The Police believe at least one person is involved in Samantha's disappearance.Could someone recap what today’s presser about and does vpol believe more than one person is involved in her disappearance? Did they refer to family business as well ? Thanks in advance
There are alpine dingos, there are packs of wild dogs all over this country, there's even feral pigs destroying farm land all through Qld and NSW, you don't want to be charged/attacked by those. Farmers dont own all bush or land, they battle these persistent problems to this day.If there were such a thing, all the farmers with livestock would know about it and would probably have shot them already.

Haha love this, I grew up in a small town in the alpine region and as a kid it wasn't even a joke, there are big large black cats in the lower alpine region hills and bush, it's not even a joke to the locals, it's just one of those things, I've seen many over the years, I'm not saying they are Panthers necessarily however Panthers were brought to the area in the late 1800's and in the 1900's by some wealthy types who like exotic animals, the theory is some were released or escaped but one thing I can tell you is the handful I have seen on the country properties I grew up on and through many bush adventures they had tails 50-80cm long.It's about as plausible as the Beast of Bodmin and Nessie, so, salt cellars at the ready.
Like legends of subterranean tunnels under cities and towns or through mountains, stories of big cats roaming the land where they aren't native seems to be something that catches the imagination of many people all over the world.

There are wild dogs in the High Country of East Gippsland, but are controlled by baiting programs and paid trappers. I have lived on a farm in the area. There aren't wild dogs in Central Vic, I know this area well too. Here's an interesting article on wild dogs in the High Country.There are alpine dingos, there are packs of wild dogs all over this country, there's even feral pigs destroying farm land all through Qld and NSW, you don't want to be charged/attacked by those.

Correct, they obviously have access to some sort of GPS data from her devices. The data has thrown up some sort of information that has led them to this spot of interest.Another point i noted about the press conference this morning was that for all the questions about the phone data that could not be commented on, officer Hatt did confirm one point....the data did show that after Samantha left her home she was 'on foot'.
JMO...I'd say the Police will have a path that take them to where the data stops...or at least stops moving.
And vehicles were coming and going all day!Correct, they obviously have access to some sort of GPS data from her devices. The data has thrown up some sort of information that has led them to this spot of interest.
Wild dogs are the pits. Pigs too. Mum has the misfortune of being in wild dog territory. (Northern Rivers, NSW). They tend to be Alsatian mixes with dingo. Always see a dingo on their own, the wild dogs are generally in a group. I know a fair bit about them, had my horse there, cows. They are clever. The big landowner next door had a shooter with a scope, said the baits didn't work to well. The mother's would bring the pups over to the bait, shake them by the scruff if they got too close.There are wild dogs in the High Country of East Gippsland, but are controlled by baiting programs and paid trappers.

Wild dog explosion - Bairnsdale Advertiser
Beef and sheep producers up around the Black Mountain, Gelantipy and Buchan regions are warning of a disastrous situation, where they say wild dog populations will ‘explode’ and affect everyone, not just livestock but campers too. The region’s number of wild dog trappers are declining. The...www.bairnsdaleadvertiser.com.au
Yes, and they actually don't want everyone contaminating the area!I honestly believe that the police have had the information about Mount Clear for a long time. Tomorrow is the search that had been arranged by Facebook/community members, they have paid for a professional bush tracker and there will like be hundreds if not a few thousand searching. It's a direct insult to the police as they are implying they have to do it themselves, so police have come out the day before and said you are looking in the wrong place, to make them look like idiots and that they are doing their job.
Speaking of the family business, was it open on the Sunday Samantha went missing? If it was closed i wonder if she was taken there that Sunday morning.A Current Affair just reported that police had visited the family business and a number of items were taken.
The bikie that killed his partner and then himself not long after Sam went missing, maybe she knew something her hubby had been hired for and was at risk of squealing. Maybe he was taken out too in a setup. You just wouldn't know, my friend (who grew up in Mt Clear) and I discuss all sorts of theories... An acquaintance from high school days was murdered and first hung in a cupboard to look like a hanging, then moved and dumped in a mineshaft near Ballarat (Kobie Parfitt, couldn't find a thread on here..). Nothing will surprise me when we hear what has happened.I just watched the police update on A Current Affair. I didn't catch the last question asked by a reporter, nor the police response. The police officer smirked and looked away after his answer. Can someone tell me what was said. We have a big electrical storm here atm and the reception keeps coming in and out. Also, a question was raised re bikies and panel beater businesses often have links to bikie groups. Any theories?
I was wondering this too?Speaking of the family business, was it open on the Sunday Samantha went missing? If it was closed i wonder if she was taken there that Sunday morning.
Does it have an incinerato
