Funded? Oh wow. Would you mind showing some credentials? Shouldn't be too hard. (citation of something you've published is good enough)
edit: I'm still skeptical because
1) you don't sound professional just from your posts
2) I think that if you "sank a large amount of money...into travelling halfway around the world to find someone is not telling the truth" you probably should do some more research with the area and locals before you use up all your funding. I mean, it just sounds like you go based on the words of only a few people, almost on impulse.
3) You probably shouldn't be disappointed, but rather be ok with disproving any rumors. At least people don't have to wonder about it anymore. Research isn't always about finding what you want or hope to find - it almost never works that way. Sometimes, there is the satisfaction of falsifying what might've been a widespread theory/hypothesis. The fact that you expected something out of this is very questionable.
edit: I'm not trying to stomp out on you for fun, I'm being pretty serious here - just want some honest words from ya.

I'm not going on with this and start a big fight here. You want honest words there on the page in front of you. You can drop it, alright. I put my life into Cryptozoology and am proud of the fact I am searching for these things. But why the hell would I want to lie? It just intrests me why would I want to lie to people I don't know and proberlay never meet in my lifetime and waht would I gain from it? Respect? No, I have plenty of respect. For the fun of it? Hell no! Lets just drop this and continue on the subject of Cryptids. Which is what were spose to be discussing, lets just leave it that. ay?

On the topic of Cryptids, I will tell you all an intresting fact. Alot of the calls I get from the United States looking for someone to investigate an encounter or to study the scene or look for evdence something unexplanible was there are.... Chupucabra sightings and seroiusly, I'm not intrested in the Chupucabra, but it is still an intresting fact!

Move along.

I'm going to pretend I never read that. Is there anything intresting on the subject of Cryptids we can discuss? For me there is alot, but you guys would never find what I find intresting about Cryptids. Me and Dimensional Spyro (Who has given up on this forum, now) both used to go out searching or speaking to a witness about a Dogman in thier backyard, it was fun, good times. But I geuss, other things are more important for him. And it kinda makes me feel kinda sad that those days will never repeat and it might not happen again.

And bmah, I've given up. In trying to covince you. I tried. And it's your opinion and I see that's alright. But don't make a big fuss about it. I'm not even going to read any posts you throw at me. Because I find it rude and rather annoying. What so you poured your heart and soul into a job that you loved and someone said that you didn't do that job and was making half of the world laugh at you, thinking you were lying? Rude.

But I am a man. And I have things to do and am getting tired of this. And the paperwork you sometimes have to do when you have finacial problems. Anything to talk about?

Well as soon as there are signs that the academic community studies the subject more seriously, I'll retract my current opinion on it. But for now, good luck trying to find proper funding for cryptozoology lol.

It would be nice if the academic comminuity took it seriously, but hey what is one person going to do?

It's not rude that I'm asking a question that you're trying to avoid answering. If you don't know, just say so - don't have to beat the bush. Start with something simple.

Post something from your finds. Tell us something about one of your trips. You say that you do all these things, but give an example. You need to say something to start somewhere. I don't know why you keep avoiding this. How about the Lake Champlain trip? When did you go, why were you interested, and more impotantly for now, if you got funded, who payed the costs and supported your study. What did you find anyways? Success? Evidence?

Well, I have one intrestring story.

When I ahd just gotten into and started this after leaving school and finished some courses and uni. I and Dimesional Spyro ( I'll call him DS from now on) went to Wisconsin ( I can't spell it) to search for the Dogman*. Really, we enjoyed the time there. But what caught my eye was that this man was living near a large forestry area where lots of Dogman sightings had been reported. I met up with the dude and since I was desparite for some conclusive evidence on the creature, I asked to interview him. He agreed. I asked him a few questions and he answeared them all. That is I asked one last question "Have any of your Cattle have gone missing this week?" He expalined that a small number of his cattle dissapered that week.

That was evidence enough soemthing was there. I knew it. Later, though soemthing really took the cake. I was driving down the road ready to come forward to the man and ask if I was allowed to track the cows that had dissapered....when I saw it. For a brief second. I was scared *bleep* less. The thing all I remember was something, a wolf but bipedal. But it ran away. Well not really. It stumbled away like someone drunk it was gone into the bushy area and the forestry before I knew it.

And that was as conclusive evidence I am sure I will ever find. I returned to the spot and found nothing left marked that it was there. But what was really scary, was that it looked scarec itself as if I was danger, which I muswell have been to them. We are just starting understand the world around us. No-one can tell me it dosen't exisit. I know what I saw that day and nither was it humon nor was a wolf.

Hey SpyroDarkdude01,
Have you heard of the Chupacabra and the dead carcasses discovered in Texas? Like the rancher who has the carcass of this odd animal she claims is the Chupacabra. That mystery will forever haunt me, that and the Jersey Devil.

I myself find the Chupucabra boring, and intresting at the same time time. DS had an intrest in it. But over time in my free time, I have speculated some reasons of how the chupucabra got there and more importantly, what it is.

1. It is quite simply an alien. Nuff said.
1 a. It's smarter than people and actually built a ship and flew here but I doubt since most of them are running across roads oblivous to cars coming straight at them. Wouldn't they have roads on thier planet, and anyway something moving that fast, coming straight at you, I think I would have enough brains to get out of the way!!!

2. An evoulutrionary throwback.
3. Something from prehistoric times brought to the present by a time anomilie, eg. Time slip
4. An animal. Nuff said.
5. Something entirley different, just a new species of cougar or dog-cat hybrid.

I like No. 4 the most, it's probaly the most logical explanation. But 2 and 5 could also be a really good explanations, I'd like to go with the Dog-Cat hybrid thing, sounds cool. But I'm vaguely interested. I'm more intrested in primates because thier a little more realistic than a flying horse and vampire dog thing.

Some dude, sent me an E-mail once and said he found a piece of dog claw. He sent it to me and it look more like Feral canine it went to the lab and a year later, it came back with the biologist stunned, there was nothing like it, it didn't match up with anything else on the planet but it said it was closely related to Canine specimens. So, if it exsists or not, it's still intresting.
