Savage Landor by natives of Porto Principal, Peru, of a ship in the sky that had passed over the town, as interpreted by him. They told of a huge square globe, flying a flag of Stars and Stripes, with an anchor dangling. It moved a little higher than the tree tops, and terrified the natives. Mr Landor thinks may have been Wellman's abandoned balloon, with which he tried to cross the Atlantic. That was Oct 17, 1910ab. 400 miles East of Hatteras. / L.T., Oct 19, 1910that the Wellman airship had been abandoned as a total loss, because machinery broke down.

This curious amphibious quadruped was first reported to have been seen near Gundagai last week by a young man, who described it as being about the size of a calf, with a head like a rhinoceros, with two tusks in forehead, and its neck and fore-quarters spotted. It emerged from the river, and was making for his dogs but beat a hasty retreat, when he and his dogs showed perturbation.” “Since then a highly respectable resident of Currawarna, 20 miles below Wagga, is reported to have seen the monster issue from the river when he went to attend to his fishing lines at daylight.” “The latest sight of it is reported to have been gained by some boys swimming in the river at the rear of the English Church here. The description of the Bunyip on these appearances nearly tallies with that given by the Gunagai youth.” [SF-I: 81.1 to 81.4. “The Bunyip.” Sydney Daily Telegraph, November 8, 1902, p. 8 c. 4.]

According to the descriptions given of [th]is, this colossus of the animal kingdom is not carnivorous; it lives on vegetables, but more particularly on a certain species of tree, of which it eats the leaves, the bark, and even the trunk, lt never lies down, and sleeps leaning for support against a tree. It has rather the shape of a wild boar than of an elephant, and is fifteen feet high. His body is covered by a hairy skin, and he has no horn." "The Mammoth."

"Do not be too much surprized at the mention of a quadruped so famous for its size, and which has long since been considered extinct. Though tbe present age is only acquainted with the skeleton of the Mammoth, there are grounds for believing the present existence of this once formidable and gigantic animal. Various Indian accounts have lately reached us of its having been seen on the Big Praire, not far from the head of the Redwood River St. Peters. The latest account of it is given by the Sioux (as they are termed) a wandering tribe of Indians. They describe it as being far superior in size to the Buffalo, or any known animal that abounds on tbe Mississippi or its waters. On seeing this animal the Indians were alarmed and terrified. They conceived it to be the Match Matchi Maniton, or evil spirit."  "The Mammoth." Scots Magazine and Edinburgh Literary Miscellany, 82 (n.s., 3; August 1818): 170-171. "A letter from a gentleman near Fort Wayne (America) to the Secretary of the Western Emigrant Society, gives the following particulars...." "Perhaps this country affords more recent remains of the Mammoth than any other. Such specimens as I have seen are less decayed. If any reliance can be placed upon the reports or traditions of the Indians, it is not more than 70 or 80 years since the last of them existed. Last fall an old Indian, in testimony of an account he had been giving me of the Mammoth, and the skeletons he knew of, brought me a grinder, that, from its appearance, I would not suppose had been more than three or four years since it had been in the use of the original proprietor. It has some of the masticated food adhering to its recesses, so fresh as to be perfectly distinguished as such. The Indian has engaged to conduct me next spring to the spot where he took the grinder, and where he believes the rest of the skeleton to be, principally covered with soft mudand to another one, that, he says, he thinks is as perfect as that. The Indians give some account of the external appearance and habitude of this huge animal. They say that he was of a dark brown colour, of very long hair, formed something like a hog, large pendulous ears, small sharp eyes, resembling those of a hog, divided hoof, very long in proportion to the width, and no trunk like that of the elephant. I endeavoured to learn the manner in which the tusks were inserted, whether the curve was up or down, but could not be informed. They say he did not lie down, but rested leaning against a tree:His food soft wood, of which he ate the whole trees of the largest size, as well as the small, and was very partial to the Lynd; and that he was in no degree carnivorous:That he was not a great ramblerhe rested at night, for a length of time at the sane spot—removing his nightly resting place only from scarcity of food."]


[Animals] / BO / 1872 / Oct. 26 / Story of a creature like a pig with a long bushy tail in Queensland reported by a mounted trooper.

