Bigfoot and thumb mobility

This could be a non-human ape thumb according to Dr. Meldrum

At the Bigfoot conference in Orlando, I saw on display Dr. Meldrum's footprint and knuckle cast. The Knuckle cast may be important for it shows a wide mobility of the thumb greater then wood apes. I found this on an interesting blog about zoology:

Paranthropus had a slightly larger brain to body ratio than chimpanzees, so it likely would match the intelligence reported in wood apes (although other nonhuman apes are certainly intelligent). Also, the known tool use for Paranthropus are simple digging sticks, which means that it likely employed very little tool use. One issue for the Paranthropus hypothesis is that hand skeletons which have been attributed to these robust hominins indicate greater thumb mobility than what is shown in alleged wood ape hand and knuckle prints. However, remains of Homo have also been found at this fossil site and the hand skeletons, along with the evidence of fire use and stone tools which have been found there, likely belong to them rather than to Paranthropus. ..Bizarre Zoology

Strange skull found in Florida swamps

Kevin found this skull while we were forging our way to the wild river. I have done Google searches on every type of skull for animals and common birds we have seen in the swamp. Nothing close. The alligator does not even match. It must belong to something that has horns? Kevin has been hiking the Green Swamp for twenty years and he has no idea what this may be. At this point, it is a cryptid of some sort.

We had gone to Trail Cam number two earlier and it had 95 images on it. You can see some of those images on this blog and on my YouTube site. Good things are happening. When you are a dedicated hoaxer, you must work very hard and put in the miles and the time to 'hoax' these things. We are trying so hard on that.

A Bigfoot Jaw Bone found in 1935 may contain the answer

A Bigfoot Jaw Bone?

They say we have no Bigfoot body or DNA. But do we? On display in a museum in San Diego is a very large jaw bone that belongs to an Ice Age primate that was up to ten feet tall and 1,000 lbs, known as Gigantopithecus and he was big man.

The working theory is that this creature may have migrated to North America from Asia. They are still believed to be plentiful int he deep, remote regions of the Pacific and Canada North West. Numerous sightings over the centuries have confirmed that something is living out in the remote areas.

There are now more sightings east of the Mississippi then in the West, showing, perhaps, migratory patterns are continuing with a warming earth. Reports from the swamp areas near the Gulf of Mexico detail a beast that is smaller and with longer hair, believed to evolutionary adaptations to environment.

The jaw bone in the image above should be DNA tested (if there is any) with samples from the Erickson Project for comparison. If not this one, others. That would introduce a more scientific aspect to the project and get the attention of mainstream science.

If it matches, you could say there is a body. At least a jaw bone.

"Some diehard Sasquatchers speculate that Bigfoot may actually be Gigantopithecus, the largest primate to have ever walked the Earth. 

Discovered by renowned paleontologist Gustav von Koenigswald, Gigantopithecus was thought to have evolved during the Pleistocene Era, and lived throughout Southeast Asia 

Fossils led scientists to believe that the creature stood close to 10 feet tall and weighed a whopping 1,200 pounds. Thought to have gone extinct due to severe climate change, ape-man advocates say Giganopithecus may be alive and well, and hiding in remote regions of the world, like the Himalayas, Siberia, the swamps in the southeastern United States and the Pacific Northwest."
'via Blog this'

There is no evidence science will except unless it can be measured and tested. The spoor of footprints and howls in the night are just not going to get it. They do, however, allow Bigfoot researchers to know they are getting close, and to continue on the quest.

Monkey Business In Our Family Tree

"Despite more than a century of digging,the fossil record remains maddeningly sparse. With so few clues, even a single bone that doesn't fit into the picture can upset everything. VIRTUALLY EVERY MAJOR DISCOVERY has put deep cracks in the conventional wisdom and has forced scientists to CONCOCT new theories amid furious debate."  TIME May 1994

For the last Century scientist have been searching for relics of ancient man, and the missing link. As Time pointed out, each new discovery would force scientist to re-evaluate the previous theory, and almost overturn the former theory. Is this just guesswork by researchers wanting badly to prove the theory of evolution and how it applied to the assent of man? There are modern scientist that are starting to question all of this stuff.

Modern research is showing that there never was a half-man, half-ape creature. There is more evidence for Bigfoot then there is for the supposed predecessors of modern man. How would debunking scientist advace Bigfoot research? Simple, it would show that man is older, much older then what scientist want to admit. Man is so unlike anything on this planet, he might not be from here. I do not advance those theories, only that we are just beginning to understand our origins and the history of Earth. Bigfoot many be more advanced then we are hence his ability to remain unknown. Found no bones of Bigfoot? It doesn't seem they have found bones of anything else.

PILTDOWN MAN: Found in 1912 by Charles Dawson who was an amature anthropologist. He had actually perpetrated a hoax and got the scientific community to buy it. The hoax remained intact until 1953. History books had to be changed after the hoax was discovered. 

NEBRASKA MAN: This was a sort of scientific blunder. In 1917 Harold Cook found a tooth and scientist reconstructed an ancient form of man. Scientist in London agreed. It was later shown to be a wild pig tooth...OOPS!

Homo Erectus  is said to be our ancestor from 2.6 million years ago, yet his skeleton is in every way identical to ours. In fact, give him some tattoos and a  leather  jacket and he would walk the streets unnoticed. 

By far the most famous of all the cave men was Neanderthal Man. It is now known that the peculiar appearance of the Neanderthals was the result of extreme old age and rickets, as well as, arthritis.  

