Two Teenagers Tried to Shoot Australia's Bigfoot. Now the Whole Town Worships It

On the night of December 28th, 1979, he and a friend, both sixteen, were out in the bush near Sandy Creek, about four kilometers from the center of Kilcoy. They saw it at the treeline. Tall, dark, hair-covered. And in that first jolt of fear, they fired. The bullets missed, and the creature took off. What they did next is the part I keep coming back to. They didn’t run for the car and floor it home. They spent the entire night out there, sitting wide-eyed beside their loaded guns, waiting for the sun. Only at first light did they leave the campsite to go raise the alarm. And then, days later, they came back. They came back to the place that had terrified them, and they brought their biology teacher with them.
