I went with the stockman the next day, and was fortunate enough to get a good view of him. He was of a brownish colour, with a head something the shape of a kangaroo, an enormous mouth, apparently furnished with a formidable set of teeth, long neck, covered with a shaggy mane which reached halfway down his back; his hind quarters were under water, so that we could not get a full view of him, but if one may judge by what was seen, his weight must be fully equal to that of a very large bullock. On trying to get a closer examination, he took alarm and immediately disappeared; and although a strict watch has since been kept, he has never again been seen, but it is hoped that the exertions now being made by Mr. Baxter to catch him will be crowned with success.&#8217;  &#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/home.yowieocalypse.com\/Rosa_Praed_The_Bunyip\/\">http:\/\/home.yowieocalypse.com\/Rosa_Praed_The_Bunyip\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8221; &#8220;&#8216;A stockman in the employ of Mr. Baxter was fishing in the Eumeralia, when he was suddenly startled by what he at first imagined to be a huge black fellow swimming in the river, but which I think must be the Bunyip.
