The Gagudju Australian Aborigines were simple folk. They have been around for four hundred thousand years. To this day there original tripe culture still exists. This is pretty amazing to me. The way the Gagudju have been around for this long is for the simple things. The first thing is they respect nature, which is odd to me because of the way Americans are today. The second reason they are still around today is because they respect their elders. The reason this is so important is because they are the only ones that know the true culture of the Gagudju. Through this they would pass down all the information, but today they don’t have anyone left to pass this great information onto. They last reason they are still around today is because they can live off the land.
The next thing I found interesting about the Gagudju Australian Aborigines tripe was the animals they were surrounded by. The first one that impressed me was off course the crocodile. It is the kind of all the rivers down there. The next animal that caught my eye was the kangaroo. I didn’t know that there were two different kinds of kangaroos there. I always thought there was only one kind. But there are two different kinds and one is calmer and the other is feisty and likes to me more out there and jump all over the place and play around. The next animal I liked was the lizard with the loose skin. Which came for the original being cursed but I will get to that in the next paragraph. I loved how it would just run around and I have never seen anything like it before. Next was the boss of it the entire eagle. The eagle is there to look over everything and really the most respected animal. It’s just so amazing how it can swoop down and grab fish out of the water with its talon. Some after will go feed their young which I liked. Then when it is Australia is going through its dryer stage and the water lowers in will swoop down and grab these huge fish I don’t know how it even picks it up. Then after it gets it and start eating another bird swoops in and scares it off. This other bird is really smart because its beak is not sharp enough to cut into the tough skin of these bigger fist so it waits till after the mighty eagle has done all the work then it swoops in. The last animal the impressed me was this little bird that would work for two weeks to build a shelter. Then after he is done with that he will go and get all these bones and drag them over there and put them under his shelter. He does all of this just to impress a women. I just couldn’t believe it. Then his man pad was he is trying to get some women back to get burned down so he has to start all over again. That is just so impressive but yet weird at the same time.
The most interesting thing I found about the Aborigine people was there believes of the dream time. Were animals turned into people and people turned into animals. Then sometime animals would turn into the land. This is how they got a lot of their great rock faces. This was just so fascinating to me. I think it would be awesome to turn into an animal. Myself I would turn into a lion, horse or bear and maybe chaetae that would be awesome to run that fast. Most of their traditions rely on them believing in the dream time. This was so just interesting to me.
