Description

Cowboy paints the Arwengerrp (Bush Turkey) story. This story is associated with the ancestral dreaming from his country, Iylentye (Mosquito Bore). The bush turkey is usually found in densely grassed areas and it is a favoured food for the aboriginal people. Hunting of it is still carried out today.
