I don't buy Denisovan tool usage as a 100% established fact. I understand that it may be the current thinking, but it's based on some assumptions. Like I mentioned before, the sites that Denisovan "tools" have been found at were also occupied by Neanderthals and Homo Sapiens and science can't say with absolute certainty that Denisovans made those tools. Many scientists are very quick to assign tool usage by any newly-discovered "homo" species. Maybe too quick. I seem to recall reading an article in the recent past where one group of scientists discovered "tools" in a cave habituated by a hominid group (can't remember which one) only to have another group of scientists brand them "interesting looking rocks, but likely not tools." I'm not saying Denisovans didn't make tools, jewelry, etc. Perhaps some of them did. Perhaps there were groups isolated from other Denisovan groups who didn't. The fossil record is still too tiny to make too many assumptions.

The "official" record of feral people seems to be individual cases. HOWEVER, sightings and stories of feral GROUPS of individuals are persistent, particularly in the Smoky Mountains region. I seem to recall even reading some reasonably credible reports from park-official types. Some of these reports seem to also mirror Bigfoot sightings. The mythology in the area claims that these feral-types are descendants of people who once settled in the area and were displaced by the creation of the National Park. They refused to leave the area and have to hide. I'm not sure where I stand yet on feral people, but I certainly don't discount the possibility. I think we've seen some recent CRAZY discoveries in the world of anthropology. I believe that most human-type species are capable of things we can't even imagine. A big and complex brain that's good at making tools, ALSO may be good at being the supreme ninja of the forest and appearing as a "ghost" to other human-types.

Our best technology can’t even get a simple picture of it. Maybe it’s a ghost.

I believe that this is EXACTLY the argument being made. It's NOT that a theoretical large tribe of Denisovans that had been using tools for thousands of years just collectively voted that it was better for their survival to stop tool use cold-turkey. It's that a very early, isolated group of them never fully-adopted tool use (or hadn't developed it to the level of others), and because of their isolation developed other methods of survival. It also helped them to "avoid" other human-species groups which worked for them.

I really want to visit Washington state!!! Maybe for a few months.... Thing is, I am in the UK!

Pretty impressive. No wonder there are so few of them, and that explains (at least to me) why I found it's sign in California and never in Alaska.

No, I didn't. I will agree, however, that there is no evidence of sasquatch tool making. And since Dragon Man was not found with tools, he didn't't make them, either. Fair? I'm talking about sasquatches. My DNA is half sub-Saharan African, so I'm more sapiens than you, and less Neanderthal. But I often wish I was feral.

In the fossil record, they don't exist, because there's nothing in a bone that proves feral. But there are statistically feral Sapiens out there, on every continent, right now.

No. I don't know how their species evolved. I'm just confident that (1) they existed, (2) they still exist, and (3) they're probably "human".

But at some point cultural drift turns into real morphology problems. I am willing to accept small variations. Like we forgot to make bows and arrows so we went back to spears. But not cooking food after your species has adapted to it biologically speaking? Or sleeping on the ground in snow when your ancestors built fires and took shelter? I don’t think it’s very realistic in the Congo or Borneo. And I think it’s suicidal in Alaska or Siberia. Our Homo ancestors evolved chasing down game on the Serengeti. We sweat in the noon day sun. That’s our superpower. In order to leave Africa we had to get crafty. Homo Heidelbergensis had hide scrapers. They were making clothes. They had fires. They lived in caves. Basically we are talking about a Sub Arctic Mountain Gorilla that’s bipedal and hunts with its two hands only. It doesn’t use fire. It doesn’t make stone tools. It doesn’t need caves to survive. And because it doesn’t hibernate like a Bear? It’s taking the brunt of Mother Nature 12 months out of the year. But it’s also intelligent enough that it stays hidden, bury its dead and has never ate bananas at a zoo in front of a audience. Does anyone have a sliding scale for ancient hominins or hominids fossil record?

Perhaps 'reverse evolution' is not exactly the correct term, however, consider this: 'Isolated Relic Populations: As modern humans spread across Asia, small pockets of Denisovans may have been pushed into remote mountains, dense forests, or isolated islands. Living cut off from larger groups, these isolated bands might have experienced changes in behavior or a loss of complex toolmaking skills simply due to smaller group sizes—a phenomenon anthropologists call cultural drift.'

Something was crawling toward her horses. Then it stood up. Watching from her Oklahoma home around midnight, Carrie noticed a small, dark shape creeping through the pasture. It moved almost flat against the ground. When it rose to its feet, she estimated it stood nine to ten feet tall. In this episode of Bigfoot Society, Carrie shares that encounter alongside a daylight sighting with her young niece and strange chattering that followed her boat along a riverbank. An Oregon log-truck driver also describes what happened after he imitated a Bigfoot call above Myrtle Point: the forest fell silent, grunts approached, and trees began swaying. Other callers recount a childhood encounter in Maine and reported Sasquatch activity inside an Oklahoma campground. What was moving through Carrie’s pasture—and why was it approaching her horses that way? Listen to the witnesses describe what they experienced.

There must be a food source, maybe small fish etc.

You have already said that Sasquatch and its ancestors never used tools. So Denisovans are off the table. And I would be more than happy to hear your theory on what Hominin you are talking about. Most of us do. Only sub Saharan Africans are not hybridized with either Neanderthals or Denisovans.

In the great course of things, and especially in the fossil record, feral probably don't leave a mark.

Then you agree they are not Denisovans? Again you’re talking about individuals. We are talking through satellites in space. So I am assuming you’re not feral either. And so is 99.9 % of humanity. My light switch flipped on other wise I would be trying to talk to you by smoke signals.

Correct. We're talking about an incredibly rare species of human. Not individual, but certainly not a society. And its appears they like it that way. I don't think it's an earlier branch of hominid. I think it's the evolved species of a branch of hominin. Not all of us. Some of us do.

You're reversing evolution. If these creatures exist, they never used tools. Ever. There are a lot of people out there who do things that you may never even want to do. You might even dislike the way they do things. Why doesn't your light switch on? Because you don't want it to.

My sneaking suspicion is that if they could have they would have. As modern humans have both Neanderthal and Denisovan DNA in us.

As an individual yes. But we are not talking about an abandoned Homo Sapiens child being raised by wolves. As a species? Of course as you go back in time the more feral we become. Which is why I think Bigfoot is an earlier branch of hominid. But this isn’t by choice or a cruel twist of fate.
