on a normal day a lumberjack and their
0:02
co-workers are usually assigned enough
0:04
trees to occupy them and meet their
0:06
quota
0:07
The Lumberjack had let the chainsaws
0:09
Roar all day in order to meet the
0:11
Builder's building requirements
0:13
like every day The Lumberjack and his
0:15
team got down to the task of the day
0:17
with total commitment but as the
0:19
chainsaws warmed up the team realized
0:21
they had to stop they saw something that
0:24
stopped their ongoing operations
0:26
this thing they saw was not very well
0:28
known in the area it was an unusual
0:30
Discovery for the entire work team

to the channel everything was going well
0:41
for the loggers at Georgia craft Co
0:43
until the teeth of the first chainsaw
0:46
began to grind against a particular tree
0:48
it was going to bring the whole team the
0:51
most unimaginable experience of their
0:53
lives
0:54
the world's population does not approve
0:56
of before a station hence their
0:58
discontent so many people are against
1:00
cutting down trees that are sometimes
1:02
the most beautiful
1:04
on the other hand in some regions
1:06
families have based their Industries on
1:08
wood few people are enthusiastic about
1:11
The Lumberjack trade they're mostly
1:13
frowned upon because of the nature of
1:15
their work that is because they cut down
1:18
all the beautiful trees in the woods but
1:21
in Jasper City where every family has a
1:23
direct or indirect connection to the
1:25
lumber industry they are somewhat
1:27
tolerated a large majority of American
1:29
chestnut trees are located in the
1:32
mountains near the town of Jasper and
1:34
are a significant source of income due
1:36
to their commercial value
1:38
chestnuts usually come out of the ground
1:40
and begin to rise in much less time than
1:42
Oaks
1:43
one fine morning in 1980 about seven to
1:46
eight Georgia craft co-workers left
1:48
their homes to work just after 10 AM
1:50
they were all in an empty truck heading
1:53
to the site for the day it was a normal
1:55
day at least until noon as soon as they
1:58
got back to work after lunch they
2:00
noticed something strange about one of
2:02
the trees
2:03
Upon returning from the break a strange
2:06
thing was noticed on the trees to be
2:07
felt this is something unusual a new
2:10
discovery made by workers since they
2:12
started working in this profession they
2:15
were on schedule and had cut down most
2:17
of the chestnut trees they should have
2:18
cut
2:19
few of them remained including a
2:22
particularly light tree that appeared to
2:24
be hollow inside at first glance it
2:26
looked like it would require the
2:28
simplest of effort compared to the rest
2:30
of the trees
2:31
however the tree contained a terrible
2:33
Secret in itself and which they were
2:35
about to unearth
2:37
once the tree trunk fell to the side the
2:39
loggers started cutting it into smaller
2:41
sizes for easier transport
2:44
however during this routine process one
2:46
of the loggers noticed something unusual
2:49
they had previously assumed the tree was
2:51
Hollow and they were partly right in
2:53
this case the sunlight should have
2:55
penetrated the trunk from end to end
2:58
but it didn't which meant one of two
3:00
things the tree was not Hollow or there
3:03
was something in between so what did the
3:05
men find out
3:06
what was wrong with the tree everyone
3:08
was waiting to find out about this thing
3:10
several other loggers took a look at it
3:13
and walked out with confused looks on
3:15
their faces
3:16
how the hell did something like that
3:18
happen there what was it anyway it was a
3:21
terrible scene let alone the very first
3:23
such discovery
3:25
one thing was clear to the loggers they
3:27
couldn't really use the tree and they
3:29
had to see it as a loss of their job but
3:32
they also knew that what was stuck
3:33
between the tree trunk was meaningful
3:35
and precious so they took the most
3:38
logical step they called their manager
3:41
but the manager asked them to
3:43
concentrate on the day's work as needed
3:45
they continue now the men sat down and
3:48
discussed the matter
3:50
what he had seen in the hole was
3:52
described as a monster with fangs and
3:54
Paws but this thing seemed as still as a
3:56
