Why is the federal government mum on Bigfoot.

I have experienced the woo traits of bigfoot. Can you explain what you know?

I don't "know" anything.  I am open minded and have formed my opinion based on the account of thousands of others personal accounts.

Welcome to the Bigfoot Forum.

My prediction is a small group of upper management charged with managing federal lands knows about bigfoot. The Forest Service and the BLM biologist in Washington DC know about BF is my opinion. If so, they probably have pictures of dead ones and maybe bodies as proof. Did they take Smeja's bigfoot? Other lower level managers are kept out of the loop, ridiculed, and threatened with firing if they start talking about BF (probably true)  In my opinion bigfoot prospers in logged land where they hunt an abundance of deer feeding on vegetation growing in the sunlight. 

 

Here in Oregon, the rare Spotted Owl has caused logging on federal land to be cut way back to retain their habitat. It's logical, bigfoot would require special protection too. Without logging, the Forest Service will shrink even more. However, my opinion as a past landscape architect for the 

Rogue River National Forest and a knower of bigfoots, bigfoot thrives on the extra deer that graze on brushy land being reforested after clear cutting. Bigfoot thrives in logged areas that are growing back providing the sustained yield logging method is used based on the fir trees that take 50 to a 100 years to reach maximum growth. For example clear cut a 100 acres of a 10,000 acre forest plantation every 100 years that grow under average conditions.  In the case of fast growing trees in prime conditions cut 100 acres every 50 years. (check my math) 

 

"As the law states now, the federal government restricts logging within a 2,000 acre radius around known spotted owl nests and roosts, and also requires that at least 500 acres of the largest trees in that zone be left uncut."  http://www.wildlifewatchers.org/esReports/report17.html This will not happen in the case of bigfoot.

I believe this is true, to wit:

 

If sasquatches exist, the federal government knows it to some extent.

This may be true, however, I believe that the overall pressures of us Homo sapiens far outweighs the possibility le benefits of increased deer populations. For example, over the past 150 years, the salmon populations in many watersheds of the Pacific Northwest have virtually gone extinct if not crashed over the long term. This represents a huge loss of sustenance for such a creature. On the other hand, humans have eliminated brown bears from much of western sasquatch habitat, which likely has also benefitted them. There are lots of factors that go way, way, way beyond deer and old growth forest.

Why not?
