I have my doubts about the current "Origin" section. As a child growing up at Yuendumu in Central Australia, I heard this story from old Warlpiri people who told me that one of the standing rocks at Juka Juka that looked like a frog was part of this dreaming. Note there are "water holding" frogs around Yuendumu, but there are not eels, pelicans, or islands which were not included in the version I was told.

I suspect this is a very old tale that probably originated in Central Australia but spread widely and evolved to take on local details and relevance as it spread. The rainbow serpent tale another dreaming that is also widely known with many variants across Australia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DonovanBaarda (talk • contribs) 03:58, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
