you may find a particular passage in Robert Edward Peary's account on the recovery of the Saviksue or Great Cape York Meteorites interesting. On page 559 following of "Northwards Over The Great Ice", Vol. II, the great explorer gives the only scientificly confirmed report of how a couple of dogs got killed by a meteorite. More precisely, they got drowned by the "Woman". I have paraphrased the episode on my website:

Just in case, this is intended as a post about Greenland meteorites, we do not want to talk about Egypt, won't we.

Hi list,

As some of you know, I am always looking for stories of strange
meteorites for my folklore archive.

These can be old or new tales, fragmentary or anecdotic or full
reports. Meteorites bearing inscriptions, faces (yes, I noted the
Jesus and Elvis appearances), containing artifacts, weird colours,
etc. I collect real claims, or literary ones. I am also looking for
very silly meteowrongs (not mere amorphous stones).

Anything you come across would be appreciated...

Many thanks, and merry Xmas!

Chris
