Sam Butters lived and worked on Moola Bulla Station in the Kimberleys. As a young child he survived on the bush skills taught to him by his Elders. Sam, encouraged by his old brother Daylight, went through Aboriginal law. He had numerous jobs and when he was old enough he worked in the stock camps, bridling horses, fixing windmills, and cutting timber with his father. He also worked in the gararge with his uncle George.
