This Channel is devoted to Australian natural history and "Australiana," especially Australia's unique fauna and flora and also Cultural Heritage such as the Queenslander house and its Edwardian/Victorian architecture amongst other things .
Don't forget that the boab trees in Western Australia are the exact same genetics on the ones in Africa. They can't get here unless someone brought them and who'd carry seeds across the other side of the world to propagate?
Everyone always talks about someone that dies say “well I know he’s up in heaven doing so and so”. Well when they say that about Steve he is one of the very few you can absolutely bet without a shadow of a doubt where that statement is true
He was very happy to help the man with his 4 wheel drive, Jack Absalom knew quite a lot about car maintenance as well as surviving in the bush as well as first aid as well as being an artist.
All of these sightings but no tracks. There is the story on the cape, from a friend, of a hole in his chook pen. Adamant that it was not caused by a python. an animal had forced itself through heavy mesh. It was at night and moved very fast. Before dawn and it was raining. Previous there was a sighting in the area. If they exist they may be like the dingo that know they leave tracks. I would like to know what or if the land aborigines know of the animal. Maybe they are not talking of this knowledge and who could blame them. T
Just a psa that form of "milking" for venom is extremely dated and disgusting. Also love the fact that the so called "experts" are just pissed off people are collecting them before they are... how about everyone just leaves the wild ones alone.
Black leopards are quite rare due to a recessive gene they have. If these 'big cats' are breeding in the bush - where are all the regular spotted leopards.? They would out-number them 20 to 1. Also, where are all the kangaroo carcasses stuck up in trees.? Feral cats can get as big as foxes, but they don't get up to 100 kilos. I've hunted through this country for decades & never seen or heard a leopard.
Trove newspapers may have articles of thylasine sales from baumoris zoo also Tasmanian govt state records & even Hobart museum & library may have the zoos records .
The killing behaviour he describes sounds like a thylacoleo, actually, ESPECIALLY the flesh 'cleanly sheared off', no doubt as if by scissors? Check out the dentition on a thylacoleo skeleton! This might seem far fetched were it not for some VERY clear sightings of jet black creatures that were NOT cats but in fact more like huge ugly possums but could be easily mistaken for such at a distance. See Dennis Wright's little book 'Thylacoleo Lives' for more.
There’s massive areas that they could be doing well as natives have said to Forest the top guy looking for them and endangered to one’s thought gone if he finds a lead , Just saw him the other day in Australia , I spaced his last name , French sounding though he looks Scottish 😅! Had shows or specials on tv and on Joe Rogan speaking on a multitude of topics and he is in the midst of generating a pretty big amount for a excursion proof he says of them with some tribes . Or seen regularly too. Hope they can find and help them come back . A good movie with William Defoe of Platoon fame and many more hits in the movies as he goes there to try and find one and others want the DNA for what’s unprecedented and a huge step towards a cure or something, Saw bits of but looked good . Sam O’Neil in it too of Jurassic Park .
These Big Cats 🐈⬛ are there , Lakes entrance , Gippsland, these Big Cats are super smart , scat , foot prints , blue mountains they are there . Let’s hope humans don’t wipe them out .These Cats will be the worlds best Big Cats, Australian Black Panthers , yes but you need a game dog bred to track cats , not a pig dog!. There are American Military photos with black panther mascots in Australia.
My late father bought me my first Kelpie when I was just 5years old some 52years later I still hold the family tradition no other Dog breed on my property unless its a KELPIE 👍🤠🐨🦘🐏
A wonderful, informative, funny, sad documentary. I'm writing a book about the TV series "Boney", which was produced by Lee Robinson, the man who went to find Lasseter's body for a TV programme (and ended up arrested for having dug it up!). Robinson's friend Nosepeg guided him to the burial site and claimed that he and his father had found Lasseter either dead or dying, long before.
My brother in law lives in Strathbogie, Victoria, and he has seen a black panther at a distance. He explained that he was standing on his property and was looking across to a hill, on the hill was a tree, and this panther stretched itself, placing its front paws on the tree. He later went to this tree, which was a fair distance away. He wanted to see the scale of the tree, because this cat looked the size of a panther. When he got to the tree, he realised that he was correct, that in order for the cat to reach where it did, it had to be the size of a panther. He is 100% convinced that he saw this, and has spoken to many locals who have lived in the area their entire lives. He found that the locals have also heard about many sightings of a black puma, and that it is believed that it was let loose or escaped from the American military that brought Pumas to Australia during World War Two, as their mascots. He now believes it’s a puma or a descendant of the original pumas that have bred with large feral cats. I believe him, he has no reason to lie about it, nothing to gain, he wasn’t able to get video or a photo, as he didn’t have a camera or phone with him at the time. He’s actually the kind of person that rarely carries a phone, let alone a modern one, he’s of the older generation. I believe that he saw a wild cat of some type that was so big, that it reached a part of the tree that no regular cat could reach by stretching.
We in Iraq are looking for these exceptional species that have a fragrance, beautiful flowers, and can tolerate desert weather. There are leaves that tend to be blue and other colors.
The spiders I keep are captive bread also critically endangered poecolotheria Metallica two females of which are mature this summer my intentions are to breed them soon I'm going to need a male can anyone help me with that please get in touch thanks
That was much more venom than I'd imagined as long as the spider isn't harmed and it helps to cure cancer I have no objections to scientific people stressing spiders out really worthwhile objective thank you ❤
