With them in the ditch it’s harder to push the snow off the 3/4 mile driveway.

@norseman, your driveway pic looks like it's from the opening sequence to a Bigfoot horror flick starring Lance Henriksen. 

You ever see signs of Bigfoot moving through your property, or even a Bigfoot for that matter? ...or maybe Lance Henriksen?

We are on my wife’s parent’s place in Newport Wa. But on my family ranch where my kids live now?
 

Yes. I witnessed a snow trackway as a kid in snow with my father.

 

And the ranch is just south of Bossburg Wa where the cripple foot event happened about a decade earlier.

If Bigfoot are a real species, they could exist as a meta-population. 

For anyone interested in this idea of a Bigfoot metapopulation, I go deeper into the subject on Substack this week. I think this idea offers an answer to a few Bigfoot mysteries and debunker arguments. And, it may explain differences in Bigfoot morphology reported in different parts of North America (e.g., PNW vs east Texas region).

Perhaps this is one tendon they are seen near human habitation-food.

Thanks for sharing. A very interesting read.

Just interesting basic food for thought:

 

"How much does a gorilla eat a day? A gorilla’s daily diet is quite substantial, with adults consuming around 40-50 pounds (18-23 kilograms) of food per day. In the wild, a gorilla’s diet typically consists of leaves, shoots, and fruits, with some species eating more fibrous foods like bamboo.  "

 

Easy if it's on a plate.   However, I have to think it takes further energy or calories just to round up the 50 pounds of food.  That scrounging for food has to expend some calories and thus additional need to add to that potion to meet its non sedentary needs.

 Yeah, that is why the herbivore and even a plant dominant omnivore modeling is a tough pill to swallow for Sasquatch. I am of the mind that protein and fat are dominant in the diet. That would alleviate many of the problems regarding area devastation and energy expenditure.

 

    1 pound of animal fat/ plant fat is around 3500.

    1 pound of animal protein ranges from 500 to 900.

    1 pound of huckle berries is about 170.

 

 If a Sasquatch wanted to eat well I think it would be fair to suggest that if they managed 2.5 pounds of fat, 5 pounds of protein and 3 pounds of fruit/leaves they would likely be in a surplus. That would indicate that you could meet the needs of one individual with just over 10 pounds of mass.
