Yeah, this is creepy. It's a 19 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 1: creepy cryptid Yeah, this one that this oh what is 20 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:28,680 Speaker 1: the WrestleMania that you smell? But I'm cooking. Yeah, that's 21 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 1: not gonna work in this episode, because this is a 22 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 1: stinky critter. I also have no idea what you're talking about. 23 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: So well, it was twelve when I watched WrestleMania, so 24 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:40,840 Speaker 1: it's been a long time that the appropriate rates here 25 00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 1: all of the angry email. Well, this week we are 26 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 1: going to talk about a cryptid, and we're going to 27 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 1: talk about a cryptod that I think a lot of 28 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 1: people have probably not heard of before. No different, noman, no, no, no, no, 29 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 1: it's the mocking waw mopping. I'm gonna probably mispronounce it 30 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 1: every time I say, well, I'm just going to really 31 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 1: creatively avoid even saying at once. Okay, Well, the mopping 32 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:18,640 Speaker 1: Wari is a creature that is said to live in 33 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 1: the Amazon Rainforest, mostly in the northern part of South America, 34 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 1: so Brazil, Peru, Colombia, Bolivia, kind of that general tom 35 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: portion of the that continent. If that confuses you when 36 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 1: you look at the map, it's a fat part, yes, 37 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 1: it's South America. Was a drumstick that would be the 38 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 1: part with the meat, yes, yes, the part part, not 39 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: the sticky part. Yes. Uh So the locals in that 40 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 1: area have been telling each other stories for generations about 41 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:54,240 Speaker 1: this creature, and when the Europeans came to South America, 42 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: they very happily told them about the mopping Wari as well. 43 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 1: So let's this is a different creater. So let's just 44 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 1: kind of start at the beginning. Let's start with what 45 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 1: does it look like? I just want to sidetrack immediately 46 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 1: and tell you that my favorite thing about this part 47 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 1: of the world is that there are literally so many 48 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 1: different species of things that we genuinely have not discovered yet, 49 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: and so the idea of cryptids and things like that, 50 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 1: I just love. And I also extra love when the 51 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 1: white people came down there and the natives were like, listen, 52 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,079 Speaker 1: this is the thing we know. They were like, that's 53 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 1: not like anything I've ever sat heard. Absolutely, that's a 54 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 1: fake thing. What stop pulling my leg? There's nothing in 55 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 1: my pocket? Yeah no, I I so I don't know. 56 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 1: I immediately love the story immediately. Well okay, I feel validated, 57 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 1: thank you. Okay. Well, let's uh, let's just like I said, 58 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 1: start with the beginning, which is what is the mopping 59 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 1: Oar look like. I just want to say I like 60 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 1: the story too good. Well, you know, it's okay. I mean, 61 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 1: it's it's a it's a gradia. It's graduated scale. As 62 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: long as we all kind of like it, we're okay. Yeah. 63 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 1: Typically our creature is described as traveling around on four legs, 64 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: but it has been said to stand when it's standing 65 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: on its rear legs, stands somewhere between seven to nine 66 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: ft tall. That converts to to to two and three 67 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:25,920 Speaker 1: quarter meters. No, not short at all. We're not really 68 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 1: sharing what the creature weighs because nobody's ever found one, 69 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,840 Speaker 1: so they can't ever get an accurate guess on its weight. 70 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 1: And to be honest, I mean, you know, really, when 71 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,000 Speaker 1: all you can see is what it stands like in 72 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 1: the jungle, you're probably not too worried about its weight. 73 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:40,840 Speaker 1: You're probably worried about oh my god, that's a big 74 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 1: giant from it actually running away by this point, even 75 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 1: looking at it anymore exactly. The skin of the bopping 76 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 1: Warrie is said to be super tough. It's described as 77 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 1: being so tough that it is impervious to both arrows 78 00:04:56,480 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 1: and bullets. This particular cryptod is covered in a very 79 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 1: thick coat of hair all over its entire body, and 80 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:08,720 Speaker 1: that hair is sometimes described as like that. I have 81 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: you guys seen the photos of the tail of the 82 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 1: giant ant eaters. Yeah, yeah, and that hair looks I 83 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 1: don't know, it's giant locks of hair, that's what. Apparently 84 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,599 Speaker 1: this creature is covered in that length of hair. Something 85 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 1: in that range that's fairly rare and wild animals and 86 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 1: it well depending well, okay, in high altitude animals, you 87 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:39,159 Speaker 1: would expect that density of hair and the range forest. 88 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 1: But then again we gotta be careful of Okay, just 89 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 1: because the hair is long doesn't mean it's dead. Well, 90 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,159 Speaker 1: I guess the length is the thing already. That's throwing 91 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 1: me off, because I would agree that, you know, high altitude, 92 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:54,920 Speaker 1: you'd want dense, but you wouldn't want long because it 93 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:59,040 Speaker 1: would catch all the snow and freeze and get clumpy. 94 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 1: You want dead short hair. So really, there's no good 95 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 1: reason for an animal to have long hair like that, 96 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 1: because it's pretty much always good for in almost any 97 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 1: pretty just pretty much just gonna get really awful and 98 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:16,840 Speaker 1: hinder them. It's not good, and they have to be 99 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:21,919 Speaker 1: sheered regularly. Does not always proceed in a rational manner. 100 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 1: A lot of people try to, you know, believe that 101 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 1: it does, but not necessarily. Yeah. Well, in the hair 102 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:32,719 Speaker 1: on this particular creature, the coloring is debatable. Some people 103 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: will say that it is reddish in color. Others will 104 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 1: say that is more of a black colors. We don't 105 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 1: have an exact and with cryptids it's always like this, 106 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: so I'm not really thrown off a lot of times 107 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 1: it matters on the lighting that people have, Truman or 108 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 1: you know, maybe they're like people and they just have 109 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 1: different colored hair. Absolutely, absolutely, the most animals do. Yeahue 110 00:06:56,040 --> 00:07:02,279 Speaker 1: The hair though, apparently needs to be washed because the 111 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:08,720 Speaker 1: mopping warri is a stinky, stinky, stinky critter. Uh yeah, 112 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: it by accounts of locals, you know that it has 113 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 1: arrived by your nose sensing it before you actually see 114 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 1: or hear it show up. How do you know that 115 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 1: these are just like, you know, hippies? I really, I 116 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 1: was really thinking, man, it's just one of those seventies hippies. 117 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 1: But then I realized the story went way back. This 118 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 1: is where the hippies came from. The hippie the hippie 119 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 1: origins sounded. No, I don't think that's it, But I 120 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 1: do enjoy the stories that I've read from locals that 121 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 1: talk about the mopping Warri showing up and they're hiding, 122 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 1: and as it gets closed for the smell gets stronger 123 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 1: and stronger until it is so strong and overwhelms them 124 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: and they pass out. I'm just I find it really funny. 125 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: I mean, it takes a really strong smell to make 126 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 1: somebody just pass out. It does, it does. And we'll 127 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 1: talk about the reasons of why that might quote unquote 128 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 1: be happening. But it would make sense to me if 129 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 1: they had long hair in the rainforest, if the sweat 130 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 1: that was coming off of them and then the general 131 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 1: stank of being dirty in general was all getting j yeah, 132 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: or you know, berries and stuff getting stuck in there, yeah, 133 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 1: I mean, or sliding through it, you know it, and 134 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 1: then it just gets all stuck in the fur and 135 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 1: just forments, yep, yep, you don't want to get on 136 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 1: that slipping slide terrible. According to legend, the mopping Wari 137 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 1: has really really big claws on both its front and 138 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 1: its rear feet. And speaking of the feet, there is 139 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 1: something that is described about its rear feet that is 140 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: strange and it took me a while to sort out, 141 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,439 Speaker 1: and that is that the description of its rear feet 142 00:08:56,480 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 1: typically says in the accounts that they were backward facing, 143 00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 1: and initially I thought, well, that's weird. It's front feet 144 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 1: facing forward and its back feet are facing completely backwards. 