Berawal dari menonton sebuah acara di salah satu televisi swasta, tentang Jejak – jejak misterius. Saya sangat penasaran dengan seekor hewan yang bernama Siamang Air, konon katanya hewan ini adalah primata yang hidup di dalam air. Setahu saya primata tidak ada yang hidup di dalam air.

Eksistensinya tidak jelas, bisa ada bisa tidak. contoh biar lebih ngerti : Nessie. Banyak saksi yang melihat penampakan Nessie, namun bukti…

Before being asked to leave the plantation by park rangers, over half a dozen villagers came to visit us to discuss their encounters with Orang Pendek or Orang Itam as they called them. Most of the reports were very recent which was excellent news, however I was also related two very fascinating stories that took place over forty years ago. The first event occurred on the plantation around 1973/74 when large 20-inch footprints were discovered. A few…

More commonly known today as Orang Mawas or the Johor Hominid,this creature is said to inhabit the lowland rain forests,or what’s left of them in the southern Malaysian states of Johor and Pahang. Virtually unknown to the outside world until stories of enormous tracks and jungle giants began trickling out of Orang Asli settlements in the late 1960s. It then made international headlines when writer and adventurer…

Several months ago I was finally able to get a hold of Professor Sykes’ latest book NATURE OF THE BEAST, in which the renowned human geneticist from Oxford documents his search for DNA evidence to support the existence of anomalous primates and relict hominds. Although the release date of the book was moved on at least two occasions, his conclusions regarding the Yeti hair samples remain unchanged: an archaic proto-polar bear inhabits both the western and eastern regions of the Himalayas. This controversial hypothesis and the lab work associated with it has been peer reviewed and challenged on…
