My problem is that I'm a death sentence to everything I bring out there with me. An iridium satellite phone was among the gizmos that were vaporized on my moose hunt last year. No more of it. I need to transcend all that silliness and go like my old buddy Don. Just go out there and disappear in The Land of the Lost. Who knows? Maybe being kidnapped into sexual slavery by a female sasquatch might not be as bad as driving to the bottom of a frozen lake?

Don't put yourself down because with enough practice and messing around with new technology we can eventually make progress. I hope the Starlink technology is not too hard to figure out so we all can use it when we need it.

What are you saying? Are you saying the Sasquatch family encounters a human being walking along a trail, and the Sasquatch's capture this person who later escaped. They don't watch the person very well and the human being escapes from captivity. I think this story that you're telling sounds like what happened to a man In the 1800s in British Columbia? You probably heard of a guy by the name of Osterman who was cruising timber or just wandering up the hills along a British Columbian water way. I believe he parked his boat and decided to walk up the hill and form an overnight camp. During the night a Bigfoot came down the hill from its family lair and picked up this man and threw him over the Bigfoot shoulder and packed him to the Sasquatch's camp. The man survived the trip and he found himself in the middle of of Sasquatch's camp with its kids and wife. The kids looked over Ostermin pretty well. They were all curious. Olsterman decided he would plan an escape. He had tobacco for chewing and he made a big wad of it and gave it to the Sasquatch. The Sasquatch ate the wad of tobacco and became very dizzy which gave Olsterman a chance to escape. It happened long ago up in British Columbia in the 1800s .

Your cell phone will now send sat messages. So that put a big hurt on Inreach. I rented a sat phone one time I packed into central Idaho for 2 weeks. Pretty cool to walk out into the meadow and talk to loved ones. Cost was just so prohibitive. Star Link is where it’s at now. Just throw it on the ground and your watching the ball game or texting. My problem is I am too damn dumb to operate half this stuff.

Published in the Latrobe (PA) Bulletin on December 27, 1973. Unfortunately, this is likely a group whose research has been lost to time.

Daneil Perez said on a Podcast essentially There are no true Bigfoot experts- only reports. We get reports. Reports may be 100% accurate, lies or anything in between. Well-intentioned people can get it wrong and still be convinced they saw bigfoot. Also, people could have a home-run sighting and still not come forward due to some social pressure. We should take the same hardline about a Bigfoot reports. It could be these reports might be true. I would think more track sightings would more commonly report multiple tracks from multiple members in multiple sizes but all with the same character on the same type of surface. I met a guy I'll call Charlie here in Iowa who claimed several NFL players (from our mutual favorite team) go deer hunting on his family farm every year. It's very possible as I know a farmer who has rich finance guys from Chicago every year to hunt deer on his land paying top dollar. Charlie claimed these NFL players were coming down and he would bring them by my place to meet them. It never happened. He said, "They decided they didn't want to go hunting because it was going to rain" He did claim they came down the following week as they have done for several years sometimes bringing other players. When I asked him to see any pic on his cell phone, he didn't have one. When I asked him how these two active NFL players (who played on Sunday and practice all week) had time to go deer hinting during the active NFL season he couldn't explain it. As you can imagine, no matter how passionate his story he was comfortable lying to my face. Eyewitness can also have bad motivations as well as good or even be mentally ill. I don't have a standard. Can we define out of most reports what a typical report looks like. My guess is a typical encounter would be a witness who comes across a sudden bigfoot sighting. Bigfoot notices the witness and then quickly moves on easily disappearing the surrounding terrain. There may or may not be odor and there may or may not be footprints based on the terrain. I have NOTHING to base this one with any certainty. We have people on the BFF who attribute all kind of magic powers to Bigfoot some of this earth and some from outer space. The people in the above report (the one that came up when I clicked on it) said they saw what the saw at a distance and night. It could very well be. Like any story we would have to dig deeper. The report isn't that impressive- at least the one that came up. Q: Say the EXACT same story or report was made but the witness was (former poster) KItkaze. Why does the exact same report suddenly become suspect if made by Kitkaze? The facts are the same, but the likely motivation could be a skeptic set-up. to test how in depth the report would be investigated. The report could be just to create a "Gotcha" moment. All reports should demand full, strong scrutiny. We can't be hard of Bob Heironimus or Mr. Morris and let other claims stand without an equally strong investigation.

