Australia is home to many animals, some strange, some dangerous, all of them unique. But the creatures and monsters dreamed up by Aboriginal Australians and modern locals are even stranger, and some are far more dangerous! From bunyips, to yowies, to muldjewangks, to drop bears, this program will discuss some of the most frightening and bizarre monsters from Australian folklore!
