I check their site EVERY day. As well as www.bfro.net. Anyone who reads the archives of those 2 sites will not walk in the woods with the same attitude that they USE to have. Pretty chilling stuff.
Looking at the sightings report, he certainly gets around a lot. Imagine those frequent flyer miles. http://www.bfro.net/GDB/#usa
Ignorance is bliss, and most people are not aware of what is actually walking around out in the woods of eastern Texas and Oklahoma, or western Arkansas and northern Louisiana. Judging from many of those sighting reports, some people's frame of mind changes when they abruptly face one of these creatures. From what I've read, most people find it pretty scary to suddenly confront what amounts to a genuine monster in the woods. I've read plenty about Bigfoot and I would still probably find it pretty scary to suddenly run across an 8 foot tall hairy creature in the woods.
The more appropriate question would be: Has anybody actually TRIED to catch one? The answer is only minimumly....yes. Around 1970, when Bigfoot was sighted repeatedly around the small town of Fouke, Arkansas (where it is referred to as the Fouke Monster), there was one guy who built a giant cage trap and baited it with food and set it at the edge of a field where the creature had been seen. But we all know how wary animals are. So one can only imagine what a giant intelligent primate would have thought about walking into a huge UNNATURAL looking steel cage to obtain some tasty tidbits. Nothing was ever caught.
If you've got hair from "Bigfoot" then no one should object to DNA analysis that you could then compare to other creatures (forest animals, apes, man, etc). Me thinks it's much better to leave science out of this, however. How will you sell DVD's and memorabilia if it proves you wrong? C.
Oh come on, that could be anyone's mother-in-law on a bad hair day!!!! The only thing out there are some drunk-ass hillbilly's perpetuating a hoax, which again brings me back to the mother-in-law theory.
Not drunk, but DUMB. Anybody who would sneak around in the dark near somebody's rural home or farm is one extremely STUPID IDIOTIC individual. You would quickly find yourself on the receiving end of a .30-.30 rifle or a 12 gauge shotgun. First you would be attacked by dogs, then shot. Not exactly a fun evening for a few joking hillbillys.
Watching shows or reading stories about Bigfoot always makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up. I have a book that tells the accounts of the sightings from each state and it is hard to beleive some stories but other give me the hibby jibbies.
When I was in junior high school (1969), one of my teachers had a brother who lived in northern California. His brother was a real outdoor guy who roamed around the woods. Teacher told me that his brother was right around the area where the famous Patterson film was made. All the talk that his brother heard was that Bigfoot was real and the film was real. But after you do some extensive reading on the subject, you will find as many, if not more, sightings of Bigfoot in the eastern Texas and Oklahoma area with some overflow of sightings in Arkansas and Louisiana.
What's the difference between Bigfoot and certain ethnic females? Well, one is about 7-8 feet tall, covered with matted hair and smells really bad and the other... . . . . . . . . . . . . .has really big feet.
Did you guys hear about the latest sighting? "'Bigfoot' hair tabbed big hoax by expert" http://www.canoe.ca/NewsStand/LondonFreePress/News/2005/07/29/1151816-sun.html
I like the outdoors quite a bit, love Natural Parks and stuff ... yet I've seen a grand total of 2 bear and one moose. And they're not really rare animals. So, statistically, there could very well be some sort of mumbo jumbo monster in the woods. However I'm a skeptic, and can only find some satisfaction seeing that the guys who chase BigFoot seem to enjoy themselves. I'd hate to waste my free time like that!
I think you meant Hir-suit?? Hehehe I'm baaaaaacccckkkkk. Thanks Rob, I used the time to wax the SA...speaking of wax. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Did you hear the story about the Ferrari in the barn? A guy went to look at it, and it turned out not to be a Ferrari. We can therefore conclusively state that all stories about Ferraris in a barn are false. Case closed? Hardly. ONE case in California or Texas in no way difinitively disproves everything. And notice how these revelations from some guy with a fake bigfoot suit or a pair of phony feet always come out with their stories AFTER everybody else is dead that can contradict the story? Or sue them for libel and slander. How convenient.
Ya know, what was the story recently about the HUGE waterfall that was recently "discovered' in a CA state park. No one has seen that waterfall in like 100 years. It's HUGE. Well htat waterfall is loud, noisy beutiful and stays in one spot. No one had seen it. Now you are doubting that a small by comparison "animal" that is reclusive and moves around isn't seen, so it must be fake. Not sure I buy that logic.
That waterfall had been visited recently by people in the park, it just wasn't on any map. Park officials finally found the location and added it to the roster. In this age of cheap cameras, infrared technology, night vision, etc please explain why there has not been a movement to take all of the 'sighting' locations and triangulate a few positions where you could set up 10-20 motion-detecting cameras for a few months/years at a time. IMHO, if they exist, they are living creatures that eat, **** and die like everything else. There's no evidence of any of those things occuring. Are we honestly to believe that a creature smart enough to cover its tracks, remain out of the eye of humans and possibly bury the dead would not be the least bit curious about us? Their believed 'behavior' dictates that there would be some sort of social structure within the species (passing along experience), but each one seems to act alone (maybe they hold a yearly conference in Arlie's cave, I don't know) so how do they learn to fear us? It doesn't add up. C.
You are correct on the above statement. And there is a group that is informally trying to monitor trails and sighting areas with cameras. Just a few weeks ago, my next door neighbor showed me a game cam photograph of a COUGAR that a friend had taken right here in Pulaski County, Arkansas. We are the home of the biggest city in the state with hundreds of thousands of people, yet the western part of the county is heavily wooded and a cougar was prowling the woods within a quarter mile of populated areas. Those game cameras are still quite expensive for one or two people to buy a dozen of them to blanket an area with. The technology does exist, and I think that it's only a matter of time before THE video will be taken to set the scientific world on it's ear. Remember that the snow leopard was almost a fictional beast when it was finally captured on video by some hard core scientists with hard drive recorders and cameras. As for being curious about us, they are. If one reads several hundred sighting reports, there are MANY instances of Bigfoot creeping around rural homes and farms. Some have been spotted watching children at play and even watching trains roll down the tracks in rural areas.