145 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 1: It doesn't make any sense. But what I started doing 146 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 1: some research. What I figured out is that there are 147 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:19,200 Speaker 1: some animals that have really large claws, like let's say 148 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 1: the sloth modern day slaws, they have really long claws. Well, 149 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: those are meant for hanging onto trees and branches and 150 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:31,880 Speaker 1: traveling around in that arboreal forest, but if they're on 151 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:35,560 Speaker 1: the ground, it's terrible for walking. So what they end 152 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 1: up doing is kind of curling their claw underneath their 153 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:42,959 Speaker 1: foot walk on the clause. Yeah, they kind of walk 154 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 1: on the claw and the side of their foot. Yeah, 155 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 1: like in that very cute sloth picture that devon is 156 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 1: now waving around. So it's it's very strange, but it's 157 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 1: kind of a if you if you took your hand 158 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:56,960 Speaker 1: and you took your fingers and you folded them under 159 00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 1: and then rolled your hand onto the side slash heel, 160 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 1: That's that's kind of what they're They're walking on the 161 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 1: side of their face pointed backwards. It feels kind of like, um, 162 00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 1: like your when your nails get really long. I know 163 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 1: all of you have this happened to you a the time. 164 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 1: But if your nails, imagine your nails were really really 165 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 1: long and you're trying to crawl, your nails were like 166 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,679 Speaker 1: getting stuck, so they'd be pulling your feet like kind 167 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 1: of backwards. That's what that looks like to me, which 168 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 1: is I think a symptom. A symptom of that is 169 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 1: the curling them under there. Either way, they're not actually 170 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,960 Speaker 1: backwards facing, so like that. But that's a weird thing. Yeah, 171 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:37,839 Speaker 1: it is still weird, I guess unique. Yes, it's got 172 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:42,719 Speaker 1: two front ends possible. Yeah, that's like, so what it 173 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 1: stands as high and lace. It's really doing a handstanding 174 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:49,680 Speaker 1: and standing out both at the same time. So there's 175 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 1: all kids of strange things about this critter. Another strange 176 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 1: thing about the mopping wire is it's face, which is 177 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 1: this is up for a lot of debate. Some people 178 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 1: say that the face is like a hairy humanoid face 179 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 1: or a monkey ish face, you know, shorter nose, two 180 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 1: eyes that are side by side instead of say like 181 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,199 Speaker 1: a dog's you know, rabbits where they're kind of more 182 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:17,199 Speaker 1: on the side of the head. So it's more humanoid 183 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:22,200 Speaker 1: in that regard, But then there's other stories that say that, no, 184 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 1: it doesn't have more of your traditional human face. It's 185 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 1: got more of a snout. But it only has a 186 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 1: single eye, So it's a cyclops, which we have not 187 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:37,679 Speaker 1: seen in nature before. Because say, there's no good practical 188 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,559 Speaker 1: reason for one single eye. That's there's a lot of 189 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 1: reasons to have to at least if the two. At 190 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,440 Speaker 1: the minimum, I have four, and I'm very happy about 191 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 1: that to talk to you about work with two, because 192 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:55,440 Speaker 1: the more the better, definite rency. If you lose one 193 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 1: or two, you still got a few more. Yeah, if 194 00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 1: I don't cut my hair, I can still see because 195 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: I have such long hair. I've been dancing around this. 196 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:06,199 Speaker 1: But we should probably get into yet another weird feature 197 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 1: of this cryptod, and that is its mouth, or more 198 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 1: appropriately its mouths plural, because it has a normal mouth 199 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:21,120 Speaker 1: on its head where you would expect to see said feature, 200 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 1: but according to the stories, it also has one in 201 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:29,319 Speaker 1: the middle of its stomach. That's. You know, if you 202 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 1: happen to be choking to death but you're still hungry, 203 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:34,320 Speaker 1: you can still feed yourself. Oh, is that why that happened? 204 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 1: We'll see. That's not what I got from the reading. 205 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,679 Speaker 1: The reading I got said that the reason there's a 206 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:44,319 Speaker 1: second stomach there is because this cryptod you are second mouth, 207 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,439 Speaker 1: I should say on its stomach is that it's there 208 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:51,680 Speaker 1: because this particular cryptod uses it to devour people who 209 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 1: upset it, so that it can stuff an entire human 210 00:12:55,120 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 1: being just right into its middle straight of the So 211 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 1: it's really like no face from spirited away something like 212 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 1: where it's actually just a mask on his face and 213 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 1: his actual mouth is just in the middle of his stomach, 214 00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 1: and it's just a horrible disaster. That's right, That's yeah. 215 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 1: And the reason that the mopping Gwari is supposedly devours 216 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 1: people is that it's a defender of the forest. It's 217 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 1: kind of the captain planet of the Amazon, Hary, very stinky, 218 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 1: hairy captain planet, wh because he smells bad, and this 219 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 1: creature would smell a vision to Harry that too appears 220 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 1: that so I have made that joke about it being 221 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,680 Speaker 1: the defender of the forest because the stories of the 222 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:51,080 Speaker 1: mopping Guari are that they overharvest, or they kill too 223 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:55,679 Speaker 1: many animals, or they're just disrespectful and burn and they 224 00:13:55,720 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 1: do bad things. And one of the common threads around 225 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:05,160 Speaker 1: owned that is the peckery's. Peckery's for those of you 226 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 1: who don't know, they kind they aren't pigs, but they 227 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 1: look and a lot like the pigs that we know 228 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:19,680 Speaker 1: here in the first world family. They are on the 229 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 1: high you know what. I don't even know if they 230 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 1: actually are in the pig family, but they are. They 231 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 1: there are several feet high. They can wait. They can 232 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 1: wait up to a hundred pounds, which is equate tots. 233 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 1: They cloven hooks. They're really hairy little critters and their omnivores, 234 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 1: so they will eat anything, though they prefer vegetation, so 235 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 1: they dig in the dirt and they eat up roots, 236 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 1: and then they eat grasses and trees and whatever comes 237 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,560 Speaker 1: their way. They're really kind of a cross between goats 238 00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 1: and pigs when you think about it, you know, yeah, well, 239 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 1: goats and pigs are actually kind of the same thing 240 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 1: in just a different profile. They will both eat just 241 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 1: about anything. One has more hair than the other, and 242 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 1: that's really the difference. And what has club and feet? 243 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 1: Things don't have club and feet, do they? Yeah, they totally. 244 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 1: They are part of the suborder, the same suborders Okay. 245 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 1: When I did the initial reading, I got the feeling 246 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 1: that they were on a different branch, but it was 247 00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 1: just even towd ungulates. Yes, okay, they are part of 248 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 1: the even to so goats and deer have something different 249 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 1: going on with them. They're not part of that apparent. Really, 250 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 1: you know, we're not going to go to that pack 251 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 1: They have different they have a different teeth, oh, their palate. Okay, okay, 252 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 1: it's fine. Yeah, it doesn't matter. Because here's the thing 253 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 1: is that the packery, it turns out, is a great 254 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 1: source of meat, and so folks in South America love 255 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 1: to kill them and harvest them to eat. And there 256 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 1: are many, many stories of guys going out and killing 257 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 1: way too many packery's at once, only to have the 258 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 1: moth worry show up and chase them away from their prize. 259 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 1: So well, it's because they were disrespecting the forest and 260 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 1: taking way too much at one time, more than the 261 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:16,360 Speaker 1: stories say. More than they Yes, I will say that 262 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: this whole eating people in the stomach mouth thing. Yeah, yeah, 263 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 1: you're you're big people eater, you know, the big middle 264 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 1: people eater portion. Uh, that's a little off of some 265 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 1: of the descriptions which say that this cryptid is a vegetarian. 