If you haven't heard of this guy and his youtube channel yet, you are seriously missing out. Detailed and rigorous scientific analysis of incredible sighting reports, videos, and photo's and that sort of thing. He also has come up with a few interesting theories of his own that I believe hold some weight. He is American based and his videos mainly focus on the North American Sasquatch, but there is some other stuff up there too. He's a very logical and scientifically minded person who in my opinion should be much more well known. Beautifully illustrated videos that are quite eloquently narrated as well. His channel, for me at least, was a treasure trove of completely new and incredibly interesting information that led to me having a much deeper and even firmer belief in Bigfoot (or yowies here). If you haven't checked this channel out already I cannot recommend it enough. I feel that everyone here would appreciate it and the work that has been done there.

Just a disclaimer, not every video on his channel is about Bigfoot (a few discuss reports of encounters with apparently paranormal entities or aliens/UFO's) and not every video is about something real. He is an author so some of his videos are I guess, 'short stories' that are fictional but he makes it abundantly clear when that is the case.

Whatever your particular beliefs on the subject, I firmly believe that this channel holds a lot of invaluable information and discussion, so if you're looking for something fresh to sink your teeth into, go check out the channel 'Bob Gymlan' on YouTube. And yes, I believe the channel name IS a sly joke (lol)

His channel is excellent. I'm pretty sure he will be doing a yowie story soon.

I've watched Bob Gymlan videos very well produced and I like the illustrated videos such as The Boy That Was Taken From The Smokies https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jda0-C5awNE they really do establish a clearer picture in your mind.

The fact that he is very logical with a scientific mind would spell words of caution to me. Some other videos I've watched of his especially on the paranormal is a bit like trying to mix oil and water.

But overall they are well made and it's up to the individual to make up their own mind :)

Yes, although myself I like his style, as you said, he rarely tells you what is, more often just what could likely be based on what can or cannot be proven, hypothesised or substantiated in some way. I like the idea of there being things in this world that haven't yet been fully explained, but I'm also naturally skeptical about anything that can't be explained at all. But I keep an open mind and I'm always happy to be proved wrong if possible, as usually I'm betting on the more rational if not more boring option.
