Yowie , Kangaroo valley panther or imagination
I was a scout leader and was camping with a group of cubs at Kangaroo
valley south of Sydney. We decided to play a few tricks on the group of
kids and we had a big claw made from steel on a long handle. There was
also a large footprint made as well also on a long handle. While the
other leader was doing camp inspections and breakfast duties with the
group I made my way down to the river and on the way scratched the bark
on various trees along the track at the river footprints were made in
the sand while keeping up on the river bank. The scratchings were about
twelve to fourteen feet from the ground and the footprints were spaced
about five feet apart. I secretly put the tools of deception away. Then
came the fun part, TRACKING, the group was told to look for tracks of
the local wild animals. This was to get a badge. Then one of the more
astute boys noticed the scratching in the tree and asked what could it
be was asked. I reached up and they were about two feet out of my reach
then came the punch line "it was the infamous kangaroo valley panther
that no one had ever seen! Now the adrenalin was flowing. I lead them on
down to the river and then stopped in my tracks and stood still they
all followed suit. What are you looking at I was asked and the reply
came quite!! The silence was deafening and there over there and I ran to
the river bank followed by the group. Again one of the group saw the
foot prints and pointed then out to the rest of them. The funny thing is
from then on they never wanderered off on there own. Back to the foot
prints I paced them out and the were about a foot longer in stride than I
could make. This thing must have been huge about as big as a horse. The
excitement grew with there imaginations getting the better of them
enlarged the beast and the stories of men eating tigers and the like
were spreading like a wild fire threw the group. That night we had
finished tea and it was then stories around the camp fire. During one of
those moments where all conversations seem to cease and silence is
golden a cow in the field let out this almighty bellow MOOOOOO. Not
expecting what was to follow this little guy jumps up from the other
side of the ring of kids and ran as fast as his little legs could carry
him and darts under my left arm and says you can look after me wont you
sir!? Yes I says and the conversations went on into the night. Back a the
scout hall a week later the leaders myself included were asked as to
what went on at the camp as all the kids had night mares for the
following week. We were forced to reveal our hand and the tools of
deception and not one of those kids would admit that they were conned
and all said they knew and were going along to keep the leaders happy.
National parks and the water authorities
I was walking in the bush in a controlled area that is it is gated to stop the common trash entering the area. I walked deep into the area and low and behold trash dumped in the bush by whom you might ask.
If I was going to dump rubbish then I would have dumped it at the gate, not carry it two kilometers into the gated area and so would any normal person.
It appears to be the ones with the keys to the locks are dumping the rubbish. The custodians of the lands and the animals. We the people are being forced from the lands by greedy self serving officials with there own agenda. The question is what is really there agenda, the law states that persons squatting on the lands for more than twenty five years get to keep it. These payed positions are given to you guessed it politicians and there families and they will own the land and then there is nothing that can be done.
So the thing to do is enter these areas and keep the land in the public domain.
