Peace, TSK

This always happens When I go to Pee!

This has been posted before though. Still interesting pictures, I remembe hearing a story similar in Thailand, concerning these same creatures who are the protectors of " Buddha ", they grow from trees. A monk had two in his possestion.

Crap. Sorry for posting old news. IO always forget to search here first. My bad.

Geez I hate it when people say: this has already been posted. Its not like the world will come crashing down because somebody posted something. Instead of complaining about their post, make one of your own.

That is an interesting story though, it does look like a little human or alien.

Doesn't anyone else see the bird? It's like the famous "sea monster" pics that turned out to be a shark where the bottom jaw rotted off.

It's a dried up bird I tell ya. With the top beak gone/ broken off.

Either that or it's freaking BEAVIS. Look at that lower jaw. Uh, huh huh, I am cornholio!

They found it alive remember? How could the bird be alive and rotting and warm at the same time?

Rense SAID they found it alive. The pic is all we have to go on. Notice there are none taken of the living little hominid walking around with his pot of gold? Wouldn't getting a camera be your first thought if you found a freaking leprachaun, not let me dunk him in alcohol...

ITS A CHIMPANOPLATYPUS!!!!!

i shall call him.............................mini-me

It's a bit scary looking....

Apparently noone has considered the possibility that it's an aborted embryo? I asked my GF to look at the pic and that's what she said as well.

If they found it alive then it must have been recently aborted (if that is what it is). They never said they found it walking, or "carrying a pot of gold" (that is funny!). If I found it, that is what I would assume it was... just an embryo.

Also, I did check with my GF (majored in anthro at UW, minor in biology) to make sure that an embryo would be that far developed at that size... yes, it would. Who knows though... didn't they find that pimy people were real? Maybe this was a Pigmy newborn. Just speculating as rationally as I can :-)

Bah, I'm dumb... I must've skipped the part in the article about it maybe being a fetus. My bad.

I think some do think it is an aborted fetus. Also I read possible feline fetus somewhere.

Do you think it could possibly be fake. That maybe someone made it. Like it was before mentioned, all we have are the pictures. If its not fake, I would probably lean toward fetus.

Can they do a DNA test on this thing and end all this endless speculation?

This thing reminds me a lot of P.T. Barnum's Fiji Mermaid. Which was believed to be authentic for quite some time before it was found to be half of a monkey sewn to the tail of a fish. The transition between the two was apparently seamless. This could simply be a similar hoax, they have no proof that it was ever alive so it is looking more and more like a hoax to me. If they ran some DNA tests I would be more convinced.

That was the first thing that came to mind here too. This wouldn't be the strangest story people have made up to hide the shame of an abortion or a mishap. Poor mothers. And poor, poor babies. When will this end?
