rare rob weaver sighting

local officials are reporting that two hunters on holiday claim to have snapped a photo of the illusive rob weaver in the desert mountains near san gabriel reservoir, just above the town of azusa, ca. Image hosted by Photobucket.com

there is debate about the authenticity of the picture, due to it's dim lighting, and also because a huntington beach fisherman also claims to have taken a photograph of the hairy beast only hours later. Image hosted by Photobucket.com
it is accepted that it is simply not possible for both photos to be authentic given that the average running speed of a rob is somewhere between 3-5 miles/ hour, and robs are known to be non-migratory, sloth-like, territorial creatures.

  1. If you look closely you can see the evidence of doctoring of the photos. The perspective is wrong. I suspect photoshop and old navy photo files were used. While it may in fact be a robage, I think being so close to hollywood it is someone younger madeup to look like a wise, older version of the "ro bage".

  3. This almost fills the screen as a backaround picture on a 1280x1024 monitor. Where'd you find someone with such a big camera?
