  1. The camera shoots a pic of a pair of bear cubs, then 28 minutes later comes the mystery pics. Even if the pic looked like a genuine sasquatch staring at the camera waving, it would prove nothing, just like the legion of supposed squatch pics taken by game cams everywhere........the Eastman pic comes to mind. But this pic requires exercise to make it into a squatch. Yeah, it requires exercise to make into a sow bear, too, but that is the default setting, especially with cubs confirmed to be on location minutes before. Again, for those who just know that this is a squatch, great. Take it to the bank and see if you can deposit it and get some interest. If you just know that it's a chimp, great. Go shopping for an interest bearing account you can deposit it into. Me? The pic is as useless as a pic with nothing in it. It doesn't move the ball. It doesn't even make me imagine anything.

  2. Horses' vs Zebras. Most of us have heard this story. If you are in Montana and hear horse outside it's probably a horse. I could be a zebra but it's probably a horse. If you were in certain parts of Africa and heard the hoofs outside it's probably a zebra. I could be a horse but it's more likely a zebra. The Q of this video is this: What are really the odds of something on this video very likely a 'horse' being a 'zebra'? I say the expectation is the video -whatever it might be- has a high likelihood of being something natural other than Bigfoot. It's just unlikely -even if Bigfoot was real- of being a bigfoot. This is especially true with it being a contorting bigfoot. Here is why the confusing video likely isn't bigfoot even if Bigfoot was a real creature: If Bigfoot exists it's an extremely rare, near extinct 'animal' to begin with. (did I mention near extinct) Thus, the odds of capturing one on ANY trail camera is remote. Not zero but just real remote. It's not like the camera was parked there in an area of recent assumed Bigfoot activity and an area of long-term traditional bigfoot history. Curious to see if at this sight there any footprints, hair or other signs were. If making tracks was possible, I am sure there would be bear tracks and other common things that are known in nature. I think of a Bigfoot TV show where a trail camera caught a bigfoot during the day on the edge of a clearing. Closer examination showed it was a flying bird whose perspective and shape looked like an ape like figure at the distant woods. Instead, it was a bird in flight close to the camera making it look that way. <--- This type of answer is likely what is going on in this Jacobs photo thing. That is, some normal Non Bigfoot reason.

  3. I haven't seen any either. My source was a Meldrum interview. I don't always agree with him. I certainly do this time. I have seen enough to conclude it's a mangy bear.

  4. Hello, I'm JGood from Hampton Roads, VA. My knowledge of this creature goes back to my childhood. My family is from the gulf coast northwest fla, to Slidell, Louisiana. Growing up my grandfather and other elders in my family told us of the skunkape and boogers. My mothers family is Choctaw and always harvested their own food whether it be hunted or planted. Her family was self sufficient when it came to food. This created ample opportunity for being in the swamps, pine forests, and dark places in Southern swamps.

  5. I finally got my Hummer back on the road on Thursday. The $2000 engine I had hoped to get was sold by the time I got the money together, so I had to search again, and the only decent one I found was 1500 km away in Alberta, and priced at $3000 CDN, plus $400 to get it shipped to my mechanic. He had to source a few extra parts as the one I bought didn't come with the fan clutch, which I needed anyway, as that was the item that failed and toasted the original engine, and the battery had died while the truck was parked for 2 months, and wouldn't recharge, so his bill came to $2400. All in, the replacement came to $5800 CDN (about $4250 US) The new(used) engine had lower mileage than mine, and tested full compression on all cylinders, so I expected it to run well, and it certainly does, as I took a 300km road trip this Saturday to meet an old friend who called me Friday night to say he was camped at one of my favourite hunting spots over on the rain shadow side of the Coast Range. We spent the day cruising the extensive maze of logging and fire roads on Placer Mt., covering about 120 km, with several stops for hikes off road of 1 or 2 km each. I was very pleased that I have recovered enough from my hospital episode to be able to do those hikes at 6000ft elevation. Some of the area was dramatically beautiful, with the aspens and poplars in full golden foliage, while several very large tracts were depressing moonscapes after this summers unprecedented wildfires. The hunting was unsuccessful, with only black squirrels , snowshoe hares, hawks and ravens sighted. We never saw a bear, deer, moose, grouse, or hairy biped during the entire trip.
