Yowiehunters Forum

Has anyone put a connection to these being in the same locations.
I have bee sites in all my local research areas which have Yowie activity.
Anyone else

If you are referring to sites in the bush with bee hives, have you spoken to the owners of the hives in the different areas to see if there has been any predation by something big? Or did you mean you've already established there has been predation of honeybee hives by our Yowie friends in your area and you are curious as to whether any of us have found the same thing in ours?

Kind regards,
Shazz

I was referring to to the apiary sites. I have spoken to the owners of these properties and they are bewildered as to why some sites get vandalised. Like the boxes knocked over and broken and sometimes just the lids removed.
Seriously no one in there right mind would do something so stupid, but then again.
Yes I was curious if anyone else had found any similar activity in there areas.

Both native and introduced Bees up here in quite a few areas if you really look.

I would have to put activity in both the Bee and non Bee areas though (some inhospitable areas in the non places though, no doubt they could be their)

I must say a lot of "areas" do have bees in the surroundings, it didnt even click till I read this Yeti. If its really related or not is an interesting question

Sticky,
Thats what the forum is about, I don't mind sharing a few secrets (can't tell you everything though .
Its a very interesting subject which has some merit.
As I said my areas have apiary sites that are used quite a lot mainly in the warmer months when the trees are naturally in blossom. Take a look at the Piliga area it has dozens of Apiary sites at anyone time and there has been quite a lot of activity over the years in that area.
What is interesting though is a at the same time the bee boxes are out so too are the Moreton Bay figs in fruit which is a favourite food source for our hairy friend. When these come into fruit thats when the activity starts.
In saying that though, brings up another subject about migration (nomadic), I'll touch on that in another post .