266 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 1: It's not a vegan, because even cryptids won't be vegans 267 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 1: unless they're vegetables. Uh no, well, let's see. That's the 268 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 1: problem is that we've we've got these these two sides 269 00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 1: of the story where it is if the mopping wire 270 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 1: is observed eating with its upper mouth, it's headmouth. It's 271 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 1: only going to eat vegetation. It only uses the stomach 272 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 1: mouth for devouring humans. So either it is a vegetarian 273 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:07,320 Speaker 1: or it's an omnivore, which means that we're safe as 274 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,640 Speaker 1: long as we don't disrespect the forest, or we're all 275 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 1: on the menu. But yeah, I'm not sure that they 276 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:17,879 Speaker 1: say it's a vegetarian or you know, or maybe but 277 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:20,240 Speaker 1: how would they know. It's like it's only glimpsed occasionally, 278 00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 1: So how do they really know what it eats? Well, okay, 279 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:24,639 Speaker 1: so one of the ways that we know that is 280 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 1: to the stories that are told, because there's a story 281 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 1: that how did the people who tell these stories notice 282 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 1: do they find have they found droppings? Well, so it's 283 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 1: it seems to be through observation of possible attacks as 284 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:44,119 Speaker 1: well as bite marks. Because here's a here's a story 285 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:48,440 Speaker 1: that we have here of a farmer who said that 286 00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:51,879 Speaker 1: has heard of cattle. It's like a hundred cattle if 287 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:55,160 Speaker 1: I remember right, And over a very short period of time, 288 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:59,800 Speaker 1: all of his cows were killed and eaten or fed upon, 289 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:04,080 Speaker 1: and he blamed it all on the mopping glory. Now, 290 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 1: I'll be I'll be honest with you. I'm pretty sure 291 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 1: that this guy was just bitter because he originally started 292 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 1: out farming goats only to find out that choopy had 293 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:16,920 Speaker 1: moved into the area. Yeah, and then he went for cows, yeah, 294 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 1: just to find out that the mopping glory was also 295 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 1: in the mobby's fault that he likes cow. Yeah. So 296 00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 1: in this case, it probably was the message that he 297 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 1: was setting is it's not even so much that I 298 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:30,159 Speaker 1: hate cows. It's just like you cleared all this area 299 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,120 Speaker 1: to raise cows. You low down all these trees. Maybe 300 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,119 Speaker 1: there's that the message, because I wouldn't think the moping 301 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 1: wary would really hate cows. No, No, because I mean, 302 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:41,440 Speaker 1: cows are dumb, lovable critters. So I'm guessing that it 303 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,200 Speaker 1: would send a message. Yeah, but I mean, not only 304 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 1: are you clearing a bunch of forest, but a large 305 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,520 Speaker 1: herd of cows on a naturally large herd of cows 306 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 1: does some things to the environment around it that it 307 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:57,440 Speaker 1: gives a complete misuse often of the environment. And like really, 308 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,119 Speaker 1: so I can see if that's if that follows it, 309 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 1: that he will only he they it will only you know, 310 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,359 Speaker 1: go after things that are really threatening their environment for 311 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:10,760 Speaker 1: whatever reason, whether it be killing too many of one 312 00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:15,480 Speaker 1: thing or clear cutting and whatever. A giant heard of 313 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 1: cows trying to bring the number down to a more 314 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 1: sustainable harmonyic harmony harmonious harmonious group makes sense to me 315 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 1: as well. But harmonic harmonic, harmonic, harmonious harmonious. Yeah, yeah, 316 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 1: that's a great point. Okay, that could be it hereens 317 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it turns out the mop Warry he sees 318 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:42,760 Speaker 1: the bigger picture and he says, look at all the 319 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:46,200 Speaker 1: methane those cows are produced, all that belting, and well 320 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:49,240 Speaker 1: you know what comes out to the other end parting, 321 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:53,680 Speaker 1: Oh my god. Turns out, by the way, cows are 322 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 1: terrible on waterways because they just destroy the banks of 323 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 1: all Stralia, which is a huge natural oregon can in 324 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:07,399 Speaker 1: large enough numbers. Yeah, they found out some of some 325 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:09,680 Speaker 1: of the eco systems like in uh, you know, in 326 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 1: the Midwest or in America. They found out when they 327 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 1: did away with all the predators that the els in 328 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 1: the deer actually did a lot more damage than they 329 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:17,879 Speaker 1: would have done normally when things were a little more 330 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:21,680 Speaker 1: imbalanced because there was just chew things. Yeah, it's a 331 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 1: really interesting study. I think Yellowstone they re released a 332 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:29,680 Speaker 1: bunch of wolves into yellow Stone and they found out 333 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: that literally everything suddenly just became way better. Yeah, I 334 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 1: mean everything, like even the fact like the forest actual 335 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 1: trees and the forests were suddenly way healthier because it 336 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 1: just they just kept everything in checking. Those kind of 337 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 1: tap those top predators to really keep everything in check. 338 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:51,880 Speaker 1: So maybe that's what this is. Sorry, that's probably too close, 339 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 1: you know. I mean it's it's it's a great idea. 340 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:57,440 Speaker 1: I mean it could explain a lot of things, which 341 00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:01,200 Speaker 1: we'll get into when we're in the theory. Let's continue 342 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 1: with their description because we must have a couple of 343 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 1: little bits of description of the boping wari left. Turns 344 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 1: out this particular cryptod is not indstructible. You remember in 345 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 1: the beginning I said it's skin is supposedly so tough 346 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:18,160 Speaker 1: that arrows and bullets can't go through it. But if 347 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:21,399 Speaker 1: you shoot it in the head, I'm guessing through the eye, 348 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 1: you can kill it. I don't know where this information 349 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:30,199 Speaker 1: comes from, but you see it everywhere, which is weird 350 00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:32,240 Speaker 1: because of the fact that there has never been a 351 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 1: body found and nobody actually says they've ever killed one. 352 00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:38,679 Speaker 1: Yet they tell you this is how you kill it. 353 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 1: So it's that's a subs A few people have killed them, 354 00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 1: but they just didn't bother bringing the body back home, 355 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:47,440 Speaker 1: or which smelled too bad. Yeah, I mean, either it's 356 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 1: smells you bad or you know. If this is a 357 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 1: very old oral tradition, we I think it's fair to 358 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 1: say that there's the possibility that somebody years ago killed 359 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 1: and you know, and and said, okay, well this is 360 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 1: how you do it if you ever really need to. 361 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 1: But really try not to because the only reason they're 362 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 1: going to come after you is if you're being horrible, 363 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:12,719 Speaker 1: right right, Ye see final bit of information we have 364 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:16,800 Speaker 1: here the So overall, I think we've all kind of 365 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:21,400 Speaker 1: established that the mopping Wari sounds like a legend, as 366 00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 1: Devon was just saying years ago, and it is possible 367 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 1: that that's the case, but there actually is today or 368 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 1: in recent history a group of people who have been 369 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 1: actively looking forward. And they are, or they were at 370 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 1: least a couple of years ago, headed by a man 371 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:48,320 Speaker 1: named David orn Or was an ornithologist, but he's pronounced 372 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 1: ornithologist or anthologist. What do you make Okay, forget it. Yeah, 373 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:55,879 Speaker 1: I did that a purpose, Okay, forget it. But he 374 00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 1: was in orthologist and he went to South America on 375 00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 1: a regular basis to study the birds there, and at 376 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 1: some point while he was there he heard about and 377 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 1: then became very interested in the Mopping Guarry. He's gone 378 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 1: on several expeditions over the years, but of course has 379 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 1: never found anything conclusive. I mean, it's it's funny is 380 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 1: that I read the articles about him and he's going 381 00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:21,919 Speaker 1: down there, He's doing this is the same thing that 382 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:26,880 Speaker 1: bigfoot hunters do, which I just totally don't get. Yes, 383 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:29,399 Speaker 1: he goes down, he does this call. He has no 384 00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 1: idea if it's the right call. He could literally be 385 00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:35,480 Speaker 1: saying shut up and run away in their language, but 386 00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:37,679 Speaker 1: he has no freaking idea. But he's still bellowing this 387 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 1: noise out. Hopefully it's not saying I's like, hey, I'm 388 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:46,720 Speaker 1: a hot I'm a hot mopping garry chick. Um. Yeah, 389 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:48,159 Speaker 1: it's kind of like me with my cats, you know, 390 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 1: if I'm trying to call my cats and I go 391 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:53,479 Speaker 1: wow wow. Yeah, we've had a conversation about that. We've 392 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 1: heard you do that before. I don't know what what 393 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,160 Speaker 1: the cats here at there and if that even remotely 394 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:01,400 Speaker 1: sounds to a cat like at meow? Butth head butt head? 395 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 1: Apparently he thinks butt head? Is it a dermot? Did 396 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:14,920 Speaker 1: you means? But you know, the thing is is that 397 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,720 Speaker 1: he went He's been down there for several expeditions. He 398 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 1: hasn't found squat. I don't know if he's still doing these. 399 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 1: It sounded like his career. A lot of people were 400 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:29,440 Speaker 1: looking at him very poorly for this in this scientific community. 401 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:31,879 Speaker 1: It's he's frowned upon to look for a cryptod like 402 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:35,240 Speaker 1: this and buy in so heavily. So we don't know. 403 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 1: So I guess this is the initial fail for science. 