Get to know Adam Davies: explorer, adventurer, researcher, and author


Whether you call him an Explorer, Adventurer, or Cryptozoologist, there is no one alive today who has done more active fieldwork to prove the existence of yet-to-be-discovered animals, frequently in remote and sometimes dangerous parts of the world. From the dense jungles of the Congo and Sumatra to the Deserts of Mongolia, and the Mountains of Nepal, Adam has traveled the world in search of scientific evidence of the existence of these creatures.
Notably, Adam has achieved unique results in his research. Expeditions that he has either led or been a key part of have gotten excellent results. Examples include the Orang-Pendek in Sumatra, Sasquatch, the Yeren in China, and the Seljord Serpent in Norway.
Adam has appeared on numerous television programs and channels, including the National Geographic Channel, The Discovery Channel, History Channel’s Monster Quest, and Animal Planet’s Finding Bigfoot, to name just a few. The majority of Adam’s research and expeditions have been self-financed and he devotes much of his spare time to his passion for discovering the world’s mystery animals.

Adam is the author of three non-fiction accounts of his research and adventures in the field, as well as a recent and well-received foray into (fact-based) fiction, “The Revenge of the Hairy Man.”
Adam can be reached by email through the inquiry form on the Contact page of this website..
Here is a short clip of me , wet through, after Zorbing.
Zorbing essentially encompasses you hurtling down a hill in a giant plastic ball! ... See MoreSee Less

At least dinosaurs weren't chasing you...were they? 😉🦖
Maureen Hannan . Not this time..
Wow that looks like fun. Would have liked to see video of you zeroing. 🙂
Any Zorbing video Adam? 📹 We NEED to see it 👀
I didn’t realize they had water in them!
Jim Dodge . Yes it's cold.
I love how you get out there and live and enjoy your life. Have a wonderful day. 😎😊
Who'd of thought playing with balls could be so much fun!🤣
Theresa Schumacher. Thanks Theresa. You too!
Looks like an amazing time
I see you wiped the vomit from your face before filming. :-D
Glad you had fun
Can’t be as much fun as throwing a cheese down the hill
Hmmm giant ball with freezing cold water think id sit at the bar with a giant glass filled with ice and alcohol and watch all the cold balls roll down the hill
Brilliant nice 1 Adam
Such Madness!
Is there a professional Zoebing team?

That’s a bad situation to be in i would assume???!!!😳
Joseph Lee . I am really happy l got the footage. And l am OK, so all is good.
How close were you to them? That seems rather close for comfort!
Get goin' Quit fiddle farting around😜
Richard Monck. It wasn't comfortable, but the mother had shown no interest in me whatsoever and just continued to eat grass. So I was able to get past them.
Adam Davies Wow. I'm glad you survived to tell the tale! There's nothing like that on Dartmoor; aside from the occasional shady looking sheep!
We saw a mama and 3 Cubs once, not that close, but it was amazing. The Cubs went up into the woods behind her. She just kept foraging, paying people no mind. At least until a silly couple thought they would get closer for shots of the Cubs. The second they moved towards the woods she raised her head up and gave them a STARE!! They wisely backed off and she went back to grazing. Told the kids “look, we’re gonna see someone get mauled by a mama bear”🤦🏼♂️
Good job!
Awesome video
Adam Davies me too! Glad you are ok! Keep up the great adventure!
Adam Davies beuatiful bear! Didn’t really look too aggressive in this video! Can I ask tho? We’re you able to smell her?
That's real close. Pretty cool
The Tall Ones. Thanks Brent!
Theresa Schumacher Thanks!
Susan Preissler Redmond Thanks!
Awesomeness
Tooooo close 😳
Joseph Lee. I don't recall a smell.
Ed Wiland. Thanks Ed!
Thanks for sharing!
Adam, I obviously don't know you personally and I watch your adventures on TV at every opportunity but, your brave..yes, never thought you as crackers!! Soooo close to Momma Bear! 😬 🫣🫨😘
Carolyn Abt . My pleasure
Janis J Price. It was fine. Enjoy the footage.
Adam Davies Kind of avoids the ideas that you could smell either a bear or Squatch before you see them. I’ve been hearing a lot about strong stench is before encounters lately. 
Always do. 🙏

Adam do they? Does a bear shit in the woods 🐻💩😊
Again you show your cool head, understand and knowledge that has made you an expert. This is amazing.
Tim Root. Thanks so much!
I'm glad mama didn't take notice of you. Black bears can attack fast when they have babies around
She had easy food to forage… you would be too many calories burned!
Yeah I deal with them on a daily/nightly basis here in WV LOL
Here’s another advice post my friend😉

My encounter with a mother bear and her cubs, yesterday. ... See MoreSee Less
Comment on Facebook
Didn’t she see you?
That bear is lucky to be alive!
Wow! That's awesome!
Janie Baldwin. She must have known l was there. Didn't seem to have much interest in me fortunately.
Adam Davies wow, that sure is fortunate!
That’s amazing She looks healthy How far away were you from her did she notice you. Wow
What you didn’t go pet her? Play with the cubs for awhile? Silly you! 😂😂😂👍👍👍
All she wanted was a cuddle
Loretta Collins . I will put up more posts in the next few days. About 100 yards. She didn't seem to care about me, fortunately.
Amazing
By picking up and holding a bear cub, it shows the mother bear you mean them no harm.
Oh my gosh. Were you not scared?
Awesome‼️
Adam Davies she wasn't hungry enough!
Love this!❤️
So beautiful...deadly if not careful and you are so much braver than I could ever be. 😬🙂
Pam Rowe . Not really. I was cautious of course, but it never showed any interest in me.
Holly shit! 😮
Beautiful!
That's great footage
The Bigfoot Diaries: Sightings and Encounters. Thanks! Wait until Monday

Nice spot Adam. I have a few of these in my research area. Great spots for a picnic or just to hang out and relax : )👣
Beautiful spot! Same to you Adam
I love the sound of running water did you climb those rocks
Loretta Collins . Yes I went up by the side of them. I am out right now, but in a different place.
Oh wow. Thats really great beautiful areas you pick for your research have fun be safe
Loretta Collins. Thanks so much!
Beautiful!
You too, sir! 😊
Loretta Collins Beautiful
Thank-you same to you Adam! This remnds me of places in Washington.
Looks wonderful! Have a great week.
I could sit in a place like that all day!
At our age scenes of flowing water should be kept to a minimum..... 🤣
Good to see you are still alive Adam.
Now I need a wee 🙄
You’re the best!

