The special relation between men and their totems is shown by a belief which exists in a large number of tribes, to the effect that the men have the power to make their own totem animal or plant increase in numbers; so that a kangaroo man can cause the kangaroos to multiply, a rain man can make rain, and so on. A kangaroo man cannot make rain, nor can a rain man do anything to increase the number of kangaroos.
