Howdy! Seems like rewards for finding Bigfoot have been offered. Someone or some organization could offer a "$10 million reward" for finding and capturing a Bigfoot. It could be like a contest over say, 1 or 2 months. An insurance policy could be bought that would pay off in case someone did find one. You would think people would be doing this already! The question is; however, how much of a monetary incentive would it take for some group or organization to fund a comprehensive high tech search for Bigfoot? Always, Gene

LOL!

Shows how little you know about him. Don't you realize that he orders custom made shoes online with his iPhone? No brick & mortar store stocks his size.

Drop Nancy Poliski in the middle of prime bigfoot area, Than bigfoot will look for you!!

About 25 years ago, 20 some folks saw, heard, and smelled a "Bigfoot" not so far from here. The group included two deputy sheriffs.

It's interesting that they smell like brimstone.

You may be on to something there Swampy.

Most of your hairbrained views make little sense, but in this case it's the only logical theory...

They only make sense if you've been where I've been and seen what I've seen. As you've often heard me say, I'm not guessing.

It's easy to find Bigfoot. All you need is some Jack Links Beef Jerky. He will find you. Just don't mess with him. Seriously, you can't find something that doesn't exist. Not one single solitary bit of evidence has ever been presented that couldn't be explained. Most of the stuff that believers come up with is normally just made up to counter skeptics. At least thats what I believe.

Howdy! It seems to be a lot of footprint casts of Bigfoot or whatever you wish to call them. There needs to be a search similar to the one they had for the Ivory Billed Woodpecker some years ago. As said previously, find a 4 square mile area to search, place 1000 trail cams, and with a team of researchers, do a study to see what can be found. After say, 6 weeks, move on to another 4 square mile area, etc. It would seem that modern day technology could be used with satellites to find activity, if Bigfoot exists. If such a study as described was done for 10 consecutive years and they found nothing, I might be inclined to say, "Gosh, there has been much modern technological research and nothing significant has been found. Bigfoot may not exist or perhaps Bigfoot has found ways to avoid being found." Always, Gene

Fun Topic GeneRector.

I think Bigfoot is great to ponder. I personally am a skeptic and believer at the same time. I want proof, but will not say it doesn't exist. I also think it is Amazing that we have spent billions of dollars to go into space and land on the moon, but we still haven't found a cure for the common cold. Cynical, I guess. I think that if a group with the funds Truly wanted to prove, or disprove, that Bigfoot exists, they more than likely could. We have Way to much technology. But, how bad do we really want to know? All around the world, every year there are New Species discovered. Many times, animals thought to be extinct are found running around, very much alive. How often do you hear these stories in the media? You don't. Do people really care if say the biggest ape species ever Did cross the land bridge from Asia and Bigfoot is nothing more than an evolved cousin of Gigantopithecus? Na. It interupts what they know is real and gets
in the way of there Starbucks and cell phone mentality.
I don't mean to sound negative. I personally think Bigfoot is a fascinating subject. I didn't answer the question of this post at all, did I? Great post GeneRector!

If you seriously want to find Bigfoot (if it exists) you'd have to beat the bushes like they do for tiger hunts in India. You'd need hundreds of men in a coordinated effort to drive it into an exposed area where it could be captured. JMO

Problem is in order to be captured or killed, it must be flesh & blood...

Which all evidence points to the conclusion they are not....

But that's a conclusion most don't want to accept..

Why be so cryptic about it? Do you have some kind of occult knowledge concerning bigfoot that you can't reveal for some reason?

I have a knowlege about many paranormal things that none here would understand.

Interesting. That's been the #1 claim of all occultists/mystics throughout history.

pastorp · « **Reply #50 on:** March 03, 2012, 08:30:50 AM »

Well despite Swampys claims I don't believe one will ever be found because they don't exist. If they did some redneck would a brought one in by now.

.

I've traveled & hunted all over the USA. Up & down the east & western mountains. I've lived with Indian tribes and listened to their legends. I believe their is a basis to their legends but it's not flesh & blood. So you can't kill it.

