That could be gunfire or maybe not? Then again at 7:15 the dog is starring and it doesn’t sound like gunfire at all. It’s worth listening to with the story that accompanies it as he makes no claims that there is wood knocks.

Deep along Oregon’s Siletz River, Nick from Backwoodz Bigfoot carried a speaker into the mountains and played an unfamiliar song across a remote forest valley. Whoops, tree knocks and movement began rising from the timber—and the responses appeared to come from multiple directions. Nick returns to Bigfoot Society with recent reports from the Oregon Coast, including a figure seen beside a creek, a photographer followed along the trail at Munson Creek Falls, repeated activity near Mount Hebo and two encounters reported on the same island in Detroit Lake. He also takes us inside the 2026 Sasquatch Summerfest in Oakridge, where private conversations with legendary researchers led to stories involving caves, close-range encounters and unexplained nighttime activity beside a tent. This episode travels through some of Oregon’s most active Bigfoot country with a researcher who continues returning to the locations where witnesses say something is waiting in the woods.

With the caveat that I'm listening on my phone's speakers, that sounds like gunfire to me. I hear it again at 6:51 of the video. I'll have to try some headphones later.

Camper doesn’t realize Bigfoot is knocking at 4:43 in the background play it for yourself. I know it’s real because nobody has even mentioned it!

Hello, I have been interested in Bigfoot since I was a kid, often imagining them as a natural evolution of one or more ancient human species. I became convinced of their existence when I was camping in Utah and 2 subjects flanked our tent. The flank was proceeded by a large stone being thrown next to the tent and after listening to the cautious approach (bi-pedal footsteps), the subject on the right clacked their teeth or mimicked a rock clack with their mouth – clacking three time. This was immediately answered by the subject on the left who also clacked 3 times. In that instant when I heard the clacks, I knew, without a doubt, these creatures were highly intelligent. I’m here for more!

If government will go to these lengths to protect certain trees (especially just maintaining the secrecy/remoteness strategies), would they do likewise to protect a rare human sub-species? I think so............

Bigfoot Bash tells the tale of Sasquatch at sighting area WKBN.comView the full article

GrayBear who lives in Trout Lake, Washington writes "I've attached a thermal video that I believe shows a female Sasquatch. If you watch the beginning of the video on a large screen, you may notice a smaller thermal signature appear on the left side of the tree. You can see what appears to be glowing eyes before the figure backs behind the tree. A moment later, the larger thermal signature emerges from the right side. A very large Sasquatch then bends down, and it appears that she may be picking something up. I refer to the larger figure as a female because of the apparent juvenile nearby. Pay close attention to the size and proportions of the figure especially the large arms, hands, thighs, and torso. I was also able to enlarge a still frame from the video, and I believe I may have captured what looks like a face. I've attached that still image as well. This occurred on Friday, May 1st. We returned to the area Saturday morning to review the site and found what appeared to be 15.6-inch footprints around the same tree where the Sasquatch was filmed. We went back again that night and experienced some additional high strangeness, including an X-shaped glyph that still has me completely baffled. Needless to say, it was quite a field-research weekend. Take a close look at the still image and let me know if you see what I'm seeing. Follow the arm upward toward the shoulder and neck area. From there, you may be able to make out what appears to be a face. To me, it looks like the nose is glowing, followed by what appear to be the eyes and an ear. I'd really like to hear what you think. We're getting ready to head back out into the Gifford for another couple of days of field research, this time with thermal drones and audio equipment. We've had some unusual audio activity in the area previously, so we're going back to see what happens during our night walks. Another field-research adventure is about to begin."

I don't even insist on one. But I don't write the rules. But once discovery happens I would be for the most rigid protection for the species. Harming one would be a hanging offense in my book.

I've become a wuss. I don't even want to eat bear anymore. A friend gave me some bear sausage the other day, and it was gross. I'm spoiled, even with high meat prices. I've got the money now. Attach enough money to it, and they'll fall all over themselves to prove it.

Never mind. It occurs to me now that a captured Bigfoot would probably never be released. And, if a pair is required for classification, omg, what if they have 'kids' out there... : / I guess I don't want to be any part of the 'required proof'. Maybe I will see them in the woods someday (preferably with a few friends and some big guns (for protection only), just in case they attack. My 99.9% belief might then be confirmed and maybe we could sit around the camp-fire later with the Bigfeet and all sing Kumbaya.

Yep. I would probably eat it if I had to. It's legal to eat road-kill here although, I usually just go to the store. Although, with the cuts in food-safety (including a 19% reduction to the FDA work-force) a squished squirrel or, a drowned rat doesn't sound too bad right now.. "No doubt, but Norse is correct that Science as an industry will simply not play ball until somebody delivers a carcass and essentially rubs their noses in it." I agree that Universities, most private companies, governments, etc. are not going to really get involved until Joe six-pack, wife and kids are convinced that they exist. 'Science' is often done by people who are unencumbered by those institutions. I don't know the best way to prove Bigfoot. I think one (or two, if Norse insists ) could be captured alive. I mean if we can capture elephants and whale sharks?? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Ever hear of Bush Meat?

No doubt, but Norse is correct that Science as an industry will simply not play ball until somebody delivers a carcass and essentially rubs their noses in it. And I submit that is just one of the reasons why government has decided that the best thing for them as a species is to remain a myth. And frankly, it's my opinion that aliens are science fiction, and Science (as an industry) is playing ball on that field because every base hit equals Big Money, government is managing game for spinoff technology, and the taxpayer plays because they have no choice.
