Incorrigible1 Posted May 16, 2012 Posted May 16, 2012 Yeah, but who likes ketchup on their peanut butter or salmon? Wait, that's not ketchup. Ahhhh!
Guest Posted May 16, 2012 Posted May 16, 2012 Don't knock BWE until you've tried it. Shamans know it works. Think of how many bigfoots have peered upon tribal campfires fron the shadows and gotten lulled into a trance by the flickering flames and rhythmic drumming.
Guest Posted May 16, 2012 Posted May 16, 2012 How would one guarantee immobilization of this kind of creature from a distance of 400 yards? If tranquilizer guns were an option (which they are not since I don't have a license), they still only shoot at most 100 yards. This best plan seems to immobilize it by sniping the knees. Approach and use taser gun while another straps (hog-ties) the creature down. A tourniquet kit would then be needs to treat the wounds. A breathable bag over the head. What else?
Guest Posted May 17, 2012 Posted May 17, 2012 Let's say we know where and when a Bigfoot will be within a 400 yard radius. How do you catch the big guy? Tranquilizers-- if you are or have a vet with you from 100 yards. Even then, the best tranqs take minutes to work, plenty of time for our fellow to get away. FM Transmitter trackable darts could be used, but with opposable thumbs, he could easily pull that sucker out no problem. Snares and tainted bait- which is very sketchy- is also an idea. Is this the best plan we can come up with? If so, this all seems like a pretty good argument to wound the animal from a distance to immobilize it. A taser gun could be used up close to restrain it as another ties it up. Thoughts?
Incorrigible1 Posted May 17, 2012 Posted May 17, 2012 400 yards is a fairly long shot for a chunk of lead traveling 2500 feet per second. Sorry, but this plan ain't gonna fly, Wilbur. You're better off considering a deadfall trap, remotely triggered net, or some other means of containment.
Guest poignant Posted May 17, 2012 Posted May 17, 2012 Walk around side-by-side with a tall friend dressed up as bigfoot. The other bigfoots might come out to take a look. Have your video camera(s) in HD on standby. CAPTURE on irrefutable HD video.
Guest Posted May 17, 2012 Posted May 17, 2012 Thank you, Incorrigible1, for your feedback! If under 100 yards, is a tranquilizer the only option? What about tainted bait?
Guest OntarioSquatch Posted May 17, 2012 Posted May 17, 2012 If you can somehow get close enough to the animal, you can fire a net gun. Other than that, I think a live capture would be extremely difficult to say the least. This is a creature that is clever enough to live in our backyards, yet remain unknown to science.
Guest LAL Posted May 17, 2012 Posted May 17, 2012 I think the first problem would be getting close enough.
Guest Posted May 17, 2012 Posted May 17, 2012 How does one capture a Bigfoot-- really?! Here are the ideas so far: 1. Tranquilizer Gun (if you are a vet) from under 100 yards 2. Deadfall, Net, or Snare Trap 3. Tainted Bait 4. Wounding the animal inorder to immobilize There is a law-enforcement only taser/electrical shotgun shell for a 12 gauge that works out to 100 yards or so. It is very effective but only if a Taser gun would work. Not that expensive either, but available only to law enforcement
Guest toejam Posted May 17, 2012 Posted May 17, 2012 If you even get the chance at an attempt (which is extremely unlikely) better bring a change of underwear.
Guest Posted May 17, 2012 Posted May 17, 2012 Within 30 yards, this could be used: http://www.wildlifecapture.com/net_gun.html
Guest OntarioSquatch Posted May 17, 2012 Posted May 17, 2012 I hope you don't mind me asking, but is there a Bigfoot nearby that you happen to know about? If so, You could set up a trailcam and nail some pics.
Guest OntarioSquatch Posted May 17, 2012 Posted May 17, 2012 lol no time to change underwear. It could be too late by then if you know what I mean...
