Description
The Yowie File by Tony Healy and Paul Cropper is a comprehensive exploration of Australia's most enduring mystery. For centuries, Aboriginal people have spoken of huge, shaggy creatures lurking in the continent's rugged mountains and deep forests. These mysterious beings, known to various names including yowies, have been encountered since time immemorial. The authors present a wealth of Aboriginal lore, alongside hundreds of eyewitness reports dating from the early colonial era. They examine footprint finds, tree damage, yowie "nests" and other physical traces, revealing seasonal variations in reported yowie activity. This companion volume brings the yowie saga up to date with the gripping testimony of dozens of modern era eyewitnesses. By combining traditional knowledge with recent discoveries, The Yowie File offers a fascinating insight into one of Australia's most baffling zoological mysteries.
