There have been lots of apes adapted to Cold, it just happens that we are the last ones left. Homo Erectus and its decendants roamed that area for the last million years.

Indeed, even todays Japanese macaque get by OK with a hot spa!

Human used to have a well developed psychic ability like detecting the presence of other creatures around him (I believe), and this faculty gradually lost as human tend to focus on his primary senses. Some animals have this psychic ability too(dogs, cats, etc.) as part of their instinct (animal psi). Some unknown creatures still has this ability of perceiving threat and use this effectively to elude predators. Humans are the most terrifying predators that cause extinction to large number of animals. Yetis, if they exist, must have this ability too and probably much better than any creatures living today, that they were able to hide themselves perfectly even their remains were still undiscovered at least publicly.

Don't have a link to explain this "lost psychic ability" do you?

seems like a huge waste of tax dollars if you ask me. Why not start an expedition to find the leprachaun and his lucky charms or santa and his reindeer? Tsk tsk.

Wait, this is being funded by tax dollars???

What?
Did you say "Some unknown creatures still has this ability of perceiving threat and use this effectively to elude predators"?  If unknown, how could you know?   How can phychic ability keep all remains hidden?

yes, it's common sense to people who are open minded enough and actually research the subject of the unexplained. Nicely said.

Some peoples idea of "research" seems to be making up whatever facts they can dream up to explain a phenomenom.  Thats not research, it creative writing.

I'll take the "creative writing" as a compliment, thanks

You should, some of your explainations and theories are very creative.  But that does not make them remotely real or qualify them as actual research on anything.  You seem to be unwilling or unable to see the difference actual proof and making facts up to fit yout stories.

I disagree with this statement (as it is presented). Care to elaborate on these cold climate adaptations?

My bet is very few of the cold climate adaptations you are referring to were physiological, and those few physiological adaptations were not adequate in and of themselves for survival in ice age Europe and Asia.

My bet is what you are claiming as adaptations to cold have nothing to do with cold, and more to do with brain development and technological development. Not only that I would bet the basic technological advancements needed for a tropical animal to migrate and survive in a cold climate were already well developed prior to them living in a cold climate.

I would also argue that there have not been a lot of what you call "apes adapted to Cold". In the long history of primates there have been multitudes of species. We know they started in the tropics and very few of that multitude evolved the physiology need to live in cold climates. And out of the primates no ape has ever been proven to have evolved the physiology to survive in cold climates. And out of the apes only one genus (Homo) has ever had the brain power, and technology to be able to live in cold climates.

As you can see very few apes have ever been able to live outside of the tropics.

I do not like the Russians and Americans get together for such an expedition, I think they are up to no good. Why would the scientists care if they exist or not? There is something else going on and we are not being told the entire story.
  My opinion is they want to capture one of them for some kind of experiments such as breeding. Anyway, we will  not be told the truth if they do capture one, either dead of alive.
  I remember a story on the History Channel where they said that Stalin tried to breed women with apes hoping to create a super warrior. The experiments supposedly failed but maybe not forgotten.

DNA analysis says you're not very well informed ac, if I'm not mistaken

You are very mistaken, as usual.......


DNA tests that come back " inconclusive " because the DNA was total crap and not good enough to get a good reading.

People like you call that " un-identified " and jump to conclusions.

There is NO, I repeat NO DNA evidence anywhere of any Crypto, other than on Crypto forums.

Show us the money smug, back up your claim.

Maybe there psi is broke?
