LOCATION:
New South Wales, Australia
TERRAIN:
Dry, woody with lots of lantana. Very steep in areas and quite difficult
to walk on.
OBSERVED:
Had problems for at least 2 years but escalated last 4 months. Rabbits
taken from cage and killed, goats let out of paddock. Rocks thrown at my
children and roof of house. Many tracks going from my home into the bush.
Found what looked like a large amount of human waste. Heard strange barking
and howling noises and bangs around the house at night. Smelled a foul
smell around the home at times. Today saw a very large creature on 2 legs
which was very dark in color and hairy. My dog barked and it ran from an
exposed area on the grass into lantana. A friend witnesses the incident.
Trees have been recently broken and I found a large bone near the home
which my friends believe is from a cow, although there aren't any on my
property or close by. I have heard what sound to be a very large man many
times even during the day and last week was approached in the dark while
holding my large dog. After shouting at what I thought was a prowler, the
footsteps stopped just a few feet away but it was so dark, I could not
see. However the proximity to me concerned me greatly and I ushured the
dog inside rather quickly. On one occasion, while a friend and I were clearing
the bush for a better view for my "prowler", something large came at us,
chasing us down the hill, stopping just short of the tree line so we couldn't
see it. It was definitely on 2 legs and had the ability to move quickly
on very rugged ground. I am greatly concerned about my 2 children as the
encounters are now so frequent and often during the day.
Activities
of Witness: Was sitting with
friend and kids when my dog barked running towards the fence aggressively.
Creature was standing on neighbors property not far from mine.
Description
of Creature: Saw from the middle
or so of the torso. Very large, thick set with long dark brown hair. Too
heavy to guess, would be at least the size of a full grown bear standing
on 2 legs. Took huge step into the scrub.
Other
Notes: N/A
Other
(Informational or Encounter History in the General Area) Notes:
Many for at least 2 years but getting frequent, around 3-6 times a week.
Additional
Notes and or Follow up Comments:
Any information regarding advice would be appreciated. I'm concerned about
my children's, and my safety. Not sure what, if any, intentions these things
have but getting really worried.
