Feral Primates In America!

January 1, 2025 Chester Moore Leave a comment

In a new ideo, we dive into a fascinating theory: could feral primates in America—such as escaped or thriving populations of orangutans, chimpanzees, or other apes—be behind some Skunk Ape and Bigfoot sightings?

Watch our mini documentary on feral primates in America.

We present:

*Verified photos of feral primates thriving in the wild.

*A mysterious roadkill photo from Louisiana that raises more questions than answers.

*Eyewitness reports of baboon-like creatures spotted in Texas and Louisiana.

This video explores the possibility that some Skunk Ape and Bigfoot-like reports could stem from encounters with escaped or feral apes.

Could these sightings explain some of the more ape-like descriptions of these elusive creatures? Watch and decide for yourself!

While we don’t think feral apes are the answer to Bigfoot, this video explores the possibility that some Skunk Ape and Bigfoot-like reports could stem from encounters with escaped or feral apes.

Presenting On Feral Apes & Primates This Weekend!

August 5, 2024 Chester Moore Leave a comment

I”m exciited to be speaking at the Tennessee Wildman & Cryptid Con this weekend.

For those of you who have been following my research, you know that I have a deep interest in feral apes and primates.

I’ve long believed that these creatures play a much bigger role in the cryptozoological narrative than they’ve been given credit for.

At the conference, I’ll be diving into the evidence that suggests these primates are not only real but that they have exist in America for much longer than we might think. I’ll explore historical accounts, modern-day sightings, and the biological plausibility of such creatures surviving in the wild. My goal is to shed light on how these feral apes could be the missing link in our understanding of unusual sightings.

My good friend Randy Hutchings puts on a great event and has been kind enough to help a very special family connected to our Wild Wishes® program come to his events.

Here are the details for my talk and the event:

Event: Tennessee Wildman & Cryptid Con 2024
When: Aug. 10 (9 a.m.-5 p.m.)
Where: Milner Recreation Center, 500 Garfield Street, McMinnville, TN 37110

Get your tickets and more event details here!

I hope to see you there and look forward to diving into this intriguing topic together!

Feral Monkeys And Apes In America

January 17, 2024 Chester Moore Leave a comment

Greg Smith positioned himself against a tall oak in the lonesome Louisiana wilderness in hopes of bagging a mess of squirrels for dinner.

This particular set of woods was loaded with them and he hoped as daylight cracked, his position would give him a good shot at success.

As the line peaked through the trees, he heard a few squirrels chattering in the distance but didn’t see any near him. He sat there for nearly an hour before deciding to move.

And just as he began to get up, he saw something.

What he described as a 3 foot plus tall monkey walked in an opening in the brush in front of him. At first he only saw the tail moving and then as it moved, the creature came in for a full view.

It moved at a moderate pace through the forest and then disappeared.

A reader submitted feral monkey photo from near Dilley, TX. There is a population of Japanese macaques in the area that are frequently seen by outdoors lovers.

He described the animal as grayish-brown and very furry.

In Texas near the town of Dilley is a feral population of Japanese macaques that have been there since the 1970s and there are verified monkeys living in southern Florida.

Could there be feral monkeys and perhaps even apes living in the United States?