404 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:42,960 Speaker 1: So our questions here as we get into theories are 405 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 1: what is the moppinguarri and does it exist or does 406 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 1: it not? So let's I want to say that just 407 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 1: for star and is that I don't think from a 408 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 1: professional standpoint, he's done anything wrong, because it's not like 409 00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 1: he's out there publishing luney articles about it. He just 410 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:03,159 Speaker 1: goes out and walks on the jungle looking for evidence 411 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 1: that it might exist. Well, he publish this stuff about it, 412 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:07,879 Speaker 1: but I mean, he doesn't make looney claims about it. 413 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:10,639 Speaker 1: You know, Well that depends on your definition of looney. 414 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 1: He doesn't say stuff like, wow, you know, this totally exists, 415 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:15,680 Speaker 1: you know, and it's it's a super badass and it's 416 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,200 Speaker 1: thirteen feet tall. And then he doesn't say stuff like that. 417 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,000 Speaker 1: He just says, you know, I think it might exist. 418 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 1: Maybe possibly there's something too, which he's producing accounts from natives, 419 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 1: and so in that way, he is recording their their 420 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 1: their tradition, their tradition, their perspective, and their stories. But 421 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:41,679 Speaker 1: he's he's taking it in a very serious scientific approach, 422 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:47,880 Speaker 1: and he is not pursuing very serious scientific things according 423 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 1: to the scientific community. So I understand where you're coming from. 424 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 1: But that is the reason that they are poo pooing him. 425 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 1: We're doing there's uh, you know, it's it's it's one 426 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:00,200 Speaker 1: of those things. There might be just a you with 427 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,400 Speaker 1: them out there. They might just be very elusive, So 428 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:04,639 Speaker 1: let's all for not and we're going to cover that 429 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:09,159 Speaker 1: and yeah, which we should do right now. Remember it's 430 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:11,639 Speaker 1: up to us. Bigfoot is the crucial part of the 431 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 1: ecosystem if he exists, So let's all keep Bigfoot possibly 432 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:17,919 Speaker 1: alive for few generations. Unless he doesn't exist, then we 433 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 1: shouldn't the end that FUTA doesn't. It's just how I 434 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:27,040 Speaker 1: feel about this, Okay, right, Well, then you're gonna be 435 00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:28,119 Speaker 1: happy to know that we're going to get in a 436 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:31,000 Speaker 1: theory perfect we're going to solve this one. So the 437 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 1: first theory is that indeed the mock Bingwari is a 438 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:41,479 Speaker 1: legend because I mean, well it's it sounds very legendary. 439 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:46,160 Speaker 1: And as we all know, every culture out there has 440 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:52,400 Speaker 1: stories of creatures that they used to explain. They used 441 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,640 Speaker 1: them to explain away things that they just don't understand. 442 00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:59,080 Speaker 1: I think also every culture has a story to scare 443 00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:00,879 Speaker 1: the crap out of the kids so they won't wander 444 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:04,240 Speaker 1: off into the darkness they do. I mean, I was 445 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:07,959 Speaker 1: just let's this theory does say could be based on 446 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:13,960 Speaker 1: something kind, right, but I would say pretty solidly most 447 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 1: indigenous people have some lore around something that is deeply 448 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:24,879 Speaker 1: discouraging greed and over use of land's absolutely, but is 449 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 1: usually based on some sometu whether it be a bear, 450 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 1: lion right exactly, or a fox. And the thing is 451 00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:38,200 Speaker 1: is that this area, this part of South America or 452 00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 1: South America itself, has some really unique creatures that are 453 00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 1: in this legendary vein. My favorite one is the boto. 454 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 1: This cracks me the hell up. Yeah, the bhoto is 455 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:56,359 Speaker 1: a dolphin that lures girls away from their village and 456 00:27:56,400 --> 00:28:00,119 Speaker 1: then has sex with and impregnates them. So whenever a 457 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 1: girl shows up and she shouldn't be pregnant quote unquote 458 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 1: shouldn't be a pregnant because she is not married, you know, 459 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:12,879 Speaker 1: according to local custom, they grab it off and have 460 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 1: a shotgun wedding. Makes sense, Well, it means that this 461 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:20,360 Speaker 1: dolphin critter has shown up and everybody is pulling out 462 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 1: their iPhone and sending back and forth dolphin and eggplant emojis. 463 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 1: Now I did. I did a bunch of reading, and 464 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 1: it turns out that having a creature like the mopping 465 00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:35,280 Speaker 1: garry to blame things on is a great way to 466 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 1: save face when something goes bad or you don't do 467 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:44,240 Speaker 1: the best job that you could. So little house. My 468 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 1: house fell over. You know it's not because I can't 469 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 1: build a foundation where the crap there's that. Or the 470 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:54,400 Speaker 1: example that I have is that you go out into 471 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 1: the forest to hunt peckery's because you're gonna hunt them 472 00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:00,160 Speaker 1: and you're gonna butcher them and sell their meat or 473 00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:02,240 Speaker 1: use that meat to feed your family. And maybe you're 474 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 1: not a very good hunter. It turns out crappy hunter 475 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:08,719 Speaker 1: or your dink fod and you screw around and you 476 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 1: don't actually do anything. Well, then you can say, oh, well, 477 00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:15,880 Speaker 1: the mopping guari was there and it scared me away, 478 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:18,480 Speaker 1: Or if you really need to ratch at the story up, 479 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:22,560 Speaker 1: you say, oh, I shot seven of them with in 480 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:26,280 Speaker 1: one day, but then the creatures showed up and chased 481 00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:28,719 Speaker 1: me away and took my pride. I really liked the 482 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 1: idea of some like really lazy guy or no guy. 483 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 1: I mean, it's okay guy going out into the forest 484 00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:39,720 Speaker 1: and then later people go out to look for him 485 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 1: and they find him asleep and they wake him up 486 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:44,840 Speaker 1: and he goes, oh, the smell of the mopping. I 487 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 1: can't say, yeah, it knocked me out. I can't The 488 00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 1: last thing I remember, it's some really long hair, it 489 00:29:53,720 --> 00:30:01,520 Speaker 1: smelled so bad, just like okay, yes, why is your 490 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 1: blankie here? Yeah, it's like the idea of you know, 491 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:07,040 Speaker 1: the guy who's an hour late to his job and 492 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:10,280 Speaker 1: he's about to invent daylight saving time, whereas bosses like, 493 00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:11,440 Speaker 1: why are you in our late and he's like, oh, 494 00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:17,560 Speaker 1: haven't you heard? It's great? Same thing. This is probably 495 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:20,920 Speaker 1: the Yeah, that's a and the same with the invention 496 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,480 Speaker 1: of this where some guy got caught napping and he 497 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:25,920 Speaker 1: was like, well haven't you heard of this thing? And 498 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 1: everybody else. I was like, oh, I don't want to 499 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 1: look like I'm dumb, so I'll just go along with it. 500 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:32,320 Speaker 1: I don't want to think. I don't want it to 501 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:34,960 Speaker 1: seem like I don't understand this art. Of course I 502 00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 1: understand it. Yeah, So it turns out that makes sense. 503 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:41,840 Speaker 1: Devin might be right, But it also could be that 504 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 1: there are a lot of strange things in the jungle, 505 00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 1: and when it is dark and inhospitable in that environment, 506 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:55,440 Speaker 1: sometimes you see and you hear things that you just 507 00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 1: can't explain. And while they may just be perfectly normal. 508 00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 1: Run the day critters when it is dark and they 509 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 1: are crashing through the forest and underbrush at you. You 510 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 1: are not willing to stand around and wait for them 511 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:13,880 Speaker 1: to figure out what they are. Instead, you hide tail 512 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 1: it away. That is the time at which point you 513 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:21,920 Speaker 1: will make up a description of said animal. Yeah, so 514 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:25,000 Speaker 1: that could be where it is that the mopping water 515 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 1: came from. I will say, the thing that I find 516 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:31,720 Speaker 1: really interesting about the story of the mopping Wari is 517 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:37,000 Speaker 1: that the that north that, as Joe called it, the 518 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:42,000 Speaker 1: top of the stick of South America, that is huge area. 519 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,320 Speaker 1: It is really big. And there are all of these 520 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 1: indigenous tribes that don't have any contact with one another, 521 00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 1: and yet they all have a different name for the 522 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 1: mopping guari, but they all seem to describe the same creature. 