statue you could say it has been there
3:58
for decades
4:00
hang in the tree looked like a monster
4:01
trying to jump others saw him as a wild
4:04
dog that growled and gaped its teeth
4:06
despite the varying descriptions one
4:09
thing was clear to anyone looking inside
4:11
he was a living being well it wasn't
4:14
alive right now but it must have been
4:16
there for a while
4:18
curiosity grew and everyone eagerly
4:20
waited to learn how the monster got
4:22
stuck in a hollow tree
4:24
questions and guesses flew but only one
4:26
of them was correct the clue was on the
4:28
creature's teeth something they caught
4:30
closer on a second or third look it
4:34
seemed pretty obvious once they got an
4:36
even closer look this animal stuck in
4:38
the hole has a description close to that
4:40
of a puppy
4:42
to have a long muzzle long claws on the
4:45
legs and sharp fangs these
4:47
characteristics were visible at the
4:49
entrance to the trunk but the mystery
4:51
didn't begin to unfold until loggers
4:53
discovered the creature was a dog they
4:56
suck when they learned that at one point
4:58
this creature was a living dog
5:00
curiosity was growing in the
5:02
consciousness of the workers and
5:04
everyone was trying to figure out what
5:05
had happened to bring the creature into
5:07
the situation
5:08
for this reason many questions were
5:10
posed to them shortly after completing
5:13
the day's chores the loggers dragged the
5:15
log to what they thought was the right
5:17
place this was the place they thought
5:19
were all their questions about the
5:21
strange dog and his tree would be
5:23
resolved the right place to take the
5:26
journal was to the scientists who the
5:28
loggers believe could provide the
5:30
answers needed but it took a while as it
5:33
took them over a year to get answers in
5:35
1981 a year after the discovery
5:38
scientists finally found the answers the
5:41
loggers were relieved to have solved the
5:43
riddle however they couldn't help but be
5:45
sad about the dog's true story
5:48
this place is known for its Rich
5:50
collection of wood from All Over America
5:52
in Waycross Georgia there is a museum
5:54
called the southern Forest world
5:57
the museum was opened as part of the
5:59
forest industry in the southeastern
6:00
United States it shows a collection of
6:03
Timber production from colonial America
6:04
to Modern agricultural techniques here
6:08
the dog landed still held in the trunk
6:10
of the tree as an art object for the
6:12
people they had decided to give it to
6:14
the museum authorities who had helped
6:16
solve the puzzle in fact a great idea do
6:19
you think so but the museum needed the
6:22
dog's backstory the only information he
6:25
had at the time was that the loggers had
6:27
discovered the trunk they wanted the
6:29
real story Christina kilgrove a
6:31
biological Anthropologist came to the
6:34
scene to investigate the possible
6:35
background
6:36
this initially appeared to confirm
6:38
earlier observations that the dog may
6:41
have been mummified
6:43
but then she quickly dismissed the
6:44
sightings pointing out that it was next
6:47
to Impossible
6:48
however the biological Anthropologist
6:50
based at the University of West Florida
6:52
had exactly the explainable answers the
6:56
expert therefore began to provide them
6:58
with explanations to better help them in
7:00
relation to what had happened
7:02
although her explanations were more
7:04
scientific she tried to do it in a
7:06
simplified way Christine broke down the
7:09
explanation bit by bit starting with the
7:11
process of tissue breakdown that
7:13
triggered the putrefaction process when
7:15
microbes began to eat the tissue shortly
7:17
after a death they grow they reproduce
7:20
and they start to take hold of the body
7:22
it happens very quickly explain the
7:25
Anthropologist this was of course a more
7:28
logical explanation would you agree with
7:31
that what did you think she then
7:33
presented the internal structure of
7:35
chestnut trees this explanation allowed
7:38
workers to understand why the fur of
7:40
this species was not yet decomposed
7:43
Chestnut trees contain tannin and
7:45
desiccant an organic substance capable
7:48
of absorbing moisture Christine
7:50
explained that it is indeed a
