JDL Posted December 21, 2011 Posted December 21, 2011 (edited) Jodie, to be sure, you could obtain one of these trifield meters. Trifield meter. I used one once to map out the magnetic fields in a federal facility. It's sensitive enough to pick up any magnetic field you might be emitting. They're kind of fun. You can use them to measure the fields throughout your home. I also get a chuckle when I see one being used on any of the ghost-chaser shows. Edited December 21, 2011 by JDL
Guest BFSleuth Posted December 21, 2011 Posted December 21, 2011 (edited) If Sassy has developed the ability to reason, think and interpret situations as well as recognize and understand what a camera does or a gun does, then why hasn't Sassy developed other higher level behaviors like building shelter, making and using tools or weapons to fell its prey? Why not bury their dead or develop a complex social structure with language? These are all characteristics that Sassy should have if he has the abilities already mentioned in this thread. If necessity is the mother of invention, then what need does BF have for developing weapons, tools, clothes, etc? As for shelter, we have a lot of folks noting structures, nests, etc. However, their requirements or NEED for shelter would be much more limited that human requirements. Why waste time making something they don't need? Regarding language, you should google "samurai chatter" or "sierra sounds" and look into the research on their language. There are many reports of hearing them talking to one another. Edited December 21, 2011 by BFSleuth

Ok, that is really cool, I'll have to get that before my trip this spring.
Guest spunout Posted December 21, 2011 Posted December 21, 2011 EMF probably means Electromagnetic Field. Ususally refered to as Elctromagnetic Radiation. The 'radiation' are photons, the carriers of the EM Force. Photons have different freqencies (or wavelenghts: wavelength ~ C / Frequency, where c = speed of light). Frequency ranges have different names: gamma ray, x-ray, visable light , infra-red, radio, etc (from hi frq to low). Different frequencies have energy levels expressed by Planck's formua: Energy = h x freq. Higher freq carry more energy, whcih is why it's not good to be exposed to a gamma ray. The light portion of the spectrum runs about 400 - 750 nanometers (wavelength, where nano = 10 exp -9, or one-billionth (of a meter). These are freq of about 400 - 800 TeraHertz , where tera = 10 exp 12, or trillion. A Wavelength of 10 microns is a freq ~ 1 TerHertz, or the long wavelength side of the visible spectrum (also IR, or Infra red). So it may be that BF can sence IR (heat), and perhaps other parts of the spectrum in which the camera semiconductors are emitting IR. Interesting theory.
Guest UPs Posted December 21, 2011 Posted December 21, 2011 I think Jodie got it right earlier in the thread in that the biggest problem is where/how the cams are set up. I have been using game cams for about 8 years now and have learned quite a bit about setting them up. Every type of animal that I have taken pics/video of is aware of the camera (not on every pic/video though) except humans. I have only caught humans 2 times and in both, they were unaware of the camera. Recently, I got a night video of what I think is a Lynx (blob-lynx). My favorite setup is to find a well used trail and set the camera pointing down the trail in one direction and hide it by using natural brush from ONE direction only. When the animal uses the trail and coming from behind the camera, it is not aware of it until it gets past the camera and then will stop and look behind itself to see the camera. Almost all of the videos are from one direction only and the few that are coming towards the camera try to hide (except deer). I use Bushnell Trophy cams and set it up in video mode. I am 100 percent certain that the animals are aware of the camera, but I do not know why. Unless a human sees the camera, they are not aware of it. I have no pics/vids of bf, but have many night videos that show nothing visible. I do not think any inhabit my area and am actually glad of this. For those that think there are plenty of cameras in the vast forests, I disagree. To properly cover just my 40 acres, I would need 22 cameras set up 20 yards apart in a line. If sasquatch do not use trails for a majority of movement, getting one on a trail-cam is very unlikely. Using bait or anything to lure an animal in will just cause the animal to be on alert and very weary. UPs
Sasfooty Posted December 21, 2011 Posted December 21, 2011 I am 100 percent certain that the animals are aware of the camera, but I do not know why. Unless a human sees the camera, they are not aware of it. Could it be that we are the ones that aren't "normal"? Maybe it's normal to have these senses that we no longer have. Could we be devolving & that is the reason we've had to develop technological "crutches"? I have no pics/vids of bf, but have many night videos that show nothing visible. Do any of your night pics have little sparks of light similar to the spark in this one? This pic from a game Cam was taken from the woods just behind my house. They always came by at almost the exact same time every night. I had put the camera up, aimed at the spot where they crossed a fence. I was at a window, in a dark room, listening to them as they walked toward the camera. As they got close, the camera flashed, everything instantly got quiet, & they didn't come back for three nights, even though I removed the camera the next morning. When the picture was checked, I thought there was nothing there, but I saved it anyway. It wasn't until a couple of years later that I started associating these little sparks of light with their presence. Can this be an "energy" that they emit, that the camera can see, but we can't?
Guest Nalajr Posted December 21, 2011 Posted December 21, 2011 I have seen pics of deer that clearly indicate they they know SOMETHING is there. They come over to it, smell it, look at it and leave. They don't look overly alarmed or frightened by it, just curious. Anyone that has had a deer walk up on them in the wild will recognize that the reaction they get from the deer is MUCH different than what is displayed on these game cams. The thing is that they don't seem to be too concerned about these things until they are pretty close to it. They certainly don't act alarmed when they are 30 feet away from them. I don't think it's scent that alarms them because some of the best noses in the animal kingdom are regularly fooled by them. I've seen bear and pigs routinely caught on cams. An account told by officials is that they once followed a Polar Bear by helicopter for over 90 miles watching him walk while moving his head side to side and at the end they seen him approach a female that was in season. That's some kinda sniffer for sure. A nose like that would almost certainly be aware that something in their environment is amiss when a person places a game cam there, but they still get caught on them. That could be because they might consider man an easy meal too and not be afraid of the scent. If I were to bet on something, other than Sassy NOT being out there, I would place my money on HEARING.

