Mythical creatures - or are they?

I spend an hour every night - 10:30 till 11:30, watching a series of programs on Foxtel's Animal Planet channel. Yes - I need to get a life.

 

The first series was called Finding Bigfoot. Four adventurers travelled the world US, Australia, UK, Viet Nam, Nepal, Canada, Brazil, etc., following reports of a large, 7 - 8 foot humanoid creature covered in hair, being sighted in rugged bushland. Here is a link to the most famous footage of a Bigfoot or Sasquach:

 

 

Despite spending inumerable nights in the forests, speaking to hundreds of people who claimed to have had encounters, and collectig lots of "evidence", they have not filmed an encountere with Bigfoot.

 

Another researcher travelled to the basecamp of Mt. Everest and on into Nepal and Bhutan, but didn't get to film a Yeti.

 

The current series has a group of researchers with an incredible array of technology from remotely controlled airships to sound recording devices, infrared and thermal cameras and binoculars and a multitude of sound and movement activated trail cameras which they strap to trees and leave unattended. One of these cameras was realigned from itsoriginal position, and they say a bear or other animal would not have been able to  do that.

 

As of last night's program they have recorded two heat signatures that cannot be identified, but which, when approached, suddenly vanished. They could not be tracked moving away, just disappeared like a light being switched off. Interestng to see what tonights episode reveals.

You couldn't possibly actually find a Bigfoot or a Yeti, that'd take all the suspense and mystery and money-making out of it! I can always recall the sizeable number of people who faked "mysterious" sightings and weird footprints.

Found another series of Bigfoot hunters on Foxtel and Youtube. The show is called Mountain Monsters. Instead of scientists and researchers with what appears like limitless budgets for technology, this group are a bunch of redneck hillbilly good old boys, stomping around the forests in the dark with loaded shotguns. The storylines are like an Abbott and Costello movie. eg., Bigfoot has discovered fire, Bigfoot has drawn maps on cave walls, Bigfoot can hypnotize you, etc.

Off to see the shrink.    😝

Darned Libs - can't leave anything alone 🙂

And that is proof of how the media plays to the libs.....

Back then, the media didn't make any fuss about the federal 'Abbot & Costello' show !

But nevertheless, a lot of my colleagues thought it hilarious.

MYTHICAL CREATURES

You all seem to pay out upon yeti/bigfoot searchers. But at least they are searching for something that, although it might not exist, they believe enough to go looking.

 

However, I notice that there are no bunches of believers out there, eagerly searching for proof that honest politicians exist !

Remarkably intelligent creatures. In this series, the researchers have had one trail com re-aligned, off the pathway or track, without the animal being captured on the SD card, another which was strapped to a log beside a waterhole picked up and thrown in the waterhole, log and all, and in last night's episode, the trail cam was torn from a tree, smashed in peices on the ground, and the SD card was missing. It's posible a bear could have done it.

There have been numerous reports of “wild hairy men” down thru the ages and in several continents, some well documented. Some of those descriptions are consistent with Neandertals. 

Scientists tell us that our early human cousins were widespread, but incredibly small in number.

 

I’d life to think a few have survived into recent times.

There are some interesting anecdotes of encounters, including from law enforcement, and from Native Americans. It is claimed one of the reasons they can apparently "vanish into thin air" is that they camouflage themselves like the Ghillie suit used by the military and some hunters. See picture below. Step behind a tree, crouch down and they are gone.

I know it all sounds fairytale pie-in-the-sky type stuff a bit like aliens amongst us, but having watched a few hours of these expeditions/investigations, with a couple of different research teams (excluding the mountain men), and listening to interviews with Native Americans, it would appear that these creatures are from another dimension and have the ability to move back and forth between dimensions. What is intriguing is that there are reports of very similar creatures on just about every continent including Australia (the Yowie). How is this possible for wild creatures to spread so widely, and not yet been recorded (supposedly)? Ex-military personnel say the US government knows about these creatures, and their cloaking abilities. Surprisingly, one or two researchers out in the forest conducting night investigations, using infra-red lights to avoid detection, and out of nowhere, black military helicopters start circling overhead. You have to wonder.

 

Anyway, makes a change from reality shows (The Block, MKR, Farmer Wants a Wife, et al), and Gen Z crap that usually takes up time on the TV.
