Matt Moneymaker Says The Florida Skunk Ape Is a Statue

By -

Last week, The Huffington Post published a story about a Florida fisherman named John Rodriguez, who photographed a skunk ape bathing while he was fishing Dec. 26 on the Hillsborough River near northeast Tampa, Florida. We've sent Rodriguez for more details about the encounter, but have not received a response. According to witness, the skunk ape was a real animal:

"I fish for gar in the river and I bring my camera to take pictures of the birds and what not. I heard a squishing sound, looked over and saw this thing walking through the water and crouch down in the duck weed. It did not look like a guy in a suit -- it was definitely an animal. I took this picture and got out of there as fast as I could."

BFRO President Matt Moneymaker knows there are skunk apes in the area, but does not think the photographs taken by Rodriguez represents a real squatch. He's pretty sure it's was a statue he says:



Some of Moneymaker's followers agree. "Looks pretty lifeless with no spirit," one Twitter follower replied.

    Last I knew Eve was convinced this was real. If you don't know her, shes the one that said shed be drinking beers on the bus while skeptards drooled on each other looking for the real thing. Because she "knows" they exist. So who is in the wrong here, Bigfoot expert Matt Moneymaker, or Bigfoot Expert Eve?

    I don't think Rodriguez thought about people being able to zoom in on his photo and reveal it to be the obvious fake that it is.

    Maybe Rodriguez was trying to get some positive attention. Instead, he unexpectedly came across as yet another bigfoot hoaxing jackass.

      Who zoomed in and proved it a fake?? I'm not saying it's real, but I haven't seen this proved fake? How would Moneymaker know a real BF from fake, 6 seasons of NOTHING!

      Bigfoot has a more human looking nose (see Patty) not a gorilla nose. But the hoax had me at the while skunk stripe on the skunk ape. Did this dumb hoaxer think skunk ape was a hybrid between a skunk and a gorilla?

      What a dumbass!

      What do you mean 6 seasons of nothing? His name isn't Moneymaker for nothing. You go to work every day and he travels the world doing "squatch" calls, and probably makes way more $$ than you do.

      Plenty of BF reports suggest an ape like face with a hooded nose.

      Things are not as clear cut as some greenbacks may think.

      A funny part is the hoaxer originally termed it as a skunk ape taking a bath in a swamp. Do you see that water? I'd rather wash up in a mud puddle.

      If skunk apes took baths they wouldn't be called skunk apes.

      They'd be down at the local Tilted Kilt playing drop the dollar.

    Matt Moneymaker is also a statue so he should know. Michelangelo could have sculpted both out of marble with his eyes closed

Bigfoot injured by a forest fire was taken away and hidden by the authorities, not even Robert Lindsay can top this story

This story was circulating the internet way back in 2004, or maybe as far back as 1999. Back when everybody was on 56k dial-up modems and a "Facebook" was just a regular book with directory listing of names and headshots. This story was so disturbing and so shocking that nobody believed it at the time. It was the Robert Lindsay " Bear Hunter: Two Bigfoots Shot and DNA Samples Taken " story of the time. And like Robert's Bear Hunter story , this witness didn't have a name. The only thing known about the witness is that this person was a government employee, anonymous of course. The author of the story was a science teacher named Thom Powell who believe it really happened and that the whole story was an elaborate cover-up. Powell said the anonymous government employee alerted the BFRO about a 7.5 feet long/tall burn victim with "multiple burns on hands, feet, legs and body; some 2nd and 3rd degree burns". Sadly, there was no DNA samples taken from

Rumors abound on whether or not Finding Bigfoot will continue, but hopeful news is on the horizon. Snake Oil Productions, the production company responsible for Finding Bigfoot, is seeking a permit for filming in the Monterey, Virginia area. Monterey lies between the Monongahela and George Washington National Forests. Definitely a good place to look for bigfoot. We can only speculate if this means Finding Bigfoot has been signed on for additional seasons, or if perhaps a new bigfoot show is in the works. We'll keep you updated on any further announcements for sure.

Samurai Chatter: Have you used it in the field?

Editor's Note: This is a guest post by Suzie M., a sasquatch enthusiast. Crypto-linguists believe that the species known Bigfoot/Sasquatch/Yeti/Yowie ect speak and understand a complex language, which by all accounts seems to stem from Asia. When one listens to it there is definitely a sense of it being Chinese or Japanese. It is a very odd mix of sounds, clicks and what could be actual words. This is the reason some experts are looking into the Asian dialect theory, some have said it could be a lost dialect, which was carried from Asia by the Bigfoot species that colonised America.
