Coyote-The old man creator http://www.firstpeople.us/FP-Html-Legends/Old-Man-Coyote-Makes-The-World-Crow.html How water came to be, nobody knows. Where Old Man Coyote came from, nobody knows. But he was, he lived. Old Man Coyote spoke: "It is bad that I am alone. I should have someone to talk to. It is bad that there is only water and nothing else." Old Man Coyote walked around. Then he saw some who were living - two ducks with red eyes. "Younger brothers," he said, "is there anything in this world but water and still more water? What do you think?" "Why," said the ducks, "we think there might be something deep down below the water. In our hearts we believe this." "Well, younger brothers, go and dive. Find out if there is something. Go!" One of the ducks dove down. He stayed under water for a long, long time. "How sad!" Old Man Coyote said. "Our younger brother must have drowned." "No way has he drowned," said the other duck. "We can live underwater for a long time. Just wait." At last the first duck came to the surface. "What our hearts told us was right," he said. "There is something down there, because my head bumped into it." "Well, my younger brother, whatever it may be, bring it up." The duck dived again. A long time he stayed down there. when he came up, he had something in his beak. "Why, what can this be?" Old Man Coyote took it. "Why, this is a root," he said. "Where there are roots, there must be earth. My younger brother, dive again. If you find something soft, bring it up." The duck went down a third time. This time he came up with a small lump of soft earth in his bill. Old Man Coyote examined it. "Ah, my younger brother, this is what I wanted. This I will make big. This I will spread around. This little handful of mud shall be our home."

"The existence of Bigfoot is taken for granted throughout Native North America, and so are his powerful psychic abilities. I can't count the number of times that I have heard elder Indian people say that Bigfoot knows when humans are searching for him and that he chooses when and to whom to make an appearance, and that his psychic powers account for his ability to elude the white man's efforts to capture him or hunt him down. In Indian culture, the entire natural world -- the animals, the plants, the rivers, the stars -- is seen as a family. And Bigfoot is seen as one of our close relatives, the "great elder brother"." http://www.bfro.net/legends/

... 'til the flashlight batteries die. "In the land of the blind, the one eyed bigfoot is king." MIB

Explorer, the landlord specifically told me they do not like cameras, scopes or anything you put up to your face. Yes they did later directly communicate with me, but I will wait and maybe share that in the paranormal section at another time. I went into that area thinking I was dealing with just a dumb animal to be baited, pursued and manipulated like the opinions that many folks and organizations hold to. I can understand that because that's pretty much how I felt up until that time. After that incredible once in a lifetime experience, I personally witnessed and learned these subjects are very much like us-far beyond the levels of any animal-yet very, very different from us in awareness and abilities. In the end, I have more questions than answers and that list keeps growing with time LOL!!

No matter what prowess a hunter has with other animals, I would feel bad not having warned about the dangers of hunting BF. Their sentient behavior, and ability to move quietly with great stealth, puts them more in the category of matching wits with a human special ops soldier than some bear. They are hunters, know what hunting behavior is and do not like it when they are the prey. It would be the one you don't see that gets you from behind. Night ops would be virtual insanity in my opinion.

I have yet to put batteries in my streamlight...... Leap on and limp off froggie.
