HAHA I remember this . <| sep |> if we run with the lost tribe of hunters theory , maybe they only need a certain amount of meat to sustain themselves a year equating to about 40 human bodies . that would mean they have some sort of preservation system in place to keep the meat viable until its ready to be eaten . I ' ll start by saying that I have no intention of slandering native Australians , they ' re good people and they help us a shitload with what we have to do out here . The other reason that I doubt it was a lost tribe of natives is because the campers themselves within somewhat of a ' net ' of civilisation . As you can see from this map we started at the red ' X ' which is the botanical gardens and moved between there and Mount Wilson . A tribe would at some stage have to cross one of the surrounding towns in order to get in and out of that specific area of the mountain . Doing so would raise flags as even at night the surrounding roads are quite active . The other reason I doubt a tribe took them is the lack of marks . If a tribe took 30 people there is absolutely no way for them to have caught and removed 30 adults without dropping a shred of blood , or showing 0 signs of distress , or leaving a single footprint . Its just not plausible . Even with these stories I ' m a sceptic , I don ' t believe in ghosts and aliens . For two main reasons specifically . 1 . While I have seen things that I can ' t explain , I feel like admitting to myself that there was paranormal interference with these investigations is just an excuse for me to give up on them . Its easy to say that aliens took them and completely detach myself from the investigation . But avoiding that I acknowledge that they have to be somewhere and I need to keep looking . Even if I feel like I ' ve lost all other hope . 2 . Timing of these things don ' t make sense . If Aliens were to have interfered with this particular case then it doesn ' t make sense if the campers had breakfast set up and ready to eat . That would mean they were taken by a craft at around 9 am . I mean unless aliens have cloaking devices . If they did have cloaking devices then it doesn ' t make sense that we get reports of strange crafts or lights in the sky , as that would indicate that these particular spacecrafts actively want us to see them , if that were the case I strongly believe that they would have made closer encounters . I ' ve spent months on months thinking about this , I have psycho analysed every angle and while UFO is probably the most likely , I don ' t want to admit to it and admit to giving up and that they are gone forever . I mean they are just my thoughts . You could be right . However we spent that entire day tracking that area between Mount Wilson and Mount Tomah . If 30 tribesman with 30 captives managed to out manoeuvre us without a trace than I would be greatly concerned about what else they could do .
