I know how that is. I had 3 essays due all last week. I managed to get one in on time and extentions on the other two.

Well this is a myth that has been around for quite a number of years.

In fact the proof I spoke about was this show that was on TV, which was so real, not just fiction.

It was about this Kangaroo called Skippy and Waratah Park, with the ranger and the rangers family there.

The amazing things was that Skippy could go chip chip" or whatever sound it is that kangaroos make and the person in the house could know what he said and they would say "What's that skip, Danny has fallen down the well. Well you go get Matt and Ill go to the well"

You see amazing, Australians can communicate with animals.

However the truth is that this show was all a lie, like Steve Irwin and the Crocidile Hunter. We cant communicate with animals anymore than you guys can. So only a little bit.

So when I tell my dog to sit, sometimes he does.

So this myth is plausible. Some Australians can communicate with animals but no more so than usual.

Lightbulb haka Qs

Hi!I am not a Kiwi but I LOVE New Zealand.
My Question:
Why don't the Black Caps perform any haka ?
Dumb question? :
It would really boost team morale when facing opponents like Australia ; will kind of scare them before important matches (Chappell-Hadlee Trophy) .
Though , it will be totally weird to see the likes of Stephen Fleming ,Jacob Oram and the rest jumping and shouting something along the lines of "Kamate Kamate " or something of that sort .Waddaya say?

It's not part of tradition. Not to mention Cricket is seen as a refined, upper-class sport. That's why they have tea breaks! So, you can't have any such "savagery" before a match. And as you alluded to, I don't think there are any Maori on the side. There's probably someone with an 1/8th or so Maori in them.

Yes. Because we sent them all over to NZ and now we don't have many left.

Honestly I don't know why they are protected, or why crows are protected for that matter, but they are.
