STORY ABOUT DINGOES

Written by Tess Napaljarri Ross Illustrated and translated into English by Otto Jungarrayi Sims

One afternnon the mother dingo left her pups in the cave. The pups began to cry without their mother.

Nearby two men were hunting for kangaroos and for perentie. The two men heard strange howling noise.

Some men came by and they saw the dingo pups. Afterwards the two men took the dingo pups back home.

When the men got back to camp they gave the pups to young boys and they told the boys to rear the

pups and to give them food and milk. "Look after the pups carefully, " they said, "Don't let them wander off."

As the days went by the pups grew to be big strong hunting dogs. Whenever the men went hunting,

the dingoes went along with them. They would chase plain kangaroos and get them. The dingoes were keen hunters.

Wherever their masters went they would follow. They knew their master very well.

STORY ABOUT A DINGO (3)by

Tess Napaljarri English translation and illustrations by Andrea Nungarrayi

A long time ago a man and a woman got speared by a lot of people.They had a little baby girl who was still asleep in the camp.

One day a dog came by and smelt the baby who and lying there and took her with him.

The dog used to go hunting for bush tucker and he used to come back with some bushtucker and used to give her some to eat. They both shifted to another place and made their camp there.

The dog reared the little girl with bush tucker and with some meat.They were living together. The woman thought about it and said. " I think this dog brought me up from a little baby."

One day a man came by and asked the woman."Where have you two come from? Where are all the people?" The woman ansered him. "This dog brought me up." The man replied,"Really." The man then took the woman and they all lived together in the village — the man, the woman and the dog — forever.
