What Are These Large Flying Creatures

I entirely customary media investigate in proposal to a few of the cryptid sightings I bring reported in southwest Florida...anonymous creatures described at Precipitous Short-Snouted Snake-Like Creature - Ft. Myers, FL - 1/20/2012 and Absurd Encounters: Southwest Florida. The cram focused on an 'Ahool' encounter in Lee District, Florida. During is the email that was forwarded to me:Hi - I entirely had an encounter later than a bird-like beast but I attach importance to it wasn't a bird - it looked to be a flying tenant. I attach importance to it sounds particular and rowdy but I attach importance to what I saw. Very well here's the disgusting story. On Feb, 5th in circles 11:30pm my dreary sister and her group were plunder me, my undersized sister, my mom and my two nieces to eat at Denny's in a present town (Refuge Myers, FL). Very well as we were pouring on I75 out of nowhere as the crow flies the windshield I see a tenant later than wings fly over our car. It went over two mature uphold and forth. I got a distinguished noise - it looked think a tenant later than wings but moreover once more it anyway looked think a pterodactyl (pterosaur). My brother-in-law anyway saw it and locate later than me. He says it was not a bird! Very well that was my encounter later than the beast.My nephew anyway witnessed a person-like beast. He was walking to his girlfriend's house late at night and by her neighbor's house give are a few leaves. He aimed he saw a tenant / fashion station in the leaves looking at him. He asked his girlfriend if she anyway saw it - she aimed that its always give. He moreover started to walk closer to get a higher prospect of it equally the beast jumped off the tree onto his girlfriend's neighbors defense causing it to appearance rattling loop. The dogs started barking and moreover the beast flew off in front line off his eyes. It moreover ran happening his girlfiend's house scared it would elaborate uphold but it didn't. My nephew's encounter happened in Lehigh Acres, FL a brace of existence before my encounter happened! We bring no clue as to what it is or why it would be shadowing us?! It is very motive boggling!The "AHOOL" is a flying cryptid, almost certainly a giant bat, or by other accounts, a energetic pterosaur or flying monkey. Named for its representative call A-hoooool, it is aimed to live in the innermost rainforests of Java. It is described as having a monkey/ape-like head later than famous gloomy eyes, famous claws on its forearms (concerning the volume of an child), and a almost all coated in opaque fur. Probably the most full of character and mind-boggling quantity is that it is aimed to bring a wingspan of 3 m (10 ft). This is come close to twofold as desire as the leading (set) bat in the world, the household flying fox. - "Coleman, Loren & Clark, Jerome - Cryptozoology A To Z: The Register of Loch Monsters, Sasquatch, Chupacabras, and Added Totally Mysteries of Ecosystem"Give to is a faithful type of flying cryptid in central Europe called the 'Alp' as described at In Run through of the Alp and Prone Alp Sightings in Austria. As well, Pterosaur sightings bring occurred total, in the company of the Tied States. Researcher Jonathan Whitcomb has constantly acclaimed these dinosaur-like flying cryptids for over a generation. Syfy's Destination Intensity anyway shaped a portion everywhere the social gathering traveled to Java in search of the beast.The Ahool was first described by Dr. Ernest Bartels in the same way as exploring the Salak Mountains on the land mass of Java. In 1925 environmentalist Dr. Ernest Bartels, (son of ornithologist M.E.G. Bartels), was exploring a torrent on the slopes of the Salek Mountains equally a giant bat, swooped down over his head. Furthermore in 1927, in circles 11:30 pm, Dr. Ernest Bartels was laying in bed, nucleus his thatched house detailed to the Tjidjenkol Water in western Java, listening to the sounds of the a tangled web equally he sharp heard a very modern worthy coming from come close to outspoken over his hut, this loud and clear cry seemed to tell, A Hool! Grabbing his torch Dr. Bartels ran out of his hut in the option the worthy seemed to be designation. Beneath than 20 seconds future he heard it once more, a stay fresh A Hool! It was the giant bat he encountered 2 years before.Staff who bring visited the area bring questioned the conclusion relations about the bat. The relations say they bring seen it or attach importance to of it's existence and ameliorate it as they do other famous riotous plants. The villages are remote and relations do not own cameras etc, so no photos bring always been shaped.Bartels accounts of the Ahool were accepted to Ivan T. Sanderson by Bernard Heuvelmans, and Sanderson owing to that the Ahool is a form of unclassified bat. Sanderson took an take in in the Ahool since he too had a atypical encounter later than an anonymous giant bat in the Assumbo Mountains of Cameroon, in Africa. Sanderson meditation that the Ahool can be an Oriental form of the giant bat think beast he witnessed in Africa, called the Kongamato.The prevalent set bat today is the Bismark flying fox, which has a wing dub of six feet (come close to 2 metres) from wingtip to wingtip The land mass of Java, is present the flying fox's rest of New Guinea, so can it be a relative? The other theory about Ahool is that two famous earless owls exist on Java, the Blemished Wood-owl (Strix seloputo) and the Javan Wood-owl (Strix (leptogrammica) bartelsi (named after Bartels commence) being 16-20 inches (40-50 cms) desire and later than a wingspan of 4 feet (1.1meters). Although one would bring meditation Bartels would bring set what the owls looked think, like a house on fire as his commence bare one and anyway the conclusion relations would be secure later than them. Like the killing of the rain forests, if these creatures exist, they may bring been pushed to annihilation, which is a sad meditation. - "Karl P.N.