I met big foot in a prison in central New York. I used to go into this prison for meetings and while there met an inmate named Tex, he had size 22 feet and he just loved the fact that N.Y. had to pay to get shoes made for him.

pastorp · « **Reply #52 on:** March 03, 2012, 11:25:36 AM »

Well now there, spikehorn. There's a Bigfoot I can believe exists. Size 22. Wow.

Was he 8 ft tall and real Harry all over?

Howdy! What do you think people who claim to have seen a Sasquatch are seeing out there? Some consistency seems to be a tall, hairy, bipedal creature. And what is making the footprints? Surely thousands of people are not imagining what they see? A mystery in that a skeleton or a body has ever been found. We have technology today with satellites that could really assist in a search for bigfoot. Maybe it is time for such a search to begin. Always, Gene

Are you a deer hunter? If so answer truthfully. How many times have you swore there was a deer "out there" only to find as the angle of the sun or cloud cover reveals the "deer" to be a tuft of grass a tree limb and a shadow that have combined to become the front quarter of a nice whitetail doe? The human brain will do its best to make the pieces (visual images) fit the puzzle it is working on.

My wife has been steadily losing her vision for a number of years. I have been reading and researching everything I find to try and explain the problem to myself and others as to what her condition is. Search and you will find vision is a curious thing. It is simply the brains current interpretation of the light presented at that particular time. Optical illusions of light and shadow are the easiest to understand for most.

That my friend is the "scientific" explanation of a person seeing what they want to see. I'm not trying to say they are making stuff up. They want to see what they believe, and the brain accommodates their desire.

GeneRector · « **Reply #55 on:** March 03, 2012, 07:01:39 PM »

Howdy! The first couple of times I went deer hunting I sure thought I saw deer a couple of times, but was not there. I was in need of glasses at the time for nearsightedness, but did not know it. I thought I saw a bear dead on the side of a highway once, but it proved to be a ranch raised bison that some truck hit. You can really see things that are not real. Back when I was single, women sure looked prettier at closing time at the dance hall. Guess beauty is in the eye of the beer holder! Always, Gene

PS: With all of the modern satellite imaging that can pick out Bin Laden in a group, you would think that such technology could find a Bigfoot or any other creature walking through a forest, etc.

All quite true. Our brains naturally look for patterns in things. That's why there are so many images of the Virgin Mary or Jesus found on burnt tortillas.

It's not just with visual images either. Think about some of the conspiracy theorists. They regularly put very plausible (on the surface) sounding scenarios together from bits and pieces of data that really aren't connected at all. However, they interpret data to make it fit into whatever mould they've committed themselves to. "When you've got a hammer in your hand, everything looks like a nail."

Combine the above with a few faked pieces of "evidence" (certain footprints come to mind), questionable eyewitness accounts and some nebulous visual images we see with our own eyes. It's not hard to see how serious self-deception can happen, and most people are too proud to admit that what they firmly believe could be dead wrong.

Magicians, mentalists, faith healers, etc. all manipulate their audiences by toying with the same basic properties of the human brain. We often don't need someone else to fool us though; we can do a pretty good job of it on our own.

And all that is the reason eye witness accounts of a crime is the least reliable evidence against a person accused of a crime. DNA evidence is reversing case after case of people convicted of crimes because of eye witnesses.

I just watched a short video of a suposed bigfoot taken on a logging road near Ketchikan, AK. Thats about 20 miles from my home. It's quite the rage locally. Honestly, the film quality was not good and most shots were through heavy brush, but to me, a life long hunter, It sure looked like a bear...

Howdy! I wonder if someone walking to a hunting stand or area dressed in a "gilly suit" could be mistaken for a Bigfoot? What about the footprints? What explanations are there to account for these? Always, Gene

pastorp · « **Reply #59 on:** March 05, 2012, 05:23:29 PM »

Well one of the native families told me about a noise on their front porch. When they opened the door there was very large tracks in the snow. They followed the tracks around the side of the house where they suddenly ended in the open.

you tell me what made those tracks.

But I bet it was something not of this earth.
