Also there is a Movie that I'm in named "The Real Lost World" with the premiere airing Dec 10th, 17th, 2006 on Animal Planet; Dec 14th on Discovery HD Theater in the USA.

Animal Planet flew me to the Amazon Jungle for just over 4 weeks to shoot this great Movie.

The plot - A modern team of explorers venture to the legendary "Lost World"- the remote jungle plateau of Roraima in Venezuela. Cut off from time and the jungle below, feared by natives because of "evil spirits", flying reptiles and other beasts, Roraima has sparked human imagination since the time of the 19th century explorers. Sherlock Holmes author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle based his book "The Lost World" (1912) about men and dinosaurs on the tales from early explorers to this plateau. This was the inspiration for Jurassic Park. The modern expedition team encounters the animals, people and extreme habitat on its route across the Gran Sabana and up the 9000 ft. mountain. Once there they explore a new cave system, that may well contain new forms of life.

Not sure when it aires in Australia, but will be sometime soon.

Gday Dean.

I am just curious about the recent sightings reported in Warragamba, Gayndah, and putty rd. I know a pretty good spot just outside of Warragamba which if anybody saw would say Yowies would live there Nortons Basin which has water fish birds mountain ridges worth looking at.Also i have pictures of stick formations out on the putty road which i believe were done by our hairy friends. Also i spoke to my uncle the other day who him and whole family lived in Gayndah for God knows how long. He said the area in which myself and him and other family members had contact with the Jinrari is now flooded.

Roxby Downs!!!!!!!
Not exactly ideal habitat....


Can't wait to read all the updates though. Thanks for all the hard work.

Hello Beastman what is that an answer to which location if you were responding to my question..

Rob,

Back to you soon - via email. Thanks for your info in the past.

I'll grab a rip of it off a torrent site when it comes out!

Awesome Dean cant wait to see an update

Movie sounds good aswell

A Yowie in Cranbourne!

Which part of Cranbourne?

I live in Cranbourne.
There aren't many areas around here
these days that a Yowie could hide in,
except maybe the Botanical Gardens.
Its not like it was 15 or 20 years ago.

Let me know the exact location and
I'll have a good look around.

PS I'm thinking of taking the family camping
through the Strzleck's along the Grand Ridge
Road in December/January. This includes the
Tara-Bulga region etc. Any one else out there
feel like a camping trip that will double as
a Yowie excursion?

yes what a place for a yowie to be _if it wasnt for the mine there wouldnt be anyone there to see one-sorry but its a crappy place for a holiday destination!i wrote out a reply to dean on that roxby story when he first told me
not a spot i would put down for a big yowie but maybe those small red fuzzy guys or a big cat-yes

Dean: Will 'The Real Lost World' be available on DVD at all? If so, I demand a signed copy.

Will be interesting to read the Ipswich report, seeing as I live close to there and still haven't been able to explain the calls I heard and posted about.

Peta, could you possibly give me some more info? I'm kinda near Ipswitch, and would love to check out the surrounding area.

Just wondering where I could find extra info on the 2 Central Coast sightings...??

Are they in the new Cropper/Healy book?

Was it long ago?

Hi Alex,
Sorry, I didn't see your question to me until now. Here is some of what I posted originally:

[quote]I am now living on acreage backing on to natural bushland - on the border of Mt Crosby and Kholo with Upper Brookfield over the other side of the mountain. The property to the rear of us recently bulldozed along their fence line to clear lantana etc. The following night a strange call was heard by myself and hubby echoing through the gully. Every dog in the area started barking and at first I figured it was probably a dingo. As the calls continued and due to the speed the animal was traveling I had to discount the dingo theory. To cut a long story short, I thought it sounded like a mountain lion and hubby thought it sounded like a strangled goose. We decided that it had to be a dingo as we know they are in the hills around here. However couple of nights ago, calls were heard again traveling through the gully. Even the neighbours came out this time with a torch to try and see what it was. Definitely is not a dingo, travels too fast through the adjoining properties (all fully fenced) and no dingo I've heard has ever made a sound like that. [/quote]

I'm thinking now more about the possibility of a big cat, though haven't heard any reports of them in the area.
