They were probably in mid morph when they saw them, so no one could recinise the. By the way, the Animorphs term for that would be "an ellimist did it" (I read that somewhere on that SITE!)
But Rachel said that this controller has no respect for woman at all.

I think that there are other strange things in the first book. For example, the woman escaped riding on Cassie. So, there is a woman who knows everything about the Yeerks, and she's free. What about her? Did the yeerks try to kill or recapture her?

Maybe ths is a KASU.

Remember that crazy woman from MM#1?  That woman is widely believed to be the same woman that Cassie rescued.

Anyway, about the subject at large, I'm guessing that the reason nobody suspected that the Animorphs were human is because Visser Three is a batsh** lunatic (as has been mentioned in the books as well as in this thread).  I can easily picture him responding to "Hey, I think maybe the Andalite bandits are human?" with <Are you implying that I am so incompetent as to be stifled by mere human youths!?!> Fwap!  That's the sound-effect for an Andalite's tail, for anyone with bad memory, by the way.

So it makes some amount of sense to me, without invoking the "Ellimist did it" clause.  It isn't that no Yeerk ever realized the Animorphs were human.  It's just that any Yeerk who came forward with that information quickly unrealized it.

They suspected it around The Messenger when the Animorphs morphed into trout and the controllers chasing them found their clothes.

And that's why Visser Three never caught in. If V1 or heck, any of the slightly more competent Vissers had been in control of Earth's invasion the Animorphs would have been routed and infested.

:facepalm:  I'm a moron sometimes.  Which occasionally leads me to assume that other people are morons too, sorry about that.

Well I don't know honestly what to think about it.The controllers COULD have saw them and kept quiet.They didn't see them all that well due to Visser Three or where just stupid and probably though they were other humans getting away(if during mid-morph I have no clue.).

Besides I am not an expert on this stuff,only the bird-boy stuff. :P

I would assume about 60% of the population his the idiot gland. The rest have the "no common sense" growth.

     No. Someone must have seen them. My guess is, those Yeerks decided to keep quiet.



yeah, it's sorta impossible to morph/demorph in front of that much people without being noticed   
Starfire is my RAFcousin. :D
click?

Thanks Ouroborus! ^_^

And if there were ever a film adaptation of book 1 and a TV special of Megamorphs 1, then K.A. Applegate herself should play the part of that woman. :P

Maybe ths is a KASU.

The Animorphs would have told her to keep quiet, and move far, far, away!
