In a recent video from the YouTube channel Bigfoot Michigan Rob, cryptid enthusiast D.A. Roberts joins host BMR and Krista from the Blondes of Boost Paranormal Podcast to discuss werewolves and dogman contradictions. D.A. Roberts, known for his expertise in werewolves and dogman, shares his insights on the fascination surrounding these creatures. He explains that the uncanny valley theory plays a significant role in our primal fear of something that looks almost human, especially when combined with our fear of wolves. The lore of dogman-type creatures dates back to early history, with references in Roman and Greek writings, as well as accounts from Marco Polo and Christopher Columbus. When asked about the truth behind mythology, D.A. agrees that there is usually some basis in reality. He uses the example of local legends and the naming of geographical features, suggesting that these names were given for a reason and likely stem from some truth. The conversation also touches on the term "dogman," which was coined by a radio operator in the 1980s, and the differences between dogmen and werewolves. D.A. explains that dogmen are often described as canines walking upright on two legs, while werewolves are typically associated with shape-shifting individuals. Throughout the video, D.A. answers questions from the audience, addressing contradictions and misconceptions about these elusive creatures. He encourages viewers to keep an open mind and to explore the wealth of information available on the subject.
