In their words

  • Forth says some paleoanthropologists and biologists find his arguments credible privately but won't say so in print, partly over funding concerns.

    “I know paleoanthropologists, biologists as well, who find my arguments credible. But it's very interesting, you know, they'll never say so in print”

  • Forth contrasts Flores villagers, who gain nothing from reporting sightings, with North American Bigfoot claimants who can seek fame.

    “nobody on Flores thinks they're going to become famous by telling me what they've seen, whatever it may have been”

  • Forth states that he does not find Bigfoot credible and has said so in print, considering the Flores accounts far stronger due to fossil evidence.

    “No, I don't find Bigfoot credible. And again, I've said so in print in an earlier book”