Whilst at the OBC , I decided to do some early morning tracking , looking specifically for prints. Ohio had endured heavy rains in the days leading up to the conference.
Only about twenty minutes walk from the Lodge is an area where there have been many alleged sightings of Bigfoot.
I didn't find anything while I was there, but I did spend a pleasant three hours hiking around. ... See MoreSee Less

Beth and I found a track on the trail about 4 years ago
Wonderful pictures Adam. Will you be here in June for the festivities?
Wonderful picture
What a great couple of days. Friday and Saturdays weather was perfect. This weekend was the fist time I hiked Morgan’s Knob super cool. I would love to go up on a clear night do some star gazing.
I love the pine forest at Morgan’s Knob❤️glad you got to spend some time in the beautiful park😁❤️
You know what they say: you can't find anything from the back of your armchair. You gotta get out and look. If you ain't looking, you will never find.
Well done for making no capital at all with the name. I lack that degree of self-control :) .
Enjoyed the talk we had at the convention. You are very entertaining!🤪
You missed me this year, right?😂
I’m relieved to see there’s no apostrophe in Morgans.
Wow beautiful area
Looks beautiful!
Beautiful. Never been to that area.
Well they band me from running naked in those woods 😂
I've been to that conference -- really enjoyed it. Got to meet Cliff Barackman, Dr. Jeffrey Meldrum, and Sybilla Irwin. 😊
I heard something like a champagne cork popping off on the Stone House trail several years ago.
Any time spent in the woods is a good day Adam. Even if I find nothing or have any contact with my Clan, the time spent is priceless, enjoy the beauty of nature : ) 👣
right behind you … it’s white too, can’t miss it 👀
Sometimes you don't NEED to find anything to have a good day in the woods. ❤️RH👣
I like to say “I’ve never had a bad day in the woods”. Glad you got out while there.
Hotspot in the park
Nice!

Awesome ❤️
Don’t go chasing waterfalls!!! Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you’re used to!!!
Jeffery R. Thomas . Am I moving too fast?
I think you’re gonna have it your way… or nothing at all
Beautiful!
That is absolutely breathtaking The sound of rushing water is so energizing to me very pretty country
They are a reminder of life always being a work in progress.
www.facebook.com/search/top?q=ricketts%20glen%20state%20park - try it sometime. Maybe PA Bigfoot Project will join you there.
Beautiful!! 🌹
Fort Augustus loch Ness yesterday.
So calming to listen to them
Adam, I just hope your love of waterfalls does not put you on the same course as your great, great uncle, Sir Cedric Davies. He was the first man to make an unsuccessful attempt to go over Niagara Falls in a barrel. :D
Waterfalls are beautiful! But slippery if you get too close. 😊
Me too!
Absolutely gorgeous!!!
Me too!!

Melissa Goforth Bale . I am here for you, if you ever feel you need any help or support.

Exactly!
Adam Davies. Do you live here now?

I spent today hiking to Albright Grove in Cosby, Tennessee.
A wonderful example of an old growth forest, it is a place l have wanted to get to for three years now.
It is much less visited than many other parts of the Smokies, not least l imagine because of the steep ascent to reach it, but I can assure you that it is well worth the effort. ... See MoreSee Less

Great area!
Amazing!!!💖✨
Jen Kruse you should get the On X app..as long as you have it on and signed into it it will continue to work if you go offline..make a waypoint at your car, or the trailhead..if you get lost click on that waypoint to go back to it and watch your tracking to make sure you are going the right way..
Beautiful. ❤️
Noice!! You are about an hour from where I live! Awesome!
Very beautiful!
Beautiful pictures!!
Beautiful old trees
Gorgeous country.
This is great Adam! Safety first before anything. Next time you’re near Bray Road again let me know. I’d love to take you to my areas in The Kettle Moraine. Truly magical woods on every level.
Good to see you out
Great area Adam! We’ve been there, but haven’t hiked it yet. Adding to the to do list.
Getting ready to head to the Smokies on Wednesday 19th.
Drove by Cosby today in my trip down to SC!
I Love ancient areas. Not many left now but you seem to find them 😊
Do you use some type of GPS unit in case you get lost or do you stay on the trails?
Cosby. My neck of the woods, brother!
Love your posts Adam Davies! And for once you are less than a 1000 miles from me 😉
If you’re ever on the Bryson city side of the Smokies I recommend riding the Smoky Mountains Railroad.
Beautiful area Looks very secluded squatchy did you see any wildlife or hear any
You’re in my neck of the woods. 😊
Not too far from me Adam Davies
Try and visit western Maryland, specifically Garrett County. Very steep terrain and sparsely populated, I've gone into swallow falls state park with full camo looking for Sasquatch. Many sightings in that area.
Shrooms, shrooms......SHROOMS! Oh wait...I'm bad, wrong season....lol Glad you are getting out traveling, enjoy and be safe.
