This is not directed to any one person. Just a few observations and comments to clarify a few things.
1. Some may assume I'm a professional hunter, or that I hunt Bigfoot. Nope. To see one? Saw one. See his face? Saw it. Up close? I'd have to sit in his lap to get any closer. Interact? Done that, didn't enjoy it. To learn? I learned I didn't like them.
2. I'm not a Bigfoot enthusiast, I'm not a Bigfoot researcher, I'm not a Bigfoot investigator, I'm not a field biologist, nor an anthropologist. I have, however, been the keynote speaker of multiple Special Operations functions. Read into it what you will.
3. Some may assume that one (I) can/would go to this clan on the cheap and just get video or photos. That won't work. If you don't understand why, you don't understand why.
4. I once mentioned that if someone shoots one, they may find themselves in a fight. Take it, leave it, or forget it.
5. Some may assume I'm supposed to share what I know and how I know it. My apologies, but everything I know has been hard-earned, irritating, difficult, very expensive, and I'm going to use that myself. For my own purposes, in my own time, my own way. They've been living on that mountain for centuries, and they'll be there when I get around to it, and it will be approached as just another job.
6. Some may assume that approach is pretty harsh and self-serving. Agreed. I've shared some things, but from the feedback here, sharing seems counterproductive. Most folks today want immediate gratification, bred through a misplaced sense of entitlement. I don't have time for that.
7. Some may assume the behavior of these critters should match their own expectations - or that if Sasquatches are present or active, they should provide you with multiples of evidence to match your expectations, and do so in the places you've determined are ideal to look. That's incorrect, in my opinion.
8. Some may try to define these critters by your own personal terminologies, or personal perceptions, or rationale, and you may or may not be mistaken. My suggestion is to minimize your assumptions. Mine were all wrong.
