The Mystery of the Malaysia Nature Park Bigfoot by Lim Yu Soon

The Orang Asli tribes in Johor believe in a mystery creature that they called Hantu Jarang Gigi. According to Legends, this creature is about 12 foot tall, body is full of hair, long arms and stout legs and move
speedily.

In 2005 December, Vincent Chow, an adviser to Johor Malaysia Nature Society discover big footprints as long as 17 inches in the Johor jungle. He believe that the 248 million year old forest hold a key to the
human evolution.

Vincent Chow stirred up the interest of media and experts in the Johor bigfoot.

In May this year, many local and foreign media, through arrangement of the Johor government, went for an expedition to the Johor government, but unfortunately could not find anything.

Johor Bigfoot Editoral Committee cum coordinator Lee Khai Shun expressed that there are many sightings of Bigfoot in Johor, and their stories tallied, whether it is in Johor southern most Panti, middle Kahang.

This made him believe in Bigfoot. The jungle logging must have made the Bigfoot to migrate in search of food.

The Johor Wildlife Protection Society Wei Poh Chin has been following the Johor Bigfoot for 17 years. He said that while working in Pengkalan Hulu Perak at that time, he made contact with the communist guerilla and knew about the existence of Bigfoot from them.

He stayed in the jungle for long period of time as he wanted to observe the activity of the Bigfoot and in Peninsular North Hua Hua Ling, Pengkalan Hulu Perak and Southern Johor he personally saw Bigfoot.
He said that the Bigfoot can be big or small, the big ones can reach 9 – 12 feet tall, there are male and females and even juveniles.

He said that the Bigfoot has intelligence and know how to use wood as weapon. Other than the fact that they do not have organisational ability, their behaviour is quite similar to humans.

He said, “Bigfoot know how to create a vortex in the shallow river to make the fish dizzy and catch them. Although they ate live fish, but they don’t like blood and will wash clean before eating.
Also they will tuck the fish under the arms. They like to eat fruits as well as wild boar.

But as there are many skeptics including the state government and Johor Regent, who believe that the Bigfoot are remnants of the 20 orangutans released by his grandfather earlier, Wei Poh Chin recently handed over 14 photographs to the Johor Sultan and the Chief Minister, hoping that they will do some action to protect these endangered Bigfoot. Four photos will be released in the upcoming book (Johor Bigfoot). If these photos are certified to be true, then it will be the first time in the world that close up clear shots of Bigfoot are available.

“Johor Bigfoot” Editorial Committee Lee Khai Shun told this Chinese Newsweekly that from the photos, Bigfoot is indeed a large creature, somewhere in between ape and man. A photo showing a male adult
Bigfoot, squatting down, hand holding a stone, deep in thought. The male bigfoot has very long and thick arms, and when he squatted down, his scrotum touches the ground. The other photo shows a female bigfoot with an angry face, big breasts and a hairy body.

But Wei Poh Chin refused to say where, when and who toke the pictures of the bigfoot, resulting in many skeptisim of the pictures.

Botara University Darlan said that as there is no view of the background to the Bigfoot pictures, and therefore it is not known it is taken in the jungle or not. Also there are comments from some people that it is unusual for the Bigfoot in the close up photo taken to be in a still mode and full of expression.

But palaeoanthropologist Sean Ang thinks otherwise as there are no closeup photos of Bigfoot breasts and scrotum in the world and that the photos are probably real. He said that is is not easy to imitate the
squatting posture with stone in hand and also red eyes. If allowed by the state government, Sean would invite experts to examine the pictures.

Darlan also expressed that the Johor jungle is extensive and is abundance of food and suitable for existence for Bigfoot. Darlan has followed the expedition below to find Bigfoot although he found only big
footprints.

But from the length of the bigfoot prints, he estimated that the bigfoot is as tall as 9 – 12 feet and as heavy as 365 – 400 kgs. He thinks to see Bigfoot, you would need a long period of time to adapt to the jungle, and not short expedition of few days.

Sean Ang is very interested in Bigfoot after being invited by Vincent Chow. He said from the hair samples and the footprints, the Bigfoot should be a hominid and not ape or other animals, most likely a Homo
erectus. Vincent Chow believe that the Johor Bigfoot could be remnants of Homo erectus in Malaysia from their migration from China / Indonesia..

Sean and Chow will publish their research in an international journal later on. In the meantime they have setup a website johorhominid.org to let bigfoot enthusiants and scientists to discuss about bigfoot.

Wei Poh Chin is more concerned about protection of Johor Bigfoot and interference from people who will hunt and kill Bigfoot.

Like The China Wildman, or the Himalayan Yeti, Johor Bigfoot all share a few similarities : big, hairy and agile. But till now, we do not have sufficient proof that they exist. Perhaps Johor Bigfoot woulld be like other Bigfoots in other parts of the world, continuing to be a mystery for generations and generations
