I find it kinda suspicious that this species niche seems to only make sense with homo sapiens around? Who would that hominid need to run away from if not for homo sapiens? I don’t have great intuitions for the numbers here, but it seems like homo sapiens invading the americas would probably not be enough time to adapt.
If they exist, then they would have crossed the Bering land bridge at the same time as humans. They would never have lived anywhere without a human presence. And yes, similar sightings are known from across Asia also.

Well, this sounds kinda intriguing, but I am not sure whether this is the kind of area where I am currently epistemically helpless. Thankfully, prediction markets exist
