Amazon Cryptid Hunter Recounts Jungle Adventures and Howler Monkey Encounter

In this episode of "Mysteries Unlimited" on the TCC Research YouTube channel, host Justin Decker delves into the mysteries of the Amazon rainforest, specifically in Colombia. The Amazon, often referred to as the "lungs of the Earth," is home to many cryptids and elusive creatures. Unfortunately, the rainforest has lost 20% of its area over the last 50 years due to deforestation, primarily for cattle ranching. Justin Decker, the guest on the show, spent a significant part of his life living in the Amazon rainforest. His parents were missionaries involved in contact missionary work, exploring the jungle to find uncontacted native tribes. Eventually, they settled near the Maku tribe, a hostile and unfriendly group. The family lived in a house built on stilts in the middle of a lake for safety, as the tribe was known to be dangerous. One interesting story Justin shared was about his father's encounter with a howler monkey while exploring the jungle. There are two species of howler monkeys in the Amazon: red and black. They are among the largest primates in the region, with the gray woolly monkey, or churupo, being the tallest. Despite the common belief that jungle rivers are teeming with wildlife, the sound of motorboats usually scares the animals away. As Bigfoot believers, it's fascinating to explore the mysteries of other regions, like the Amazon rainforest, where many cryptids and elusive creatures reside. The Amazon's rich biodiversity and unexplored areas make it an intriguing subject for those who enjoy the thrill of the unknown.
