A yowie is a strange ape-like creature of Australia, usually frequenting the bushland of southern Queensland. A diary entry written on 25 July 1851 stated they were "short, stout and of very muscular appearance... covered in thick black hair...the stench of their body is unbearable...great hunters of the forests and jungles...They come and go without being seen. They can hide in the undergrowth in such a manner that one can be touched or struck without their person being visible... These were the Woningityan/Won-ingee-tyan - the shadow men creatures of the jungles and forests..."