523 00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 1: So that makes you wonder if they're not talking to 524 00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:08,720 Speaker 1: one another in it. Well, please please dash my hopes. Well, no, 525 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 1: I'm not going to dash her hopes. I'm just going 526 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 1: to say that I think there are enough similar but 527 00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 1: different descriptions of this creature. Right. Some say that it 528 00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:22,520 Speaker 1: is a cyclops. Some say that it's got a giant 529 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 1: mouth in its stomach. I would assume that we're saying 530 00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:30,720 Speaker 1: their general assumptions of the very giant, hairy thing, the 531 00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:35,560 Speaker 1: very giant, hairy, stinky thing. Yeah, which like could describe 532 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 1: us in this room right now? Really, why does she 533 00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:45,000 Speaker 1: keep talking? No? But you see where I'm going with this, 534 00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:48,520 Speaker 1: right is that I think that there are enough kind 535 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:53,840 Speaker 1: of different descriptions of this thing to explain there could 536 00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:57,200 Speaker 1: be a sighting of something that's fairly normal, but the 537 00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:00,480 Speaker 1: own lore has kind of taken it to that next 538 00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:04,080 Speaker 1: level and made it the legends. Because again, if there is, 539 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:06,680 Speaker 1: if there is in fact a seven to nine foot 540 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:12,920 Speaker 1: giant hairy thing, even if it's a total total vegetarian creature, 541 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 1: that is no threat whatsoever. But if there's something like 542 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 1: that in the forest up there, which there may well 543 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:23,160 Speaker 1: could be, I would absolutely take that to scare my 544 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:25,960 Speaker 1: children out of not going in I would, you know, 545 00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:28,320 Speaker 1: sure the kids didn't go in there. And you know, 546 00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 1: you change one thing, you change an eye, you make 547 00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:36,239 Speaker 1: a giant mouth in the middle, you whatever to make 548 00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 1: it a little extra scary. But it's kind of like 549 00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 1: the internet, you want to punch things, right, But so 550 00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 1: that that just kind of seems like that to me. 551 00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:49,320 Speaker 1: I mean American Native American tribes have a lot of 552 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,680 Speaker 1: that too. You see a lot of lower crossover in areas. 553 00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 1: So yeah, And the thing about it is is these 554 00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:58,520 Speaker 1: tribes are like all separated now, but they all came 555 00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:03,640 Speaker 1: from the same place Africa they did, and well Mesopotamia. 556 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:07,479 Speaker 1: But well, and how long did it take the story 557 00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 1: to travel from one side of the continent to the other. Well, yeah, 558 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:13,279 Speaker 1: but yeah, it could be that. Yes, they tell the 559 00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:18,359 Speaker 1: same vary variation, but it has a central a central point. Yeah. 560 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:21,640 Speaker 1: And also thousand years ago or something far farther than that. 561 00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:25,359 Speaker 1: I mean, man, you know humans arrived in ten, ten, 562 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 1: fifteen thousand years ago. But and so that would explain 563 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:31,240 Speaker 1: something else too. This could be a creature that existed 564 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:34,719 Speaker 1: like ten thousand years ago, and it may well have existed, 565 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:39,840 Speaker 1: and so something very similar. It seems unlikely that a 566 00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:43,320 Speaker 1: real cyclops with a giant mouth in the middle of 567 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:47,160 Speaker 1: it existed, but some version of this may have existed. 568 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:50,000 Speaker 1: Something that something with two eyes, I think, but in 569 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:53,320 Speaker 1: something that maybe resembled a mouth in its midriff. I 570 00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:56,120 Speaker 1: would agree, maybe something that resembles is not actually a mouth, 571 00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:58,040 Speaker 1: But I didn't think. There are more theories and we 572 00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:01,120 Speaker 1: can explore that more in the theory. Yes, absolutely, you're 573 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:04,200 Speaker 1: both absolutely right, and we're gonna We're actually gonna re 574 00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:07,680 Speaker 1: We're gonna cover some of that territory. Again, Let's move 575 00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:11,840 Speaker 1: on to theory number two, which is everybody's favorite theory, 576 00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 1: which is that it was Biggie, not Biggie Smalls, but 577 00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:23,400 Speaker 1: Biggie Foot. Because yes, yes, so it is believed that 578 00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:29,600 Speaker 1: possibly the mopping Guari is just a relative of Bigfoot 579 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:33,320 Speaker 1: if you look at and and By the way, this 580 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:37,520 Speaker 1: is not an episode on Bigfoot, so please excuse the 581 00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:43,440 Speaker 1: brevity here, but in general terms, Bigfoot is. Sightings are 582 00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:49,160 Speaker 1: reported all over the United States, but the vast and Canada, 583 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:53,440 Speaker 1: but the vast majority of them are on the West coast. 584 00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:56,759 Speaker 1: That's where the highest concentration of sightings are. If you 585 00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:59,719 Speaker 1: look and you run down the coast, the western coast 586 00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:01,919 Speaker 1: of the US, you know what you find. You find 587 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:06,680 Speaker 1: a great trail right into that drumstick portion of South America. 588 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:09,120 Speaker 1: That's the way they went down there. So that is 589 00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:13,520 Speaker 1: the theory is that they migrated south over time, the 590 00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:17,880 Speaker 1: Bigfoot clan, and they, you know, they said, hey, we 591 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:20,400 Speaker 1: like soccer more than you do here in North America, 592 00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:22,480 Speaker 1: so we're gonna go down there where they have soccer. 593 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:26,280 Speaker 1: So that's why they traveled south, and now the mopping 594 00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:31,279 Speaker 1: guarr is all over the Amazon forest playing soccer. Well, 595 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:32,759 Speaker 1: you know, I look at it this way. It's like 596 00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:39,000 Speaker 1: man started emigrating, migrating across the land bridge between Siberia 597 00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:44,520 Speaker 1: and Alaska years and years ago, and yes, just decades ago. 598 00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:46,480 Speaker 1: And actually it was decades ago if you have a 599 00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:51,320 Speaker 1: lot of decades, literally tens of decades, yea hundreds of anyway, 600 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:54,239 Speaker 1: hundreds of thousands of tens of decades. Right, And so 601 00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:57,800 Speaker 1: here's all these these humans showing up and there's Bigfoot 602 00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:00,560 Speaker 1: just hanging out, and they're like, crap, Like all these 603 00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:02,320 Speaker 1: people now we've got to like hide and be elusive 604 00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:04,160 Speaker 1: and all this crap. And I don't like that. A 605 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:06,200 Speaker 1: lot of them packed up and move south to get 606 00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:10,759 Speaker 1: away from these interlopers, and the interlopers, unfortunately, kept moving 607 00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:14,440 Speaker 1: south all christ time to move again, and so essentially 608 00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:17,400 Speaker 1: mankind was just pushing big Foot further and further south, 609 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:22,080 Speaker 1: and essentially big feet excuse me, yeah, and until eventually, 610 00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:24,520 Speaker 1: you know, they wind up all the way in South America. 611 00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:30,480 Speaker 1: Would a big, big big Foot with a Well, the 612 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:32,880 Speaker 1: thing is, though, is if I mean to Joe's to 613 00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:34,759 Speaker 1: talk about what Joe saying is that the ones that 614 00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,279 Speaker 1: didn't move, the ones you said this is my land, 615 00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:41,000 Speaker 1: I own this land. They then became our modern Bigfoot, 616 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:46,839 Speaker 1: who are the international hide and see champions. So if 617 00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:50,160 Speaker 1: they are related, if the mopping Guiri is related to Bigfoot, 618 00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:53,719 Speaker 1: then it's no wonder that they haven't even been able 619 00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:56,520 Speaker 1: to get a blurry photo of them, because the mopping 620 00:37:56,520 --> 00:38:00,040 Speaker 1: guiries even better at hide and the seat that you 621 00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:03,400 Speaker 1: don't even know that they exist. Bingo, we know they exist, 622 00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:06,600 Speaker 1: of course they do. Well, yeah, maybe, yeah, Let's move 623 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:09,440 Speaker 1: on to our next sery though. The next theory is 624 00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:15,360 Speaker 1: that the mopping Wari is a relative, or actually the 625 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:18,719 Speaker 1: relative it is a giant slot. I like this one 626 00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:21,880 Speaker 1: a lot. I really dig one. You've seen pictures of 627 00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:27,000 Speaker 1: this guy, I have, I mean everybody the megatheriyeah. Yes, 628 00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:30,560 Speaker 1: ancient giant slots. Yes. So for those of you who 629 00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:34,239 Speaker 1: don't know, there was a huge giant animal that lived 630 00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:38,239 Speaker 1: in South America during the early play a scene which 631 00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:42,279 Speaker 1: is the giant slop and this creature is much like 632 00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:47,359 Speaker 1: slots today, except way mega bigger. There are a lot 633 00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:49,440 Speaker 1: of big animals back then. Yeah, yeah, there was a 634 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:51,640 Speaker 1: lot of megafunt like around around here in the in 635 00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:55,360 Speaker 1: the Organ area North Pacific Northwest. Yeah, it's fun, but 636 00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:59,960 Speaker 1: we have like six rom pound beavers. Imagine a six pounds. 637 00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:03,680 Speaker 1: I cannot but that that was the joy of having 638 00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:06,400 Speaker 1: such a high density of oxygen and things like that. 639 00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:09,000 Speaker 1: It could s a stain that sort of critter and 640 00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:11,960 Speaker 1: an oxygen level drop. That's why we don't have giant 641 00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:19,960 Speaker 1: dragonflies anymore because spiders. Thank God for that Cawaite children. Yes, yes, 642 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:24,680 Speaker 1: maybe that's what happened to Washington's eagle. But the the biggest, 643 00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:30,440 Speaker 1: the giant sloth, weighed about four tons and was somewhere 644 00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 1: around twenty ft long from nose to tail. That converts 645 00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:40,719 Speaker 1: to about six meters. And this thing was basically the 646 00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:44,320 Speaker 1: size of a mammoth, you know, ye old wooly mammoth, 647 00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:48,719 Speaker 1: that we wooly mammoth that is somehow larger than modern elephants. Right, 648 00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:54,360 Speaker 1: so it's bigger than a modern elephants. Giant creature nowhere 649 00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:57,960 Speaker 1: near as cute as a modern sloth, I am sure 650 00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:02,960 Speaker 1: fifty times or scary as long as he said, I 651 00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:04,520 Speaker 1: don't know, as long as he was in of the 652 00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:07,000 Speaker 1: same thing as he was just being slothful. Well, they 653 00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:10,320 Speaker 1: had longer noses. They walked on the ground and the 654 00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:15,279 Speaker 1: trees yeah yeah, way way too big to be in trees. 