It is my suspicion that the species is slowly going extinct, and they would have long ago if they couldn't breed/hybrid with homo sapiens. All government needs to do is lay low until what they believe is inevitable happens, and they're free from the responsibility of bringing these primitive people back from the brink of extinction and managing their recovery within the overwhelming affairs of 7 billion homo sapiens, the sapiens themselves being too much to deal with as it is.

I hoaxed tracks one time.🤣 I cut out pine boards in middle school wood-shop and strapped some boots to them and walked around my aunts garden. The next day my aunt went down to the garden and saw the tracks went screamin back to the house and told my uncle. Of course he guffawed her but she being a persistent German hen pecked him until he agreed to go back down with her. They both came screaming back to the house. My uncle wanted to call the sheriff but my aunt called my mom instead. Of course my parents knew all about my shop project and even donated the boots! Anyhow my mom busted out laughing and let the cat out of the bag! I steered clear of my uncle for awhile😬. I never used them again and when my aunt moved I gave one of them to her. Lost the other one. Im sure they wouldn't fool any scientist nor did I want to. Just a bored country kid torturing family members!

Yes, they know all about them. Do you not think that they have not encountered them themselves. If we as civilians have encountered these creatures, so have they.

Now that right there is worth quoting. It might even be worthy as a signature. I'm glad it came originally in bold and maximum font size.

Good questions. In this one, I don't believe that people "report" black bear sightings to anybody who officially cares (area biologists), and like Northwind writes, many (if not most) people who see a sasquatch keep mum about it, though that might be changing due to the nature of today's bigfoot media themes vrs what was televised 40 years ago. Also, with reference to the claim that many people see a bear and mistake it for a sasquatch (which is clearly true): the opposite must also be true. People see a sasquatch and believe they've seen a bear. One obvious reason that would be true is because people have been conditioned to believe that sasquatches don't exist, so it must have been a bear. What else could it have been? I'd like to reference you to some reading that might answer this question for you to some extent. First is the Glickman report. In it he specifically discusses sasquach reports, and how media exposure to the phenomenon effects reports, as well as hiw report densities are sure to differ regionally with respect to the population densities of both people and sasquatches: http://www.photekimaging.com/Support/rptcol2.pdf Secondly, here is the page for the Alaska Department of Fish and Game listing their management reports for all big game species in the state, including both black bears and brown bears (but not polar bears, which are federally managed). These reports can reveal a huge wealth of kniwledge and understanding about how official biologists estimate population densities for bears in the different habitats, in addition to so much more. If you're interested in big game, this kind of reading is addictive: http://www.adfg.alaska.gov/index.cfm?adfg=librarypublications.wildlifemanagement
