I have had zero personal experience with a society of Bigfeet who bury their dead and have high order of human characteristics. Bob Gimlin didn’t either. Neither did Roger Patterson. They did both have one more experience than I have.

If sasquatches exist, the Patterson/Gimlin experience of a surprised sasquatch walking away is not going to be the only kind of sasquatch/man experience to occur. While you are free to limit your own interest in the subject to the PG experience, others might wish to discuss other testimony or evidence, which might be described as the "best evidence" we have, even if it is not proof of anything. Another thought on kidnapping is that there is PROOF (ie, better than "best evidence") that other species will actually raise baby humans to adulthood. The Zana story forced me to invest just a bit of thought into the phenomenon of feral humans, and the fact that such species as wolves, domestic dogs, monkeys, gazelles, bears, sheep, and goats blew my mind. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feral_child The feral human phenomenon is a huge part of this "wild man" field in many ways. That includes misidentification of wild Homo sapiens as another species, and sasquatches (or almastys) possibly kidnapping Homo sapiens for various reasons.

Discuss away. No problem here. I will still await MIB's best evidence since he made the claim and I will consider it when or if presented. I don't think it is right for anyone else to feel the need to try to explain what they think he means or think he was getting at. He can do that if he wishes. If not, no biggie. 27 minutes ago, Huntster said: Another thought on kidnapping is that there is PROOF (ie, better than "best evidence") that other species will actually raise baby humans to adulthood.

When someone is lost in the woods: They died in the elements > They went tribal with Bigfoot. Wild man stories are true in some cases and sensationalism in others. Even then, they don't tell us a lot about bigfoot specially. I am not saying they don't tell us some amazing happenings sometimes challenging our assumptions. We need to be cautious. Anyone one of us can want something to be true so much we lose our objectivity. I have read where Roger Patterson was dumped in a couple of cases where others claimed they had Bigfoot in a cage in a cave or monastery in Tibet. Roger wasted his last money and time on earth trying to find that Bigfoot lead. We all have a viewpoint about Bigfoot. We need to be careful we don't read too much into what we wish to believe.

The best evidence that Bigfeet can be found in groups is the Olympic Project nesting site. In one case they found like 8-9 nests all together on a bench. Assuming 1 Sasquatch per 1 nest? Yah that’s a group.

Why is this so difficult for you? Not everybody who is "lost in the woods" dies. Some return. I've already posted a reference. I'll do so again here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feral_child