655 00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:17,799 Speaker 1: And I mean there was mega fauna at that point 656 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:22,320 Speaker 1: or flora as well as meg yeah, but not not 657 00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:25,520 Speaker 1: that big. And so they walked on the ground and 658 00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:29,920 Speaker 1: they stood up to feed on plants trees at that time, 659 00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:35,160 Speaker 1: big big nose, big mouths, not like now. But the 660 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:38,200 Speaker 1: thing is is that these creatures, as with a lot 661 00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:41,040 Speaker 1: of the creatures, the mega fauna from the pli scene, 662 00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:45,360 Speaker 1: they died out about ten thousand years ago because it 663 00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:48,320 Speaker 1: turns out the Earth was not made to sustained stuff. 664 00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:51,600 Speaker 1: The Earth changed to a point that it couldn't sustain 665 00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:54,400 Speaker 1: those kinds of things it actually was designed or for 666 00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:57,560 Speaker 1: like a hot second. Yeah, it's actually right about right 667 00:40:57,600 --> 00:40:59,640 Speaker 1: about that time that man was discovering how to make 668 00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:05,640 Speaker 1: two was including like spears. But we did coexist, right 669 00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:08,279 Speaker 1: yeah with them, Yeah, I mean we exist at the 670 00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:10,480 Speaker 1: same time, like at least most of these things did, 671 00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:13,000 Speaker 1: like you know, the sabracute tiger and the wooly man. No. 672 00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:15,279 Speaker 1: I just think that's an important distinction to make when 673 00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:21,359 Speaker 1: we talk about this, like prehistoric time, especially giants. Well 674 00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:24,480 Speaker 1: it's not necessarily before man, but we talked about dinosaurs, 675 00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:28,239 Speaker 1: and then oftentimes this kind of era gets plumped in 676 00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:33,839 Speaker 1: with this dinosaur world but different but totally different era, 677 00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:38,760 Speaker 1: and an era that humans were developing with not written 678 00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:41,839 Speaker 1: but certainly oral traditions. Yes, this is before we were 679 00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:44,520 Speaker 1: hunched over a keyboard. We were still the running, we 680 00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:48,120 Speaker 1: were still hunched over, we were standing. Yes, yeah, we 681 00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:51,200 Speaker 1: were definitely bipedal at this point. But I think that 682 00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:54,040 Speaker 1: is something that's interesting to mention when we talk about 683 00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:57,680 Speaker 1: this because, as we were talking about in the last theory, 684 00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:02,719 Speaker 1: if this is an oral tradition, it is possible. Man, 685 00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:07,160 Speaker 1: it was so old, this legend that just kept getting 686 00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:10,160 Speaker 1: passed down and down and down, and people just were saying, well, 687 00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:12,080 Speaker 1: they're still there. Of course they're still there. Why would 688 00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:15,439 Speaker 1: they not still be there. They're not there anymore? Yea, yeah, 689 00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:18,440 Speaker 1: probably true. Yeah. I just think that's worth many yeah 690 00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:21,800 Speaker 1: yeah so so. But the basic theory here is that 691 00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:28,560 Speaker 1: the mopping Wari is in fact a megatherium, and that 692 00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:35,879 Speaker 1: the species had somehow managed to live nearly undiscovered all 693 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:38,800 Speaker 1: these years in the Amazon Force. Remember they were in 694 00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:44,120 Speaker 1: South America ten thousand years ago, and the descriptions of 695 00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:48,480 Speaker 1: its size and its claws would certainly support that they 696 00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:52,279 Speaker 1: are very similar. And there there is the issue of 697 00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:54,719 Speaker 1: the second mouth that definitely was not But I would 698 00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:59,600 Speaker 1: say a giant sloth is much larger, right, but we're 699 00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:02,440 Speaker 1: going to but as we're talking, an ancient giant sloth 700 00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:11,680 Speaker 1: genuinely would be way bigger. They also and that's the 701 00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:14,279 Speaker 1: next theory. And there are their animals out there right 702 00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:16,319 Speaker 1: now that they're you know, we all read about them 703 00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:17,880 Speaker 1: all the time. Oh my god, we thought this thing 704 00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:22,120 Speaker 1: was extinct. For they found, like fifty years ago there 705 00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:24,799 Speaker 1: was some fish that they were certain had died out 706 00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:29,200 Speaker 1: of thousand or five thousand years ago. Think it starts 707 00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:31,720 Speaker 1: with an L and then I think it's like luck something. 708 00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:34,640 Speaker 1: But then they found it and oh my god, we 709 00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:38,640 Speaker 1: discovered it again and then dropped it and killed it. Yeah, 710 00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:41,480 Speaker 1: but but it was living in some river in some 711 00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:48,600 Speaker 1: Amazonian for situation, because that's usually where these stories happened. 712 00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:51,520 Speaker 1: And that's why this story is so interesting to me. Again, 713 00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:55,040 Speaker 1: as as I said at the top, that these stories 714 00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:58,000 Speaker 1: of no, no, that's totally extinct. It's been extinct for 715 00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:02,839 Speaker 1: like hundreds of thousands of then suddenly they say, oh 716 00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:08,000 Speaker 1: my god, we founded they've been alive this entire time. 717 00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:12,080 Speaker 1: So the other things that that kind of seemed to 718 00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:16,520 Speaker 1: work against this but maybe don't. Is we talked about 719 00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:20,400 Speaker 1: that whole second mouth thing. It turns out though modern 720 00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:25,759 Speaker 1: sloths have scent glands on their backs, and the fur 721 00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:30,120 Speaker 1: around that scent gland is completely in the color of 722 00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:32,759 Speaker 1: in contrast to the rest of their fur, so it 723 00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:35,960 Speaker 1: stands out. So it could be that something that is 724 00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:39,799 Speaker 1: a modern equivalent of the megatherium has sent glands as well, 725 00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:43,040 Speaker 1: but they're on its front. And because of that different 726 00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:46,799 Speaker 1: colored skin and the look of those glands, it could 727 00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:48,919 Speaker 1: be that people said, oh my god, that thing looks 728 00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:52,520 Speaker 1: like a mouth or it was running and they didn't know. 729 00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:55,520 Speaker 1: And if it's a giant thing with a giants gland, 730 00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:59,680 Speaker 1: that would explain the giant stink coming off the giants. 731 00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:04,120 Speaker 1: That would explain that. I was going to say, there 732 00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:08,000 Speaker 1: are plenty of much smaller species. There are a lot 733 00:45:08,080 --> 00:45:11,520 Speaker 1: of like moths, for instance, in this world that have 734 00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:17,560 Speaker 1: over the millennia evolved. Basically, it's just a defense mechanism 735 00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:20,920 Speaker 1: or a fear mechanism. To make it so that they 736 00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:24,280 Speaker 1: look like something else, right, And so it is possible 737 00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:28,160 Speaker 1: also that they just evolved that when they stand up, 738 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:32,560 Speaker 1: it looks like they have a giant or something like 739 00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:36,880 Speaker 1: giant and scary exactly to scare things away, and that 740 00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:40,279 Speaker 1: their defense mechanism is in fact to stand up and 741 00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:42,520 Speaker 1: put their arms out, like we're supposed to defend ourselves 742 00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:46,640 Speaker 1: against cougars, and it just looks like there's a giant 743 00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:50,560 Speaker 1: face everywhere, and that scares most of the other animals 744 00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:59,960 Speaker 1: where it's a giant head or it could be march. Yeah, 745 00:46:00,160 --> 00:46:02,680 Speaker 1: you want you want to hear something weird about moths 746 00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:06,400 Speaker 1: and evolution. So it turns out, you know, there are 747 00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:13,160 Speaker 1: these crazy maths that have these amazingly long probiscus okay, 748 00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:19,680 Speaker 1: And everybody said, well, that must have evolved in response 749 00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:25,920 Speaker 1: to a really long flower. And Darwin got involved in this. 750 00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:29,279 Speaker 1: This is that's how old this conversation is. And if 751 00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:34,279 Speaker 1: I remember correctly, what Darwin said was, oh, there's these 752 00:46:34,320 --> 00:46:37,120 Speaker 1: flowers that have these really long things, Well, then it 753 00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 1: must have been there was a moth with this amazing 754 00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:43,759 Speaker 1: probiscus first, and the flowers went towards it. I think 755 00:46:43,840 --> 00:46:46,239 Speaker 1: as he said, it went the opposite direction of what 756 00:46:46,320 --> 00:46:49,320 Speaker 1: you would expect it to be, and they have recently 757 00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:53,920 Speaker 1: affirmed a hundred and fifty years or so later, they 758 00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:57,160 Speaker 1: found evidence that proves that, oh yeah, the plants were 759 00:46:57,280 --> 00:47:02,800 Speaker 1: reacting to this critter instead of the critter reacting to 760 00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:07,040 Speaker 1: the evolution of the plan. I don't know it was. 761 00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:10,600 Speaker 1: It was way outside of my pay grade, but just 762 00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:13,440 Speaker 1: the moth thing got me on that. Let's get back 763 00:47:13,480 --> 00:47:16,520 Speaker 1: into the theory. Though. I'm easy to side track, but 764 00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:18,800 Speaker 1: I can tell you where we're at. Which is the 765 00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:22,160 Speaker 1: problem with this whole theory of it being a megatherium, 766 00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:26,759 Speaker 1: and that is, of course, that the Amazon rainforest is 767 00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:32,680 Speaker 1: continually shrinking under pressures of both logging and the desires 768 00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:38,239 Speaker 1: for usable farmland. So I could see that, you know, 769 00:47:39,080 --> 00:47:41,120 Speaker 1: hundred or two hundred years ago, would be hard to 770 00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:43,560 Speaker 1: find this critter because none of this land is developed. 