The central line represents the distinctive track made in the sand by the kangaroo's tail, with the hind legs either side. Traditionally, Kangaroo ancestors angered Warnayarra (The Rainbow Snake) at Mawarriji, a sacred site near Mt Singleton. They tried to punish the Kangaroo Men with a ferocious storm of wind, rain, and lightning. The Kangaroo Men hid in a cave for several days and waited for the storm to pass.
