Unless you're camped by a billabong, under the shade of a coolibah tree, waiting and watching the billy boil, you dont got to worry overly much.
There is quite a friendly bunyip near Canberra somewhere.

In The Fatal Shore, Hughes has one chapter which refers to "the Bunyip Aristocracy." So, do you boys and girls have a House of Lords inhabited by mythological creatures?

Well - we've heard of the Loch Ness monster - and they are related, you know!
