"Kurtal big snake here, cheeky one. Proper jila this one, living water. This is Jilji (sandhill - surrounding waterhole) on the outside, That bit that’s where Kurtal makes his toilet (break between sandhill).If you get bush tucker from wrong place that big wind comes up because you make that snake angry. We don’t get jurnta (bush onion) from just anywhere, you got to be careful". Kurtal is a jila (waterhole) associated with rainmaking southwest of Lake Gregory.
