Biography[]
The Bunyips are capable of sensing electromagnetic fields because of that they are attracted to many electronic devices. The same ability appears to allow them to sense Zak's power. They are harmless, but seem to be afraid of Zak as if they can sense that he was Kur. Zak uses a large amount of these cryptids as spies and soldiers in War of the Cryptids. At the end of the series, the Bunyips chase away the Vltava River Sprites, take down the Allegewi, and cheering for Tsul 'Kalu after he defeated Munya.

The Real Cryptid[]
While the Bunyips in the show are portrayed as small, cute Gremlin like monsters, the real Bunyips are the exact opposite. Bunyips are gigantic, hairy, aquatic animals with two large, sharp fangs, that would devour humans who swam too close to them.
Trivia[]
- Dee Bradley Baker, who did the vocal effects for the Bunyips, also voiced the Xing Xing, Honey Island Swamp Monster, and the Georgia Pigman voice.
- The design of the Bunyips resembles the Tasmanian Devil from looney tunes.
