This is the story of the great war that Rikki-tikki-tavi fought single-handed, through the bathrooms of the big bungalow in Seowee
cantonment. Darzee, the tailor-bird, helped him, and Chuchundra, the musk-rat, who never comes out into the middle of the floor, but always
creeps round by the wall, gave him advice; but Rikki-ikki did the real fighting
He was a mongoose, rather like a little cat in his fur and his tail, but quite like a weasel in his head and his habits. His eyes and the end of his
restless nose were pink; he could scratch himself anywhere he pleased with any leg, front or back, that he chose to use; he could fluff up his
tail till it looked like a bottle-brush, and his war-cry, as he scuttled through the long grass, was: "Rikk-tikk-cikki-tikki-echk!"

the maori creation myth tells the story how humans were born and how nature in their birth by sacrificing themselves. according to this creation myth, the earth and heaven were once joined as ranhinui.   papatuanuku was the sky father and the mother ranhinui was the earth and they had many children. the children lived in the darkness and wanted to live in the light. the children separated the parents in order to live in the light. the parents continue to grieve for each other until the present day.

the haida creation myth is about a trickster named raven who stole the sun, the moon and the stars in order to bring light to his created world. he created animals, fish, trees, men, and all the creatures but they lived in darkness because of which he stole light.

based on a comparison of the myths “the maori: genealogies and origins in new zealand” and “the raven and the first men: the beginnings of the haida,” if the maori and the haida people decided to create a myth together, the importance of family will be the most likely values be expressed.

the maori and haida cultures are more similar than different because they have   important values in common. both the cultures value nature, family and sacrifice.
