The origin of waterPrediction : One day a tree fell down and made a hole then an aboriginal dug and dug so deep that water came spurting out. Summarise One day there was no water and the animals were thirsty. They had to drink from Gulbirra and dew from the leaves. Bangarra had water and didn’t share. The animals had a plan to get some of the water. So Gudjilla followed him. Bangarra saw him. So Jiggirrjiggirr spied on him also but he got seen too. Gula wanted to do it to, but the animals didn’t let him and they laughed. Gula tried and he didn’t get seen. Gula followed Bangarra to the water. The animals were so happy. The king fisher made drains, creeks and rivers. That’s how the water came and we still have it today.Feelings the animals felt left out that they didn’t have any water.Bangarra was selfish and kept it to him self.Questions is the story true or not?
