IPSWICH YOWIE MIGHT BE BACK

[paulmcleod67]

Seems moving to Tivoli in Ipswich Queensland was the right move considering the following...

WEDNESDAY JANUARY 25, 2017
The Ipswich Advertiser reports
CURIOUS CASE OF THE MISSING GINGER PIG
"She's a super friendly 50kg, three year old ginger pig and she is still missing in action.

The pet was stolen from a Brisbane TCE home at Redbank on October 4 last year and despite extensive efforts,
Stock and Rural Crime Investigation Squad detectives are yet to sniff out a single lead."
"Unfortunately the pig is still missing and the matter has been filed pending further information, meaning
basicly that they have exhausted all avenues at this time,and unless new information comes to light,
there is nothing further they can do," a QPS spokesperson said.
The pig is described as ginger in colour with distinctive black spots.
She is one of multiple stock and farm animal thefts in the Ipswich region, many of which are unsolved.
Two hereford cross calves were stolen from a property at Atkinson Dam near Lowood between August 15 and September 6.

One of the calves was about four months old when it was taken.
A seven-year-old paint quarter horse mare, chestnut in colour with four white socks and a white blaze is suspected to
have been stolen from Ripley in early May.

Phone Policelink on 131444 or provide information using the online form 24 hours per day."

MOVE over Mulgowie Yowie. You are not alone.

For the first time the QT can report on yowie sightings at Rosewood, Redbank and Yamanto as Ipswich strengthens its
standing as a "yowie hotspot" amongst researchers.
The famous yowie at Mulgowie may have the highest profile in the region but other mysterious hairy beastlike
creatures of the bush are not going to be denied.

Carlos Cabernet, a former resident of Flinders View, told the QT of the yowie that he saw and often heard on the Yamanto
and Flinders View side of Deebing Creek while growing up in the region.

"There was one particular time when I was 13 and camping near the creek bed and heard him in the early
morning within metres of us," he said.

"We jumped out of the tent and he was across the creek just looking at us with his beady eyes.

"He was crouching down, very big...just a hairy fur ball mass. If he'd stood up he would easily have been eight feet.
"He was so hairy that you couldn't determine too many facial features, but you won't forget those eyes once you've seen them.
"I saw him another time when he darted behind trees at dusk.

"He was always around, especially in the warmer months.
"Quite often you'd hear him in the distance yelling out and going off. It was a screeching kind of yelp.
No animal makes that noise.
"We'd hear him for 13 years but towards the end of 1992 he was never heard of again."

Cabernet said the yowie resembled a large apelike creature in appearance
Researcher Ray Doherty has a blog called the Australian Yowie Project and has been fascinated by yowies for 20 years.

Doherty said he'd had numerous subsequent encounters with yowies in the Sunshine Coast hinterland
region but it was an experience near Rosewood, on the Mt Walker West Rd, that pricked his initial interest.

"The very first experience I had with what I believed to be a yowie was in June, 1995 right near Rosewood on
Mt Walker West Rd," Doherty said.
"I used to be an amateur astronomer in the 1980s and 1990s and we used to go out through places like Rosewood
and the foothills of Mt Barney where there is some of the best viewing in winter.

"We'd pulled off to the side of the road, got our telescopes out and sat them on the top of the car to have a look.
"It was around 1am and the wind had picked up and there was this really foul stench.
"We thought that maybe there was a dead cow nearby.

"Minutes later we heard close by an ungodly sound, a cross between a shriek and a scream.
"There were four of us and we looked at each other and said, 'this can't be'.

"The stench smelled like it was getting closer. We had some high powered spotlights and shone them in the
nearby field where we saw the red eyes of the cattle, but then we spotted what looked like big yellow eyes.

"We looked through binoculars and the eyes would change colour as the head moved.
"Then we saw it stand up. You could make out the fuzzy shape of it and all of a sudden it rose up to stand seven
or eight feet and started slowly moving towards us.
"Then we took off, headed into Rosewood and discussed it.

"We went back half an hour later and found no evidence of anything except a fence was pushed
down in the same area."
Doherty, who also spoke of an experience with a gorilla-like creature at Coochin Creek in 2012,
has a most recent article on his blog about scientific analysis of an alleged yowie hair follicle which
determined it belonged to a creature "right on the border of humans and apes".

The QT sighted a top secret file on a yowie sighting in Redbank just a few months ago.
A yowie researcher investigated the incident but has yet to release his full report publicly.
But we have sighted an excerpt from the report which states that "today I spoke with a woman who claimed
to have seen a yowie in bushland in the Redbank area".

"Her sighting occurred close to residential housing in broad daylight and lasted about 12 minutes during which
she watched a large hairy bipedal creature through binoculars."
The researcher was in town to follow up the possibility that the yowie was in fact the Mulgowie Yowie,
after the QT had reported earlier that another researcher had claimed it had "moved to Redbank Plains".

This lines up with a possible sighting recorded in 1986 and first reported in 2001 by Dean Harrison's Australia Yowie Research website.
If that was true, the yowie is unlikely to be the same creature said to roam Mulgowie.

"Every few years someone comes up with a report from the Redbank Plains area, but God knows why," Harrison said.

"The Ipswich area seems to be a yowie hotspot. There are so many out there, but to say it is just the one yowie is ridiculous."

Doherty said when the existence of yowies is proven once and for all it would "open up a whole new range
of academic and scientific study".
"But more importantly we can then get their habitat protected. If we can prove that these things are real
with hard science it will be one of the greatest discoveries in Australia's scientific history"

Did "Tim the yowie man" get it wrong concerning stock losses in 2013?

Considering the latest spate of missing stock reported above I think so.
I'm basing my "assumption" on the ever increasing pin map I've been putting together
and although it's still early days, there seems to be a migratory pattern forming in terms of sightings, missing
people and unusual stock loses that the authorities can't explain.

The aim of all this work is to hopefully find a predictive migration pattern leading to, at the very least what Ill call "ambush photography"
with the ultimate aim of finally confirming to the scientific community and general public the reality and dangers of the Yowie phenom.

Yowie not to blame for stock losses
DON'T blame the Mulgowie Yowie for stock losses.
That is the word from cryptozoologist and yowie expert Tim the Yowie Man. The QT was told by one landowner to investigate the legend of the Mulgowie Yowie after he lost several sheep in a recent attack.
But Tim the Yowie Man says yowies are not known for making flagrant attacks on stock.
"It is very unusual that a yowie would go to an area where there are stock and attack at random. All reports are that a yowie eats just what it needs to survive," he says.
"Most stock losses I would put down to wild dogs or cats."
Tim the Yowie Man said he saw a yowie in the wild in the Snowy Mountains in 1994.
"That is what prompted me to look into the yowie phenomena," he says.
"It was eight foot tall, long arms, no neck, covered in black fur and loping through the bush."
Tim the Yowie Man says Mulgowie is a noted "hot spot" for sightings of the elusive creature.

Science is at its heart a method of accurate prediction. Accurate prediction requires detailed background research.

So catching (what may be) the Ipswich Yowie on film, was indeed a fluke (not a hoax) however it was an educated fluke.

And here's the footage, Please forgive the long winded start, I just feel that events leading up to a sighting are as important as the "guts" of a sighting.

Cheers

Still stoked

Interesting... can you post an image from going back of the same spot from the same angle please?

[paulmcleod67]

Sure thing matey.

I'm going back with a large tape measure today, but for now here's an approximate height area with an insert of the "creature".
