Graybeard, I have a question about Bigfoot.
« on: May 20, 2006, 11:18:11 PM »
Mr Graybeard, I am being most sincere, as I find the Bigfoot phenomena facinating. I'm not sure where to post this quetsion, and I don't know how or where to requset being a member of the Bigfoot forum, so here goes, anyway. You have, yourself, as have many others, posed the position that new species are being discovered and recognized all the time, and this is true. But my question is how many of these newly identified species are only recently seen and discovered, with little or no recent knowledge of their existance? The myth, belief, theory, legend and lore of bigfoot has been around for thousands of years, and yet there is no solid evidence of it's actual existance. These newly discovered species that many point out - have they been the subject of ancient legend also? Or have they just been newly discovered?  To find and identify a new species previously unheard of, even in rumor, is different than finding and identifying a "legendary" species that has been talked about for many centuries. So, while it is encouraging to know that new species of animal life are being discovered to this day, it isn't a very solid argument that because of the new discoveries of other species,  the discovery of bigfoot existance is just as likely. I hope I explained my curiosity clearly enough, if not, let me know and I'll try it again. Thanks, peace and God bless, Wolfsong. P.S. I have had what I call (and believe) a bigfoot tree knocking episode, as I shared in another post here. Do'nt know what it actually was (obviously) but bigfoot seems like a likely explanation.

Wolfsong,

I have accumulated enough experiences in the woods to know there is something (generally classified as BF) out there yet to be identified by modern scientific forensic methods...YET.

~2 years ago a "new" species of chimpanzee was discovered in the Congo.  It weighs ~300 pounds so the notion it was some sort of "bug" hiding among the branches is rendered moot.

As far as BF is concerned there are (at risk of sounding paranoid) tremendous political and economic forces which would suffer a negative impact once the identity of this entity is established by mainstream science.  Timber, energy and outdoor recreation industries' would probably take the initial "hit" once it becomes widely known there's been a new "critter" tramping around the woods of north america the last few eons.

Think about this, what do you think the timber industry would've done to each and every Spotted Owl IF they'd gotten to them, FIRST ???

With this being said, GB Outdoors has taken steps to create a new website dedicated to the endeavour of working on this issue.

I, and a few others have been charged with the responsibility of "fleshing out" the site in preparation for it's launch into cyberspace.  Unfortunately, my father's failing health has necessitated spending much of my time of late back in north Alabama as his days on this planet are coming to a close.  However, I will make a concerted effort to hold up my end of the deal.

A few words about this "new" website.

It will be a place where honest exchange of ideas and experiences will be profiled and discussed.  Malignant ego's, keyboard commando critics and trolls will not be welcome nor tolerated.  There is a plethora of sites already in existence where such can be massaged and further enlarged.

Our hope is it will be a resource whereby those new to the endeavour of "BF research" can come and find information/ideas they can take away and implement into immediate practical application in the field.  Seasoned researchers are always welcome with the aforementioned caveat(s) as general housekeeping rule #1.

Wolfsong, keep an open mind and honest heart filled with the knowledge the "woods" are full of those who'd love nothing more than to make a fast buck off of you or delight in making sport of your inexperience.  Those dudes won't be found on this site so maybe you'll be able to walk away with more useable information and even begin to see things with your third eye.

Telahnay's Grandson, I shall keep my eyes and ears open, as well as my mind. There are things that go bump in the night, and most everything has a reasonable and logical explanation and cause. But there are some things that aren't readily explained by years of experiance and knowledge. I am not afraid to encounter strange and unexplained occurances, after all, we humans are of this earth also. While the tree knocking experiance that we had was a bit unnerving, it served to interest me more than spook me. The only creature that alarms me in my neck of the woods (besides the two legged city slicker weekend warrior hunters) is those damn mountain lions. Most bears in the Sierras are overgrown dump rats, looking for an easy meal in camp. More of a nuisance than a threat, although I know better than to relax when there is bear sign. But those damn cats...Anyhow, I will share what info I can regarding Mr. bigfoot, as I have a number of good friends of the Miwok people, and they have plenty of lore and stories handed down through the years. This is gonna be fun, as long as the pranksters and naysayers are kept in check. Peace and God bless, Wolfsong.

Did you guys watch the Bigfoot movie on Sci-Fi last Saturday? WOW! If he is that mean you folks better move if he's in your area. That was one big bad dude. Twelve feet tall and he ate everyone he saw.

At the end the Sherriff who was a non believer in mosters and the two deputies were in the woods looking for the missing people when they heard noises all around them. They shined their flashlights and saw a dozen or more pairs of eyes of all different heights. NOT GOOD!  :eek:

Yup it was that for sure. I've noticed that lately the quality of the movies on Sci-Fi on Saturday night is going WAY down.

Considering Sci-Fi's recent taste in movies I choose not to watch it. After reading the reviews here maybe I should have. I could use a good chuckle. :)

wolfsong I am not sure if this is what your meaning or not but here it goes.
Many new animals even some larger ones have been found in the last 20 years. Some of them was known to the locals before they became "Known" to the rest of the world.
 Take for example the in 2003 a new animal was found in Borneo about the size of a large house cat.
A few years before that they found some new animals in Vietnam some of them related to cows that had never been seen by anyone but local people.
I could go on and on about the new animals found in the seas but that would take for ever.
The point is humans still find new animals just about every day on this earth. Most of them are very small but every now and then a larger one is found. Some are known by the locals and some are new to even them. To think that humans know every animal on this earth is just silly. I can not get over just how many people out there think that we know everything about this earth and nothing new will ever be learned. Some people do not even think we should continue exploring space as nothing is to be learned from it. Can you even imagine what will be learned if we ever figure out how to go beyond the stars and see what is out there ?


Oh and that movie on Sci-Fi was good but I wish they made the face better as it looked so fake.
That always makes me remember that even today no movie has come close besides harry and the Henderson's and star wars in making a costume even close to the patty film. And even them could not have been made back in 1967.
