    Modern primatologists believe that New World monkeys never settled further north than the jungles of Mexico - a notion contradicted by ancient Native legends, fossil evidence, and modern sightings which seem to indicate that some sort of predatory primate haunts the wilderness of North America.

    Gotta point out the obvious. Hammerson most definitely, at least in my opinion, takes the podium here on the Tube when it comes to American/Canadian Early mythologies and traditional beliefs. The Depth of research and incredible attention to detail is almost too much to absorb. No other researchers present knowledge with such detail. Just a wealth of knowledge.

    I'm from southern VA. Grew up and lived there most of my life. When I was 2 years old, I was in my car seat in my mother's vehicle while she stood nearby in my grandma's driveway talking to her. She says that all of a sudden, the car rolled backwards into a ditch. She immediately assumed I released the parking brake but when she asked me what happened, I told her a monkey had crawled into the car and released the brake. Gives me chills now after hearing these stories...

There's just no bummers in his work. I'm ridiculously picky about Western era, Fur Trade, and cryptid topics. Who else even does this ? Come to think of it. makes my head hurt to know how much research and focus it takes to accomplish this. Gratitude and respect sir.

      When i was in Asia i saw many temples that had huge murals on all the corridors depicting monkeymen at war with the population. All over i saw the painted murals depicting war scenes! Hideous looking men with tails at war with asian men. I even saw one or two monkeymen that had swords on their sides! But the regular men were all armed. In vietnam there were reports of men with tails throwing rocks at the marines in one location. So i dont doubt at all about the existence of such creatures. They apear to be well documented in other countries.

    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.

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.

    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.

    I've seen a snow monkey while hunting in west Texas, called the game warden and they were super nice and sent folks out to look into it. Never found the monkey but they told me about the sanctuary at Dilly which was about 50 miles down the road from where I was. 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.

    Not a Canadian story but one that might have a Canadian connection.
    In 1954, my mother (10 years before my birth) was the last person known to have seen the "waitoreke", the elusive otter-like creature, reported as inhabiting the waterways in Southland, New Zealand, at the southernmost part of the South Island.
    She saw it while fishing under the Clifden Bridge, on the Waiau River, about 10 kilometres north of the small logging town of Tuatapere. It swam from the northern river bank, across to the Tuatapere side of the river. She said it was not a dog, cat, rat or any other animal she had seen before. It was as big as a large cat, its fur was sleek and it swam on its back with it's paws resting on its belly.
    The problem is that New Zealand is not supposed to have otters. We are only supposed to have three native land mammals, stranded in New Zealand when it split from Australia many, many millions of years ago: a native bat, and two types of seals. ALL other mammals were brought to New Zealand by humans.
    So where did this animal, seen by early European explorers in the mid-19th Century, and described to them by the native Maori, come from?
    Gavin MacKenzie in his book "1420: the Year China Discovered the World" suggested the otters came from a Chinese exploration fleet that either carried otters from Asia or picked them up from the the nortwestern American coast.
    Personally, I think it more likely that otters escaped, or were released from, American or British sealing or whaling ships that came to New Zealand, in the 1790s.
    Less than 80 kilometres from Clifden, at the mouth of the Aparima River, further east along the Southland coast, is the former whaling station of Riverton, founded in 1830, the first European settlement in the South Island, but visited since the 1790s.
    Sealers were dropped off around the nearby Fiordland and southern coasts to hunt seals, especially fur seals, for their hides. In some cases, the sealers were stranded in their camps for years at a time, killing and skinning thousands of seals until rescued by returning, or other, sealing or whaling ships. In fact, in the fiords of Fiordland (the south western part of the South Island), it is still possible to find mossy stockpiles of sealskins that were stashed in coastal caves 220 years ago.

      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.

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.
