KnownUnknowns's video: The Crazy Story of Stuckie The Mummified Dog Who Has Been Stuck In A Tree For Over 50 Years

Thanks for watching... Fifty years ago a 4-year-old dog went up a tree chasing something. He never came down. The dog, known as Stuckie, was discovered in 1980 when loggers cut the oak into logs. They found the mummified hunting dog lodged in a hollow stretch 28ft up near the top of the tree. The dog found 20 years after it got stuck. Instead of sending the tree to the Sawmill, the workers donated it to Forest World - a tree museum in Waycross Georgia. The dog was named Stuckie following a 2002 naming contest. Staff at the museum reckon the dog's body mummified because an upward flow through the hollow tree created a chimney effect - carrying away the scent of the dead animal, which would usually attract insects and other organisms.
