Adelaide:
Farmers in the Adelaide hills have discovered mutilated animal corpses
and burn marks on the ground which UFO researchers claim indicates alien
spacecraft have landed in the area.
The
latest claims follow rumours of dozens of sightings of UFOs in the
rural areas of Mt Barker and MT Sterling, about 20km south of
Adelaide.UFO researchers claim bizarre killings have been covered up by
the military in a bid to quash a UFO scare in the area.
In
one incident researchers say, a farmer discovered four cows with holes
drilled into their skulls and the brains removed. According to the
reports, farmers have been warned to "keep quiet".
HUSHED UP
Other
discoveries, researchers say, include egg-shaped "pod" marks near the
property. These indicate a craft had landed, they claim.
Rocks in the pod holes were crushed, tree tops were burnt and dozens of birds found dead nearby.
Police
in both areas said they had not been told about the animal mutilations,
but many people in the area had reported seeing UFOs and strange lights
in the sky.
Adelaide UFO
researcher, Mr. Colin Norris, said he had been told to "drop off" -
after making enquiries into the sightings. Mr Norris, a director of the
Australian UFO research society, said "The area where the bodies of the
cows were found is often used by the army and is closed off".
"I have been told they asked the farmer to remain quiet about the animals and that they would cover the whole thing up"
"If
it is all true - and I have no reason to doubt that it is not - then it
must be checked out becuase it tallies with similar incidents which
have happened all over the world - most of these kind of incidents are
hushed up in one way or another"
Mr.
Norris said the pod marks and burnt tree tops indicated a craft had
landed in the area - but the discovery of the dead animals suggested
"extraterrestrials" had left their ship.
He said: "These beings would have to have left their craft to get to the animals"
SPACECRAFT
"
There was a similar report in the United States a few years ago where a
farmer tied a calf to a tree by the by the leg. He returned to the calf
sometime later and claims it was being pulled into a spacecraft. He cut
the rope around its leg because it was screaming in pain".
"Later he told UFO investigators he discovered the skin of the animal - minus its carcass."
"And there have been dozens of similar incidents of animal mutilations reported across the world".
SUNDAY TIMES, PERTH, AUSTRALIA
UFO Near Gladstone - 1996

Wednesday
night, May 22, 1996, at about 9 p.m., home owners in Gladstone, a town
in South Australia, Phoned the police to report unusual lights in the
sky.
Answering
the call were two officers, Senior Constable Andrew Luhrs and his
partner. At first, Luhrs feared the lights were flares from a ship in
distress out in the Spencer Gulf. But when the cops arrived, they saw "a
strange star-sized light" on the western horizon.
"The
reports were of a star-shaped light above the horizon which seemed the
change colour to red, to white and then to blue," Luhrs said. "The light
would throb with an increased intensity prior to each change of colour
and hover in the sky for some time and then dart and cover large
distances, doing a number of right-angled turns at high speed. We
observed the same lights as these people saw and confirmed their
suspicions."
In
Brisbane, an Air Services Australia spokeswoman said one of their ASA
helicopters was searching the ocean near Gladstone between 7 p.m. and 10
p.m. that night. The search began after an aircraft in that area
reported picking up faint noises on their emergency frequencies just
after 6 p.m. "But there was no aircraft reported missing," the
spokeswoman said, "And the search didn't turn up anything. It appears
there was some kind of static on the signal. It's not something that
I've dealt with before--it's unusual."
Also
on Wednesday night, a few friends spotted a UFO with "a flashing red,
white and blue light" near the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) base at
Amberley.
In Ipswich, Queensland, at around 11 p.m., two men captured the UFO on video.
On Sunday, May 26, 1996, the Melbourne Sunday Herald-Sun ran a story on the flap entitled "UFOs Sighted Around Nation."
According
to Ross Dowe of Australia's National UFO Hotline, "People saw
multi-colored lights moving around (the sky) in Horsham (Victoria) at
10:30 p.m., in Wangaratta (Victoria) at 10:40 p.m. and in Sydney (New
South Wales) at 9 p.m."
Wangaratta is 235 miles east of Horsham. Also, Wangaratta had previous UFO sightings this year during January and February.
