Beskrivelse af The Truth About Bunyips
The bunyip is the bogey of the bush, the mystery monster of the billabongs, a figment of Aboriginal mythology. Everyone has heard about bunyips, but nobody knows what they are supposed to look like. So you will surprised to learn that bunyips were once taken very seriously, and that white settlers were reporting encounters with them for almost 170 years - the last being only 30 years ago. Now a qualified zoologist has searched the recently digitalised archives to reveal dozens of such encounters covering the whole of southeastern Australia and Tasmania: an area much wider than that of the original Aboriginal tradition. You will read such accounts as: the scientists called in on examine a purported bunyip skull; the small town that sought to flush out its resident bunyip with dynamite; andthe weird creature which spouted water from its neck and whistled, plus many more. And even when an explanation is available, you will be forced to admit that, once more, truth is stranger than fiction.
