The Story of the Puggle:
- Once upon a time there were four million, three thousand, two hundred and one ... Puggle, but now there are only a few bagfuls left. Puggle lived in the Australian bush under the ground in tunnels. They came out of their holes at night to feed on their favourite tucker split peas! All night long they would puggle up every pea they could find, and as daylight approached, it would "dawn" on them that they had to get back home.
