Yirrikipayi (Crocodile) are important to the Tiwi people, not only because many of them inhabit the waters around the islands and estuaries of the Tiwis, but because they are also a family totem danced at ceremonies and events. The Traditional Owners of Wulirankuwu Country on which Milikapiti and Jilamara Arts sits are a larger family group that identify strongly with the Yirrikipayi totem, making it a prominant dance at ceremonies around Milikapiti.
