Sealife

Artist: Giovanni Tipungwuti

That’s the food we eat from the sea. We go hunting in the mangroves for mudcrab (kurumpuka), mussel (jukwarringa), long bum (piranga). There is only one place to get turtle (jarrakalani) off the coast of Melville Island. They can get turtle anytime. Turtle has a lot of meat. If we get lost we can always find food on this island.
