WANDJINA AND DINGO --

"The first mob of people were wild. The dingos were a wild mob too.
The Wandjinas made the people settle down a bit and gave them the law.
The Wandjina turned the Dingos into dogs. Those dogs were able to help the people with hunting and keep them warm when the cold winds come near Mt Elizabeth and Gibb River in the Dry Season.
Soon the dingos bred up with the Gudiya dogs and they made a lot of new mongrels. The mongrels were even better than the dingos.
Now all the dingo got jealous and went wild again so we gotta kill em now."
