Every Bunun is warned before his first hunting trip: You must show respect and awe to the mountains; you must crouch when you urinate; when drinking from a river you must lay flat next to the surface of the water to show humility; and rushing into the water to play and splash around is disrespectful.
每個第一次上山打獵的布農人都會被殷殷告誡：要對山表示敬畏，小便時一定要蹲下來；在溪澗喝水時要俯身貼著水面以表示謙卑；猛然跳進溪水玩耍打鬧更是大不敬。
