Everyone has heard of bunyips, of course, but what are they really like? The story of the bunyip's bath tells of a very unfriendly bunyip who, left on his own, does not make friends with the other animals in the beautiful area of Cradle Mountain in Tasmania. It is up to all the animals and birds to band together for their survival. In a plot to stop the bunyip and his mean ways, they make new friends, and their tale becomes part of the new landscape.
