Appreciate the understanding.
I was on a Spring Bear hunt near Green Water Lake Provincial Park north of Kelvington when I was escorted off my stand and out of the bush two evenings in a row. The second time I backed out with an arrow nocked, and stood on the road with it nocked facing the brush until the guide pulled up. I insisted on another bait the next night!
I have no doubt “dogman” reports are monkees of a slightly different head/face shape. I do have a tough time with the ones when the critter is reported to have upright ears like a wolf or german shepherd, as well as when the RP leaves no question the head was that of a canine, not just canine-like. In my experience, when humans witness something completely outside their ability to process or their belief system, they tend to “fill in the blanks” as it were, with something they can process. I suspect this is what happens when we hear accounts that are adamant they were looking at what matches a hollywood werewolf, as it wasn’t a bear, gorilla, or even what they have been told a booger should look like.
My ears always perk up when I hear a report of a monkee being hit by a motor vehicle, as I believe this is the most likely scenario for a type specimen coming to light. An 800 pound unacknowledged bipedal primate splattered all over an interstate by a now totaled 18 wheeler will be pretty much unequivocal…
