invergowrie arab Posted January 22, 2015 Author Share Posted January 22, 2015 I wouldn't be surprised if there was stuff lurking about the likes of Glen Clova and Glen Prosen as there's good bits up there that are still remote enough for whatever population to stay out of the way of landowners, walkers etc. At the same time though you'd assume that if it was anything of any size then there would be an effect on livestock as would surely be prey. Well they would be nocturnal for a start so only very rarely would you see them through the day. A big cat could easily keep out of your way if it needed to. Something the size of a lynx wouldn't need to take on livestock they could survive quite happily on roe deer, hare or rabbit. Having said that I have seen large red deer with their throat ripped out and rib cages opened in Sutherland. Have also found a "lair" with half a dozen sheep carcasses by Water of Tulla in lochaber. Apparently some loony ALF type group released 10 lynx in Sutherland around 2000. They could easily survive there undetected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamamafegan Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Not quite bigfoot, but keep your eyes in the skies if you are in #Perthshire http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-tayside-central-30933109 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 http://www.thecourier.co.uk/news/local/angus-the-mearns/my-reports-of-seeing-a-monster-were-not-taken-seriously-woman-says-she-saw-bigfoot-in-angus-1.799761 Seems legit. Have any other p&bers seen a Bigfoot in east Angus and then later found its skull adorned lair? Also, wid. Charmaine, who is orginally from Monikie and now lives in Edinburgh, said she saw the 7ft, black beast with no neck and broad shoulders in Carmyllie in the early 1980s. The real question is: would Charmaine get it, even though she's a nutter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 “Needless to say, my reports of seeing a monster were not taken seriously and dismissed as it probably being a neighbour. A 7ft neighbour with no neck. Does anyone know this person? bigfootresearchscotland@gmail.com I must tell them about my neighbour with no neck.

Hillonearth Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Cryptozoology is a strange subject - there's a lot of things that clearly exist, like the non-native eagle owls which have escaped from falconers and wildlife centres and actually appear to be forming a viable feral population in the UK, and the persistent stories of big cats which more likely have deliberately been set free by private collectors. On the other hand, you get pish like this. Britain's a small island, and it's unlikely a self sustaining population of 7ft nae-neck humanoids has escaped all attention other than that of some daft wumman walking her dog.

Bigmouth Strikes Again Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Another sighting down at the Arbroath cliffs. May be a different beast though: arbroath.JPG That's Gary Harkins before the annual shave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamthebam Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 My late old man's pal lived in Tannadice Village and used to claim there was a big cat roaming the countryside nearby. I put it down to his heid being mashed by a surfeit of drink and years of watching Forfar Athletic. Talking of which: Stewart Kennedy played in goal for Forfar Athletic in the 1980s and had a big beard then - was it a case of mistaken identity with Bigfoot? eh lived in Erbroath in the 1970s as a wee lad. Eh never saw a Bigfoot but eh once saw a man eating fish outside Swankies... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mel Hutchwright Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 No one believes me when I tell them this, least of all myself, but I once saw a Komodo Dragon beside Keptie pond. It gave me a saucy wink then ran up the hill towards the water tower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mel Hutchwright Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 No, it was about the size of a rowing boat. It was quite dark though, and I was half cut. In hindsight, it might just have been a rowing boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya Bezzer! Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I once found a seal carcass on the beach at Benderloch that had literally been bitten in half, you could see the huge bite mark! Could it have been a bigfoot that chomped the seal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
