Yowiehunters Forum

Has anyone ever tried music as a lure or something else? maybe we could (later on) see how a yowie reacts to different forms of music..like...they might feel sad and back if they hear a slow song, or they might get agressive and hostile when they hear hardcore grunge, and maybe they might even start dancing if they hear hip hop or dance music...thatd be a sight...lol
just a suggestion....

Or maybe next time the team is out...take some M&M's or something and lay a trail out or throw a few packets here and there and see if you get any reaction from the yowies...chocolate is supposed to make you feel, well, you know.....lol..so maybe it would work on them...I wudnt want to be in the way if it did work...

mate, check out the expeditions. They're attracted to whistling. Try playing some Neil Diamond. Dean'll know what i'm talking about.

Ahh WWN.. will there ever be a better supermarket tabloid?

I actually posted this as a joke mostly..nothing serious...

Welcome to the world of (cue spooky music) the unexplained. "Nothing serious" could be something vital.

A friend of mine was playing a recorder (wind instrument) by a large dam one night. Something took some time out of it's nighly sojourn to grunt and shake a tree at him. He said the hairs on his neck stood on end... and while he never saw anything, just a twenty foot tree shaking at the waters edge he was happy to settle on Koala.

Do Koala's hate whistling? Can they shake twenty foot trees?

I know the place... I just can't see a Koala by itself taking umbrage to music.

Maybe I want to believe too much.

When I make my Yowie decoy, I'm going to give him one of those party whistles... and a little party hat, slightly askew. Stick him out in the bush at New Years Eve and see if I get lucky... Well, if he gets lucky.

Cheers Buck - The part about the recorder and the tree shaking is true. The Yowie Decoy will only be true when I make it.

Don't forget the Jim Morrison sunglasses.

Just randomly thinking.. how about this.

A chain wrapped around a branch of a tree, and hanging off the tree is a birdcage or something, wrapped in barbed wire. In the cage, some food.

Wait & see what happens? :
