Comments on: The Womble = Arkansas’ Bigfoot? http://www.cryptomundo.com/bigfoot-report/the-womble/ for Bigfoot, Loch Ness, and More Thu, 04 Dec 2008 03:22:27 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.1 By: hiram http://www.cryptomundo.com/bigfoot-report/the-womble/#comment-15565 hiram Mon, 15 May 2006 01:17:02 +0000 http://www.cryptomundo.com/bigfoot-report/the-womble-arkansas-bigfoot/#comment-15565 The Womble Bike Trail is named after the Township of Womble in Montgomery County, Arkansas. The Township contains the town of Norman. The town of Mt. Ida is about 8 miles north of Norman, and is the County seat. A sedimentary rock layer widespread across the Ouachita Mountains is also named after the Township; the Womble Shale. The Ouachita National Forest District in that part of western Arkansas is called the Womble Ranger District. The areas discribed have a very long and very colorful history of cryptic animal sightings. Descriptions of some of these animals match the typical Bigfoot descriptions. Descriptions of others are similar to those of large felids that are officially long extinct. Very vivid and detailed descriptions from "old-timers" of another enigmatic animal in the area do not remotely match any publicly reported cryptic from anywhere else in the country. After recording numerous stories from the residents of this area concerning enigmatic animals I have never heard anyone refer to any of the animals as "Wombles".

I have never heard any one specific term for the alledged creature here, although I have heard it referred to "Fouke Monster" more than any other. Others include (not suprisingly) bigfoot, wooly booger, and swamp ape. Womble is a new one on me. I live in Arkansas.

That seems the most likely to me. A quick google search will reveal plenty of Wombles. Could it just be a local family name? That seems the most likely to me.
