Possible vocalisation

[Rusty2]

Hey everyone ,
We've been getting a lot of rain here at the moment . So on tuesday morning at 5:30 , I woke up and realised that we were probably in for a flood . It was flogging down . I got in the car and raced out to pick up a timelapse camera I'd left on the creek bank . I also went to " the spot " and left chocolate for Mr hairy and swapped audio recorder's . I went back out there this morning and left fruit and swapped the recorders again .
I call out to " it " when I arrive and toot the horn when I leave . You know , regularity . The recorder picked up 12 hours of rain but also picked up a sad or dissapointed noise . The thing is , I'm hopping into the car when this happens . In the audio you can here the car door slam . It heard me arrive . And as I was leaving it went to get the fruit . It didnt see any and made a sigh of dissapointment .
I havent picked up any audio like this before . It sound's dissapointed to me .

You be the the judge ............Rusty2............

That defiantly sounds like the Yowie version of "Aw". Which brings the question. If it is a general sound of disappointment, they're more.. "evolved" that i'd previously thought. To express an emotion like that would mean that, well they have more than basic primate feelings. It sounded as if it was thinking "wait, what.. you're going, no food? i'm sad".

This, if it is what it is.. it brings out a whole new aspect of thinking in regards to our hairy friends from my point of view. In a way, when I heard the vocals, I felt almost.. well, a pang of sympathy for the poor bugger.

"Torrential rain, no fruit.. sigh.. what is this world coming to!?", as the Yowie would say as it trudges back to wherever it sleeps.

Hey Deaedpool ,
Thats what I thought straight away . A mixture of dissapointment , sadness and loneliness . Maybe it "is" alone out there .
I think it might be starving , although there seems to be lots of wildlife . Maybe it's to old to hunt and now has to rely on root's , nut's and berries , although I did see it once briefly , it's massive . I'm not sure what to do . Dont wanna get my arms ripped off if I'm wrong . LOL

Here's an extended version . The loud noise at the start is me jammin the recorder inside the pipe .

That would have to be one of the most eerie things I've heard vocalisation-wise, if that's what it is.
Maybe I'm anthropomorphising here, but I did feel sympathetic, for exactly the reasons Alex mentioned, however, I've thought for a very long time that these hairy folk are more than a match for us in many ways, and I don't think of them as animals at all, they are a people to me, so I wasn't surprised by that rather sad-sounding sigh.

I think I'd be disappointed too if I got used to a visitor dropping by with free snacks!

Have you considered leaving out a small jar of honey, with the lid loosened a bit? If it's gone without a trace next time you leave, that would eliminate the chances of the food items being snitched by wildlife without opposable thumbs. Next time you turned up, he or she might be waiting for you with an exchange gift!

[Rusty2]

Thank's Mike ,
I've spent heaps of dough on this journey but it has been extremely rewarding . Even to get one tiny little piece of info makes everything worthwhile , just for a glimpse into the their lives .
Hey Shazzoir , I agree . A people , with feelings and emotions like you and I . Maybe I can befriend it , one day .

Who would have thought that little recorder could reveal so much .

HI - YA RUSTY

As i see it most good frienships are formed upon a base of trust and your hairy friend is trusting you to leave the goodies each time you visit the site , please don't let him down again . It is very interesting from a research point of view but hopefuly it will not stiffel your attempt to make a true connection with this being .

I feed a Butcher bird on my back verandah every morning at the same time and if Iam not there at the exact same time he warbels and looks knowingly through the window untill I feed him . If a simple creature such as Butcher bird can have learned responses just imagine what you may achieve with a Yowie as a subject . There I said it YOWIE , YOWIE , YOWIE !!! .


Keep up the excellant work - well done . I think we are getting closer .



HOW CAN I DISCOVER IF IAM NOT FREE TO ROAM !!!! !!!! ( et al me )

[Rusty2]

Hey Al ,
I totally agree . TRUST . I'am "trying" to make friend's . I'd love to learn what he or she know's . Never say never . It could happen .

Oops! You just got caught!

Hey Docterscream before anybody jumps to conclusions.

