Night Walker - I suspect that the taboo about discussing ways to clearly and unequivocally identify fakes merely allows fakers insight to make new and improved fakes that can avoid that scrutiny. If you looked through the forums enough, you would find "investigators" who offer a film or footprint that is really a hoax. Then, after awhile they come back with a new improved film or footprint that incorporated "fixes" for the clear flaws in their first or second product. It's not a desire to ignore hoaxing, but a desire to avoid facilitating future improved hoaxing.

Seems like you are very interested in a male foot mold made of latex. More interested, by your line of questioning, than saving a footprint find in plaster which saves a footprint find perfectly for study. Plaster casts are well accepted by science in all manner of footprint and fossil preservation. I can only think of a couple of uses of a male latex mold. Another word for a male latex foot mold is a latex prosthetic foot. Since I doubt that you want to help a footless bigfoot, it seems you want to create a latex prosthetic foot for some other purpose. A prosthetic foot is most commonly used for hoaxing. Either way, you are on your own at this point because I am suspicious of your intentions. And as an aside, if you show up in a month or two on the forum with footprint or track way pictures, I doubt anyone would believe them at this point. The forum rules are very harsh on hoaxers and that is a quick trip to being permanently banned.

Cool ! Looks like a new perspective, well, sorta, at least! Thanks for the heads up on it! With the only new material out there the series Terror in the Woods(an engaging show to be sure, but the title is rather telling as of the shows intent) it will be refreshing to see something a little different!

Thanks Pat. Just went to the APTN.CA site and tried watching "Indians and Aliens" as an experiment. It said that the video was not available in my geographic area (near Helena, Montana). Likely the only way I could see "Sasquatch'n" would be to sign up for a VPN with servers in Canada, or do a weekend road trip up I-15/CA-4 to Lethbridge, unlikely this time of the year! If it generates enough interest, maybe the producers will make it available on DVD, Amazon Prime or Netflix.