771 00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:46,560 Speaker 1: But it's more and more pressure is put on it. 772 00:47:46,560 --> 00:47:49,359 Speaker 1: In the area is shrinking more and more. You think 773 00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:54,400 Speaker 1: that the chances of finding what, yeah, would increase, It 774 00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:57,480 Speaker 1: would become easier and easier to find, and we have 775 00:47:57,760 --> 00:48:01,200 Speaker 1: not found. I would say not necessary really, because it's 776 00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:06,160 Speaker 1: totally reasonable to assume that the population is decreasing as well, 777 00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:12,239 Speaker 1: because lack of habitat, a population tends to grow to 778 00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:17,160 Speaker 1: the size on the land that it's supported, or decrease 779 00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:22,200 Speaker 1: to the land that it's supported. It's not as though, Yeah, basically, 780 00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:26,040 Speaker 1: if you know, we had twenty acres and we had 781 00:48:26,080 --> 00:48:29,440 Speaker 1: a hundred of these creatures, and then suddenly you have 782 00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:32,360 Speaker 1: ten thousand acres, you're probably not going to have that 783 00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:36,799 Speaker 1: same amount of those creatures. They're gonna die off, They're 784 00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:39,759 Speaker 1: gonna the alpha males are going to kill each other, 785 00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:42,680 Speaker 1: whatever is going to happen, it's gonna happen. Yeah, it's 786 00:48:42,680 --> 00:48:46,400 Speaker 1: not sustainable. So I agree with that. Well, I agree 787 00:48:46,440 --> 00:48:50,600 Speaker 1: with that in theory, but I also think that nature, um, 788 00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:55,239 Speaker 1: what's the quote life finds a way something like that, right, 789 00:48:55,480 --> 00:49:00,480 Speaker 1: But of course that the whole counter to my account, well, 790 00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:04,640 Speaker 1: the whole counter to the megatherium theory is, as Joe 791 00:49:04,719 --> 00:49:09,800 Speaker 1: brought up, is that humans existed around the same time 792 00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:13,680 Speaker 1: as these creatures did. So it is possible, as he said, 793 00:49:13,760 --> 00:49:17,040 Speaker 1: that the story of them was simply passed down through 794 00:49:17,040 --> 00:49:20,120 Speaker 1: the generation. I said that, I said that it's it's 795 00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:23,360 Speaker 1: it's stuff. So Joe had to say, because he's the 796 00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:28,320 Speaker 1: old one of the group, so he was around I 797 00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:31,120 Speaker 1: was not around that quite then. I'm sorry, I was 798 00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:34,480 Speaker 1: trying to give you credit. But okay, Devin, I said 799 00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:36,480 Speaker 1: it last. Joe might have said it first, but I 800 00:49:36,560 --> 00:49:40,960 Speaker 1: think it doesn't really matter. Yea, yeah, and that's good. 801 00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:45,120 Speaker 1: So we have another theory, which is the unknown descendant 802 00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:51,880 Speaker 1: of the giant sloth already but probably my favorite. But 803 00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:53,920 Speaker 1: there's some details that we haven't gone over as to 804 00:49:54,080 --> 00:49:57,759 Speaker 1: why this could be a viable theory. There is and 805 00:49:57,840 --> 00:50:01,040 Speaker 1: this is something that you will see in a lot 806 00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:05,759 Speaker 1: of stuff in the animal kingdom, and that is the 807 00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:11,200 Speaker 1: reduction and scale of animals. Because it is based on 808 00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:16,400 Speaker 1: the changes in the environment. Animals will grow bigger or smaller, 809 00:50:16,440 --> 00:50:18,839 Speaker 1: which is why we saw things in the early Pliocene 810 00:50:19,200 --> 00:50:22,240 Speaker 1: start to get bigger, and then as the environment changed, 811 00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:24,680 Speaker 1: they started I mean, we went from three six pound 812 00:50:24,719 --> 00:50:29,560 Speaker 1: beavers to thirty pound beavers or beavers like they shrunk greatly. 813 00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:32,480 Speaker 1: And that's based on the what the environment was, or 814 00:50:32,640 --> 00:50:37,120 Speaker 1: the populations and populations and so it it is the 815 00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:41,520 Speaker 1: known phenomena. And there is something that you see in 816 00:50:41,640 --> 00:50:45,240 Speaker 1: the reading. Sometimes you'll see it referred to as island 817 00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:49,000 Speaker 1: dwarfism or insular dwarfism, and that is where a population 818 00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:53,960 Speaker 1: is contained in an area and based on that their 819 00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:57,800 Speaker 1: their numbers reduced, but the general size of the individuals 820 00:50:57,840 --> 00:51:00,960 Speaker 1: in that population will reduce. And here's an example. So 821 00:51:01,080 --> 00:51:07,560 Speaker 1: we all know the mammoth. Mammoths were humongous creatures exactly, 822 00:51:08,120 --> 00:51:11,799 Speaker 1: except there was a population of them that ended up 823 00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:16,759 Speaker 1: on some islands and in I think we don't even 824 00:51:16,800 --> 00:51:18,640 Speaker 1: know actually I can't even say. I think I don't 825 00:51:18,640 --> 00:51:21,560 Speaker 1: know how many generations, but a very small number of generations. 826 00:51:22,120 --> 00:51:27,719 Speaker 1: Their size reduced greatly from creatures that stood twenty plus 827 00:51:27,840 --> 00:51:32,160 Speaker 1: feet tall two creatures that stood more about four to 828 00:51:32,440 --> 00:51:36,920 Speaker 1: five feet tall, and they are very small and based 829 00:51:36,960 --> 00:51:40,520 Speaker 1: on environmental changes that just happens because that's the way 830 00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:45,080 Speaker 1: they were able to live. Because the ones we probably yeah, 831 00:51:45,080 --> 00:51:46,839 Speaker 1: I was gonna say, we probably don't need to dive 832 00:51:46,920 --> 00:51:52,080 Speaker 1: into this whole evolutionary theory or but but realistically, you know, 833 00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:54,520 Speaker 1: you're on a small island. It's going to be able 834 00:51:54,560 --> 00:51:59,480 Speaker 1: to support genetically smaller things because they better to be 835 00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:05,880 Speaker 1: a physical island. If your habitat is very specific, that 836 00:52:06,239 --> 00:52:08,320 Speaker 1: counts as an island as well, and so not. What 837 00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:11,040 Speaker 1: the theory is, that's exactly what I was just saying before, 838 00:52:11,200 --> 00:52:14,239 Speaker 1: is that either a population size will diminish or the 839 00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:18,200 Speaker 1: actual physical size will diminish. So those are the two options, right, 840 00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:21,239 Speaker 1: it's either or both or both. And so at this 841 00:52:21,360 --> 00:52:24,319 Speaker 1: point what's happened is that everything is shrunk and they're 842 00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:27,160 Speaker 1: in a very specific set of areas. But of course 843 00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:32,120 Speaker 1: nobody's mapping that. The locals are just freaking out running away. 844 00:52:32,239 --> 00:52:36,040 Speaker 1: They don't know. So it could be that these creators 845 00:52:36,239 --> 00:52:39,960 Speaker 1: really do exist, but they're in such small population sizes 846 00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:43,560 Speaker 1: and they diminished enough and they don't even necessarily exist today. 847 00:52:43,600 --> 00:52:45,520 Speaker 1: Maybe they all died out a couple of hundred years ago, 848 00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:48,640 Speaker 1: or maybe they are you know, the size of a 849 00:52:48,719 --> 00:52:52,879 Speaker 1: sloth just kept striking. Now they're tiny well and they're 850 00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:54,839 Speaker 1: you know, the same size as a sloth, and then 851 00:52:55,520 --> 00:52:59,400 Speaker 1: stores could have killed them out. We don't know. I mean, 852 00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:02,799 Speaker 1: it's trick with that area. The thing is so yeah, 853 00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:05,879 Speaker 1: there's just there's this there's this mopping guy out there 854 00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:08,000 Speaker 1: and you were over harvesting the pack rays and he's 855 00:53:08,080 --> 00:53:09,880 Speaker 1: really ticked about it. But it's a little pip squeak 856 00:53:11,080 --> 00:53:14,560 Speaker 1: about He's like the equivalent of a house cat, right, 857 00:53:14,640 --> 00:53:19,320 Speaker 1: God's perfect killing machine, but somehow tiny. Yes, we just 858 00:53:19,480 --> 00:53:34,160 Speaker 1: keeps from from Zutopia. I'm going to get weirded you exactly. Yeah, 859 00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:39,080 Speaker 1: joke ever in an animated movie. Anyho, you need to 860 00:53:39,120 --> 00:53:41,040 Speaker 1: see that movie. I think if you can stream it, 861 00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:43,640 Speaker 1: I know you can stream it. So our last theory 862 00:53:43,719 --> 00:53:48,600 Speaker 1: here is that indeed the mopping Guari is a totally 863 00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:53,279 Speaker 1: different actual animal. Yeah, so it could be that it 864 00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:58,680 Speaker 1: is just getting credit for the giant and eater? Did 865 00:53:58,719 --> 00:54:00,920 Speaker 1: Grant and eater? You've got have seen photos of the 866 00:54:00,960 --> 00:54:07,000 Speaker 1: giant and they are creatures, but they're they're kind of cute, Yeah, 867 00:54:07,040 --> 00:54:09,120 Speaker 1: they got they're Yeah, they're kind of they're like a pug. 868 00:54:09,200 --> 00:54:12,600 Speaker 1: They're so ugly they can be cute and either giant 869 00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:14,560 Speaker 1: Andrews for those of you who don't know that, of course, 870 00:54:15,239 --> 00:54:18,520 Speaker 1: so they got the big long, weird head. But they 871 00:54:18,680 --> 00:54:22,480 Speaker 1: also are about six to seven ft long, which is 872 00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:25,440 Speaker 1: the equivalent of about two meters, and they weigh in 873 00:54:25,520 --> 00:54:30,200 Speaker 1: about seventy to ninety pounds, which is thirty three tots, 874 00:54:30,440 --> 00:54:34,600 Speaker 1: which is nowhere. So this puts them standing upright sort 875 00:54:34,680 --> 00:54:40,680 Speaker 1: of in the same range and side up though, I 876 00:54:40,840 --> 00:54:44,640 Speaker 1: don't they do. They can't. I don't think they do normally, 877 00:54:45,040 --> 00:54:47,239 Speaker 1: but they and I don't know that they smell bad. 878 00:54:47,320 --> 00:54:49,480 Speaker 1: But they, like we talked about before, they've got really 879 00:54:49,600 --> 00:54:53,400 Speaker 1: long fur and it's kind of blackish I think normally 880 00:54:53,520 --> 00:54:56,920 Speaker 1: the images I've seen there, they're grayish black. Right, It 881 00:54:57,000 --> 00:55:02,560 Speaker 1: depends on there. Okay, it's like dogs, they have different colors. 882 00:55:02,640 --> 00:55:05,799 Speaker 1: And again, I think it depends on where they're from 883 00:55:06,440 --> 00:55:09,520 Speaker 1: to You'll get a lot of this happens with almost 884 00:55:09,560 --> 00:55:13,719 Speaker 1: every species. What it depends on where they are, how 885 00:55:13,880 --> 00:55:17,279 Speaker 1: what they need to be blending you, Like corgis there's 886 00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:21,520 Speaker 1: different breezes depending on where and what eales they're from. Yes, yeah, yeah, 887 00:55:21,640 --> 00:55:25,040 Speaker 1: depending on their natural environs. Is the furniture in this 888 00:55:25,160 --> 00:55:29,680 Speaker 1: house that? Yeah? Well so the thing to remember though, 889 00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:35,400 Speaker 1: is that the giant ant eater is a pretty passive creature. 