The name ‘Yowie’ is the rather affectionate term for an unidentified hominid reputed to stalk the Australian wilderness...
Yowie is native to the Australian Aboriginal folklore.
This Australian cryptid is similar to the Himalayan Yeti and the North American Bigfoot...
The Yowie is said to be a bizarre, hybrid beast, sometimes with big red eyes on the side of his head, big canine teeth and large fangs.
It emerges from the ground at night to eat whatever it can find, including humans.
This creature’s characteristics and legend are sometimes interchangeable with those of the bunyip...
Yowies have been reported by some witnesses to be unbelievably aggressive, and to pursue people with what was interpreted as predatory intent.
Yowies have sometimes been reported to peer into windows, hang around the outsides of houses, and to approach cars on remote roads – all motifs that sound familiar if you’ve read the sasquatch literature.
In further parallels with sasquatch, extremely bad, lingering smells have also been associated with Yowie sightings, and Yowies also seem to be good swimmers and waders...
