December 1974 New Orleans, Orleans County, Louisiana #999

Frozen caracass displayed in sideshow.

While Christmas shopping at a mall in east New Orleans in December 1974 or 1975, the witness paid to view a purported ape-like carcass frozen in ice inside a glass-topped freezer displayed as a casket. The witness spent 20-30 minutes examining visible skin, fur, and blood-tinged ice and became convinced it was a recently killed real animal, possibly a Bigfoot. The witness later urged a primate-center director to investigate but never learned of any follow-up.

A quick ask from the person behind the Anomadex: if you allow analytics, Google Analytics shows me which places, phenomena and searches you're most curious about. That tells me which regions and sources to add next and what to make easier to find. It never sees your name or anything you send me, and nothing is set unless you say yes. Privacy
