The Leka, the Logger & the Manuscript - The Fortean

Back in 1975 something very strange happened in Fiji. A class of schoolchildren happened upon what they claimed were a group of small, hairy men emerging from a large hole in the ground. Historically, it wasn't entirely crazy to assume these beings were Leka, beings rumored to be already populating Fiji when settlers arrived. Nonetheless, several years and some earnest research later, none of the now mature witnesses had much to say about the event, leaving us wondering if the schoolchildren actually saw something in 1975, or were overcome with too much excitement on a hot day. In more unsolved mystery, TCH brings us Sasquatch Classics: The Davy Crockett Incident. We typically think of Davy Crockett as a soldier or politician, even a frontiersman. Witness to a Bigfoot sighting seldom gets added to the list. But six months before the fateful battle that etched his name forever into history, Crockett encountered something large, hairy, and infinitely strange in the wilderness. The fact that it gave him advice about leaving the Alamo behind is puzzling, but it was good and unheeded advice nevertheless. Nick Redfern delves a bit deeper into unknown creatures with “Buckeye Beasts� Reviewed: Bigfoot & Wild Men. He adds to the mystery in a frustrating but necessary way, pointing out that sometimes witnesses see what could be a Sasquatch, but sometimes what they encounter are hairy humans or escaped zoo animals. As always, research requires an objective mind, and lots of details. (CM)
