That first video has a person with a Reconyx brand camera. The model is of the RapidFire series which has been out of production for many years. Too bad they don't use up to date video teasers. Why waste time with 'Coast to Coast'? C-C is a disinformation site. I have never listened to C-C. Years ago, C-C did episodes about buried Sasquatch bodies. The radio actor was named 'Bugs' or 'Buggs'. Something like that. The stories about the buried bodies went on and on. It was a hoax. C--C horse feathers, then and now. When new experts show up, I assume that their retirement monies are insufficient so they jump on the entertainment band wagon to make a few bucks.

This was something I was gonna mention that you don't often see brought up with H.floresiensis, and that is that Flores is one of the few islands Komodo dragons live on. This would make life a good deal more hazardous for hominids 3-4' tall. Especially if you both are hunting the insular pigmy elephants komodo dragons are thought to evolved to eat, and you are the smaller of the two predators still around when the pachiderms went extinct! While the video above mentions komodo dragon ancestors that were twice the size or more of the current species, I'm not sure that Megalania prisca made it that far north from Australia, and that's pretty much the only larger species known from that region. Nevertheless, komodo dragons have little reluctance going after regular sized people, in line with their ambush style of hunting, and I can't see much reason why they wouldn't go after smaller versions, especially once the elephants were hunted out. And just as described in Jurassic park, you're still alive when they start to eat you.... As someone who keeps smaller species of monitor lizards(5-6') I can attest to the fact that I wouldn't be too keen to live on an island with a species that gets three times as long as I am tall, as they take the whole "ahyup, I'm a ruthless predator" thing altogether seriously, and are well equipped to carry out such deeds.

I'm around Timmins area

After 2 rainy, wet weekends in a row, we finally got some sunshine! I talked my son and his girlfriend into joining me for a bear/cougar/sasquatch outing for the day, to a location a bit further afield than my usual day trips. They were both eager to get out too, so we headed out at about 9 Saturday morning, for a 2 hour drive to the mountains a little SE of Boston Bar, in the Fraser Canyon region. The FSR system I targeted crosses the mountain range between the Canyon Hwy and the Coquihalla Hwy, and I had driven the route last fall, just before the snow got too deep to get through the pass. When we reached the turnoff to the FSR, there was a sign posted stating that the heavy storms had cut the road, making the full crossing impossible, but we headed up anyway, to see how far we could get. That turned out to be about 12 km in, where there was a locked gate to keep the public out of the work area. Since we had passed numerous side branches on the way in, we back tracked and explored several of them, leading to some interesting views, and lots of game sign. There was deer, bear, and elk scat, deer and elk tracks, and one pretty mulie doe who posed for us in the middle of the road. One power line trail led to a dead end at a very rugged cliff above a creek far below. After a late lunch in camp chairs in the sunshine and warm breeze, we called it a day, as the drive back out to pavement, and then 2 hours home would get us back in time for a late dinner. The trip totalled 320 km (186 mi), and used up $100 of our $2.10/L gas, but the scenery and family time were well worth it.
