Here are some reasons not to leap to the conclusion that a structure encountered in the woods = "Bigfoot." 1) The Great Hill Recreation Area, where this was filmed, is a postage-stamp sized park of 203 acres surrounded by suburbia and typical urban sprawl development. See https://www.trails.actonma.gov/great-hill/ size of the park and your map program of choice for a wider view of the area. 2) No one knows how how much range 1 Bigfoot needs to support itself, but an average New York black bear weighing from 160 to 300 lbs. needs 35 lbs of food per day to sustain itself. The average home range for black bears are 1-15 square miles (female) and 8-60 square miles (male) or 640 to 9600 acres for a female black bear. Thus, this park doesn't have the necessary area to support a (presumably) smaller animal. (I gathered this information some time ago from www.wikipedia.com and the links provided therein, and species-specific preservation/hunting websites; the entire chart of 13 large animals and human hunter/gatherers is uploaded somewhere on the forums.) 3) The branch structure looks to be only 20-30 yards of a trail (a blue trail marker is visible from 12:01 to 12:07, right before the camera pans to the left and first shows the branch structure, and again at 13:22. This is consistent with the Great Hill trail map, available at the website above. Even within the park, this is not a remote area. 4) Dead trees that fall between the forks of trees, like the ones that form the main supports on the right (looking at the mouth of the structure) are not that uncommon in nature. Kids (define loosely at 10-16 years old) making secret hideouts from their parents is also not unheard of. Its a great place to hangout and drink beers snuck out of the home frig or to neck (or so I've been told). This also could be a community hangout (again, look at the dense suburbs in the area) where people added to the "shelter" over time. 5) Setting aside the Hockamock swamp area to the southeast, this area of Massachusetts is a void as far as reported encounters go. There are 63 reported encounters in the state between 1861 and 2016 if you add up the reports from 9 different organizations/books/researchers.* Middlesex County, where this park is located, has zero reported encounters. The closest encounter to this park was in the 1960s, over 15 miles away. * Numbers subject to change as more research is done. Not claiming that this structure is natural. However, nothing supports bypassing more likely explanations (human action) to leap to the more unlikely explanation. That being said, nothing here should dissuade anyone from spending time in the woods and enjoying the fresh air and off chance that you'll encounter Bigfoot.

You’re completely confused. We are trying to get to PROOF…. You have the cart in front of the horse. How are we supposed to get to the truth with documents like the one below? Bigfoot, UFOs, the JFK assassination, etc. How long have we been trying to get to the bottom of it? And your honestly with a straight face tell me that the government has been transparent with American citizens??? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

You’re the one who is fringe. No one thinks that the government lying to the American people is fringe anymore. Your clinging to a belief that the government with a TRILLION dollar per year defense budget cannot detect a Bigfoot walking from BC into Washington based on INCOMPETENCE.🤣🤣🤣

then I have to side with Norse here. you seem really green and have some catching up to do. enjoy, the journey is long and interesting.

He gave you proof in the form of government officials testifying about their experiences and they have evidence. you just seem to think that there is going to be some kind of UAP style motion around this and you are pretending that it is the only valid way to prove it to you. I think your argument is in bad faith. You just signed up here and you are already becoming antagonistic. Seems like you are trolling. Too many new accounts being contentious recently. go find your proof then. nobody owes you anything. enjoy your search.

yes, I've run into so many humans who go out and build structures. its just so common it blows my mind. nobody would ever build these and photograph them just for an article. that would never happen, would it? crazy. you have 5 posts, all are cunty. buzz off.

Then provide actual, indisputable proof that I am wrong. I’m green because I don’t believe a fringe theory with no proof?

It is incompetence because they felt it was going to be beneficial to do so. Come on, guy, I feel like at this point you’re just arguing to argue. You’d rather be “right” than have meaningful discussion.
