Not sure wildebeest.. Possibly due to their race, vulnerability, and secluded accessible lakeside lot. I did read in an article about a Putnam County preacher of the New Life Outreach Christian Center in Eatonton, GA, that was very vocal in the early 2000's concerning his opinion of DM York and the NC's true intentions for the area.. Not sure if the Dermonds were connected to the church in any way.. Still researching and reading the Ungodly book.. It is very eyeopening...

For instance, in one lecture York said: White people are the devil". ....
The NC is classified as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center

Racial, legal issues cloud 'Egypt of the West'

Gus Kilgore, pastor of the New Life Outreach Christian Center in Eatonton, said he has opposed the Nuwaubians because he considers some of York's teachings and writings to be anti-Christian. Kilgore has spoken out against the group on some of his local radio broadcasts and is trying to form an alliance of black and white clergy to oppose the group.
"They've come here and are saying, 'Move over and let us have our way, and if you don't let us have it, we'll take it,' " Kilgore said.
The Nuwaubians sometimes have "shown a hostile spirit" in their relations with county residents, Kilgore said, adding that he has received anonymous threatening letters.
