MORE MATERIALS ON DIFFERENTIATING BIGFOOT, YETI, SKUNK APE, WILDMAN AND SASQUATCH

Above is a facial portrait and below is a footprint of the Eastern Bigfoot, which is often compared to a "Caveman" in appearance. The term Eastern Bigfoot has been used since the 1970s to discriminate the type, although there are problems with using that term since it has also been applied to the more apelike Skunk Ape (see below), with equal vigour and for about the same length of time.

The footprints and build of this creature (Which I call the American Almas) are very much like Neanderthal fossils and so is the shape of the skull, face and braincase. They are burly creatures built like old-time professional wrestlers and with short bandy legs. Their arms turn out to be not particularly overlong in comparison to Caucasian Homo sapiens, but both hands and feet are large enough to seem outsized. Both hands and feet are squared-off in appearance. The top of the head is usually domed rather than peaked and one gets the impression of a head distinct from the shoulders

The following photo is from Ohio and if genuine it would be one of these Eastern Bigfoots.

It seems to be running with unusual vigour and it has been suggested it would not be possible for a man in a suit to perform this action at such a great speed. The proportions look human enough.

Eastern Bigfoot drawings from an article posted on the blog recently.

The profile is similar to the famous "March of fossil humans" from the Time-Life book Early Man.

The head-on view is a close match for the "Mecheny" Almas seen in Siberia.

Two peculiarities are associated with the American Almas males: the first is that the crown of the head can have thinning hair, or be partly to wholly bald on top; the second is that they can have beards and moustaches ranging from just noticeable to full-beard-hanging-to-the-waist.

Whether or not these photographs represent real creatures, they DO represent what the witnesses are "reporting." These reports do continue more rarely out to the West Coast, and then there are areas both in Northwest Canada and then again in Mexico and points South where they are counted as specific regular types reported in those areas. In Northwest Canada they are the BushMen and in South America they are the Didis and Maricoxis.

Blogger Jay from the companion blog Bizzare Zoology sent in this illustration tpo my Facebook wall. He said the "Wild Woman" illustrated on the house pole could be meant for one of my American Almases and he pasted the skull alongside for comparison. It looks like a good match to me.

Further to the south there are what Sanderson called The Little Red Men of the Bottomlands (or of the Mississippi delta) and wondered if the reports could be related to runaway orangutans (in 1961): soon after that, "Skunk ape" reports started coming in from Florida

There was some variation overall in the kind of apes they were said to look like, chimpanzees were alleged almost as commonly as orangutans. And yet the striking similarity to orangutans insited on in all of the best reports and shown in photographs is very hard to discount or to overlook.

There is a great range in track shapes depending on how closely the big toe is clenched to the foot

Footprint cast for the Skunk Ape: in this example, the two smallest toes seem to have run together in casting. These tracks characteristically show an opposed big toe: more recently they are often said to resemble the Orang Pendek tracks from Sumatra and lately publicised. Below is a comparison of the-is kind of "Bigfoot" with the typical (Smaller) Yeti from the Himalayas. A close match in proportions and stance.This type of Yeti is ordinarily said to be the size of a teenager or a young man for the males, females much smaller.These Yetis typically live at lower altitudes in the jungles (where they are known under different names) and only rarely go over the mountains when they need to get from one valley to another, and that most likely because of feeding patterns and population pressures.

has a small pointed head which does not have a distinct neck or separation from the shoulders visible

Both arms and legs are thickly muscled and the hands reach as far down as the knees.

The eyes are small, round, dark, and placed close together, nose is flat and the ears are rarely seen.

The Patterson film shows a creature that is entirely consistent with the usual descriptions and footprints (Footprints as found and as shown in the film)

The shape of the Sasquatch (Above) is unmistakeably different than your typical brown bear standing up. The typical shape for the tracks is also unmistakeably different.

European Encounters Of Chinese Sea Serpent In South East Asia

It was during the 1700s and 1800s during the days of the european colonisation as well as explorations and discovery that the early europeans came by sea route into south east asia and other parts of asia.

It was being frequently claimed by many Europeans of those days that Chinese Sea Serpents was being spotted in the South China Seas and Straits of Melacca.

