Supposedly there is a skunkish hairy ape-man running around in the Everglades. What else is new? That describes 90% of the inhabitants of my fair state tongue.gif

well i've read reports of giant gators in florida, but there haven't been many sightings for quite a few years, probably due to the increase of the human population...they were said to be like 20ft or something...

hey did you ever watch that movie alligator?, it was quite good, it was about a gator that was flushed own the toilet, but then test animals were dumped in the sewers and it fed on these, but they were full of an artifical growth hormone...

anyway....

actually i've seen both the first and second one, good thing im not planning on going into the sewer...ever, that would be pretty ttrippy to see one of the mutated ones bout now

LOL Lottie, You must have hung out in the same bars I have! w00t.gif



A 14 foot Gator was pulled from a drainage ditch in South Florida recently. It was considered "really large" so I don't think they get too much bigger than that.

skunk apes dont exist they were created for a festival i think and blown out of proportion, although sightings are most likely of just stinky bigfoot or what not. and giant alligators are not cryptids just big alligators... anyways i have only heard of those too and i think the frogman was sighted there and also the lizardman if im not mistaken. in the everglades thats is.
Devilwolf
had to get on the map somehow
