On the Trail of the Yay-Ho -A cryptozoological expedition to Andros Island - Tony Healy - Monster Safari

One afternoon I visited Jeremiah “Bob” Dean of Love Hill, a wise and kindly old guy, well known for his hunting skills and knowledge of traditional bush medicine. Because he’d been worried that the yay-hos were in danger of extinction, he was very happy to hear of Gebelein’s sighting: “To my mind he saw nothin’ else but a young yay-ho – because there’s no other creature around here that’s hairy. I heard they’re in the shape of a man and live in caves. They’s very powerful. If you buck a woman yay-ho you’ll be alright, but if you buck a man yay-ho he’ll kill you. The onlyest thing you can do for them is to catch a fire – they run from that because that can burn the hair on them, you see.”
