@Shmargin: yeah I missed that part. Either way I have a feeling it’s a giant baboon.

The thing in ED62′s link does not look to me like the thing being described in the topic post. There is nothing canine in the image.

There are things commonly seen in the Southwestern deserts that can look a lot like ED62′s picture. My first impression of the image was that it was a dead stump of a joshua tree. These things die and turn dark, sometimes with a smaller protrusion atop the stump. However, looking closer, there appears to be muscle definition in the areas that would be the pectorals and abs. So, unless my eyes are trying to see more than is there, it could be an ape-like creature.

If what we see are pects and abs, the thing must be facing the camera, yet I can discern no facial detail at all. Which brings us back to the stump.

The image at the top of the original article is obviously CG, and probably bears no resemblance at all to whatever is shown in the show. I am not expecting anything revealing in this program. It will be a surprise if it is not just a repackaged “Monster Quest”.

“The Howler a mysterious creature believed to have killed dogs and livestock”

Dogs and chickens=coyote. Dogs and cows=? Big difference.

@Hapa The problem I am anticipating is that because it is a “skinwalker,” i.e., a human shapeshifter, any physical evidence is most likely going to be human, and so inconclusive.

I’m with shmargin, just another bad redux of “The Blair Witch Project.”

I just googled Giant Monkeys. Here's a link that backs up my Giant North American Baboon Theory and Giant North American Monkey theory.

Yes I had failed to read the part “Red-Rimmed Eyes”. Yeah, I’m going to agree with Hapa on #4. If the howling is near the red eyes, then it must be an unknown animal or cryptid. Although, I don’t think it’s a spirit. I think it’s just a large canine, maybe a giant extinct wolf… or a very large primate… Baboons do have deadly teeth! Why not a large monkey. Preferably a “Unknown Giant Baboon”… Maybe Apes like Bigfoot (if it exist) may not be the only primate in the United States and Canada… If Bigfoot is a ape? Then I would assume a large north American Monkeys (NAM) would exist as well. I was surprised to read about the extinct North American Lion. Although they have fossils, not all bones become fossils. So I wouldn’t rule out primates.

If the picture above is a real animal and if it’s a Skinwalker… It does seem Canine like and If you can Loren, can you make it clear if that picture is real or fake? It would really help most of us out that never seen that picture before. I’m also debating if that picture is real.

Hi All, I love cryptomundo and just registered. I found this photo "Giant primate-bigfoot-thing (Skinwalker?) in the Navajo Indian Reservation", would like your thoughts on it...

Thorough investigation is in order here. Following questions need answers

1. Was this indeed a hoax perpetrated to get ratings for the show
2. Was the film altered with CGI or contains evidence of other movie magic techniques and tools?
3. Have all possible animals been ruled out (Coyote, cougar, perhaps an exotic out of place animal…?)
4. Besides film, is there any other evidence collected (tracks, hair, scat?)

Cannot wait to view the film, but remember: still just a film without a body, major parts of one, or a live specimen!

I don’t get it. Is it supposed to be some new species of coyote? The picture up top appears to represent a dog or wolf-like face.

So the creature’s full body is on video? I would love to see this. Let’s hope it’s not a hoax to get ratings -_- Will this be the year of Cryptid Exposure?
