I’ve seen guys roll tires down a hill too.

You can set up a 1895 or 1894 or 336 Marlin guide gun very similar to a shotgun for quick acquisitions. https://www.offgridweb.com/preparation/marlin-336-dark-series-review/ But you can buy dangerous game ammo in .45-70. I know there are people that talk up shotgun slugs for bear defense. But nobody in Africa hunts with one. A shotgun with slugs is the best that platform can offer, and you can shoot grouse and rabbits with it. Very versatile. But not as dedicated or capable as a big bore rifle. https://www.garrettcartridges.com/4570.html And then practice, practice. I cannot right now with my chest unfortunately. And it’s fun too!

I suspect you are a far better shot than I

At Tings, massive manhunt for mythical ape-man The Boulder MonitorView the full article

Against a human in CQB? Sure. Against a massive apex predator that will rip your arms off? I want penetration through bone. Soft lead pellets don’t penetrate well. And I want more powder behind the projectile. More oomph. I want exit holes through bone and tissue. I don’t want flatten lead mashed against thick bone.

Says the guy with the wild claim of humans deforesting the great plains with fire.

Hi. I'm David from Texas. I like tamales and have been interested in Bigfoot since I was scared witless after watching The Legend of Boggy Creek when I was a kid. We lived near a creek, you see.

We absolutely don't yet know what we're dealing with, and there may well be many unknown entities in the forest. Most of the time you can't see them. Stick breaks, wood knocks, rock clacks and rock throwing could be initiated by anything including ghosts. For the sake of convenience we call it bigfoot. It could be gnomes or elves or spirits or aliens or anything. Need more proof.

What happens when a mother follows her autistic son's passion for Bigfoot into the forests of Colorado — and ends up having life-changing encounters of her own? In this heartfelt and mysterious episode, we sit down with Dana Beasley, also known as Sasquatch Mom, a Bigfoot researcher from the Pikes Peak region. Dana shares her incredible journey from being a fearful skeptic to becoming a dedicated field investigator, alongside her son Sam, whose experiences with vocalizations, thrown pinecones, and strange forest structures have left even seasoned researchers curious. You’ll hear stories from Rampart Range, Lost Creek Wilderness, and Skagway Reservoir — including mysterious whoops in the night, glowing eyes in the forest, and the moment they realized they might not be alone out there. More than just a cryptid story, this episode explores how the search for Sasquatch became a powerful tool for connection, healing, and transformation for one unique family.Topics covered:Autism and Bigfoot: Is there a connection?Strange encounters in Colorado's forestsParenting through shared adventureHow Bigfoot research brought a family closer🟢 Subscribe for more encounters, mysteries, and human stories behind the search for Bigfoot. 🎥 Check out Dana’s YouTube channel: Sasquatch Mom - https://www.youtube.com/@squatchmom 📰 Read her stories and fiction: https://danasusanbeasley.substack.com Sasquatch Summerfest this year, is July 11th through the 12th, 2025.

Shotguns have a little more forgiveness in terms of aim. I'd prefer a shotty for a close quarters fight because 1. slam firing 2. spray area difference 3. no need to aim down scope

The beginning reminded me a little of the Bauman story, where they're not finding any "fur-bearing varmits" and so go ever deeper into the remote forest, just as these guys went from valley to valley, ever deeper! I'm just glad this story had no gamboiling involved!

I'm with Cryptid on that last point, at least to some extent. As for at this point we can't even be certain if what's being seen as "large hairy hominid" even represents a single species, or a spectrum of diverse species created by successive waves of migration, or speciation through isolation or selective factors within a habitat....as relatively closely related forms, hybridization may be ongoing, unless inhibited by their own cultural norms. But I do believe that eventually, or maybe tomorrow, proof/evidence of definite nature will be had. Of course the governmemt may finally choose disclosure of what they know as well.. As for the percentage of sightings that get reported to various record keeping groups, I d personally guess its no more than 5-10% at the very best, and probably well below that. Figure Joe Average may not even be aware of Bigfoot groups prior to a sighting, this their first recourse would be to call the police, or perhaps the forest service, which would usually result in mirthful dismissal, which could well make them all the more reluctant to pursue further efforts to report. Most nigfoot groups on say Facebook that I've seen run rampant with harshly critical elements that offer up more than enough critique, criticism, and questions of personal sobriety to turn anyone's thought away from reporting anything ever again!

That map of human migration has one element missing, and that is pathways made accessible by lowered sea levels during periods of glaciation. Drops of 200-400 feet have been reported for various ice ages, and these could result in significant expansions of habitable/traversable land. Its quite possible that much of man's prehistoric settlements could have taken advantage of these exposed coastal zones, and that untold habitations and artifacts, evidences of lost cultures could well be discovered within these now Oceanic sites.

In my opinion, he did not prove the existence of bigfoot in this video, however, I have faith that he will continue to be Thinker Thunker.

Breaking news: Bigfoot to stand trial at EMU on April 16 The Eastern EchoView the full article

Maybe, yeah. We have Darby Orcutt on the forum. It’s completely plausible that his current DNA study will reveal something about them. But, whether it’s someone on this forum or not, I’m confident science will eventually answer the question of what Bigfoot is.

You make some good points here. What I wish people understood is that these beings are literally everywhere there is a sufficient sized forested area to conceal them and to hunt, in my opinion. For people that want to kill one to get a body for science, I think they will have a better chance of knocking out God. There is a reason, the natives called them the great spirits of the forest. Do you believe that somebody on this forum will finally figure out what the Sasquatch is all about? After thousands of years, JOHN DOE, came along and solved the mystery, yeah, OK. Humanity is not there yet, at least I'm not. I only express what I see and experience. I have not experienced mind speak, or marbles dropping out of the air, or orbs or a UFO connection or anything like that, but I won't rule it out. We have to be open to all experiences as they occur, or we will miss much. All the large forests above 100acres perhaps, will have them, in my opinion. Their nature and the details are yet to be discovered. Maybe, it can only be discovered on a personal level, but I keep trying.

Very few sightings get reported in my opinion, because most people are either traumatized, or don't want to be ridiculed. It is much easier to just forget it ever happened. And the BFRO obviously would not ridicule the person, but by following a path of reporting and honestly admitting what they say to others, their friends and immediately family could ridicule them. That's the driver for not reporting.

That's not a misconception, If there's a footprint in a 10,000 acre forest, and I don't see it, that does mean that the footprint does not exist.

Is that a clan or just a family? To me a clan is multiple families.

No. I second to MIB's position - the occasional park ranger, Border Patrol officer, or Soldier on maneuvers has seen one and knows that Bigfoot exists, but even if reported, that information doesn't go very far up the bureaucratic food chain.

Yeah, I knew Banff had been mentioned on here so I searched the Forums. Seems like bear like to eat hikers there.

^^^ NorCal, I would think that after the popularity of Finding Bigfoot and other, less scientifically leaning shows (yes, I'm throwing that line out to the dire wolves), that the reporting percentage is higher - 15 to 20%. I don't doubt that its less than 50%. And its also clear that various organizations curate what's shown on their websites - whether to protect a study area, or because the report isn't credible even to them, or because the report doesn't fit their preferred narrative (killer Sasquatch that get from point to point in flying saucers, for example). The Forums are actually pretty good in that regard in that anyone can post (almost anything) that they claim to be a Bigfoot encounter. Definitely not saying that dredging through reports is the be-all, end-all, but I do believe its one leg for the stool of Bigfoot research.

Yes, Trogluddite, the other side of the Rockies from me, about a 10 hour drive east from my home. It's a great area, you'll love it.
