I just think it's kinda funny how someone can view a black and white photo on Wiki supposedly taken in 1906 of a dead Cross River Gorilla and accept it as fact.
Yet those same folks will scoff at a similar photo if it was supposedly Bigfoot.
I understand the argument that the Gorilla has already been proven to exist, so a subspecies was always possible. But the standard of proof does seem to differ.
I will admit though, a body should be on file to document any new species discovery.
What exactly is kind of funny or even slightly askew to look at the left photo and have no issue accepting it as genuine but to scoff at the right photo? Disregard the quality of the right photo or pretend it's better if need be.
I see dead 1906 gorilla and without a single doubt I say yes, that is a gorilla. I see something purported to be dead 1906 Bigfoot and I immediately think photoshop hoax. What is not right in that situation?
