I do not want Bigfoot in a zoo. Bigfoot to me is an unproven creature. Science shares that same view. I'm with Grover Kranz who said we need a body and Grover was packing heat. He said the first guy to kill one would get an award. The second guy would get the eclectic chair. Since it is an unproven creature, I can make peace with killing the first one as tragic as it would be. As far as the Thylacine or any other extinct but KNOWN animal I am not OK with shooting even one. We already drove the Thylacine to extinction. If there are a few out there, they deserve a chance to reverse what we caused. There is a difference between knowing you are doing something horrible vs doing something which might be determined horrible by mistake or good intentions. Good luck determining which is which.

...or there are no agenda or actions required by anybody. If there are very few of something and the terrain is hard to find those very few that accounts for very few legitimate sightings or reports. I say legit as some of those sightings could be a false storytelling, well-intentioned misidentification, and others. Even if all were legit sightings, those are still few in numbers vs the task to finding bigfoot. 1 needle in a large haystack is hard to find. 5,000 in that same haystack would be expected to be easy to find one. How many needles are out there? What size is the haystack? That may be enough to explain it.

Not so sure. Many whistleblowers have been threatened. And some scientists have disappeared. Is this a grassroots movement to get the truth to the public? Or some red flag event where the government is purposely leaking stuff while acting tough? Dunno. 1) No it wouldn’t. You can point to the child sized pilot chairs but mainstream Science will still want proof. The military is using scientists too. But they are not allowed to publish findings to peer reviewed publications. Part of science is now dark. And has been since the bomb. What else are they hiding in there? 2) Any scientist that can get their work published and accepted in a peer reviewed publication. But if your work happens to pertain with above top secret research? We know who the real boss is. Dr. Gary Nolan has stated they are building a retrieval team to beat the military out to these crash sites. All I can say is? Good Luck! 👀 You and I both agree something funky is going on with Bigfoot as well. Someone doesn’t want them discovered for what ever the reason.

Hey y’all, new member here from the Southeast US. Never had an encounter myself but I want to believe.

Correct. But the propaganda pressure is on the public and increasing to accept their existence. Watch and see where that leads over the next couple of decades. Question #1: If a Bob Lazar described craft (or several) are truly in the possession of the U.S. Government in Nevada, would that negate the requirement for biological carcasses of male/female aliens in order to declare their existence? Question #2: Is there any particular individual who, if he/she publicly announced the existence of sasquatches or aliens, would then establish them into the record? Who, in the end, actually is "The Boss"?

No. Extinct species get a pass. Entire species are recognized by just a few bones. But not extant ones. They require two complete skeletons. One male and one female. They are extant because people allegedly see them walking around the forest. If they were extinct then no one would report them. It would be up to paleontologists to find them in a dig site. Like Denisovans. No. Aliens have not been proven to science. Scientists tell the government all the time to back up its claims with physical evidence. Of course aliens come with a bunch of national security risks. Like their technological advanced vehicles. Which is what the government hides behind. Science and government often times are at loggerheads. Because REAL science is about getting to truth. But human agendas are always getting in the way.

Ok, how do we know they are extant? I don't really get what Science requires I guess.. A pinky bone for one, a male and a female type specimen for the other? That doesn't seem reasonable but, you will probably tell me that Science doesn't care what is reasonable, they just demand what they must have before they go out on a limb. It's public opinion, their tenure, potential ridicule, problems at home, etc. that hold most of them back, in my opinion. When our Government released the 'UFO files' did that prove the existence of extra-terrestrial space craft to Science? Too many people just don't care about anything that they perceive as not directly affecting them, especially if it requires them to think.

Nocturnal theory in avoidance of Homo Sapiens? Another point…. Ostman said Sasquatch hands were “scooped”. So was Naledi! 👍

It’s simply how scientific classification works. It’s your choice to participate or not. But regardless of who chooses to participate? Science will require one male and one female type specimen. It’s required for every extant species on the planet. Extinct species get a pass. Denisovans were discovered with a DNA extraction of a pinky bone. Allegedly they are extinct…. So if anyone here is collecting DNA samples? Or any evidence of this species? Just understand where it’s headed! I have my own theory as to why this hasn’t happened yet. I think the deep state is very happy with the arrangement currently of deny, obfuscation and ridicule. And so far science has fallen in line for the most part. And so we as a community are a bunch of delusional crackpots out in the forest looking for Pixies and Gnomes.🤷‍♂️

While the earliest version of this story was published in The Daily Oklahoman of Oklahoma City (OK) on August 21, 1977, at the height of the Adair County Monster scare, that article was scanned badly, making it hard to read. Therefore, enjoy this story published in the Columbia (MO) Daily Tribune on August 30, 1977.

