I'm really not. My recap was a summary of all the traits you and others have claimed about Bigfoot in this and other threads. Only I forgot to mention the supposed UFO connection. Sorry about that.

Does any other creature on Earth look anything like this? Any mammal, much less a primate? Any reptile? Any bird?

The picture you have painted of Bigfoot is stranger than any platypus. If you really believe all the varying traits of Bigfoot listed, then you really only have 3 options available to explain Bigfoot:

1.) Bigfoot does not fit anywhere in the zoological or anthropological record. It is therefore a completely unique creature with no other relatives among living animals or the fossil record. Which isn't likely. It must therefore be:

2.) Not of this world. Either alien, supernatural, or an engineered creature.

If you can't accept 1 or 2, then you have to accept ...

3.) A lot of the claims are wrong. Which kinda makes you have to wonder if all the claims are wrong and this is all the product of hoaxes, hucksters, misidentification of known animals, wishful thinking, and fun. Given the overwhelming lack of evidence, this seems the most likely conclusion.

But man, I'd love to be wrong. If anyone out there has any conclusive evidence, let's see it.

This is a genuine four toed footprint, no BS, I kid you not.



It is indeed an ape footprint, not a four toed bear or some mythical beast. But is it a bigfoot foot print?

Well, it's not exactly a recent footprint, in fact it's more like 1.5 million years old. But it has four toes! It's a Homo ergaster footprint.

Chimpanzees have interesting in that they sort of have four hands. The 'toe' is like a thumb and is kinda separate from the rest of the print. But aside from the opposing big toe, there are four toes facing forward.



Just thought I would complicate the issue a little further.

Versatile has stated that he believes some claims are wrong. He believes others. I really do not think he cares if you believe or not though I do not know that for a fact.

He said that he would love to be wrong - I would to. Just give us solid proof.

I count five - the second toe is behind the big toe and the third toe

I want to believe. In fact, I'd love it. Just as I'd love to believe there are still elves in Iceland.

But no one has given me a single credible reason to believe. Hearsay and hoaxes don't amount to much.

I am skeptical. If someone else wants to believe that is up to them. I am interested in any evidence there is though but unfortunately I do not see much to convince myself. It only takes for one post from Versatile or good evidence from another source to convince me though.

The coloring of the Southern Bigfoot varies

The coloring of the Southern Bigfoot varies. There have been reports of white, brown, black,
reddish brown, brownish black, tan, gray, khaki, and black with gray streaks. Another trait of
the Southern Bigfoot is the incredible speeds they can travel. Two members of our Texas
Team were in an area in NE Texas, and spotted two Bigfoot walking across a power line right of
way approximately one half mile away. As soon as the animals spotted the team members, they
exited the right of way with great speed. The team was astonished at the speed the animals covered
the two hundred foot span between them and the tree line on the opposite side of the right of way
without running but, almost gliding the way a cross country skier would travel across snow.
Knees slightly bent, and with their arms swinging to and fro. These animals can move through the
forest as quiet as a deer, and go virtually undetected by humans not but a few yards away, or can
sound like a Freight Train moving through the forest ripping and tearing saplings out of the ground
as they make their way to their desired destination.

While looking for links to show other facts it comes to me that most of all the info i have given is actually out on the internet if you read at the right places.

There are several areas that continue to have Bigfoot activity throughout the year. These animals
move from place to place within their own territory, but do NOT migrate. They live in secluded areas
fairly close to civilization
