New Straits Times - Malaysia News Online: "The Johor National Parks Corporation is willing to collaborate with anyone wanting to carry out a study to verify the existence of 'Bigfoot' in Johor.
Its director, Hashim Yusoff, said today there was a need for a scientific study to determine once and for all if such a creature existed in Johor.

Without dismissing the claims of sightings of 'Bigfoot', he said his staff had found no physical evidence of the presence of 'Bigfoot' either in the Endau-Rompin National Park or the Tanjung Piai National Park.

Sightings of hairy creatures said to be about three metres tall have trickled in over the years, especially from along the forest spine connecting Endau Rompin, Kota Tinggi and Tanjung Piai.

In the latest sighting, a fish researcher from the Johor branch of the Malaysian Nature Society claimed he spotted 'Bigfoot' footprints at a swamp near Sungai Sedili in Kampung Mawai, Kota Tinggi.

MNS adviser Vincent Chow said there had also been numerous 'Bigfoot' sightings by villagers, who refer to the creature as hantu jarang gigi (snaggle-toothed ghost).

Villagers claimed they were usually seen during the monsoon and fruiting seasons, sometimes raiding orchards but not harming anyone.

Chow said, as a child, he had joined his father on search expeditions whenever a sighting of the creature was reported.





EVIDENCE: A footprint reportedly left by at a swamp in Kampung Mawai near Kota Tinggi recently.

'These creatures could be trapped in a time warp and have not evolved like other animals,' he said. 'Forced to breed among themselves, they have not changed much over the ages and are greatly reduced in numbers.'
