Description: Lloyd Pye is an author, researcher, and lecturer in the file of alternative Knowledge. He calls on over 30 years of experience to write and speak about the origins of life, human origins, Hominoids (bigfoot, sasquatch, yeti, and others), and the work of Zecharia Sitchin, author of The 12th Planet.

This broad base of knowledge makes him one of the world's leading proponents of the Intervention Theory of origins, which stands in sharp contrast to Darwinism, Creationism, and Intelligent Design

After reading and hearing it on many sources, I feel safe in saying, the Georgia bigfoot is a hoax. The bigfoot in the freezer matches the work of a costume maker. The costume maker was interviewed, and he said the Georgia bigfoot in the freezer was his work. I was telling someone the other day, that it reminded me of an ape costume from a movie made in the 1980's.

The sketch of the eyes featured on the johorhominid.org website is said to have been based on a clear photograph of a female hominid in Johor’s jungles.

The website also claims that the sclera (the white of the eye) surrounding the iris, which is meant for enhancing gaze signal in communication, showed that the creature had some kind of basic language.

One of the website founders, Sean Ang, said a morphological analysis of the eyes showed that the creature closely resembled homo sapiens (humans) than the Pan troglodytes (chimpanzees).

The Peninsular Malaysia houses some of the world's oldest rainforests. Older than either the Amazon or the Congo, some remained undisturbed for 130 million years. Housing the chirping drongos, hornbills and argus pheasant; the forest is also home to butterflies and fruit piercing moths and of course the Nannophya Pygmea, the smallest dragon fly in the world. Within this context, the remnants of our prehistoric human ancestors were found alive and kicking.

We shared a common ancestor with chimpanzees and gorillas as recently as four to seven million years ago. They have about 95 to 99 percent of their DNA similar with humans. It has been proposed that troglodytes and paniscus belong with sapiens in the genus Homo, rather than in Pan. Given this context, we theorized that the Johor hominid is even closer related to humans compared with Pan. They walk upright, their facial morphology resembles sapiens and their hand structure is very similar to human which is an indication for tool manipulation. Let us be ready to welcome the new family member.

The following story is about the research who last summer was involved in a bigfoot pay per view hoax.

Doubts about photo fail to discourage California crew

When professional Bigfoot hunters showed up to Hans Mobius' Clarence farm Friday, they immediately found clues they said gave the recent sighting credibility.

"Something very large had bedded itself for the night," said Tom Biscardi, chief executive officer of Searching for Bigfoot Inc., as he pointed to a trampled part of a thicket on the Mobius farm.

"It's too big to be a deer, and look at the space above it," he said, gesturing to a gap in the thicket canopy.

"You think there's room for something big to stand up there?"

Biscardi and his crew drove directly to Clarence from Menlo Park, Calif., when they learned about the Mobius sighting.

YES, the Johor Government wants to get to the bottom of the Bigfoot mystery. Bigfoot has managed to evade capture and has instead captured headlines. So far, all evidence of Bigfoot’s existence has been unpersuasive.

The Bigfoot mania is not new. Humanoid ape-like creatures have been sighted for centuries in many parts of the world. In the forests of North America, there have been sightings of Skunk Ape, Momo, Grassman and Woods Devil.

One of the earliest sightings of the footprints was in 1811 by a Canadian trader in Alberta. By the 1950s, the sightings were said to be almost regular. There are also similar tales of mythical giant apes in the oral traditions of Europe.

In Asia, there is the Abominable Snowman, or the Yeti, in the Himalayas; and Australia, the Yowie Man. Could Bigfoot or Hantu Jarang Gigi (snaggle toothed ghost) be the Malaysian version?

While the National Geographic (Oct 23, 2003) reported that thousands of people claim to have seen the hairy hominoid, the evidence of its existence remains fuzzy.

Sometimes in this world there are certain things we just can't explain.

Ghost sightings, the loch ness monster, and what about big foot? Well, bigfoot, that's one we may be able to help you with. Did you know there have been over fifty bigfoot sightings in Georgia?

In Coweta County, the site of the most recent sightings in Georgia, we spoke with locals as well as a bigfoot researcher to find out if bigfoot really is living among us.

