Yahoo Creek, An Australian Mystery

By Tohby Riddle

'He was surprised to observe a hairy human form, about seven feet in height, walking in the bush.' Queanbeyan Age , 24 August 1886 Throughout the first century or so of Australian settlement by Europeans, the pages of colonial newspapers were haunted by reports of a bewildering phenomenon: the mysterious yahoo or hairy man ... But what was it? Yahoo Creek breathes life into this little-known piece of Australian history - which, by many accounts, is a history still in the making. 'These stories are not my stories or your stories, they're our stories.' Peter Williams, Ngiyampaa Elder
