My theory is bigfoots avoid humans like the plague. They know we are dangerous and deadly with our weapons, so they stay hidden and try to keep miles away from us. The Alaska villagers know about where they are so this is a good area to camp in and eventually bigfoot will show, if you really want to see one. They are smart and know that being seen can bring in more humans looking around the area for them. They live in very dense forest and steep rocky areas where humans don't go. Each year we have a low number of humans that venture into the woods hunting or doing something else, and a very low percentage ever see a bigfoot. They know if someone sees them, others may venture into this area searching for them. They move out and go to a remote area and build other nest and develop new hunting grounds. They hunt at night so humans are not an issue with them. If we can teach our family and friends this, they may understand why bigfoot is really not seen that often and it doesn't mean they are nonexistant. This is my theory and may someday be proven to be a fact by those of BFF.

My apologies to as well, bipedalist. Your own personal encounter backs up my fervor for exposing the truth as well as those who would hide it. Something tells me I have rough and risky road ahead which I have to say worries me a bit. There are scientific techniques out there that can be used in the quest. Those techniques are not at my fingertips but they are at someone's. My aim is to try and connect to those people. My apologies to the BFF as well for being so combative over the last couple of years. It just seems the closer I get to the truth the more evident it becomes. Often times I wish I could just let the whole thing go. I saw it written recently that science is designed to protect itself from scientists. Namely those who would twist it to their own personal agendas. If that's the case then it becomes glaring when science won't lift a finger WRT Sasquatch. The difference is I don't think it's from an agenda beyond preserving their careers. The driving force is fear. Scientists may know better than anyone else why the subject of Bigfoot can't be researched. I try not to think about it.

First, @hiflier please accept my apologies for my off-topic post directed at you last evening. Also, sorry to hear of your aging pets condition, I have been there before and it has been painful but part of signing on to a dedicated relationship with them. I still miss the last dog I owned and it has been years. Second (on topic post) @Wolfjewel, Good suggestion on library which reminds me that I have picked up two ex-library Apes Among Us originals by John Green because of the tepid response of the subject through the years. (It is possible they were replaced with new ones) but these were not in terrible shape even though one has a page or two missing which gives you some idea of people identifying with parts of at least some of the sightings or info. I would imagine authors donating copies to their local reading rooms would be a sweet idea as a reception to the subject. So hey authors what have you done in this respect to lighten the tension about the subject ? My own response has been mostly indifference from friends and I have a neighbor who is supportive but not swayed. Some have said there is no way they would allow one of their children to go out looking for something such as Sasquatch (particularly after listening to some of my experiences). Some people are afraid of them and not just disbelieving. They historically probably have more than enough reason to be fearful of them. Incidentally it seems the 101 book may be written by the guy Monongahela who went anonymous by that name and did considerable sound research with the Sonic Visualiser platform and still does I believe he has done alot of BFRO work and work on long-term recording set-ups. He was on Facebook the last I was active on that platform.

Eh, just wait until the next Carrington Event. Or, the future upcoming Cascadia Earthquake. Those will slow things down, though the first will most likely be an ELE. I kinda hope things just carry on the way they are, but with more protection of National and State Parks and other designated lands. Don't see that happening right now, but one can hope. I don't think they're all that rare, however. Maybe it's just where i live, though.

Since we can no longer tell who upvotes who...you should know I upvotes you.

Thank you all, my heart goes out to all those who have lost those so unbelievably dedicated creatures. He brings my slippers........for a goodie of course. Sorry for my disposition. But here's the way it shakes out for me. Once I say this I'll let things go. Sasquatch is a real creature. Of that I have no doubt. There is a cover up of that fact. I am in no doubt of that either. And greed runs the whole show. Again, no doubt. It pisses me off. Breaking through that somehow is my goal, and seriously has been for the last two years. All I do is figure out ways and ideas for accomplishing the task. Period. Those things are behind every serious post I submit. I am 100% "Solve For Bigfoot". And I'm convinced that it has to happen and soon. Okay, I'm done. Said what I needed to say.

bipedalist, I've actually done a bit more than the activities that you listed. I have attempted contact with Dr. Goodall, yes. I think you know me well enough. I have stated in the past about those attempts as well. Specifically I addressed the shoulder width of Patty so it was a while back. Never got a response. So you're right, nothing lately. Pretty much everything I've done I have brought here but there are also things I have done that I haven't. A couple of years ago I got a lot of flak here about emails so I backed off. Shouldn't have, but I did. F&G have biologists that do e-DNA field testing. So yes, they are a focus of mine and I'm trying to figure a way to get more inside on that. And why not. As far as RVing goes, I go. BF research is a secondary thing because my spouse is pretty sensitive to the subject. It's not like I can tell Mrs. hiflier that I'm going to do research and then just take off with the RV. It doesn't, and can't work that way. If we were both of the same mind then sure, we'd be in it with both feet. But that's not the case. Would she let me fly out to the PacNW on my own and 'do my thing'? Of course she would. But if I have a truck and a camper then why would I fly then rent a car? 12 years ago I had a triple bypass. I would worry her to be on the road by myself and drive 7,000 miles round trip at 70 years old. So I chose to work in other directions and not worry her. But work in other directions I do. Sometimes I get impatient here because I feel limited. Sorry about that. Walk in my shoes. Know what I know, and some of you may act the same way. Best question of the evening! The usual. Caffeine. Might have overindulged, though. Probably shouldn't drive

Just curious, as a retiree hiflier, what have you actually done, besides publish a book, RV across the nation in the guise of BF research, engage in an email campaign to politicize BF and engage in forum banter ad infinitum to wrangle people into your camp? It is not cool to propagate the conditions under which a member is accepted and chooses to participates here! Moods do not count! Pro=kill is just what is sounds like.--the end of the line for a cognizant being. It is more than a gorilla, have you asked Jane Goodall to support your efforts, why just F&G?

I've always said I want things to stay exactly as they are. I do NOT want a formal recognition of sasquatch. It will spell doom for them. Humans can't protect elephants, rhinoceros, male lions, bengal tigers, silverbacks, and more. The list goes on and on. I hope the body never arrives for science to finally recognize.

Most people have NO idea what being in the woods is all about. Both city folk and suburban dwellers think going to their town park is roughing in the great outdoors. I don't wish to cast aspersions as that is probably all they know and have experienced. They wonder how could a bigfoot live in the town park and never be spotted. Once they get out into the deep wilderness, it opens their eyes that something really could live in this unfettered expanse of forest.
