Dive into Australia’s wetlands as Mitch and Russell investigate the bunyip—an eerie creature rooted in Aboriginal lore and echoed in colonial-era sightings. We explore origin stories, reported encounters, and the natural-world explanations (from seals to giant eels) that might lurk beneath the ripples.