Guest Jodie Posted December 22, 2011 Posted December 22, 2011 Interestingly enough Sasfooty, there is a book written by Dr. Aaaron G. Filler called "The Upright Ape: A new Origin of the Species" that speaks of devolution as a potential scenario. If interested in reading it, you can PM me your address and I'll loan it to you, just mail it back when you get through, no rush in reading it. As for your lights, I'm just getting into reading about what photography can and can't pick up. LAL had a day time game cam photo that was interesting that you might want to look at, PM and ask her what thread she posted it in, or she may just e-mail it you.
Guest UPs Posted December 22, 2011 Posted December 22, 2011 Sasfooty you could be right about humans losing abilities to sense things out of place in the outdoors, but maybe if it depended on survival, we would regain them. I have had many night vids that nothing was apparently in them, but I do not remember seeing any pinpricks of light in them. Next time that I change out cards, I will look closer at them. Ups
Guest thekingdomkeys Posted December 22, 2011 Posted December 22, 2011 I believe that there is a group out there that I will refer to as the "bad guys" that is preventing Bigfoot researchers from regularly obtaining data/evidence (including the blocking of BF images on trail cameras) to help prove the existence of the creatures. Merry Christmas everyone. Sincerely David Kenderes

Y'all It wasn't LAL , it was Painthorse that had the unusaul daylight game cam pic that made me first start thinking about the settings on a game cam. The pic was posted in a thread on the BFF many many months ago, neither of us can remember which one. Maybe Painthorse could post that pic here......
Sasfooty Posted December 22, 2011 Posted December 22, 2011 Thanks for the offer Jodie, but I think I already read that book. Doesn't he have the theory that apes evolved from us instead of Darwin's theory? Pretty interesting, if I remember correctly. I think I know the picture you're talking about. She posted one that had a couple of see-through "humanoid" beings in it. There are many of those strange pics out there. I saw one a while back from a game cam that was a BF with some of the little lights around him. There is definitely some "electrical" connection that warrants investigation.

The pic was posted in a thread on the BFF many many months ago, neither of us can remember which one. Maybe Painthorse could post that pic here...... Here ya go Taken with an early model of a Wildview Game cam ($50 bucks at Wallyworld) a couple years ago. Took one pic at a time and no function for time and date stamp, or other settings. Odd thing about that area is that just until recently, power lines were set, prior to that nada in that direct area. Original power pole was roughly 200' away. BUT, when using the parabolic you would get a loud "hum" within maybe a 8-10' radious. Walk out of that radious and no hum, also no phone lines or underground cables.
Sasfooty Posted December 22, 2011 Posted December 22, 2011 That's a fascinating picture! It looks like the being in front is wearing a robe with a large clasp holding it together. If the picture had been taken at night, I think all those blue-green dots would be bright sparks of light.

Sas, I set that cam back in that same spot for quite awhile trying to get a re-peat of something similar. Being that there was no time stamp I couldn't figure out what time of day it was taken. BUT, I thought if it was just a "play on light and shadows" I would have caught at least a somewhat duplicate pic, but nada, so.................!!!