The sea serpent is as common in oriental folklore as in its occidental counterparts. In China the legends merge into purely mythical accounts of sea dragons, which have the disconcerting talent of shape shifting, but the more credible tales seem to describe something very similar to the sea serpent, in China called the Kiao or Shan.

The Shan is the Eastern Sea Dragon that unlike the Kiao, who is a lake dweller, lives in the sea. The Shan is described as serpentine but with ears, horns and a red mane. Until recently the Malays and Chinese believed sea serpents were responsible for ambergris, which they call 'dragon spittle'. In the History of the Ming Dynasty, a Chinese author describes a place called Dragon Spittle Island in the Sea of Lambri

In the 19th century many oriental sea serpents were seen by Europeans. Some were shown to be frauds or hysterical exaggerations, but several accounts cannot be easily dismissed - though, as always, many witnesses regretted having gone public. The Straits Times Overland Joumal carried a lively correspondence on the matter. Particularly dramatic was the encounter in September 1876 between the SS Nestor and a 'sea serpent' in the Straits of Malacca which seemed rather different to most, though very Chinese.

There is in the Far East a well - known living 'dragon' species, named the Komodo Dragon because its primary (almost its only) habitat is Indonesia's Komodo Island. This giant monitor lizard usually grows to about 12ft (3.7m), but speeimens twice as long have been reported. The creatures migrate by sea between Komodo and three other Indonesian islands. Specimens washed out to sea may well have given rise to some sea - monster tales, but none of great importance.

Here Be Monsters

Once again, there's plenty oif news of monsters and weird beasts over at "THE ANOMALIST":

Russia: University Expedition to Find Siberian Yeti "ALL NEWS WEB". A dozen credible witnesses have reported seeing a Yeti or Bigfoot type Snowman in a mountainous area known as the Azzaskoy Caves in south-west Siberia. The sightings are being taken seriously enough for the University of Kemerovo to organise a full scientific expedition to finally confirm or deny their existence. But the story sounds fishy to Loren Coleman, who notes that there is no "University of Kemerovo" and asks Siberian Snowman: Hot Story or Hoax?

Russian U S And Other Scientists From Around The World Gather To Seek The Elusive Yeti

YETI/BIGFOOT AND UFOS. Like IS THE CONNECTION?

Idiom by SW/LITS.

Scientists from a edition of countries (Russia, the U.S., Canada, Sweden, Estonia, Mongolia and Chinaware), force conference this week (Thursday - Saturday), to commemorate the existence of the notorious creatures accepted as the Sasquatch.

From this conference, a team of scientist force be sent out to neat the Kemerovo and side Altai area, about 1,988 miles (3,200 kilometers) east of Moscow, in search of the shifty "ape-man".

The scientists force watch evidence of the existence of the creatures, such as confused branches, way of up to 14 inches (35 centimeters) and successive paramount poke huts. Register force any cover up each acoustic recordings and photographs and it is successive alleged by domestic risk wardens, that evidence was obtained by a motion-triggered camera in a low spot 50 miles from Tashtagol.

Little show had been a much smaller chase in September, this new chase force be the first of its hot seeing that 1958, seeing that scientists from the Soviet Seminary of Sciences searched Western Siberia, in an stake to suffer a Sasquatch.

Igor Burtsev, head of the Moscow-based Total Heart of Hominology, in recent times believed, "Equally Homo sapiens started populating the world, it roughly exterminated its adjacent relative in the hominid associates, Homo neanderthalensis. A number of of the Neanderthals, notwithstanding, may pass on survived to this day in assured mountainous forested habitats that are larger than or lower than off edge to their arch foes."

Give these scientists find non-negotiable proof of the existence of the Yeti? I trance them set, as it seems researchers give in our own substantiate yard can't gang to find proof of the existence of our own Bigfoot (relative of the Yeti?), or proof optimistic evidence of Space visits from obvious space.

If the scientists and researchers do find proof of Sasquatch, Bigfoot, aliens, or any of the recurrent other cryptids passable give on our own planet, how is that departure to difficulty our lives? Are they all associated in assured way? I'm consumed to incredulity... and so are recurrent others.
