This is the lukupupu’s area. His tracks are everywhere. The lukupupu is looking for kuka (meat), like minga (black ants). He is going all around and going home again. You can see the lukupupu in his underground home. One goes one way, another going another way. Going all over the place. Many lukupupu hunting for their dinner. Panangka unngu ankupai, mana anannyi (the lukupupu is skimming over the ground, he moves backwards, bottom first). Piti tjuta (many holes dug in the ground) nyinapai unngu (they live inside there).
