-This is the tale that Ganhaarr Warrigal tells about himself, sometimes:
-Ganhaarr Warragal is the dingo dog, id old man crocodile. Lives on the edge places the muddy banks, or the dry flatlands. Eats the rotting old flesh, ahunts with strong jaws in the dark night, walks by man's side to share in the fire and the good hunt.
-Ganhaarr Warragal met with the young crone who turned into a wiri gitji, she showed him many things. Took him down into the earth and made him new flesh out of the mud and dirt, it was strong but cold. Now Warragal he hunts the bird and badagarang alike,  he hunts fat lazy wirriga and even the mulla.
-He speaks to them all and they talk back. Tell him secrets to make him walk by, find another brother to hunt, to look for the red murubin elsewhere.
-They say, that Warragal, he no wiri gitji. He come by your camp fire, sit him down, tell a story, but don't lie unless its a good one, if Warragal is amused, if it's a new talling, he grins long and hard, big long tongue slide out of his jaws, then he smile like the smell of blood, and move on.
-Warragal grew wise this way. Many people, many beasts and birds don't want be a meal for warrigal, so they tell stories. Birds talk, bees and possum talk, even old man crocodile he talk too, because Ganhaar had more teeth.
-Now Ganhaarr Warrigal walk this land where ever he likes, no mind for steel fences or wombat's burrow, hunting, swimming, eating. The breeze talks to him, the birds make him a nest. Every day he sleeps and wakes up when the night is cooler.
-Ganhaarr Warrigal don't mind people. Sometimes he gets bored or lonely, spends some time walking on too legs, puts on clothes, goes in amd sees what hos strange brothers in the big citiees do, then he gets tired of that. Tired of talking, saying "Yes" and meaning "Food!" So he stops walking on two legs, grows some more, or some wings, and goes back walk about.