7:52
characteristic of the chestnut tree that
7:54
keeps nature from taking its course
7:56
therefore the dog's body lasted much
7:59
longer in such an environment
8:01
lack of humidity prevented germs from
8:03
eating body tissue but that was only
8:05
half the explanation what odd scavengers
8:08
It might smell the body from a distance
8:10
and run for potential food
8:12
we therefore understand very well that
8:14
even if the Beast had no chance of
8:16
surviving it died without suffering with
8:19
exact fur
8:20
the absence of microbes in the trunk
8:22
made it safe from wild birds anyone that
8:25
eats dead meat would never know it was
8:27
in the tree said Bertha Sue Dixon
8:29
director of Southern Forest world since
8:32
there were no active microbes there was
8:34
no scent to attract carnivores and even
8:36
if there was a smell it would be blown
8:38
through the hollow trunk and away from
8:40
potential scavengers
8:42
it all made sense but the big question
8:45
stuck in the minds of many how did the
8:47
dog get there it seems that the
8:49
mummified dog in this chest was once a
8:51
hunter
8:52
according to a researcher it was during
8:54
a hunting session that he entered the
8:56
hole while pursuing his prey from which
8:59
he could not get out according to Bertha
9:02
the dog was a hunting dog and he had to
9:04
hunt something in the tree
9:06
in 1960 the dog was four years old when
9:09
he died he must have chased a raccoon or
9:12
a squirrel by going through a hole and
9:14
following it deep into the trunk he may
9:17
have even tried poking around and never
9:19
have noticed that the trunk was
9:20
narrowing upwards the tree had a great
9:22
height which did not discourage the dawn
9:25
from going towards its prey
9:27
when he reached two eight feet above the
9:29
ground he could not get out of the hole
9:32
long remaining in the hole the
9:34
phenomenon of the chimney carried him
9:35
away for life
9:37
the dog must have been adamant because
9:39
he never gave up on pulling the trunk
9:41
until he was at two a feet tall he was
9:43
never able to free himself from the
9:45
Chestnut and died there a chimney effect
9:47
occurred in the hollow shaft creating an
9:50
upward draft
9:51
this took away the smell of the dead
9:53
animal that would otherwise have
9:55
attracted insects and other organisms
9:57
that feed on dead animals the hollow
10:00
tree also allowed for relatively dry
10:02
conditions and the tannic acid from the
10:04
oak helped Harden the animal's skin
10:06
the museum dog has a very high
10:09
reputation in this place
10:10
however no one knows the name of this
10:13
famous dog one of the museum that housed
10:15
it gave it a name to identify it until
10:18
2002 the mysterious dog did not have a
10:21
name
10:22
he was popular as a mummified dog in the
10:24
southern forestry world and was the
10:26
center of the museum amid important tree
10:29
species such as Cyprus Pine and Oak
10:32
today he is the ambassador of the museum
10:35
which now uses his image in most of its
10:38
promotional materials and postcards what
10:40
an incredible story we never expected
10:43
such a discovery and you finally the
10:46
mummified dog had been named by the
10:48
Museum Circle
10:49
finally visitors to this public place
10:52
could personify it and identify it among
10:55
the works of art that are on display
10:57
that name found was Stucky after the dog
11:01
was known for years as the mummified dog
11:03
it was finally given the name Stuckey
11:05
the name was born after a lively naming
11:08
contest in which the three names Stuckey
11:11
chipper and Dogwood received the most
11:13
votes but it was Stucky that turned out
11:16
to be the most popular name
11:18
Stuckey's story intrigued many unhappy
11:21
and sad this hunting dog would have had
11:24
the Good Fortune to be a good and
11:25
faithful friend if this unfortunate
11:27
story had not happened
11:29
whether people feel sorry for Stucky or
11:31
not they find his story quite intriguing
11:34
therefore it will stay where it has been
11:36
for the past few decades you can take
11:38
your family and friends for a fun day
11:40
trip and visit Southern Forest World in
11:42
Waycross Georgia
11:44
let this story surprise you we promise