Lucy  (Australopithecus Afarensis) discovered by Dr. Leaky is generally agreed upon as being a pygmy chimp rather than a missing link. The main evidence presented to show that Lucy was almost human were some perfect human footprints found nearby (secondary evidence used in Bigfoot research). If you will notice the illustration,  the skeleton has no feet! Could it be that a human made those footprints?

Piltdown Man And The Erickson Project

Piltdown Man Press Conference

In 1912 Charles Dawson held a press conference in London with an important announcement. He had discovered during a dig in the Piltdown region of England a fossil of an ancient skull. Dawson believed this skull was a bridge between Neanderthal and modern man, the missing link. The best part of all of this was the fossil was English!

Java man and Neanderthal had been discovered in the middle of the nineteenth century and scientist needed a bridge. Dawson was going to deliver with this important discovery. He and his workers had been digging for months over the last year and found several parts of a skull and a jaw bone. The skull was able to house a very large brain and the jaw was more monkey like too chew vegetation and meat. The scientific world was excited about this find. They had, however, failed to notice or critique some obvious things. In short, scientific method was played with fast and loose.

Dawson had been working on his own and the only scientific controls of his dig were the ones he would impose. Since his crew was working alone, they could do whatever they wanted. That would include fudge data, time lines, and offer no accounting for the procurement of samples and under what conditions these samples had been found. Much less, any possibility of experimentation or repeatability of results.

Piltdown Skull

What Dawson had done was put together an orangutan jaw bone with a modern human skull. He exposed all sample's to acid and dye to make them appear to be very old. The part of the skull that connects to the vertebrae was the orangutan. Scientist bought his hoax hook line and sinker. The reason? They were just as eager as him to believe and prove man evolved from apes.

If you go to a bookstore that has old books that predate 1953, you will find books that show the evolutionary path of man and apes with the Piltdown man being the most significant of the lineages. For decades this was taught in schools and nobody had a clue. The very people who should of questioned this, did not.

The Piltdown Man fossil was rarely taken out of its case and nobody was allowed to examine it. They only had access to replications. Scientist never got to handle the original. How could these scientist of not questioned that? Simple, they wanted to believe. That is what I fear is going on in Bigfoot research today mainly in the form of the Erickson Project with Dr. Melba Ketchum.

This is Piltdown Man

Nobody has seen the samples that are being DNA tested. Nobody knows where these samples are being tested, and nobody can examine any of this important work. We are just told that one day all of this will come out. The conditions under which any of this 'evidence' was gathered in the field is suspect at best. You only have to just take their word for it like in the Piltdown Man.

I don't mean to be so skeptical, but none of this is even close to being the way science should advance. There is a large amount of money to be made and we all know what happens when money can change hands. University research this is not. Lets not let this junk science fool a lot of people

Examining The Fossil Find In Bone Valley Florida

I went to the area near Bone Valley to look for all things Cryptozoic. The Beast Hunter Pat Spain has inspired me to look for more in Florida then just the skunk ape. The reason is there is just so much more in Florida. They have found giant sturgeon, fish that walk on legs, giant crocodiles, lake monsters, sea serpents, and many things that just belong in this State.

Examining A Fossil Find

This was not a rock. It was once part of a very living organism from eons ago. You can see that it has a hollow chamber that once housed something. This area could be a gold mine. 

I went further into the swamp area behind me and discovered a fast moving body of water that was dry only a few days ago. The hawk seemed upset, I guess because all his mice were hard to find.

The Water World Behind Me

The water was only getting deeper

Return To The Burial Mound - A Year Later

I found a large mound near a jungle river in Central Florida in April of 2009. I went out to it several times and actually dug up part of it to see if I could find some biological evidence. The was an exciting find for me at the time.

What I found was an old, petrified wooden floor that perhaps had been there for at least a century. I believe it was from early homesteaders that built their camp near the river I was eventually making my way out to.

Today I returned to the spot to see what it looked like after one year. I was hoping there would be some evidence that the skunkape had messed with it somehow, and maybe filled in what I had dug up, since I may have desecrated a burial site. No such luck.

It looked like I had left it. Leaves had filled in the hole I had left. No bigfoot. I did try.

Ardipithecus Ramidus...A Hoax?

Fossil Skeleton From Africa Predates Lucy New York Times

Lucy's not your mama anymore. Ardi is. Lucy turns out to be more than a million years too young. That's right, the newest fossil skeleton out of Africa to take the title of "the earliest known skeleton from the human branch of the primate family tree," is Ardipithecus ramidus. Its fossil remains, a fairly complete skeleton presented by scientists on Thursday, are thought to be 4.4 million years old. Worlds Before Our Own, indeed! This whole thing is suspect.
This is the critical part of the article:

"Ardi, short for Ardipithecus ramidus, is the newest fossil skeleton out of
Africa to take its place in the gallery of human origins. At an age of 4.4
million years, it lived well before and was much more primitive than the
famous 3.2-million-year-old Lucy, of the species Australopithecus afarensis."

Dr. Esteban Sarmiento commented on this on the MNBRT Radio show Sunday night. He said science is now all about research dollars. It is now a competition to outdo your opponent. That is why scientist are under pressure to find the "OLDEST" fossil because it drives research money. The scientist that found this fossil would never claim that it was just a descendant of a chimp. They have to now fudge their study to show that it may be a human. They, of course, cannot prove this. The genetic split between ape and humans happened 3 million years ago. The genetic and DNA lab test conclude this. To claim otherwise is a misrepresentation of facts, and entering into the area of a hoax. Bad science. Bad science.
I have a link to the interview below.

This sort of thing, I believe, is going on in the "GLOBAL WARMING" scam.
