They have collected hair, footprints and waste suspected of belonging 【小题2】 a “wild man”, but some experts argue that most were the result of bears, monkeys or even human beings. They failed 【小题3】 (uncover) the myth of “wild man”, but discovered the area’s rich biodiversity.

It’s almost time for me to say goodbye to Australia. I’ve enjoyed my time here very much.