This video put bigfoot on the map. The 1967 video filmed by Roger Patterson in California brought the mythical beast to life. Believe it or not, just one year ago something similar was seen here...on Happy Valley Circle near Newnan, Georgia.

"We ran an article in the newspaper, saying man sees something do you know what it is." said Alex McRae, Times-Herald reporter.

Alex McRae is a columnist for the Newnan Times-Herald. He's written three stories about these sightings...a large hairy person walking upright. He doesn't doubt the eyewitness reports.

"These are reliable people. They're hard working, honest people with no reason to make these things up ad these incidents we're talking about happening months apart so it's not like someone said I just heard this let's get in on the action. " said McRae.

Eddie Ball now runs coweta county Emergency Management. He says it's been almost thirty years since he first heard about big foot. But it wasn't called bigfoot when worked as a deputy sheriff in the early seventies.

"They were interviewing me there at the sheriff's office and wanted to know about it and I said I don't know what it is. I had never personally seen it but I'm getting tired of chasing boogers on Belt Road all the time. Somehow it became the name of the thing the Belt Road Booger" said Ball.

MUAR: Menteri Besar Datuk Abdul Ghani Othman wants to get to the bottom of the Bigfoot mystery. The Government, he said, would like to verify the Bigfoot tales.

He said the State Government’s Bigfoot Steering Committee was collating media reports, eyewitness accounts and evidence of their existence.

"Although the committee was set up in February, the State Government will only launch a search expedition when we have concrete evidence of the existence of Bigfoot," Ghani said after opening the RM2.6 million new building of Sekolah Menengah Pei Hwa, Sungai Mati yesterday.

He said he was aware that Bigfoot had aroused global interest and this made it necessary to do a careful, comprehensive and orderly scientific study of the phenomenon.

Meanwhile, Russian hominologists have turned their attention to Malaysia, hoping for a breakthrough in unravelling the mystery.

Dmitri Bayanov of the International Centre of Hominology in Moscow in an Internet posting, congratulated Malaysian Bigfoot researchers, saying: "The priority for researchers should be to obtain photographic evidence and describe in writing their observations and experiences.

JOHOR BAHARU, May 13 (Bernama) -- Two books containing colour pictures of "Bigfoot" or Orang Lenggor and written by separate groups will be published in a few months in an attempt to prove the existence of the creature which has created worldwide interest.

Biodiversity expert Vincent Chow, who is writing one of the books with two others, said their book would answer questions about the elusive creature.

"It resembles a pre-historic human, not ape," he told Bernama on Friday.

"The body is covered by a layer of long hair except on the face, which is bare. It has a fierce-looking face, big body and walks with a hunch. It resembles a sturdy man," he added.

He said the book would shake the scientific world and the thinking of conventional scientists.

Chow said that from the pictures he had seen, the creature had probably lived in solitude for thousands of years without being detected.

When asked where and when the pictures were taken, he said he did not know but he was sure they were taken in a Johor forest.

He said the owner of the pictures was an elderly man who refused to reveal his identity and had left for Thailand recently to escape from possible harassment.

"From what we know, he is a former communist guerilla who spent a long time in the jungle," he said.

JACOBSVILLE — Just before Lisa Shiel left her Jacobsville home for a morning walk last Friday, she gathered a small, handful of twigs and placed them in a pile beside her driveway gate. When she returned 15 minutes later, they had been moved. For Lisa, it was no surprise.

“They were in a ‘T’ formation,” she explained, citing this has happened on more than one occasion, most commonly at night. “First I thought they were marking trails, but now I think it’s part of some kind of communication.”

For the past five years, Shiel has been intensively studying two profound phenomena, Bigfoot and UFOs. Scouring libraries, sifting through old publications and prodding researchers, Shiel obtained as much knowledge as she could. Based on her research, evidence and several personal encounters, Shiel wrote two non-fiction novels, and her latest, “Backyard Bigfoot: The True Story of Stick Signs, UFOs, and the Sasquatch,” published by Slipdown Mountain Publications LLC, reveals her findings.
