I'm torn on this one. It seems to me if the creature exists, someone would have found bones by now. But, as someone said up-thread, new species are always being discovered.

I always try to keep an open mind, just not so open that my brains are falling out.

The Sasquatch, or a version of it, has been talked about for centuries. Before I call people kooks or anything, I try to remember that I've never seen a baby (juvenile) pigeon, but I'm pretty sure they exist.

If the Sasquatch are related to humans, is it not a good theory that they bury their dead?

I am on the fence with this one. This stuff when it is real happens very quickly.

Hikers take flight when what they thought was a bear resembles Bigfoot

I know some of you, my wife included will say "they don't find bones BECAUSE THEY DON'T EXIST" But if they don't exist how can you explain so many Native American legends and how do you explain all the sightings had by people on TV shows.
To play Devil's Advocate, how many bones or animal bodies of any kind have you found in the woods? Combine this with the fact that Sasquatch allegedly lives in the most remote places left on Earth (the Pacific Northwest, Himalayas, etc.), what are the chances someone would happen across the body of an extremely rare species in one of the densest forests of North America?

Between 1992 and 1994, scientists confirmed the existance of two previously unknown species of large ungulates living in Vietnam (the muntjac or barking deer, and the Vu Quang ox - a type of wild cow). As such, the possibility of a large primate living in the remote forests of North America is not at all outside the realm of possibility.

This encounter is one of the most compelling I have read to date.

There you go spouting off and wrong again.Get off your arm chair away from a computer and get outside. You don't move in these areas of people researching this stuff and i do. Any serious researcher know that even films or photos is not acceptable only a body will provide the proof. Some have tried and failed. Read a bit and you will find out that all hell can break loose when one is considered in danger.Thus the true researcher will not take the shot. Most usually they move in at least two at a time. Just because a person one sure doesn't mean there is not another one there.I don't have any lock on where these creatures at at all. Quit trying to put words in my mouth. I have told you states that have quite a bit of activity and the world for the most part thinks Pacific Northwest for the most part..

I started out to but this BF stuff as a Hoax and cannot. Do yor own reasech and you wil be suprized as i was.

I enjoy watching all the bigfoot shows-very intriguing- I use to think the same,,,,hard proof would be here if they were real, same as ufo's

well,,i do believe in ufo's, heard enough from accredited individuals, that they must exist,,,,

bigfoots, I do believe someday, someone will shoot one- sadly,,,,but again, you watch enough shows, many cops, sherriffs, even scientists, that have nothing to gain- and being ridiculed,,,all say similar things about sightings..

one camp up in canada, had some scientists there and something threw a rock on the side and roof of the cabin, what else can throw a rock?


I also believe in the afterlife,,,,,again, too much evidence not to..


years ago , I was a skeptic, of everything, ..but i've matured to know that just because I cant see something, doesnt mean it doesnt exist...Ive never been to new zealand,,,but i've heard from enough reputable people, that it in fact does exist

Well put, brokerman.

I have heard people ridiculing others for certain beliefs. One stands out in my mind because the guy was talking about people who believe that certain stones or crystals could have unseen properties. He said something about it being ridiculous that a rock could have an invisible energy. I had a one word reply for him: "Uranium."

As far as Sasquatch goes, it has been talked about for so many years and in so many different places, and the descriptions were similar way before we had the internet where information spreads like wildfire between locations. It's been almost universally described as tall, hairy, apelike, and very smelly.

I believe most of those people saw something. I don't know if it was a Sasquatch, a bear, or a scraggly human, but I believe that they saw something in most of the testimonials I've read.

There you go spouting off again. You have asked a couple of people on this thread to go camping with you and they would be scared to death because of bigfoot. You tell people to run when they starting swaying side to side because they are sending signals to another bigfoot. You tell skeptics on here they will change their mind if they go out with you and have bigfoot throw rocks at them or you put a coat covered with animal scent on them. You say you know people that live in areas where bigfoot is and they don`t like it when others come and stir them up because your friends then have to deal with bigfoot after the rebel rousers leave. Now you say you don`t have a lock on where they are? So in previous post you act like you know where they are and when called out on it, you now say you only know the states but not the locations.

I`ve already said it on here several times before, but I`ll say it again. Don`t get your panties in a wad because someone is a skeptic. I`m not saying 100% that they don`t exist, but I find it highly unlikely after decades of research and tracking. The reason is because there are supposedly people that live in those remote areas that say they see and hear bigfoot quite often. For decades we have people saying they live near them and see and hear them. So real geuine scientist and trackers go to where all of this activity is, but they never see them.

For those that say, we find new species from time time, that may be true. But scientist stumble upon those species. On the other hand, there have been hundreds of scientist actually looking for BF for decades, exactly where the so called sightings and stories come from. But have yet to find anything. THey actually comb those areas with expensive equipment and always come up empty. That`s why I find it hard to beleive. If they had only been searching for a few years,that would be one thing. But decade after decade all over the world and no BF. Just seems like a stretch to me.

New data on this subject has been in the news lately. This is one article, but if you google Big foot DNA, there are lots of them out there right now.

Could be another elaborate hoax, but an interesting turn of events no matter what.