True, but getting a cell phone pic of a bigfoot kidnapper isn't as likely as an electronic signal in Antarctica since there hasn't been an alleged bigfoot kidnapping in a long, long time. There have certainly been very close encounters that might have begun as attempted kidnappings, but I'm pretty confident that such an allegation won't survive your legal, analytical scrutiny. Like this one? The potential victim didn't have a cell phone, and the encounter took place in the dark, anyway.........but he had a gun........: https://www.bfro.net/GDB/show_report.asp?id=15821

Getting a signal out in the middle of nowhere is not the same as having a Cell phone have the ability to take a picture.

Another thing I've learned through repeated death-defying adventures: Electronic devices are pretty much useless. I've been shot, drowned, set afire, lost, broke down, etc. I'm not buying anymore PLBs, Mini Reach's, Onyx's, E-Trex's, etc. They're expensive to replace. I'll fight my way out. It has worked for me every time. The gizmos haver failed every time. No narrative, like the marketing BS. That's pure experience.

^^^ One thing about Bigfoot. He never kidnaps families who own a cell phone.

This article (which was widely printed) from The Philadelphia (PA) Inquirer on September 01, 1973, makes clear that the authorities were not buying into the Bigfoot craze. John Green included several of these encounters in his database and they are more easily available to Forum members thanks to Redbone; see https://bigfootforums.com/forum/162-northeast/.

How about consideration of possibilities that fit the current evidence, testimony, or lack thereof? I suggested the thought that, since three Bigfoot kidnapping stories indicated a family structure for them (which certainly fits primitive human sociology), maybe aged and injured sasquatches are cared for by their family members. That suggestion doesn't prove that sasquatches exist, that they're primitive humans, that they kidnap loggers and aboriginal hunters, etc., which are all "narratives". It's a thought. Nothing more. BTW..............there have been sightings on a regular basis. They just don't appear to fit your standards or "narratives"................ Maybe this sasquatch family "teleported" into these guys visual scape in 2019?: http://www.bfro.net/GDB/show_report.asp?id=62354

Bigfoot's needs and abilities are always stretched into whatever shape is needed to fit the narrative. <--- This almost always makes the narrative wrong. -Say Bigfoot is sick, suddenly there are more fellow Bigfeet out there bringing him food. -Say we can't find a body, Bigfoot bury their dead -Don't have sightings in decades of looking, Bigfoot has the ability to teleport. When Questions about Bigfoot arise, we need to look at the most likely scenario. Sure, shows like Finding Bigfoot seems to know what Bigfoot's favorite baseball team is, or his favorite color. Not bad considering they have never found Bigfoot let alone studied the actual issue in Queston. Yes, we can imagine various scenarios for Bigfoot. But if bigfoot is old or injured is just more likely to die or get eaten by another predator. Nothing extreme needs to explain it. If the food supply dries up for Bigfoot in one area, like most animals (or people) it would move on to an area where it needs are available. Billy the Kidd (of whomever) robbed banks because, "That is where the money is" Simplicity rules. Simplicity is the marketplace of nature. Brody: Now this guy, he... he keeps swimmin' around in a place where the feeding is good until the food supply is gone, right? Hooper: It's called "territoriality". It's just a theory that I happen to... agree with. It is easy to imagine elaborate scenarios to explain all things Bigfoot. When Bigfoot is not able to meet its needs, it dies. It will live so long as it can. We don't have to imagine much beyond that

Might want to pin this one for a bit.

This is a good full account, published in The Caledonian (Edinburgh, Scotland) Mercury on April 07, 1800. It does sound like a feral child, although interesting questions are raised.

What happens when a Missouri landowner decides not to fear Bigfoot — but to befriend them? In this intense and emotional episode, we sit down with Dave, a rural homesteader from northern Missouri, whose property has become the stage for over a decade of Sasquatch encounters. From machetes mysteriously returned after use, to a Sasquatch peeking around the garage and petting his dogs — Dave shares astonishing firsthand experiences, including infrasound attacks, vocal mimicry, and sightings of multiple generations of these elusive beings. Plus, hear from Ryan in Virginia, who was followed by two towering creatures for 12 hours after getting lost in Shenandoah National Park — and the shocking confirmation from a rescue worker that “they’re out here.” This episode spans Missouri to Virginia, from playful encounters to terrifying confrontations.
