I can't argue with that since it's true, but on the same token it didn't help either. The most it did was let BF reach a wider audience. Take that for what you may.

Humans' varied vocal abilities include whistles of many sorts of volumes and sound effects according to needs. I think the hairy people use sounds that we do and more due to their increased sizes/lung volume, anatomical and behavioral differences. There is enough evidence, including native history, to state without doubt that whistles are commonly used in their communications. Not to mention their mimicking skills, which is a whole other topic. I've heard them described as whistle-chirps before elsewhere.

^^^ TV shows are obviously based on ratings. I guess if a show is done for X $$$ amount of money and it returns X plus $$$ then it is considered a sucess. Look at when History Channel or Discovery devoted a show to an update on 'evidence' Amelia Erhart and her co pilot were 'captured by the Japanese' They offered up a well-produced show with a photo discovered said to show the aviator and Fred sitting on a dock with their backs toward us. The only problem is this was not them and it was proved the photo could be found in a book published before the flight ever occurred. The show was made aware of this in the news but went ahead and played the show anyway. I guess the thinking may have been to at least present the spirt of the crash-capture theory even if the photo itself was no longer proof of it. After all, they already invested the money. If the goal had been to present the facts running the show was not the facts. Further, I don't recall a disclaimer about the photo but they may have been this or some other statement. Could have been, but I don't recall. I just remember the news had already reported this photo could not be Amelia. Moral of the story: TV produced shows are about ratings / audience. I have to think Finding Bigfoot doesn't really care if Bigfoot is real or not. They don't care if a snap of a twig was really a squatch or not. Shows like Monster Quest at least are shows presenting both sides and some evidence or demonstrations. Finding Bigfoot ends up being a mini town hall of 40 people who nearly all raise their hand when asked, "How many of you have seen Bigfoot"? Then, it's off to the woods with night vision gear. Pretend the court of Public Opinion is some court of law. Who do you really want to make the case for Bigfoot's existence? SHOW A: Interviews with eyewitness accounts, PGF, Track evidence and analysis, wildlife experts, costume experts and so on. SHOW B: A few people show up to some town there a sighting or report might have taken place. They talk on and on about a creature they know exists to the point they seem to know its' favorite color, food, and baseball team. Then they go out with night vision gear in some area and find nothing. In the Jury of Public opinion, what is more convincing or worthy of consideration for future study to such a jury. It's not Show B and the very existence of people taking show B seriously undermines the great efforts of Show A?

Yea, i was flabbergasted when I saw it and realized what it looked like. I was always on the fence with that one Todd posted. Whether it was a prop one he filmed, it was based off an actual sighting of his for sure.

I had a possible sighting several years ago cant recall the exact year. But the one that I know deep inside was an actual sasquatch was the howl. I was sitting at home, around 12:30 am. Watching tv as Im a night owl. This was maybe 10 or so years ago. I reported both experiences to a bigfoot reporting place, cant recall exactly who but I will try to find out as they must have kept records of reported events. Anyway I was sitting in my livingroom, it was most likely summertime. I heard this exceptionally loud howl which was very close to my house and gave me goosebumps all over. Living in a rural area im very used to what owls sound like, coyotes and vixens. I went online and found audio clips of every animal sound for animals in my area. Nothing matched. Then I found a website that had audioclips of sasquatch recordings. A few were a bit similar but there was one recording that was the EXACT match... some "moan howl". Maybe from a sierra recording? But still, its my experience and no witnesses so what could I do? I reported it and am interested in the subject... thank you
