According to Gibson Kuvurio, from Pilio Island (off the southwestern coast of New Britain Island, Papua New Guinea) the wawanar is said to be a dragon that "owns the land and the sea." The islander was interviewed, in 2004, by American living-pterosaur investigator Jonathan Whitcomb (author of Searching for Ropens) who believes that the legend originated from sightings of the creatures called "ropens" on nearby Umboi Island.
