Based on thousands of reports and the oral traditions of the first nations, I tend to think of them as "people". Maybe more dangerous when they get hungry since they can take out a human quietly and quickly. As far as the OPs questions, yes, humans go missing in the forest, sometimes more often in certain forests. I do not believe that every missing person in the forest is related to sasquatch. Maybe 30% Is it possible? Sure. Can I backup my theory? Nope, not even gonna try. come on................write a paragraph?

(For me....nearly a dozen written with ten times that delivered). So yay....you ran a gun shop. Good goobledy goo for you, but don't pretend doing your chicken dance from behind a retail counter and not on the range or in a courtroom and dropping a faux anecdote about poorly maintained weapons coming from LEOs is anything less than mouth waddling because of personal hubris.YOU HAVE TAUGHT LITTLE TO THOSE WHO NEED TO KNOW.
