Oh Bob, you forgot a few things. They don't just live around creeks and dark gulleys, the Bunyip River is infested with them. So is Parliament House only there they're disguised as the Liberal Party of Australia. The most dangerous place of all is Bunyip, Victoria. They're highly territorial and constantly hungry so a word of warning, stay clear of the aforementioned places and beware the Bunyip, my son! The jaws that bite, the claws that catch! Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun the frumious Bandersnatch!
Yup, Oztralia is a dangerous place and not all dinkum is fair. I don't know where Bill got the idea that mutant Kiwi with a bottle of beer in its hand was a Bunyip, Kiwis are strange birds that do odd things with sheep. THIS is a Bunyip.

That's "Tige", as in short for Tiger.
All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
