He even bumped into the couple searching for their dog but at the time had no clue, on till he got home and looked at his photo and saw the Devil Monkey standing between trees. It's crazy that the government just allow us to freely camp without any warning signs.

I never told anyone about a my sighting of a single footprint at the edge of a river and steep embankment. My brother and i dredged for gold deep in the mountains of Northern California years ago. We had many strange encounters we dont talk about them folks will think you're crazy ya know. But we have seen several Bigfoot through out the years and one thing that haunted us.... a single 3 towed footprint with claw print at the base of small drop off onto the sand or gravels of a river. We had been hearing strange noises at night thinking there was a wild hog in the area at first. But quickly realizing we were way to high up and the steep rocky area was just not possible. So we ruled that out. The large claws...... we then thought deformed bear. We looked around for other prints and couldnt find any. We didn't stick around long because we could tell it was only a few hours old at most. And it was in an extremely difficult place to access. We never told anyone. But I remember how troubled we were. The print was so clear and nothing else around it was disturbed.

[@tomyyang9174]

I like what you've done here @Hammerson Peters! There are more stories you should uncover from other countries about these beings. Hoping you can uncover some stories my Hmong people have experienced. These entities are not just monkeys, the Hmong people that lives in the mountains and hills have fought against these highly intelligent beings with supernatural abilities. In the jungles of Laos and Thailand where lots of Hmong people have reside in for many years. There are stories of hunters who have survived brutal attacks from these what you call devil monkeys. These beings are spiritual beings and very territorial. They are known to shape shift as a companion if that person has already been missing in the hunting party. Most hunters that survives these attacks and live to tell the tales are usually brave men who know of their existence and have prepare special silver or brass bullets that can harm them. Normal bullets will not harm them and they are smart enough to play dead, lure and bait their preys and even play with their food. In my culture only skillful shamans are truly prepared to deal with them in their physical form and their spiritual form. By spiritual form I speak of dreams.

@@chrisdooley6468 here is why there is no outcry, these parks are also home to these mythological creatures like the Bigfoot and other creatures. So to not scare the public they hide the evidence. Even the fish n game in Redding has a back room full of Bigfoot evidence. But good luck talking your way in to see it. And yep lots of things are starting to sort of come into view aren't they? I have been in the deep and steep back woods most of my life. Adventure was in my boots from a young age. I can tell you this those 'big guys' they are real. And i dont know if they are demons or real beings. Because they do have a power that can mess with your head. Could be a vibration they can emit. And i just heard him describe another anomaly my brother and i never told anyone about seeing. A 3 toed footprint with claws. That was very disturbing to see when you are way out there in the mountains and way down in a steep river canyon that one can only hike in to get to. There are a lot of strange creatures out in the mountains . Thats why I believe they close off areas to access. I saw hunters in Alaska that picked up mammoth tusks right of the surface of the ground! I saw their photos . And i once saw a very short video out of Siberia that showed a woolly mammoth cross a small river . Siberia is for the most part closed. 🤨🧐 could it be these places are closed to protect these strange creatures? I believe so!

Interesting, could also explain some of the skin walker stories toi from the descriptions at the very end of the video. Just because something is rare doesn't mean it is not there. Around 1978 my mother watched a cougar walking along the creek on our farm in Goshen Ohio. I made plaster casts of the large tracks. I hung around the area for well over 10 years at least when a friend called me asking about if I had some new pet. You see he would hunt on the farm and saw it in the late 1980's. Funny I asked him what he saw and he said a Big Damn Cat! Lol I said no it is wild. It is a cougar. He said What?!! And No! I said yeah, you remember those car commercials in Cincinnati, at the sign of the cat and he had a tame cougar in them. He said omg it's that same cat. Yep I said. I said but it's never been known to pay any attention to people or attack any live stock so we leave it alone. There is more than enough live game, rabbits, small deer etc etc to keep it well fed. But damn a few times a year you shoulda heard it's making call in the evening! Now that would send more than chills down your spine!

