"...more than three veteran sasquatch investigators in Florida have investigated and determined that the Myakka photograph was a masked individual in a baggy-leg costume and deemed a hoax. The imagination of creative cryptozoology writers ran away with themselves on this one, it's wishful thinking, wholly a misidentification, a hoax, call it what you like -- there is no mysterious Myakka creature in Florida, there are no fossil records of apes in Florida. Apes are quadrupeds while the bigfoot aka sasquatch or skunk ape is a biped, classifying it a homin not a pongid. Even if there were feral or escaped apes from primate facilities or circuses managing to live off the fruitless Everglades, they are not related to Florida's hominoid upright walking, hairy creature," wrote Short.

"In addition, a May 2006 letter from Mitsuko Choden, primate specialist in Japan revealed the Myakka ape is a costume familiar to them in assorted colors, with plastic teeth molded in the fashion of the great apes. She went on to say the subject in the Myakka photograph expressed no body, arm or leg definition that would lend itself to the great apes."

And yet there are many who believe that the creature in question could be the legendary skunk ape. Skunk ape sightings aren’t even that unusual in the area, as it turns out. In an article from 2014, the Sarasota Herald-Tribune reported that there had been at least a dozen sightings of the cryptid around the Myakka River from the 1960s into the 1980s. Sightings in the area continue to this day, and so, too, persists the mystery of the Myakka skunk ape photos. In a high-profile fraud case against a major corporation, a district judge faced a consequential dilemma: The defense was a former student. Would this alone be grounds for recusal?

The trial was fictional, but Judge Maryanne Trump Barry pondered the question seriously on a panel hosted by the Federal Judges Association in 1997. Barry, the older sister of Donald Trump, and at that time a U.S. District Court judge for the district of New Jersey, concluded that this relationship alone would not demand that she disqualify herself.
