Britain's Ex-Official UFOlogist: No Connection Between UFOs and Bigfoot

Nick Pope used to run the British governments UFO project and he thinks UFOlogy and
Cryptozoology should be as separate as food on a grade school lunch tray

On the heels of our previous post, "Sasquatch Home Planet Revealed," where we had someone reveal the alien origins of Bigfoot, we happen to have a UFOlogist that believes there should be a separation between UFOlogy and Cryptozoology. 

Nick Pope is an author, journalist and a TV personality, who used to run the British Government's UFO Project and is now recognized as one of the world's leading experts on UFOs, the unexplained and conspiracy theories.

He is interviewed by Jeffery Pritchett for the Marianna Paranormal Examiner. He also hosts a radio show The Church Of Mabus. The interview is mostly about UFOlogy, which we rarely cover, so if you want to read the whole interview go here. If you just want to read the part we think is interesting (The Bigfoot stuff) read the question and answer below. 

Jeffery Pritchett: How do you feel about the Bigfoot Alien UFO connection? Some serious researchers out there tying them all into together like Stan Gordon and many others with some very interesting evidence and witness testimony.

Nick Pope: I’m not an expert on Bigfoot, but while I’m aware of some of these theories, I’m wary of linking cryptozoology with ufology. It’s human nature to look for connections and to try to find patterns, but sometimes our fondness for this leads us to see things that aren’t there. I’ll keep an open mind, but I have yet to be persuaded.
