I don't mean evidence I mean proof . Eye witness reports are a dime a dozen . Have you ever watched the Finding Bigfoot show and every place they visit they have a town meeting with eyewitnesses . It's a joke in my opinion . Videos ? most are hoaxes or blurry and all can be hoaxes really . Avoiding trail cams ..I don't buy it they can avoid them them like they do . You have entire well funded research groups that put out 100's of trail cams in locations for 1 year stretches and can't capture one photo . I know someone will show me the thread where maybe they smell them or hear the noise they make .Well power lines make noise and researches say they use them for travel . As to the smell the forests are filled with human smells that we leave behind from hunters and hikers , cross country skiers , fisherman , mountain bikers ..the list goes on . Nothing can stay this hidden for so long with that many people searching for it . We are not taking about a few wolverines that are a rare sight in the forest . We are talking about a breeding population of 500 to 700 pound animals . If they are reported in that many states then we are talking about 1000's of these large creatures walking around .

Works for bears. As strong as a several hundred pound grizzly is, they don’t break out of these.

The 8ft bed is to me way better than a short bed. I somehow missed this question. It is a 1916 Gibson L1. It is extremely resonant and lightweight. I had to do some minor repairs to it such as stabilizing a few side cracks. Here is a closer picture of it with my 1913 Gibson A Style Mandolin

There are four fields of evidence: 1) Testimony 2) Trace evidence 3) Photographic evidence 4) Fossils The testimony can be broken down further into pre-European and modern (post Columbus). It is the largest collection if evidence, but (as you accurately write and my link to Glickman illustrates) it's the weakest. But it cannot be discounted, especially if/when it can be combined in a particular report with trace and/or photographic evidence. The trace evidence can be strong evidence, again, especially when combined with other evidence. Ditto photographic. Remember, the Patterson/Gimlin event combined all three (testimony, trace evidence, and motion picture photography), and pretty much sealed the deal. The fact that Science refused to accept it as *adjective* evidence only strengthens the theory that they are actively discouraging discovery, which is a theory that gains strength with each additional consideration. The fossil evidence is both too old and only found in Asia thus far, but unlike extraterrestrials, fossils prove that sasquatch type creatures existed in the distant past in Asia. The problem with testimony today is that The Beast (the media) has found use for sasquatchery and has used it to the detriment of the phenomenon itself. Now everybody is seeing a sasquatch behind every tree. Every noise out there is a sasquatch. Every movement in the brush is a sasquatch. More than damaging sasquatchery, however, this is destroying Science just as surely as it's destroying society and culture.

Grabbed a fiberglass topper for my truck for the purpose of camping. 1st Gen Ram with a Cummins and 5 speed. Very little to go wrong out in the woods. I toss a mattress in the back and with the 8’ bed I can fit plenty in it. Great setup.

It depends on what you mean by proof. 1. hair samples (contentious topic, norse and hifler please don't chime in on this) 2. footprints galore 3. many videos and photos 4. eyewitness reports (if these are good enough to convict someone of murder - beyond a reasonable doubt, I have to give them some weight) None of these things prevent or confirm it being in the "other than an animal" realm. While camping with a friend, we both witnessed a phenomenal, long lasting orb event. As I've researched, I have arrived at the same conclusion that MIB alludes to, although I wouldn't call those who don't know this "ignorant". Our understanding of physics is rudimentary. We like to think we know everything about our natural world, but there are many, many things happening outside of our perceptive capabilities. I suspect much of what is attributed to the "woo" is just a part of our physical reality that we just aren't capable of understanding with our current baseline knowledge of physics. Mods, please don't move this thread to the backpages of the forum. This stuff is front and center in our community today, and it should be fleshed out and debated vociferously.

It boogies the mind that you just admitted that YOU attack ME. But in the next breath? You claim I publicly trash you. I speak plainly and the truth. Sorry. You SELL a pro kill book online? But if I talk about being pro kill? You’re gonna attack me and stuff DNA down my throat? 🙄 I am gonna let you in on a little secret Hiflier? You could not hurt me with a 2x4. Once I heal this chest up? I will be back out there with a rifle. There is nothing you can say or do to me that will change that. (Short of discovery, in which I will gladly hang up my spurs) The problem is that every other forum member has to watch their thread turn into a Hiflier DNA symposium. And the damage you are doing is only to yourself and quite frankly to the DNA question itself. For the sake of the forum? I highly suggest that you and I cease fire and steer clear of each other.

Evidently it is. But don't take my word for it. People infinitely more qualified than me have said as much. I don't have a lab, other people do. I don't run samples. other people do. I don't come up with mutated Human DNA other people do. Ya got it backwards, Norseman. To say that it came from us makes no sense. To say we came from it does, both genetically and in the evolutionary sense. WE are the ones with ITS building blocks, We didn't get the hair covered body, or the sagittal crest. We got smaller as a mutated recessive trait, lost the hair as a mutated recessive trait, and genetically fixed a mutation that gave us the advancement from the ape brain to the Human brain. Evolution did that. It raised the Sasquatch from an earlier knuckle walker. And it's why we're here. We are mutated Sasquatches. But since we look at things through an anthropocentric lens? People think Sasquatches have the mutated DNA. But since Humans are science's genetic baseline reference we look at Sasquatch DNA as the weird kid in class.

That's just too funny! "She'd come back smelling real bad....and nekkid! She had a hairy boyfriend up there!" But that made her kids wonder. ......
