Description

Hold the right hand, palm out, near right shoulder, first and second fingers extended, separated, and pointing upwards, others and thumb closed; Move the hand several inches to front and slightly upwards, turning hand a little, so that extended fingers point to front and upwards.

Notes

Sometimes both hands are used, left being similarly fixed to right and held opposite left shoulder.

Clark notes that some tribes not thoroughly conversant with the gesture language make signs for GRAY, size of animal, large tail, and long, sharp, nose.
