I've seen images of mangy bears on a couple of sites discussing the Jacobs photographs, and the creature certainly has a lot in common with a mangy bear. But, as you say, there's enough ambiguity about the images to suggest they could show something else. I'm leaning towards it being a bear at the moment, but I'm refusing to close my mind to other possibilities.Sianihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13874104908066743264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3767416327551529488.post-24491926112860677802007-10-24T01:57:00.000+01:002007-10-24T01:57:00.000+01:00Howdy again, Siani. <BR/><BR/>Everyone is talking about the Jacobs pictures. I've seen a lot of people who should know saying it could be a sickly mangy bear. It doesn't really look like it has lost all its hair, but apparently there are different kinds of mange. Not my specialty. But the short feet, and the fact that the "head" from the last photo is (say these folks) not part of the creature means emaciated short-haired bear is a reasonable hypothesis.<BR/><BR/>Skinny bears do look a lot like what is on the pictures, but bears that small have very large ears.. hard to spot any ears there. And where's that little stubby tail we should see?The Blogsquatcherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17801496743216052338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3767416327551529488.post-75280609038710327202007-10-22T07:10:00.000+01:002007-10-22T07:10:00.000+01:00Thanks for the heads-up re: the book, Dustin. I'll look it up on Amazon. At the moment, I'm unconvinced by the bigfoot/UFO theories, but I tend to approach things with a pretty open mind, so who knows how I'll feel, after a bit more research?Sianihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13874104908066743264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3767416327551529488.post-31110765728370829772007-10-21T18:24:00.000+01:002007-10-21T18:24:00.000+01:00I never bought into the stories of bigfoot being associated with UFOs or anything of that nature until I read "Hunt for the Skinwalker" from Colm Kelleher recently. Fascinating book if you're interested in the paranormal as a whole.Dustinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05375111867777214371noreply@blogger.com
