Author Topic:   Back in '87 Eyespied1 Member posted 30-05-2006 18:16             Back in 1987, I was working in a mine on the West Coast, I won't say which mine as most concerned would understand. Anyway one Friday night I worked back for 6 hours and left around 10.00pm and was driving home with my lights on High and My Hella's lighting up the road for flamin' miles. As I came down off the hill onto a straight piece of road(hard to find they are) doing about 100k's, up ahead about 300m I spotted a dog like creature in my lane walking off the road and as I neared to about 50m it was climbing the embankment, I could make out a Tannish, Grey colour but could not distinctively see any stripes as it dissapeared into the scrub. The one thing about it's behaviour that stood out is the fact that it did'nt even look towards the lights, nor did it attempt to speed up as I approached, It was a steady walk all the way, even climbing the embankment. Now this did not take place in an area surrounded by Rainforest it was paddocks of open ground with Wallabies and Rabbits a plenty, I know this as I went and camped there later on but saw or heard nothing. But I know in my heart that what I saw was a Thylacine and I am now planning to return to Tassie to find Proof! IP: Logged
