Cryptozoology

[Guest Biblicist]

I believe in Bigfoot, though not the way some people describe or portray him. I believe that the bones that they have found, the ones they call the "missing link," are actually Bigfoot bones. Call me crazy, but it's more plausable than man evolving from Apes, isn't it? American Indians are not the only people with legends of a large harry mountain man/creature. There are legends from every continent on the globe.

I believe in Nessy. I believe that Nessy is one of the ancient aqua dinosaurs caught in that lake durring the flood. A Plesiosaurus. Or a descendant of said creature.

The possibilities of both of those existing are hard to ignore. I am a big fan of Bigfoot. My most favorite fiction story is Monster by Frank Paretti. I check out BFRO quite frequently. There were sitings near my home, only 20 short years ago. In my lifetime!

OK I sound like I am trying to convince you of the existance of Bigfoot and Nessy! Sorry.

The other two. Not so sure! What is a bunyip?

Bunyip

Although no documented physical evidence of bunyips has been found, it has been suggested by cryptozoologists that tales of bunyips could be Aboriginal memories of the Diprotodon, or other extinct Australian megafauna which became extinct some 50,000 years ago.

Amazing that legends of these animals are connected with dinosaurs. According to some people dinosaurs didn't exist with humans.

Nobody has mentioned the infamous Batboy or the flying rods.

There is a lake in british Columbia that has a monster called Ogopogo.

I'm not good at links but try this article. There is a picture of a chupacabras. Unless the photo is altered it looks like something OTHER than anything else I can think of. Whatever it is....I don't want to meet it in person.

Cryptozoologists dont say these things definitely exist. They say there is a large body of folklore about them so it is worth doing serious investigation to see IF they really exist. They encourage investigation to see if they exist, or if they do not exist. Consider them the mythbusters of zoology and folklore lol.

The International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature expects that more than 20,000 species will be described by zoologists in 2005.

This year's discoveries include four species of lemurs from the island of Madagascar, a monkey from Tanzania, an odd-ball rodent from Vietnam, a parasitic

Well,

Don't know to much about cryptozoologists and such but:

Bigfoot -yeah I seen him he was my Dad size 14 EEEE really big foot especially when he was mad!

Nessy -that was my Aunt from across the street

Bunyips -ain't that the sound some make when you pinch someone on the bottom?

chupacabra- thats what Momma used to say when we was running low on sugar or flour get a cup out of the cabinet and go across the street and borrow some from your Aunt Nessy.
