When this is done the Bunjaras throw off all reserve, rush on them from every side, pelt them with stones, rob them and carry off their animals by force.. Occasionally no attempt is made to do the thing quietly, but an open attack is made, BUNJARA, CALLED ALSO "LUMBHANA." 37 commencing with the usual stone-throwing. During the day they have a habit of stealing sheep or goats. Observing the direction in which a flock is grazing, the Bunjara selects a bush or a large stone or a nullah, whichever ...may be in his way, and secretes himself. For fear he may be noticed, he pretends to dig up roots or to be collecting gums, &c. On the approach of one of the animals near him he watches for the shepherd's attention to be directed in the opposite way, the sheep or goat is instantly thrown, both forelegs are crossed over the back of its neck, tongue pulled out sufficiently far to enable him to run a long thorn through the tip (this prevents the animal drawing it back, and thus ensures its silence), and it is left lying on the ground under the hiding-place the Bunjara used.
