We have proof of dinosaurs from 1,0000s of years ago but we don't have any definitive proof of something that supposedly still around. I have a hard time believing that. Surely a skeleton of one would have been found unless they live forever

Maybe they bury their dead? Maybe they are highly intelligent? Then again, skeletal remains are not often found in the deep forest. Look how many deer must die every year. vs. how many skeletons are found? Nature has a way of getting rid of remains.

Maybe they ritualize their dead...we burn up ours! Or they get eaten up fast

When was the last large species discovered that we didnt know existed...it happens every year.

Not really. Usually something is just reclassified because genetic evidence shows it is slightly different than the species that looks just like it.

With all due respect, a goblin spider is not 8 feet tall and weighs 600 pounds. Now if ole samsquanch was gecko size, I may get on board.

If anything I think it could possibly be a gigantopithecus. Some have their size at almost 9' tall and around 1000lbs.
