The caterpillar (or worm, or centipede) circles the statue counterclockwise at a standard speed. Once he passes the top, you have time to jump there and then to the platform...if you move quickly.

You have to collect all the pieces of the missing page of the journal.
When you pass the statue with the giant caterpillar, there will be a hole lined with thorns. Jump down to the bottom to find the bone. To climb back past the caterpillar, go behind him as he passes, quickly go up the statue, and jump up to the platform.
You have to gather three ingredients and mix them into a sleeping potion. There is a medicine man who will mix them for you, and you can feed it to the shark in a coconut. (see the related question)
tooth island derives from a very giant shark whose tooth was bump at the sea and some molds grew unto it until suddenly it came very large as century past by.
you have to put big booga to sleep then swim past where he blocked you.
You jump to the left, or their might be a moving platform! Good Luck!
