MYSTERIOUS BEAR-LIKE CREATURE HAS AUSSIES STUMPED

GAYNDAH, Australia (Wireless Flash) -- The tiny town of Gayndah, Australia, is baffled over recent sightings of an unusual, furry creature. In the past few weeks, there have been at least five sightings of animal described as being "small, bear-like and covered in hair." The town's mayor reports that most of the sightings are coming from reliable witnesses and are causing quite a stir because bears aren't native to Australia. Some locals believe the creature may be a "jinjarri," a smaller cousin of Bigfoot, and a local newspaper is offering $1000 to the first person who takes a photograph of the mysterious animal. Meanwhile, the Australian Centre for Mystery Investigations is offering a $10,000 reward to anyone who captures the beast.