"The Herald's Brisbane correspondent writes:Some days ago one of the mounted troopers reported that he had seen near the Police Paddock a nondescript animal of the most astounding make, and that he endeavoured to approach it, but his horse was too terrified and would not go near. The constable and others who have since seen it describe the monster as being about the size of a large pig, the head and fore part of the body having the shape of that animal, although with great staring eyes. The hinder part resembles that of a dog, with a long bushy tail. Last Monday the Governor and suite, with all the mounted police available, and a number of others, went out to try and capture the strange beast, but came back unsuccessful, although they tracked him to his lair, and found that he was evidently fond of sweet potatoes, amongst other vegetables. Attempts have since been made to 'bag' the brute, but he seems to prefer the recesses of the Three Mile Scrub to a closer acquaintance with humanity."]

"It is not our purpose to go into a web of theories to substantiate the assertion made in the caption of this article, but simply for the present to record the fact that from a well of water recently dug on Sherman street there was yesterday raised to the surface in a single bucketful of water six diminutive fish of the tom-cod variety, which can now be seen at the store of Star & Bullock. The tom-cod is nowhere found except in salt-water, and is, as far as we know, a native of the Pacific Ocean, and its appearance here through such a source confirms the belief in the underground river and ocean theory. The well from which these fish are taken yields water but slightly impregnated with salt, or, more properly, sodium, but its presence is sufficiently perceptible to pin our belief on tbe theory that the well has tapped a salt-water artery whoso fountain-head lies in some of the Pacific Coast ranges. This is also the opinion of Mr. Star, whoso geological researches extend over a period of seventy-five years, and whose name has been prominently set in the brightest constellation of the scientific firmament. The specimens thus far raised to the surface vary from one and a half to five inches In length. The side and top tins are large and beautifully colored in the most delicate purple and carmine tints, and, the eyes are a jetty black." ("The Tom-Cod Fish."

"The 'Thames Advertiser' has the following respecting an extraordinary animal which has been captured at Porter's Creek:—'This animal was caught in a swamp by dogs; the legs, or arms and legs, were tied, and it was lodged in a vacant room in Mr Baker's store. And now for the description. This Maori gorilla has, it is stated, a head somewhat like a native, but two tusks stick out, one on each side of the head. The body is as dark as that of a Maori, with hair on the arms and legs. He grunts somewhat like a pig. So far for the description. The animal is apparently miscellaneous enough in his feeding, for we are informed that he is to be brought over here for public exhibition, and we must say we should like to see him. Since writing the above, we have received some further, and, in some part, contradictory particulars. The animal, or monster, has been living with the natives for a long time, although it is now, as stated above, in the keeping of Mr Baker. It would almost appear that the famous 'missing link' has been discovered at last. The natives say that it is a hundred years old, and that it is 'tupuna' or ancestor. Thus it seems they are not so proud as wo are, who do not care about believing that we are descended from monkeys." "The New Zealand Gorilla." Nelson Evening Mail, (New Zealand), October 17, 1870, p. 2 c. 4. This gorilla turned into an old Maori woman, "said by the natives to be 175 years of age."]

They were startled by a cry like a woman's scream. They searched, and coming to a hollow tree, heard sounds above them. "Looking up they saw the face of a human being among the upper branches. It was not a natural face, but one of which the features were exaggerated and distorted—very large, red eyes, an immense mouth and teeth, which were really tusks, protruding above and below the lips. They discovered also that the body was that of an animal, resembling a large dog in shape, and having a covering of long, shaggy hair. The animal at once became restless under the gaze of the men, and started down the tree head first. Hauser and Guth were now thoroughly alarmed. They retreated from the tree as rapidly as they had approached it. The animal, however, made no attempt to attack but alternately uttering a low mournful sound and chattering like a monkey it ran or jumped on its hind feet out of the brush and across the open space, again disappearing in the woods. They describe it as being about five feet high, when standing up, having arms shaped like a man's, but hairy, and long fingers from which protruded claws. The face was like a person's, and the body and hind legs resembled a bear's. It was of a brownish color with a lighter tinge under the chin and arms. The nondescript is one of the most remarkable animals ever heard of. It is probable that a party will be organized to destroy it. [SF-I: 214.1 to 214.8.

