I can tell you it doesnt make sense in our current understanding of great Apes including modern humans and Neanderthals. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/why-are-chimpanzees-stronger-than-humans-1379994/ https://www.newscientist.com/article/dn16091-were-neanderthals-stoned-to-death-by-modern-humans/

The fact that we cannot find it, or prove it, is exactly why it exists, because it can. Maybe you see that as circular reasoning, well call the kettle black then. Some reason it cannot exist because we should have found one or filmed one. Well some would certainly argue the Minnesota man was the real deal, though lost to further study. That was the conclusion of some decent scientific minds who initially examined the body. Jacko, though considered to be a fabricated story by many is another example, not to mention those more recent studies of semi human like creatures whose relatives still exist. I only can see that evidence is not as scant as some suggest, quite to the contrary, it is pretty extensive in pointing towards its actual existence. Just piecing together the decent unarguable examples would point to its reality. Tracks Historical Knowledge Eyewitnesses Film Scat Hair Maybe now some decent evidence of nesting behavior

Not much thought, though I appreciate the fact you were not too bored. Allot of what happens hear is not relevant to the real matter. I pretty much gave up trying to prove to anyone anything. I just am stating very documented facts, if you actually can believe Patty was a hoax, then I surely would like to talk to you concerning a nice piece of wetland I have for sale. I do not say that to insult anyone, but if you actually examine the film, the track way, and that facts surrounding the Patterson Gimlin film, honestly that is, I think you will come to the same conclusion. The standard hoax theory is not only not plausible, when taking the whole into account, it is ludicrous. The film can be tossed into the garbage but the track way alone proves what walked that sand bar that day, and no human could have faked, or produced those tracks, much less in some hitherto unknown suit fabrication that would rival anything but CG today. And sorry I am a bit passionate about my opinion on that matter, and I do realize ilk is spelled ilk, not elk. Maybe that is subliminal to the supposed elk butt that stole some apples from a muddy barrow somewhere else down the road. Really, it takes some real bias to not one sit up and take notice to the reality of the foot print evidence, which alone proves this creature exists, no film or body is needed. Again my statement here is simple, it does exist because something would naturally fill the role of hunter and gatherer that we have vacated, something of similar intelligence.

nope.... not in Iowa any more I have been able to get through some seriously bad roads with the Suburban in AWD, and not locked into 4WD. It's nice to have the options though.

Patterson-Gimlin, Thanks, you're not so bad yourself there friendly giant haha ! I appreciate our conversations as well, hope is always good, be it for a scientist, skeptic or proponent. I look at this subject skeptically an scientifically, I think one has to. In doin' so over the years, there are aspects that have lead me to form opinions on the PGF an the subject in general. Things like the PGF tracks, are extremely compellin', either the subject filmed made them or they were hoaxed by Patterson an Gimlin. Scientists argued the MTB found in the tracks shouldn't exist in a bipedal primate, it was a characteristic found in quadrupedal primates, until only recently that is. That characteristic found in the PGF is scientifically, roughly 40 some years ahead of its time. Although not impossible, I find it highly unlikely all reports/sightin's an track finds over the decades are mistaken...or lies. Witness description predate "Bigfoot" or "Sasquatch", they simply describe somethin' similar. Pat...