890 00:55:35,920 --> 00:55:40,320 Speaker 1: They are not normally an aggressive creature, but they will 891 00:55:40,640 --> 00:55:45,960 Speaker 1: fight back if they are threatened, So yes, that's very true. 892 00:55:46,600 --> 00:55:51,120 Speaker 1: They also apparently like to sleep in dense foliage, which 893 00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:54,840 Speaker 1: could lend credence to the It's rushing out of the 894 00:55:55,040 --> 00:55:59,239 Speaker 1: underbrush at me, and it's super scary that could be 895 00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:03,879 Speaker 1: part of it. I don't know, but I mean again, 896 00:56:03,960 --> 00:56:06,680 Speaker 1: the whole thing of people running away before they see 897 00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:09,839 Speaker 1: the animal that that could lend. Oh well, I didn't 898 00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:15,920 Speaker 1: realize there's a certain embarrassment factor there too. I ran 899 00:56:15,920 --> 00:56:18,439 Speaker 1: away from you ran away from an ant eater, ted, Yeah, 900 00:56:20,160 --> 00:56:23,759 Speaker 1: you are no, it was much scared a bigger than that. 901 00:56:24,760 --> 00:56:27,319 Speaker 1: I'm currently looking at a picture of a giant ant 902 00:56:27,360 --> 00:56:30,480 Speaker 1: eater is a certain breed I full disclaimer, I don't 903 00:56:30,520 --> 00:56:33,640 Speaker 1: know where it is or anything. And gray one, but yeah, 904 00:56:33,640 --> 00:56:37,000 Speaker 1: it's black and gray. But the black patch is in 905 00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:42,319 Speaker 1: a very distinct like smile across its shoulders and through 906 00:56:42,400 --> 00:56:45,480 Speaker 1: its chest outlined in white that I can imagine if 907 00:56:45,560 --> 00:56:47,680 Speaker 1: that were standing up, I would maybe think that was 908 00:56:47,760 --> 00:56:54,600 Speaker 1: a giant open mouth att Yeah. Almost. Yeah, So there 909 00:56:54,640 --> 00:56:58,960 Speaker 1: are patterns like that in in their species. The giant 910 00:56:59,040 --> 00:57:02,160 Speaker 1: ant eater also has really big claus. Now, of course, 911 00:57:02,280 --> 00:57:06,319 Speaker 1: those are designed digging to dig up ants and get 912 00:57:06,400 --> 00:57:11,440 Speaker 1: into their it's colonies. I would say, yeah, most animals 913 00:57:11,520 --> 00:57:14,880 Speaker 1: that I know of, at least that have really terrifyingly 914 00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:18,480 Speaker 1: long clause use them for digging or climbing. They don't 915 00:57:18,520 --> 00:57:22,919 Speaker 1: really use them to like shred yah, yeah, yeah, yeah. 916 00:57:23,280 --> 00:57:26,240 Speaker 1: And and so that's the thing is that, well, okay, 917 00:57:26,920 --> 00:57:30,120 Speaker 1: they don't they're not all that aggressive, they're not all 918 00:57:30,200 --> 00:57:34,000 Speaker 1: that dangerous, except that it turns out that, as we said, 919 00:57:34,320 --> 00:57:36,600 Speaker 1: you can make them mad and they will come at you. 920 00:57:36,680 --> 00:57:39,320 Speaker 1: I was reading stories of a couple of hunters a 921 00:57:39,400 --> 00:57:43,920 Speaker 1: couple of times over the past years that have cornered 922 00:57:44,160 --> 00:57:48,680 Speaker 1: an antagonized ant eaters giant ant eaters, and guess who 923 00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:53,920 Speaker 1: lost The hunters The ant eaters killed them because they 924 00:57:54,080 --> 00:57:56,480 Speaker 1: are big enough and they have big enough clause that 925 00:57:56,560 --> 00:58:01,200 Speaker 1: if they do land the lucky strike your how stupid human. 926 00:58:01,520 --> 00:58:04,200 Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, it kind of makes you wonder why 927 00:58:04,280 --> 00:58:06,640 Speaker 1: you would do that, not just because of the danger obviously, 928 00:58:06,760 --> 00:58:09,440 Speaker 1: but just because you're more on, You're more on in 929 00:58:09,520 --> 00:58:11,960 Speaker 1: your jerk. But yeah, I mean, maybe they just figured 930 00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:14,720 Speaker 1: they're so passive that we can just mess with them forever. 931 00:58:14,800 --> 00:58:18,440 Speaker 1: They're never gonna lash out of Well. One thing, one 932 00:58:18,520 --> 00:58:22,840 Speaker 1: thing that I also wonder is the time of year 933 00:58:23,560 --> 00:58:28,240 Speaker 1: that most of these interactions are happening. And I was 934 00:58:28,280 --> 00:58:32,120 Speaker 1: going to say, more like, if on accident, somebody wandered 935 00:58:32,200 --> 00:58:35,480 Speaker 1: in between an anti eater mama and her babies and 936 00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:39,040 Speaker 1: they're going to get probably pretty aggressive or maybe wandering 937 00:58:39,120 --> 00:58:41,520 Speaker 1: between like an antiae or in a really fat, juicy 938 00:58:41,640 --> 00:58:44,040 Speaker 1: colony of ants. You know, they probably take them off too, 939 00:58:44,240 --> 00:58:47,520 Speaker 1: probably lest they probably be a little more patient to wait. 940 00:58:47,960 --> 00:58:50,360 Speaker 1: But you know, if you're standing in between pretty much 941 00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:53,280 Speaker 1: any mama and her babies, you're going to get. This 942 00:58:53,960 --> 00:58:58,240 Speaker 1: is my My direction was a bull and a cow. 943 00:58:59,320 --> 00:59:04,400 Speaker 1: He's he's going to try to quote unquote defend his territory. Well, 944 00:59:04,640 --> 00:59:07,560 Speaker 1: and I don't know how that works with to be honest, 945 00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:11,160 Speaker 1: they are such an alien creature to me. They literally 946 00:59:11,320 --> 00:59:14,360 Speaker 1: could reproduce by osmosis and I would have no idea, 947 00:59:14,640 --> 00:59:16,160 Speaker 1: and somebody could tell me that, and I would say 948 00:59:16,160 --> 00:59:18,800 Speaker 1: that sounds right, Yeah, totally. I mean, look at that 949 00:59:18,920 --> 00:59:21,800 Speaker 1: for it makes sense. They're so weird looking at the 950 00:59:21,880 --> 00:59:23,680 Speaker 1: are I mean, like I said, they're kind of cute, 951 00:59:23,720 --> 00:59:26,280 Speaker 1: but they are really freaking weird. Yeah, I would say, 952 00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:29,920 Speaker 1: just in general on this story, unless would we have 953 00:59:29,960 --> 00:59:31,840 Speaker 1: more theorious Well, the only thing that I have left 954 00:59:31,920 --> 00:59:35,880 Speaker 1: in this theory particular is that the at one point 955 00:59:35,920 --> 00:59:38,120 Speaker 1: I think I talked about this maybe I didn't, was 956 00:59:38,320 --> 00:59:42,400 Speaker 1: that the legends say that the mopping Guarry can't cross water, 957 00:59:42,920 --> 00:59:45,480 Speaker 1: that it won't cross water, which is kind of screwy 958 00:59:45,680 --> 00:59:50,160 Speaker 1: since the Amazon is lousy with waterways. Well, it turns 959 00:59:50,160 --> 00:59:53,480 Speaker 1: out the the giant ant eater loves to swim, has 960 00:59:53,560 --> 00:59:56,520 Speaker 1: no problems with it. So I mean these both say 961 00:59:56,640 --> 00:59:59,560 Speaker 1: that maybe the legend is wrong and the giant eater 962 00:59:59,640 --> 01:00:02,240 Speaker 1: isn't the critter. I don't know, but that's all I got. 963 01:00:02,840 --> 01:00:05,960 Speaker 1: I would say. In general, my feeling on this story 964 01:00:06,240 --> 01:00:11,760 Speaker 1: is that it's certainly based in truth, whether tenuously based 965 01:00:11,800 --> 01:00:15,480 Speaker 1: in truth or not. Uh, there are enough animals that 966 01:00:15,760 --> 01:00:21,160 Speaker 1: could be this animal, both in distant past as in 967 01:00:21,320 --> 01:00:26,760 Speaker 1: the giant sloth or modern yeah, or in the modern 968 01:00:26,840 --> 01:00:31,000 Speaker 1: day with a giant ant eater or some here to 969 01:00:31,160 --> 01:00:36,800 Speaker 1: with not yet discovered that's the right, some some now 970 01:00:37,720 --> 01:00:40,960 Speaker 1: as of now undiscovered creature in the Amazon, because there 971 01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:44,520 Speaker 1: are tons of them, I'm sure. Still, I just feel 972 01:00:44,840 --> 01:00:47,280 Speaker 1: that this this is kind of one of those things 973 01:00:47,360 --> 01:00:50,440 Speaker 1: where an indigenous people or lots of different groups of 974 01:00:50,480 --> 01:00:54,760 Speaker 1: indigenous people's came up with a story to not only 975 01:00:54,840 --> 01:00:57,320 Speaker 1: talk about why it's important that you only take what 976 01:00:57,440 --> 01:01:00,640 Speaker 1: you need, but also to scare the kids and also 977 01:01:00,720 --> 01:01:03,560 Speaker 1: to explain some things they maybe didn't understand, and that 978 01:01:03,760 --> 01:01:06,120 Speaker 1: legend just grew and grew and grew, and so South 979 01:01:06,160 --> 01:01:10,800 Speaker 1: America's captain planet, got it? Yeah, Joe, what's yours? Probably, 980 01:01:11,080 --> 01:01:13,080 Speaker 1: I mean all these all these stories are around. I mean, 981 01:01:13,120 --> 01:01:15,680 Speaker 1: obviously people tell stories. They like to tell stories, and 982 01:01:16,200 --> 01:01:20,360 Speaker 1: telling fictional stories is nothing new, probably, so you know, 983 01:01:20,440 --> 01:01:22,360 Speaker 1: I mean they could legends have been around for a while. 984 01:01:22,520 --> 01:01:25,880 Speaker 1: I am currently listening to Dracula. So obviously we all 985 01:01:26,040 --> 01:01:29,600 Speaker 1: love scary stories or I mean, you know, any of 986 01:01:29,680 --> 01:01:34,240 Speaker 1: the Homer stories. Yeah, and that's really really early days. 987 01:01:34,400 --> 01:01:36,560 Speaker 1: So yeah, so I mean that's what we do as 988 01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:40,440 Speaker 1: we tell stories. There was not cautionary tales. Cautionary tales, 989 01:01:40,480 --> 01:01:42,000 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, I mean that we love that kind 990 01:01:42,000 --> 01:01:44,400 Speaker 1: of a story. I mean that kind of that kind 991 01:01:44,440 --> 01:01:46,920 Speaker 1: of a story where you know, somebody gets his rightful 992 01:01:47,000 --> 01:01:49,480 Speaker 1: come up and that kind of thing, and cautionary tales, 993 01:01:49,520 --> 01:01:51,080 Speaker 1: and they they're all it's kind of in the same vein. 994 01:01:51,880 --> 01:01:54,560 Speaker 1: Uh So, Yeah, I could totally see this whole thing 995 01:01:54,680 --> 01:01:57,400 Speaker 1: just being entirely made up of full cloth. Maybe it's 996 01:01:57,400 --> 01:01:59,960 Speaker 1: sort of an amalgam of various critters that have been 997 01:02:00,080 --> 01:02:04,880 Speaker 1: seen in the general Yeah, yeah, kind of just of 998 01:02:05,040 --> 01:02:07,560 Speaker 1: the we didn't wait around, and it made a bunch 999 01:02:07,600 --> 01:02:09,960 Speaker 1: of smells, and it made a bunch of rucks, and 1000 01:02:10,040 --> 01:02:12,200 Speaker 1: you saw bits and pieces, and so you just in 1001 01:02:12,280 --> 01:02:16,040 Speaker 1: your mind you glue these three things together and suddenly 1002 01:02:16,120 --> 01:02:19,040 Speaker 1: new faery giant skunk. Yeah, I'm gonna say there are 1003 01:02:19,080 --> 01:02:21,600 Speaker 1: actually their animals out there. Beside the giant skunk. There's 1004 01:02:21,640 --> 01:02:26,480 Speaker 1: a stink badger of Southeast Asia. And you know another 1005 01:02:26,760 --> 01:02:30,120 Speaker 1: something else that can project a hideous, horrible smell, although 1006 01:02:30,160 --> 01:02:32,960 Speaker 1: generally it seems to be a really small skape. Yeah, 1007 01:02:33,040 --> 01:02:36,000 Speaker 1: that skunk, but it seems like really small creatures kind 1008 01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:38,920 Speaker 1: of need to have that particular defense against the people 1009 01:02:38,960 --> 01:02:41,880 Speaker 1: to use it as a defense. Yeah, totally. Where we're huge, 1010 01:02:41,960 --> 01:02:45,160 Speaker 1: you don't really need that. But what's to say that, Well, 1011 01:02:45,200 --> 01:02:46,960 Speaker 1: I was going to say, what's to say that this 1012 01:02:47,160 --> 01:02:51,160 Speaker 1: animal isn't the natural predator of say the skunk. I 1013 01:02:51,240 --> 01:02:54,200 Speaker 1: think it's sprayed a lot. Well, they just get sprayed 1014 01:02:54,240 --> 01:02:56,400 Speaker 1: a lot for all the skunks they're killing because they 1015 01:02:56,440 --> 01:02:59,200 Speaker 1: have no sense of smell, right, so that's evolved for them. 1016 01:02:59,280 --> 01:03:02,160 Speaker 1: They don't care. They're just killing all of these stink 1017 01:03:02,200 --> 01:03:06,280 Speaker 1: animals and it's there for is just so full of 1018 01:03:06,440 --> 01:03:09,680 Speaker 1: the years and years of stink. Okay, I could be 1019 01:03:09,720 --> 01:03:13,160 Speaker 1: able by that. I you know, I want to say 1020 01:03:13,400 --> 01:03:17,240 Speaker 1: that it is just it is a reason that you know, 1021 01:03:17,280 --> 01:03:20,640 Speaker 1: it's it's stinky Ted with his dreads which Joe started 1022 01:03:20,720 --> 01:03:25,760 Speaker 1: us a rhyming mood from earlier tonight apparently, But yeah, 1023 01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:28,760 Speaker 1: I I really I don't think. I don't think the 1024 01:03:28,800 --> 01:03:34,080 Speaker 1: mop and guari is a current contemporary creature. I will 1025 01:03:34,120 --> 01:03:36,120 Speaker 1: call it a cryptod because I think that it may 1026 01:03:36,200 --> 01:03:40,520 Speaker 1: have been an unknown animal in the past in you know, 1027 01:03:40,600 --> 01:03:43,640 Speaker 1: the scale that it's described at. I don't think that 1028 01:03:43,760 --> 01:03:47,560 Speaker 1: it's the megatherium o megafauna like we had in the past. 1029 01:03:47,800 --> 01:03:50,240 Speaker 1: I think it might have been some scale down version 1030 01:03:50,320 --> 01:03:52,440 Speaker 1: that is no more that. That's really what I think 1031 01:03:52,760 --> 01:03:57,120 Speaker 1: until Or and his team come back with better data, 1032 01:03:57,160 --> 01:04:02,640 Speaker 1: because remember they they've been collecting samples from people for years. 1033 01:04:03,040 --> 01:04:06,320 Speaker 1: People have been turning in uh scat samples and hair 1034 01:04:06,480 --> 01:04:09,320 Speaker 1: samples saying I think that this was the mopping g 1035 01:04:09,360 --> 01:04:12,840 Speaker 1: warri and every time they tested it turns out to 1036 01:04:12,920 --> 01:04:16,520 Speaker 1: be some other animals, some kind of monkey or an 1037 01:04:16,600 --> 01:04:20,840 Speaker 1: ant eater or some other animal that's indigenous to the area. 1038 01:04:20,960 --> 01:04:25,840 Speaker 1: So so far they literally have squat to show. So 1039 01:04:25,960 --> 01:04:28,400 Speaker 1: I really, unfortunately I think that I don't think that 1040 01:04:28,680 --> 01:04:33,800 Speaker 1: it's it's a real thing anymore. Um, they've you've we've 1041 01:04:33,840 --> 01:04:36,120 Speaker 1: over lefted the area. Actually, what I said, it's just 1042 01:04:36,240 --> 01:04:39,240 Speaker 1: the local Indians pulling the white man's leg too. You know, 1043 01:04:39,520 --> 01:04:42,760 Speaker 1: I almost wrote that. I'm glad you brought that up 1044 01:04:42,800 --> 01:04:45,400 Speaker 1: because I put that in there earlier, the fact that, 1045 01:04:45,680 --> 01:04:49,480 Speaker 1: you know, the Europeans showed up and the locals said, oh, 1046 01:04:49,600 --> 01:04:53,440 Speaker 1: by the way, there's this big, starty, smelly, stinky, gross 1047 01:04:53,600 --> 01:04:55,760 Speaker 1: things out there, and that might have been their way 1048 01:04:55,800 --> 01:05:00,400 Speaker 1: to try to protect what they considered a precious item, 1049 01:05:00,720 --> 01:05:05,160 Speaker 1: whether it be gold or plants or pigs or literally 1050 01:05:05,720 --> 01:05:09,040 Speaker 1: the forests. Yeah, you really, actually just I could even 1051 01:05:09,080 --> 01:05:10,640 Speaker 1: see like that. It's not even so much of that 1052 01:05:10,720 --> 01:05:12,800 Speaker 1: motivation as you have these people showing up. The next thing, 1053 01:05:12,840 --> 01:05:15,800 Speaker 1: you know, you get these really credulous people from universities. 1054 01:05:15,800 --> 01:05:18,760 Speaker 1: It's anthropologist types.
