Hairy Humanoids

Beasts of the World, Volume 1

De: Andy McGrath

Narrado por: Johnathan Welsh

Beasts of the World is a seven-part series which seeks to investigate the histories, evidence, and common theories surrounding the numerous cryptid creatures that have been reported around the globe.

In volume one, Hairy Humanoids, we examine the diverse collection of hairy, bipedal, manlike monsters that are believed to inhabit the world’s remote and lonely regions and ask the question—do they represent a single species, or could there be other lesser-known varieties of Wildmen, yet to be revealed?

This book seeks to classify some of these distinct kinds and proposes a separation (even when two or more "types" or "species" appear to be sharing a similar geographic area) based upon key physiological and behavioral differences. And so, we find that the Man-Ape Bigfoot of the Pacific Northwest, is something quite different from the Wildman Almasti of the Caucuses Mountains, and that the Relict Ape, known as the Yeti, is more akin to the Florida Skunk Ape than the Chinese Yeren.

Are these mysterious monsters surviving Gigantopithecus, extant Neanderthals, undiscovered apes, hidden tribes, or simply folklore and fable, repackaged for the modern world?

Join me as I go in search of these Hairy Humanoids and the many yet-to-be-discovered Beasts of the World.
