Seeking the Indian Bigfoot
On October 31 appropriately Halloween, of course a team from the Britishbased Center for Fortean Zoology (CFZ) will be embarking upon a truly ambitious expedition to the Garo Hills of Northern India in search of legendary, hairy, manlike beasts know as the Mandeburung or,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], in simpler terminology,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the Indian equivalents of the United States Bigfoot and the Abominable Snowman of Tibet.
Jonathan Downes, the founder and director of the CFZ,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], says of these strange and elusive animals: creatures are described as being up to ten feet tall, with predominantly black hair. Most importantly, they are said to walk upright, like a man. Walking apes have been reported in the area for many years. These descriptions sound almost identical to those reported in neighboring Bhutan and Tibet. Witnesses report that the MandeBurung which translates as forest man is most often seen in the area in November. The area is internationally renowned for its wildlife,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which includes tigers, bears, elephants and Indian rhino and clouded leopards. Camera traps will be set up in sighting areas in the hope of catching one of the creatures on film. This creature is, of course, extinct. However, much contemporary fauna such as the giant panda, the Asian tapir and the Asian elephant that lived alongside the monster ape,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], still survive today. It is thought by many that Gigantopithecus also survives in the impenetrable jungles and mountains of Asia. Its closest known relatives are the Orangutans of Sumatra and Borneo. Dave Archer and local guide Sahar Didmus saw the creature,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and the group brought back hair that was later analyzed by Dr Lars Thomas at the University of Copenhagen. The DNA proved to be similar to an orangutan's, an animal not found in that part of Sumatra.
