Tales of the Wakwak were retold in folklore. Alex Malto's grandfather once saved a lost child from a Wakwak, and used to take Alex on Wakwak hunts.

Shortly after moving to Witwicky, Alex retold the story of the Wakwak to his kids. He was unable to get any of them interested in going on the traditional Wakwak hunt, but managed to persuade Bumblebee to come along, and passed on his Wakwak-fighting Kali defense techniques. Traditions
