      It doesn't help the show Finding Bigfoot never seems to actually find Bigfoot.   As some point it becomes a joke which I have to think does little to help interest in Bigfoot.  Because of this show, there has to be part of the public who would say, "Bigfoot, isn't that those people who are out there in the woods but never find him?"

      What's the possibility that the US government knowingly allows Bigfoot to harvest humans within government controlled forests, national parks etc ? Hidden in plain sight because as we know the missing are not recorded, is someone turning a blind eye as long as the harvesting (mainly) stays withing boundaries and acceptable numbers?

      We have 8 pages of comments on this topic alone.   We may not be what we once were but we are certainly far from being dead.

      I will say I have not had any Bigfoot experience personally.  My guess is such an experience would be life-changing to those who have.  They might report it or not, but I have to think someone having such an experience is changed forever.     I agree as you say Bigfoot has become a cultural thing.  Who knows if this is a good thing or a bad thing.     I don't know if my childhood was typical but most of us who grew up back in the day (I was born in 1966) grew up with 3 channels on TV to watch.  If the Wizard of Oz was on you watched it that night or you couldn't see it again for another year.  Assuming 1/3rd of the country (3 channels to watch) was watching that means millions all shared the same basic experiences then.   There were a lot fewer things competing for our time.  I have to think for those who grew up then they all had a similar view of Bigfoot.   I always felt then Bigfoot or the Yeti was always presented as a real creature.  It seems to me the feeling was more of a universal understanding because the few outlets presenting Bigfoot as a topic (Peter Graves) made the argument to say Bigfoot DOES exist vs DOESN'T exist.      The internet and media are now like McDonalds.  There used to be only a few items to choose from.  Now they try to offer everything.

      Would have answered this to, but you posted just as I hit send.  I'm one of the "general interest" folks. While my wife and I hike a fair bit, I've never seen Bigfoot (or a black bear) in the woods on hikes and don't expect to see a Bigfoot.  But its dragged me in because if its all a hoax, or misidentifications, that should be fairly easy to demonstrate. And it hasn't been.
