They would make a hole low down on each side of the net, and a man would hide in each. A bird's watering-place, where the blacks trap them, is called Dheelgoolee.
When the Dheelgoolee trapping begins, on the first day those who go out hunting must bring home their game alive to give the man at the Dheelgoolee luck. Then they never try to catch an emu or kangaroo, only iguana, opossum, piggiebillah, paddy melon, or bandicoot, all of which could be brought home alive. But after the first day they can kill as they go along.
