As for me...I would have to agree with your grandma. As for me it was all the adults in my family. Telling all of us kids to never look out the window at night. We wasnt allowed by the creek after the sun starts to set. No playing hide and seek or dead man or any of those stupid games at night. Or in the dark. No riding horses at night. No whistling at night. Hell we wasnt even suppose to be alone outside at night. The list is endless. And us being young and dumb we had to find out why. We got spooked more than once. Or was bothered by something. Im 21. I was 20 when you posted that and the only rule I dont follow is riding horseback alone. I go every where including the mountains. I try to be at my destination before sunset unless of course im in town. Then I would stay in the light. This past winter when I went logging bymyself and got stuck, had to have my friend come get me. But he didnt wanna chance it so he parked about a mile or 2 away(funny thing I was in a cute 2.9 ford ranger, that truck was a bastard truck that took me almost anywhere and everywhere especially when it has a load) so I started walking. He did the same and met me halfway. Glad I have bad eyesight and a bright ass flashlight and my 357. , because when he got like 40 ft away from me he had me shine my light towards the trees he was walking by. And he seen a tall lanky hairless creature. So he hauled ass towards me screamin ho shit ho shit.( before that when we still had a miles worth of distance between us we was talkin on the cell phones trying to figure out where eachother was at. So I could direct him towards me, we both kept hearing something cracking around in the trees. like if we was be followed, and since my fear of what goes bump in the night had my flashlight over my head, my flash light is the kind where the bottom half is a rechargeble light with a magnet and the top half requires triple A. And detaches to become a headlamp.

All of those scripted so-called paranormal themed "reality" shows are pure rubbish! Absolute garbage! If there was a TV show that played out exactly how a true paranormal (haunting) investigation was conducted no one would watch it. Why? Because true paranormal investigators rarely collect any substantial evidence while they patiently wait for something to occur in blackened rooms. Imagine sitting in a pitch black room of a purportedly haunted dwelling for five hours trying to collect some data to validate a haunting. And you end up with nothing. The crap you see on TV with those bozo wanna-be ghostbusters are just play acting. The only ghost/haunting related TV show that has a nickel's worth of value is "A Haunting" on Discovery. Yes the stories are over dramatized, but they are based on eyewitness testimonials and presented in a documentary format. But you take it for what it's worth. Partly truth, partly fiction. That's the un-glamor of showbiz.

If you ask a biologist/ecologist what a minimum, healthy breeding population is, they will likely say something like "2,000 randomly breeding individuals". HOWEVER, what they mean by that is that that is the minimum needed to avoid "genetic drift" (i.e., the expression of potentially unhealthy genetic recessives from inbreeding). Others may say "200 potential breeders per X square miles", but that is meant to reflect the practical necessity of actually finding a mate. If your normal hunting range (such as for a wolf or cougar) is 150 mile radius, well, then, you're gonna need a certain number of female wolves visiting that area if you ever wanna get a date. As a practical matter, however, the ONLY "breeding population" needed is one male and one female. Granted, they would have to have some way of contacting each other (solved if they form a mating pair) and they would risk "genetic drift" (which may account for the variant descriptions and natures of the various "apeman" types - they actually ARE diverging, physically, due to "genetic drift", which is why a Yeti print doesn't look the same as a Pac NW Sasquatch print). So, you don't actually require any "large breeding population", at least as most people understand the issue. You just need a fertile breeding pair.*<br /><br />No skeletons? Good point - but I watched a time lapse sequence on how quickly a dead deer would become unrecognizable, due to natural predation and deterioration. The answer? One week. By then, other animals, insects, bacteria, etc., had so stripped and disassembled and scattered the carcass that you'd never find it. Add the possibility that these creatures bury - or at least hide (even eat) - their dead and it becomes entirely possible that we would not find any carcasses.<br /><br />Finally, suggesting that, if they lived anywhere near a populated area, they'd have been seen kinda begs the question. The very reason for this blog is that so many people claim that they HAVE seen them. Here's a thought: About 10 years ago, not 30 miles from where I live, they found a large and ancient grove of Douglas Fir trees. We're talking trees over 250' tall and 16' in diameter, yet, despite logging roads and logging activity all around the area, these giants remained totally unknown and unsuspected for almost two centuries - and trees don't generally actively hide. So, if a bunch of big trees can escape our detection, how much easier would it be for a couple 8' tall apes?<br /><br />I believe that some kind of giant man-ape is possible, perhaps even plausible. Before I believe that they actually exist, however, I'll need real proof. Denying their existence based on the kind of circumstantial evidence you cite, however, is no more dispositive of the issue than my claiming that they must exist because I can hear "wood knocks" outside my tent.<br /><br />* One of the theories regarding the "Loch Ness Monster" is that it is actually a gigantic form of prehistoric, marine slug - a "tullimonstrum gregarium". Slugs, of course, are hermaphroditic, so, technically, a "large breeding population" for a "Tullimonstrum Loch Ness Monster" could be just one. Biology is fascinating, but prone to oversimplification by the uninitiated.<br /><br /><br /><br />Could theyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5458512267462023538.post-45373098879573878312014-07-19T09:20:37.415-07:002014-07-19T09:20:37.415-07:00Sheesh, why the vitriol, "real hunter"? ...Sheesh, why the vitriol, "real hunter"?

Now, let me tell you why I'm so intrigued by that particular episode. Prior to my military service, I hunted - chiefly coyotes and feral dogs (both menaces to our stock). I'm familiar with them. I'm also aware that, with the departure of the wolf populations, coyotes have moved into their niche and have gotten notably larger and, moreover, there is such a thing as "hybrid gigantism" (for instance, when wild dogs interbreed with wolves and/or coyotes - "Ligers" are a classic example of this phenomenon). However, the "pump house beast" was considerably larger than any wolf, coyote, wild dog, or hybrid thereof. It does, however, comport almost exactly with certain species of Hyaenodons - in fact, I actually forwarded, to AIMS, a picture of a Hyaenodon skeleton/fossil (next to a person, for scale) which almost exactly matches the size of the animal shown in the pump house film. It also almost exactly matches the shape - at least so far as it can be discerned in the film. What "grabbed" me, however, is not immediately apparent from looking at the Hyaenodon skeleton (at least not without training in comparative anatomy). What "grabbed" me was the articulation of the limbs apparent on the "pump house beast" as it walked by - particularly the movement of the shoulder/hip and ankle/wrist joints, which are rather different than what one sees on any canine or canine hybrid. It is SO distinctive that it absolutely slapped me upside the head when I saw it in the film (would that I had a copy I could scroll through frame by frame). BTW, it would also explain the peculiar attack method seen in the scars left on that one, particular calf (an attack which is NOT consistent with any known canid or likely felid attack methodology). Everything else about the animal they were ostensibly chasing is, likely, consistent with what we know and/or can surmise about Hyaenodons. Or, as I said, above, it was like suddenly looking 23 Million years into the past when I watched that clip. It really was that vivid and that compelling.<br /><br />Is it possible that they faked me out? Absolutely, but I just don't believe that anyone could have/would have gone to the trouble to fake a limb articulation/motion that maybe 1 out of every 100,000 people would even notice.<br /><br />I don't know what is in Pike County. I do know that I now believe that there IS something in Pike County that probably should not be there. All the rest of "Mountain Monsters" can be as fake as a hooker's modesty and I will still want to go to Pike County and find that thing. If it is living on your property, well, then, I would love an invitation. Thanks again. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
