Well, Daedalus, maybe not so hard when this aphorism is taken into account: “When somebody’s living depends on his not seeing something, it is going to be awfully hard to make him see it.”

Nature is nature. Truth is they belong in those woods.

We are the intruders.

I guess in less you have a P.H.D in front of your name it is not possible for a common person to understand what they are seeing. Even though most of the people who live in the areas know quite a lot more about the creatures that live around them.

Even when they are given photos they just say it is something else. And I am having a hard time understanding why this is the way it is.

BODY trumps all….
