Morreh Posted March 3, 2012 #76 Share Posted March 3, 2012 So only unemployed people lie and people with jobs tell the truth? What a truly remarkable and simple world you live in. Logic: He has it in spades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morreh Posted March 3, 2012 #77 Share Posted March 3, 2012 (edited) He's not interested in being called a 'fake' etc. Why would someone with a professional career with birds of prey put his reputation in jeopardy if not totally genuine? That's the kind of thing unemployed people do, surely? Um.. no, that's the kind of thing anyone who desperately wants to boost their reputation does. You'd be surprised how easy it is to edit photos convincingly. [Edit] And just because he takes photos of birds of prey doesn't make him a master of mammalia.

vitruvian12 Posted March 3, 2012 #78 Share Posted March 3, 2012 So what line of work are you in v'? I build custom cabinets and handrailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NatureBoff Posted March 3, 2012 Author #79 Share Posted March 3, 2012 I build custom cabinets and handrailing. Okay, thanks. Interesting. I had a feeling it was something based indoors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vitruvian12 Posted March 3, 2012 #80 Share Posted March 3, 2012 (edited) Okay, thanks. Interesting. I had a feeling it was something based indoors. And you? I also spent 12 years as a commercial fisherman on the BC coast from vancouver to alaska, but I never saw a sea serpent or anything else. Travelling up and down the coast you see completely uninhabited isolated areas of wilderness, prime locations for your female hyrax to be fishing.

Sir Wearer of Hats Posted March 4, 2012 #81 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Logic: He has it in spades. If only he had it in his head rather then the shovel in his hands we'd be so better off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.United_Nations Posted March 4, 2012 #82 Share Posted March 4, 2012 So only unemployed people lie and people with jobs tell the truth? What a truly remarkable and simple world you live in. Yeah the OP has clearly lost his mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morreh Posted March 4, 2012 #83 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Yeah the OP has clearly lost his mind. I'm willing to bet that either a Hyrax or Glowbird stole it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NatureBoff Posted March 5, 2012 Author #84 Share Posted March 5, 2012 And you?

Travelling up and down the coast you see completely uninhabited isolated areas of wilderness, prime locations for your female hyrax to be fishing. I spent 8 years in the scientific defence industry before volunteering and travel. I was a self employed garden fencer for a while where I picked-up some practical skills. I just applied for a job in care support work for people with autism, but got the 'on this occassion' letter Saturday. I'll continue to create and build my 'kayak for the disabled' venture and intend to take my buddy with MS out by the end of the summer, all things going well..

sam12six Posted March 6, 2012 #85 Share Posted March 6, 2012 How can one unconfirmed species be identified as another unconfirmed species ? Not only that but the Orang Pendek is supposed to be a small bipedal ape-like creature, not a giant dog. That answer makes absolutely no sense whatsoever, there's nowhere to even begin rebuking it - it's ridiculous. HAHAHA!! The ultimate sign of a successful UM troll - Saru has been drawn into the argument!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sensible Logic Posted March 6, 2012 #86 Share Posted March 6, 2012 ..yawn...I'm sorry but I've been through this discussion before a long time ago. I've spoken to the man who took the photograph who's a professional with birds of prey and lives and works in Dartmoor. He has dogs himself. It definitely *wasn't* a dog he said. It didn't move like one. It was more feline-like in motion. P.S. There's a mention of the Orang Pendek in this month's issue of Focus magazine. Guess you missed this article of a family living close to the man who took the shots and has a dog that is nearly identical to the supposed Dartmoor Beast in the photos http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-472909/Thats-Beast-Dartmoor--pet-dog.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why accept a perfectly reasonable explanation for something when there's a fantastically far fetched one that will work just as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NatureBoff Posted April 4, 2013 Author #93 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Anyone with a degree could compare the hair sample magnification of the medulla with the rock hyrax and conclude that they are the closest match by far of all the known animals tested. Let's try to keep things relevant to the OP please. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