I just had to have another listen to both of them and I have to say Rustys you can not hear the rain to much where as trailriderresearche's you can its quite heavy and prominent, also the "sigh" as rusty puts it is a shorter and alot quicker in his recording, where as trailriderresearch's has two "sigh's" and they are alot longer stretched out.

To me they sound very different, but do have similarities.

Seeing as we have Yowies here in Australia and also Sasquatch over there in the states, could it not be that the sounds recorded are very similar because Yowies and Sasquatch are very similar??? There language may also be the same???

I dont think Rusty is the type of guy to start plagiarizing another's work.

[Dean Harrison]

Same expression, different recordings Dr.

Back ground noises of the BC recording has heavy rain and thumping prior to the vocal. The equipment had a dull ambiance.

As where Rusty's has very light rain, birds in the background in the beginning, a far more acute and sensitive mic, no thump prior to the vocal and the vocal itself was a little shorter.

Same type of apple, but different tree.

As to what it is, too hard to tell. Up to everyone to draw their own conclusions.

Doctorscream is banished due to the fact that we have only just now noticed that he had edited all of his previous 163 posts over the past 2 years down to the "letter D" for delete.

Hardly credible behavior for reasonable debate from an individual who enjoyed sparking controversy. Very disappointing display of Character, by not standing by his claims and contentious views, yet re-entering in an attempt to create more, which we assume would also have been deleted after the fact.

Hey Guy's ,
Just for the record , I've NEVER ripped off anyone's work , let alone claim it as my own . Can send you the whole 12 hour recording if you want .

Rusty2....................

[Shazzoir]

Rusty, don't even think about it.
Doc Scream is an 'interesting' person, but even he has overstepped the boundaries if what Dean says is any indication.

Nobody here thinks otherwise, so do NOT waste one nanosecond of your time, energy or power to worry about it, please.

Have to say I'm a massive fan of your results and work, and will be looking forward to anything you and the rest of the AYR folks who are getting out there and DOING stuff to promote understanding of our cryptid friends.

Hey Shazzoir ,

You get that I suppose . My first piece of criticism , stoked !

Rusty2.................

[The yowie Mrx]

Rusty2 you are a top researcher.

With the vocalisation I wanted to say somthing earlier .
I did a vid in my old tape vid cam but the fuji tape stuff up.A yowie came down from the hill and made a vocalisation the only way I can describe is a old man getting off the lounge or a grunt.
Your vocalisation is the same so in my books you got a yowie.
I heard other vocalisation from people on youtube and here but there sounds are not the same in my area. Im not saying there fake , Im saying different type of yowie.

Any way good work mate.

[Buck]

Nice sigh. I guess he would have walked all that way in the rain for nothing. He's probably thinking... "I told her the missus I'd be back with chocolate''

Good one rusty2

Cheers Buck

Hi guys... Ive always loved visiting this forum, particularly for new Yowie discussion. Im definately an enthusiast. Kinda glad I have physical restrictions (aside from the fact that I live in South Australia).. so Im not tempted to get out there in the field conducting my own research!! A little scary I can imagine!

Rusty, these new results are SOOO exciting! I know we cant be conclusive on things, but I have a great imagination, and I cant for the life of me imagine this vocal being ANYTHING else in such surroundings than our elusive furry friend (we use that word loosely huh, but may be more literal in the future!).

I found your short recording very exciting (and yeah I felt the pangs for the poor guy/girl), but is the extended version meant to include its sigh at the end? I didnt hear it on that one.

Dean.. can I ask you something. I realise it all happened so fast and was terrifying, but when you were bodyslammed by one, did you feel fur/hair/muscle/a hand?

[Rusty2]

Hey Mrx ,
Thanks for the support mate . Bummer you go screwed over with your recording , I did see the vid that you mentioned it in . Not happy Jan . I see what your saying with the differences in vocals . It wouldnt surprise me if there language differed , you know , potatoe potarto tomaito tomato .
Hey Buck , I dont think he/she walks very far at all . I think I pull up in his front yard . Home delivered .
Hey Selkiedarre , the second recording does contain the "sigh" at 20 sec . Both recordings "have" been enhanced "only" for clarity and the hard of hearing . I'll make sure I note that next time , lest I get pounced on again .
