     on get out’. Thinking it would drop Yelled = emotionally consistent

     it and run                                  but only ‘yelled’ at the dingo and

                                                 not for help

     to twelve months old and bent on not a memory

     mischief                                    Puppy = small

116  I wondered if it was the same                Emotionally inconsistent. There
     dingo we have seen by the fertility         would be little time for conscious
                                                 thought or ‘wondering’. She

     far away. There were numerous

     dingoes in the area and that

     seemed too coincidental.

                                                 suggesting something is missing
                                                 between seeing the dingo and
                                                 ‘yelling’
                                                  ‘First saw’ – wrong tense
