A Thaayore story is that on the south of the Chapman River there is a sacred space for sting ray. Big people clean and rake this space, using yellow pandanus leaves, preparing this site. Sting ray are important to us as they are a protector. They let us know there is a cyclone coming by making a thunder sound & he wrestles the lightning and keeps it out at sea so it doesn’t strike people.