[@mgwgeneral6467]

I heard that sound up close one very dark night . It was in my yard before i had fences. When it finished its "meowing" it let out the roar it was so loud it hurt my ears! It was no more than 25 ft from me I figured. Scary! I fumbled my way into the house as quick as i could. But i would here them regularly when i would ride my dirt bike into the trees up on the mountains of the Humboldt range in northern Nevada. I would stay up there practicing my speaking skills watching the sun sets then ride back home. But them cats always let me know they knew i was there!

That one about the 2 creatures throwing snow on the fire sounds to me like 2 bigfoot that knew or at least believed the fire to be dangerous, that it might spread or it was terrifying their young. So they used infrasound on him so he couldn't use his gun. They certainly seemed to know what a gun was & left it for him when he woke up on a stump. If they meant him harm they could easily have killed him there and then. He was lucky to run into a more peaceful kind. The other types are extremely aggressive. I think alot of those things with tails and faces like a dog or baboon are possibly a type of dogman. Perhaps all of these things are able to interbreed and thats why u get so many strange varations of creature. I know alot of people will scoff at this but what if these things are the offsping of the fallen angels spoken about in the Bible & that's why they are able to interbreed because their DNA is different from any of the creatures that were created & intended by God to be here on the earth & these things are not. It also explains why they are so ellusive, you can never find a body and rarely get them on film.

[@mgwgeneral6467]

Interesting , i have seen the big guys several times. And they were curious. I felt the very mild version of that "sound vibration " as i think it could be. But at the same time i wondered if these weren't demons too. Almost seemed inter dimensional. But my brothers encounter was confirmed by his dogs reaction. A fearless killer of a pitbull. Who got up put his tail between his legs and went and jumped into the car in retreat! That dog feared NOTHING except blackbears. But this was no black bear . I was over 7' tall and on two feet.

Apparently it's fine if you shoot them but you are supposed to call the warden afterwards if you ever see one. Wardens words were something like "those little bastards ain't supposed to be here we want you to kill em on site, they're like hogs with thumbs and herpes". Not sure how correct he was about the herpes thing but apparently they are pretty good at pissing off farmers and wrecking stuff.

Back '88 I was in college, small town. In SE Okla.there are some large areas undeveloped. I know where I hunt the closest house is around 10 miles. Well there was a guy in our dorm that shot a monkey over Christmas break while squirrel hunting. We went to the library and could never find any monkey that matched his. I might add this is choctaw country and it was not a baboon

Let me guess,nobody thought to take any pictures of this mysterious monkey right?What a surprise!!!There is never any proof,or if there is,its a blurry mess.I will give an example,in the 80's i hunted and trapped alot ,something i am not proud of as i have grown older.I caught a red tail hawk in a foot trap baited with deer heart.Before releasing it,i took a polaroid.I still have the polaroid camera,as well as the photo.The point is,most hunters have some type of device to document what they harvest.Its just what alot of outdoorsman do,especially something as unusual as say a monkey in a tree in oklahoma,or a hawk caught in a foot trap.

i feel like we're missing something big concerning the ancient russo-alaskan land bridge. we keep discovering so much more and older signs of native american civilization than what is suggested by the current understanding of a short and tenuos ice passage between the continents. not to mention it wasn't understood until recently that despite ancient ice age conditions covering most of canada with glaciers there was a distinct unglaciated passage connecting Alaska though the yukon down to the lower 48 states and the rest of the Americas. also people like the inuit, middle American native tribes, and more than a few ancient meso/south american tribes talk of mysterious ancient people that predated them like the dorset people, the mound builders at poverty point, and the founders of cities like tiwanaku. having stomped around the prince william sound and the copper river valley many a time since i have family living on the coast there; during alot of spring and summer the area absolutely resembles the misty mountain valleys primatologists like dian fossey describe where they studied congo mountain gorillas.

