Talk:Skunk ape

message: "Orangutans in captivity test higher on cognitive skills tests than all other hominids save man"
while i do not deny gorillas are the least intelligent great ape, what about chimps or bonobos?

thread_title:  NOT a Bigfoot 

message: The skunk ape is no longer a myth. He has been caught and caged by three younge men in eastern Idaho. The MPC manged to subdue the raging beast with bare hands and hand made weaponds. This beast will be tamed and trained to perform everyday tasks. ex. mowing the lawn, washing cars, and moving large boxes.
Someone can move that to humourous if they please --68.161.112.187 05:04, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  REMOVE THIS. 

message: I've heard that this is in effect because some rich shits had seen it. IF that was "you or I" that had seen and reported it, they'd say "We're full of shit!". Instead, some rich shits had seen one, and want it taken down. To collect, it HAS to be DEAD. Of course, that had taken place in Florida. I had seen this in some rag long ago. 65.163.112.128 (talk) 03:52, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Alleged $1M Bounty

message: This article is very scrappy. Lots of bits chucked in any old where, unsupported assertions, POVs, OR etc. It needs a lot of work to get up to scratch (if you will). Totnesmartin 14:02, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  State of the article 

message: New bit in ape section: "Though this seems unlikely due to the reported size of the creature." The article doesn't actually say how big the skunk ape is. So, do tell, someone. Totnesmartin 15:26, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: When dealing with urban myth our task is to accurately report on the myth. If the myth holds that the creature is 7ft tall and weights 300lb, then that is what we should report. Whether the creature actually exists is another matter, which is why this is a cryptozoology entry and not a zoology entry. - perfectblue 10:21, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

message: How can police have gone to the house of the sender of the letter and photo's, if that sender was, as claimed, anonymous?
:Yeah sounds weird. Perhaps the police know who she is, but at her request they didn't reveal her identity. The story should probably be confirmed though. Cyberia23 (talk) 03:25, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

message: The capitalisation "Skunk ape" seems illogical and wrong: in everyday English one would expect "skunk ape". Google Books results mostly give both words proper case ("Skunk Ape"), however. Equinox ◑ 23:14, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
