Kill to Eat

    "Kill to Eat"  story writed by Oodgeroo Nunukul, it is situated in Australia. The characters are the mother, the father and the kids. This is a story about kids who have to hunt to eat not for fun, but there is a problem because one of the brothers kill a kookaburra not for eating, and kookaburras can not be killed, they are friends from hunters.

  "One rule he told us we must strictly obey when we went hunting, we must undersatnd that our weapons were to be used only for the gathering of food. We must never use them for the sake of killing." There are rules for hunting, this people only can hunt if they need to eat, never for fun, or for the sake of hunting, exactly the contrary the boy had done.

 "We had broken that strict rule of the Aboriginal law. We had killed for the sake of killing and we had destroyed a bird we were forbidden to destroy. The Aborigine does not eat the kookaburra... We call him our brother and friend" The kookaburra must not be killed  by hunters, it is a friend for them, it laughs so it brings happines to the tribes, not only the had killed for the sake of killing, they had broken the Aboriginal law too.

  In my opinion, I think that the rules the hunters have are very important for them so breaking them was a big fault.  And the relationship is very important too, I think that killing a kookaburra is disappointing for nature and their family too.