Our Elders stand firm as they always have that we we placed here on Turtle Island. Literally born here. Not across an ice bridge, though some people may have migrated during this time. But not the Anishinaabek.

[@JozefLucifugeKorzeniowski]

@@Firstthunder i couldn't and wouldn't argue against that. the better our scientific methods of detecting the past get the stranger our picture of pre European america gets. we seem to have a pretty clear picture of what took place in europe and asia but it becomes confused and contradictory when we apply the same methods to the americas. current archaeology suggests humans that look like us with our capacity for intelligence have existed for at least 180,000 years. we only have written history to account for the last 10,000 of those years. so much could've happened that we'll never know about especially when we were only one of the 3 distinct human species living on the planet (the other 2 being the neanderthals and denisovans). i hope I'll live long enough to see some of these mysteries get unraveled.

Others are calling it Ancient Sun worshipper's pyramid builders which traveled wih reefboats on the currents to and from indo europe, african,asian regions, Heyerdahl were in on the idea but he passed before he could make more " tie more knots on the rope of history" about it.

@@JozefLucifugeKorzeniowski European leadership has purposefully hidden all the true history of the west. Columbus didn't discover North America. Because they were in South America 1500 years ago! How could they possibly miss it? Second Mongolian history and the tartars history goes way back. Mongolia has a written history that goes back 140,000 years. And there is another people group that has a history nearly double that. And during my travels in Asia i saw in their Buddhist temples large murals. All depicting wars with the "monkeymen" hideous looking men with tails. Mongolians being nomads. And look like all native Americans north and south so closely resemble these ancient people groups that I personally wouldn't doubt that they are all descendants of the Mongolian people! Even in Genesis the first bit where it says God says "let US make man in OUR own image. This was the creation of ancient peoples. Then it goes on to say that "God all by himself formed Adam out of the dust of the earth. " thus creating a breed of men and making him a living soul. Gave him a job to do to. The serpent in the garden that tempted Eve? A simple way to hide adult content in a family reading. Another man tempted her and she gave birth to Cain. A corrupted seed. Not pure. Adam and Eve only go back about 13,000 years. When I visited a Canadian costal village of Bella Coola i spoke with the natives and asked them what that nam meant? They said about 10,000 years ago the waters of the ocean rose up and the people anchored their canoes to the tops of the mountains and then they broke loose! The flood of Noah.the name Bella Coola means , place of broken Anchorage. The mountains there are like 6,000 ft high at least if not more.

Could easily have been a species of mountain baboon adapted to the area. A species we have no idea existed because they didn't get lucky and leave behind a fossil or other record. There are probably millions of animals and maybe even societies that developed, flourished, then passed away without any member of the group having a death that was conducive to fossil formation. Fossil formation is a rare thing, even harder than rolling a natural 20.

Not the first time folklore/myths from totally separate cultures from other parts of the globe seem to describe the same/similar being or event, the more you study them the more common ground you find between them.

Makes sense, seeing as "smoke them out their den and clubber them over the head once they leave their safe home" is one of the oldest hunting techniques of humankind. It just works so well, that undoubtedly every human culture on earth that had prey/predators living underground or in caves did this at some point or another,

[@andreag.4609]

Yes, but the similarity, was not just the way they dispatched them but was, that they where killing another group of “wild cousins” of the jungle. Some sort of unknown hominids.

Teddy Roosevelt wrote about seeing a good number of them Skunk Apes as they were known in those days. The legendary Bigfoot as many of us call em. There is a county document i think in Jamestown. California where a mine worker shot and killed a Bigfoot. Later their mess hall came under attack with all the 30 or so workers inside! The document said the creatures threw huge rocks like 20-40 pounds into the roof of the building. The men were fearful for their lives and that week the mine closed down! By reason of Bigfoot attack. Bigfoot are like an unsocial breed of men. They don't play well with others. Some are ok while others are ... well... wild animals.
