出身地:オーストラリア オオトカゲのような頭と体に昆虫のような6本の足を持った謎の生き物。 深く暗い洞穴の中に、ヨーウィーは棲んでいるといわれる。夜行性なので昼間はそこから一切出ず、暗くなると外に出て獲物を探しにいく。 ヨーウィーは肉食とされる。家畜を狙って人家の近くまでくることもあるという。野犬に襲われたとされる家畜たちの被害のいくらかは、彼らが原因だといわれる。Translation: Place of origin: Australia A mysterious creature that has the head and body of a monitor lizard and six legs like an insect. Yowies are said to live within deep, dark caves. Because they are nocturnal, they will never leave from there during the day, but when it gets dark, they will go out to hunt for prey. Yowies are thought to be carnivorous. It is said that they will come near people's homes to look for livestock. They are said to be responsible for some of the injuries to livestock thought to have been attacked by wild dogs.