UFOs were also seen Friday night, May 24, 1996, around the city of Adelaide, 120 miles south of Gladstone.
According
to the Sunday Herald-Sun, an eyewitness, Kathy Dickman, 47, and her
family watched three lights in the sky for 20 minutes, beginning at 9
p.m., in the Adelaide foothills. "We thought it was a plane or
helicopter at first, but they were moving like you wouldn't expect
anything we know of to move," Mrs. Dickman said. "Then we pulled over
and just watched as the lights just hovered, flashing on and off about
every second or so for about 20 minutes."
Colin
Norris, director of the Australian International UFO Association in
Adelaide, said six UFO sightings had been reported around Australia
during the week. He said callers described the UFO as "a white ball the
size of a full moon which hovered and then sank to the horizon over
several minutes."
Note: Australia's ongoing UFO flap began January 1, 1996 with sightings at Myree, a desert town near Wangaratta.
ALIENS IN ADELAIDE.
Adelaide
Hills grazier Andrew Davidson is frankly baffled. What spooked one of
his horses to go into a wild, galloping, whinnying panic for a couple of
nights recently? What caused a big, egg-shaped "circle" to appear
mysteriously on a remote paddock about the same time?
"It's
almost as if you'd brought a huge branding iron down and went whoooosh
and pulled it up again," Andrew says, shaking his head. "Like putting a
brand on the hide of a cow - but the strange thing is, the grass isn't
burned. It's more like it has had the life sucked out of it and been
left lying down in flat patterns."
Andrew,
who owns a large sheep farm 35km east of Adelaide, points out the odd
patterns - one clockwise, the other anti-clockwise. The dead grass patch
[ring] is 56cm wide, forming an egg shape 22 metres by 13 metres.
"There were no wheel marks - no trucks or tractors or rollers," Andrew
says. "My mate can back me on that." (There were definitely no signs of
tracks when we went to the site 11 days later)
Andrew's
friend John Purvis was the first to find the circle as he cut across
the paddock to get wood for his fire early on November 16. "The
untouched surroundings really puzzled me. I raced home (he lives in a
cottage on the property), got my video camera and recorded it.
"It
was weird about our horse, too. He was in the same paddock as the
circle, and a few nights before I found it, he was galloping and
whinnying and carrying on like a mad thing." Andrew Davidson's way of
heading off the skeptics who might think he is crazy has been to call in
a group of experts to unravel the mystery.
"I
got the agronomist from the Department of Agriculture at Mt Barker. I
wasn't there when he called, but from what I've heard he was totally
perplexed. When I talked to him later he said, 'Look, there's no
biological or agricultural explanation - no fungus, no root-rot or
weedkillers or anything like that."
Graeme
Budgen, a scientist with a consulting engineering company who did soil
and radiation tests, found strange readings in the circle. The salt
content in the circle was 40% higher than the rest of the paddock (a
characteristic of "UFO circles") and radiation was up.
"The
moisture content is especially weird," Graeme says. "It's much higher
on the circle than away from it, yet the soil on the circle feels and
looks dry and crumbly and the rest of the paddock is soaking wet.
There's something very strange here and I cannot conclude what has
happened. My opinion is that it's no hoax. A hoaxer couldn't duplicate
an elaborate thing like this." [There's a couple of very good photos,
one showing the egg-shaped 'track' from an elevated position with three
men standing inside, and one close up showing the 'dead' grass]
Colin
Norris, director of Australian International UFO Research, agrees.
"I've looked into thousands of UFO phenomena and I can spot a fake a
mile off. This is no hoax. There has been a visit from an
extra-terrestrial craft here, for sure. In the eight weeks leading up to
this I had a spate of UFO reports around these parts. The Air Force
rang me because they were getting so many reports of lights moving and
standing still in the Adelaide Hills."
As
the evidence piles up, Andrew Davidson admits his lifetime disbelief in
UFOs has taken a battering. Crop circles, or "the calling cards of
UFOs" as their believers call them, were first reported in 1976 and
serious research began in 1980. One of the most controversial sites has
been in the Wessex Triangle in England - an area rich in mystical
associations and location of Stonehenge.
