Australia: Yowie Bigfoot spotted in bush near Sydney

Two backpackers on a year long trip around Australia got the fright of their life last week while they were out trekking in bushland in the vicinity of the township of Leura, not far from the well known Katoomba landmark, "The Three Sisters".

It was early evening and by the two ladies admission a bit late to be by themselves in the bush. Ingrid Schön 23, of Germany and Adi Hassan, 22 of France decided to head back into town when they heard the breaking of branches and loud footsteps heading towards them. Ingrid shone a torch onto the track in front of them. At this point they both claim to have seen what they now describe as Bigfoot charge away into the distance. ‘Admittedly we did not get a close look but we think what we saw looked like the American Bigfoot, basically covered in fur and about two meters tall. It definitely had no clothes on and was not human.’ Ingrid told All News Web reporter Jadyn Cassidy. 'We were petrified and almost lost our way back in our nervous state' Ingrid commented. The Blue Mountains is believed to be the home of a creature known as the Yowie, basically Australia’s version of Bigfoot or the Yeti. There have been many recent sightings. Prior to the arrival of Europeans local Aboriginal tribes were certain of its existence. Aboriginal communities still living in the Blue Mountains along with some other locals continue to believe the Yowie might be out there in the vast expanses of Australia’s Great Dividing Range.

"Blobsquatch" is specifically the object in a photograph of a supposed Bigfoot or Sasquatch that has a lack of definition and detail, an illusion created by a play of light within an often unfamiliar natural environment. It is literally a "blob" (an indistinct shapeless form) that may or may not, but probably is not, a Sasquatch. The blobsquatch "creatures" seem to be shadows in the trees, dark spots in the tall grass, light-colored objects on trails, or crossing branches in the forest that assist people’s imaginations in "seeing" a Bigfoot (when one might not be there). One defunct group defined "blobsquatch" as "anything in a picture or film which might be possibly mistaken for a Sasquatch such as a tree stump, a large rock, [and/or] a shadow." While some measure their world with a very rigid black/white yardstick in excluding all blobsquatch photos, of course, someone else’s once and a future blobsquatch could be a really bad picture of an ill-defined Bigfoot in the woods. Thus, one person’s expunged blobsquatch could be another individual’s "initial" piece of potential evidence. The reaction to any one specific blobsquatch remains in the eye of the beholder."

Dr. Van Buren and I are in agreement with you. ;)

It does but it is a gopher. I have a singing one in my office.

Cinderella Kid?

No actually, it dances to the Caddy Shack song at the end of the movie. The dance is virtually identical to the movie.

Silly. I was calling you the Cinderella Kid.

And mistaking a squirrel for a gopher proves I am in the early stages of Somtimers

I don't see him!

Oops.

And mistaking a squirrel for a gopher proves I am in the early stages of Somtimers.

I guess I am in the same boat.

What a terrible burden, your constant inability to not give proper author and/or source credit. Should we take up a collection?