Those are totally valid points/questions. I think we can only speak for ourselves and, as for me: Success at looking for Bigfoot would be seeing one or more in a situation that provided undeniable confidence that I was seeing the creature(s) that have already been described thousands of times. The sighting would need to be unambiguous and, it would be great if there was at least one other person present so that, if nothing else, we could talk about it. (I had such an experience with a 'UFO' decades ago, but I was alone in my truck. I have always been grateful for that experience because it broadened my horizons, even though I can't say if it was an Alien spacecraft, or not. It was definitely an unidentifiable flying object, beyond the scope of anything that I can imagine to be man-made.) For others, perhaps the majority of the BFF membership, success only means one thing: Scientific Acceptance and Classification. I get that, but if a Bigfoot body on a slab is required and one cannot be obtained without deliberately killing one then, it would not be worth it, in my opinion. And, if I see a Thylacine, I'm not going to shoot that either. I would tell my story, just as I did with the UFO and as I would with Bigfoot then, whoever didn't believe me or, thought I was crazy, could take a long walk off a short bridge. lol

These reports first found on the Southern Oregon History website. The first story is from The Morning Call published in San Francisco (CA) on April 11, 1891. The second was attributed to the San Jose News. As I can't find that newspaper, I include the article as published on the Southern Oregon History website.

Forums member HOLDMYBEER shared this nugget of information in his post at https://bigfootforums.com/topic/146822-interview-pastor-rollin-swanson-april-22-2016/ and has graciously allowed its reposting in this thread. Pastor Rollin A. Swanson asked Roger, then on his deathbed, whether he believed in the reality of Bigfoot. If Roger had a guilty conscience about hoaxing the P-G film, this would have been the time to cleanse his soul. Instead, he unreservedly reaffirmed his belief that Bigfoot was a living creature. Pastor Swanson's letter to the editor was published in the Tri-City Herald of Pasco (WA) on April 22, 2016.

Derek will be returning for part two of the The Triangle Series. Derek Condit, an author, researcher, psychic intuitive, inventor, U.S. Army veteran, and former Washington State correctional officer. Based in the Pacific Northwest, Derek explores the fascinating intersection of documented history, eyewitness testimony, unexplained phenomena, folklore, and personal experience. His work examines the stories and events that challenge our understanding of the world around us. Derek is the creator of The Triangle Series, a collection of books investigating regions associated with unusual activity including UFO encounters, Bigfoot and cryptid sightings, paranormal experiences, unexplained lights, historic mysteries, and other events that defy easy explanation. Check Out The Triangle Series His approach is open minded and story-driven. Rather than dismissing experiences simply because they fall outside conventional understanding, Derek allows witnesses to share their stories and examines the possibilities surrounding what they encountered. His interest in the unexplained is also deeply personal. Derek has experienced unexplained phenomena firsthand, including a Bigfoot encounter in Washington State. As Derek explains: "My connection to these subjects is also deeply personal. Both my 87-year-old father, a former NSA agent, and I have had our own Bigfoot encounters. Mine occurred in Washington State, while his took place in Northern California." Derek's 16 years as a Washington State correctional officer also provided him with numerous unusual experiences. Some occurred inside the Washington State Reformatory, while others took place during night-shift assignments outside the prison. These firsthand encounters, combined with years of research, have shaped Derek's unique perspective on the unexplained.

Ronnie Roseman returns to Bigfoot Society with new details from one of Oregon’s most intense Sasquatch research areas near Oakridge. Ronnie shares reports of strange structures hidden along remote trails, unsettling vocalizations from the bottoms, a meadow covered in Bigfoot tracks measuring up to 23 inches, and encounters where multiple unseen creatures appeared to position themselves around researchers. He also reveals one of the strangest experiences he has ever kept private: a possible Bigfoot standing on a distant dirt road that Ronnie and Duane watched for roughly 15 minutes. When they returned weeks later, the road itself appeared to be gone. This episode goes deep into decades of field experience, aggressive nighttime encounters, Sasquatch behavior, and the questions Ronnie still cannot answer.

Cliff Barackman and Matt Pruitt speak with folklorist Dr. Lynne McNeill about the intersection of folklore, science, and the sasquatch! Dr. McNeill is an Associate Professor of Folklore at Utah State University. Her research focuses on legend and belief, cryptids, digital culture, and the ways that folklore develops and spreads through communities. Dr. McNeill discusses what folklore actually is, why folklorists study it, and what traditional stories tell us about the world around us. The conversation explores scientific discoveries that were preceded by folklore and traditional knowledge, what the persistence of sasquatch legends might mean from a folklorist’s perspective, and how the internet and social media have transformed modern perceptions of the sasquatch phenomenon! See Cliff and Dr. McNeill speak at Wild About The West on Saturday, September 12th at the Nora Eccles Harrison Museum of Art on the Utah State University campus in Logan, Utah! See Cliff and Pruitt at Cryptid Con in Florence, IN, November 21-22! Sign up for our weekly bonus podcast "Beyond Bigfoot & Beyond" and ad-free episodes!
