Finding Bigfoot

[InChiefsHeaven]

Just out of curiosity, do any of you think it's possible that givin the thousands of square miles of forest in the US that there are indeed places in there that no man has ever stepped in? Seems pretty impossible to me, but thousands of square miles IS alot. I don't know how far in your average hunter goes, but I'd bet there is still a great deal of forest area that has been largely untouched by humans. Maybe that's where they are...heh.

I hunt here in Nebraska, and it's not even a particularly remote area. I've seen one deer carcass in 12 years. Nature seems to pick up after itself pretty well.

No doubt there are a few remote spots that man hasnt been to- there were places in Washington (state) that we said 'hell no' about trying to move into or through; just too thick/steep or isolated. I'll say the same for some places in northern New Mexico. That's only my limited experience.

I will admit I'm kinda fascinated by things like this too.

I caught one once, but he wasn't regulation size so I had to throw him back into the woods.

Even better than Bigfoot is the Skunk Ape. The guy who runs the Skunk Ape Research Headquarters is a total nut job.

We tried to buy souvenirs from him and he kept just giving them to us for free all while bitching about how is what so financially hard to continue research.

I do believe there's a squatch in these posts.

i find the show funny....but how could they exist, yet a body/skeleton has never been found...ever. what happens to them when they die??? they disappear??? :lol:

The show is ****ing terrible.

I look at this like I look at UFO's: do I think that 20 out of thousands of sightings might be real? Yeah, I think that's possible. I think a very small percentage of what people see could be real.

It's possible in some remote location there is a small population. Not likely - but possible.

can't disagree with any of this.
I grew up in the upper peninsula of Michigan on an Air Force Base near Sault St Marie (pronounced Soo). we lived near the edge of the base and practically lived in the woods every day. if you took off the wrong direction and got lost....you're gone man. we were in the middle of nowhere...wilderness like a mother****er! bears and shit. real deal.

our swimming hole was Dukes lake and one day authorities took a plaster cast of a supposed bigfoot footprint. I was understandably fascinated. funny thing though...we were never afraid of anything in the woods except for bears. we figured...hey....he'd be nice to us...right? and no...I never saw one. I've seen and read everything I've come across on bigfoot. a couple of the most thought provoking things I ever came across was...
1 - a footprint cast of a bigfoot with malformed foot. it was analyzed by a foot doc and he said along with the dermal ridges that run differently in apes than they do in humans....that the deformity itself could only have been faked by a doctor. but it could have been faked I guess...still....
2 - tried to find a pic or video. but some show I saw had pics of yeti tracks in the himalayas that went on for miles. just giant barefoot tracks that run up the side of the mountain. coulda been faked but if I remember correctly they weren't even on a mission about bigfoot, they just came across the tracks. freaking weird man.

one of the only things I can think of on this show that ever really intrigued me is this....



if it's not a fake....it's very possible someone had a pet ape of some kind and that's what it is......other than that.....WTF!

you can do a little research and find that bigfoot goes back to caveman days in multiple countries. so...imo....there MUST be SOMETHING to it...but I think whatever may have been is no longer. meaning that at some point in time, IF they were real, and it's certainly possible that they were, but at some point in time they died out. maybe they were still around when Columbus discovered this place. maybe they were gone by then. maybe the last few, with dwindling numbers and unable to reproduce, maybe they disappeared in the 50's, or the 60's.....but as of right now....come on man!

shit...didn't mean to write a book. it's a subject that I've been mucho interested in since grade school. anyways...I'll stop with this. so after saying come on man! did you know that they just discovered....I think in 2004/2007?...a brand new 300 pound species of chimpanzees in some remote rain forest!? they walk upright a lot of the times and they weigh 300 lbs! think about that!

there is so damn much of this planet we know nothing about. so damn much that a human eye has never seen. so....maybe in a rain forest somewhere you've got a bigfoot...but in Cali...or Minnesota...hell anywhere in the US....I think not.

but maybe....

Any Chupacabra sightings lately?

Should have named this show "Not finding Bigfoot."

Pretty interesting story, Halfcan. Thanks for sharing.
