      We started out with this paragraph below and have diverged with good discussions with writers such as Norseman, Backdoc, Hunster and a few others.   "Later footprints are cast which puts the creature on higher steps then a top trusted scientist observes the creature and its level is boosted higher on that path to discovery. Later hair, more scientist observe it, and then motion picture evidence is brought in and the creature reaches higher up on the ladder of discovery which is now more difficult due to artificial intelligence or AI. Does artificial intelligence which raised the bar on photographic evidence. Possibly some creatures have reached step 9, yet a body or living speciment has not been brought in so it stays on step 9. When we put bigfoot on this ladder, a huge percentage of scientist with higher degrees in zoology agree that bigfoot is on what step? What's your opinion? What step do most credited biologist place bigfoot? What step do you place bigfoot and why?" original post"   As Norseman stated, Canada's border is filmed and evidence of bigfoot is probably kept, but we don't know the results unless one country or the other offers this evidence to the public. However, proof of bigfoot has been mounting for years with several films of bigfoot being produced such as the "Snow Walker" or the distant view of bigfoot chasing a herd of deer like animals along open grassland. The Patterson Gimlin film is the icing on the cake since AI was not a factor then. Backdoc and Hunster seem to agree that there is some evidence that could be rated on the 1 to 10 scale of proof. However, as Norseman stated we have not reached a 10 when it comes to proof and a bigfoot on a slab is required. I did read a report and saw a sketch from Canada of a bigfoot that was shot and killed by a hunter. So far, we have fallen short of rating bigfoot proof as a 10 or absolute proof. However, there is great disagreement when it comes to how far proof has risen on a 1 to 10 scale. I venture to say we are on step 9 but the Forest Service seems to indicate we are on -1 and claims bigfoot is a mythical creature along with Daffy Duck. I bet the Forest Service has a few biologist who disagree but keep their jobs by remaining silent after monitoring this forum site. A few of them probably monitor this site but stay in the shadows.

      Yeah, I was thinking of county sheriffs officers who document their experiences like any other callout. Federal and state officials? Everything is a secret.

      I was thinking more like the FBI and say the Dennis Martin case. But? Absolutely. And the ending is always the same. It’s made fun of or swept under the rug. Deputy so and so is made fun of and they ask him if he has been drinking.    This is the same MO as with Ufology too.    The three levels of obfuscation seem to be.   Level one: The witness is mistaken. It’s swamp gas or a bear or some mundane explanation.   Level two: The witness will be character assassinated. He was drinking, he is a huckster, looney, etc.   Level three: The witness has solid evidence to back his claim. So now he or she is a hoaxer. A deceiver. Liar.   Correct me if I am wrong but never do authorities start with is…… what the witness is seeing REAL? No never.   I understand there are charlatans. But the government works for me. I deserve a fair shake.
