Well guys ....you know where I am on the side of this...they are out there! Period!
And I for one intend to see one again, and help others to relize that there is more than just someone might read in a book. By issueing the challenge to those who say that they can't exsist to go out and research for yourself and you might have a very large hairy surprise waiting for ya....I will Be leaveing for the mountains of Eastern Oklahoma Thursady for a big research operation...hope to see you guys there, and get a chance to talk about my web cast show " The Legend Seekers"

I seen one when I was a child.. I would like to pose the possiblity that they might be a Spirit. Even though people including myself seen them as coporial. This is a intresting site http://www.christianforums.com/t7260884/
it has said they believe it to be demonic.

The Choctaw Indians believe(or at least theres one legend that holds) that they are indeed spirits. Or at least shape-shifters. They believe that they can take on the form anything they need to in order to mete out justice, or help their people in some way. This also holds true of werewolves...they call them 'Skin-Walkers'...again, able to shape shift to whatever is needed at hand.

there is certainly cause to believe in a bigfoot like creature evolution can be a cruel mistress ...or it can be a kind one. I would certainly think there are creatures out there we have not found

hello have you ever seen a musseum full of dinosaur bones...skeptics of mass animals crack me up...I am a firm believer the depths of the ocean hold a store house of mysteries and creatures even hollywod could marvel at!

agreed...I mean, who would have ever thought something like a dinosaur COULD exist...if we didnt have the proof? I always like to point out GERMS...

If you had told someone in 1905 that there were ivisible, microscopic LIVING organisms everywhere, including their own BODY...they would have called you crazy.

Its the same kind of thing...just cause you cant see it... YET, doesnt mean it doesnt exist.

I just watched something on Monster Quest about The Skunk Ape. Of course, there is a longer and more un-pronouncable name for it, but in and around Florida (especially the swaplands) it is called The Skunk Ape. Description seem to run alongside Bigfoot in many way, and someone (allegedly) photographed the creature, it resembled an oragutan (sp). Even the "scent" seemed similar to what is described in bigfoot sightings and encounters. Maybe the same creature?

And I do agree with Adrienne's post! If we are discovering species that existed millions of years ago and escaped the evolution process, could it be that these creature also escaped the evolution process?

Gotta say, Justin, since "meeting" you guys, this has interested me more and more....

It is a VERY interesting field...especially when you start researching and find these stories about Giant Squids being caught, and 4,000 new, NEVER BEFORE KNOWN or documented species being found in a two square mile perimeter in the South American rain forest...etc.

Another, great one, the Duckbill Platypus. When the first reports started coming back from Australia, the European Biologist thought it was a hoax...