[Animals] / (See Dec. 14, 1892.) / 1890 / June 19 / Pub. Ledger of—"The following remarkable story comes from Arizona, via a Cincinnati paper. A winged monster, with an extremely elongated tail and an immense pair of wings, was found on the alkali desert recently by two ranchers. The creature was evidently exhausted by a long flight, and when discovered was able to fly but a short distance without resting. After the first shock of amazement had passed, the two men, who were on horseback, and armed with Winchester rifles, regained sufficient courage to pursue the monster, and, after an exciting chase, succeeded in getting near enough to open fire with their rifles. The creature then turned on the men, but owing to its exhausted condition, they were able to keep out of the way, and after a few well-directed shots the monster rolled over dead. The men then proceeded to make an examination, and found that their victim measured about 92 feet in length and the greatest diameter was 50 inches. The monster had only two feet, which were situated a short distance in front of where the wings joined the body. The head, as near as they could judge, was about eight feet long, the jaws fully set with strong, sharp teeth. Its eyes were as large as a dinner plate and protruded aboout half way from the head. They had some difficulty in measuring the wings, as they were partly folded under the body, but they finally got one straightened out sufficiently to get a measurement of 78 feet, kaing a total measurement, from tip to tip, about 160 feet. The men intend to skin the creature and send the hide East for examination by eminent scientists." [SF-I: 216.1 to 216.8. (Philadelphia Public Ledger, June 19, 1890.)

Suddenly a powerful fishy smell became perceptible, and people coming in from the fields reported the presence of a huge creature, about the third of an acre long, in a pool of water. The next day a few people ventured out to see it. It was quite white, with scales two feet in size, with horned head, claws, and a long tail, just as represented in the pictures. On the end of the 18th of April, fine weather returned, and the dragon was gone. Foreigners do not talk about dragons, but we Chinese do.

A vertical column of pale red light extended from the upper part of the sun's disc to about 3° of altitude; its intensity was observed to be constantly varying, being at times very bright, at others, scarcely perceptible. In these changes, which were exceedingly rapid, it was not unlike the Aurora Borealis, the light always appearing to shoot upwards, as is most usual in that phenomenon. The breadth of this column, which was visible for about three-quarters of an hour before and after noon, was equal to that of the sun's diameter, and it was much the brightest next the sun.

Of course this is due to extraordinary refraction, for in our latitude the sun to-day at noon was 52' below the horizon.

Nature, 89 (August 22, 1912): 644-645. Stefansson, Vilhjalmur. My Life with the Eskimo. New York: Macmillan Company, 1913, 199-202. Stefansson's suggested that the "Blond Eskimos" were actually the descendents of Scandanavians who had lived in Greenland colonies, (not genetic mutations nor descendents of European explorers and whalers). "If the reason that the Victoria Island Eskimo are European-like is that they are of European blood, then the Scandinavian colony in Greenland furnishes not only an explanation, but the only explanation." Pálsson, Gísli. "Genomic Anthropology Coming In from the Cold?" Current Anthropology, 49 (September 2008): 545-568, at 551. "Basic results of this work include the following: (1) Greenland and Kitikmeot Inuit are relatively homogeneous genetically when compared with Yupiit, Chukchi, and Aleut populations; (2) the mtDNA haplotype cluster frequencies of the Chukchi and Yupiit are intermediate between those of the Aleut and those of Kitikmeot and Greenland Inuit, which supports the idea that the Siberian populations are representative of the ancestral gene pool of the Aleut and Inuit groups; (3) for the Inuit of Greenland and Kitikmeot, 30 haplotypes were observed, representing four basic phylogenetic subclusters of mtDNA haplogroups A and B; (4) significant differences appear in the frequencies of haplotype clusters among the subgroups of Greenland and between the groups of Kitikmeot, Siberia, and Greenland (while A2b haplotypes predominate in Kitikmeot and North Greenland, A2a haplotypes predominate in West and South Greenland); and (5) there is no indication in the Kitikmeot data of Inuit-Norse admixture. This finding refutes Stefansson’s speculations on the Copper Inuit and raises the question of why he and many of his contemporaries became obsessed with 'blond' features." Stefansson had not found any lost tribe of the Vikings.]
