Guest BuzzardEater Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 With the money involved providing a bigfoot carcass, I've a tough time believing those involved poaching bigfoot wouldn't turn in the body for the money. I daresay it has happened. I think the officials would have the option of pressing charges in a John Doe homicide. At the minimum they'd have you on interference with human (prove it isn't!)remains. That is enough leverage to shift anybody. If you shoot a bear down, approach it and find it is a young girl with the top of her head blown off, what would you do? Remember, horrible howls are getting closer as you wait, trying to think. By the time the roars get deafening, I suspect most people would try to be somewhere else. How much shock can the average guy take? Suppose you make it to town. What are you going to say? To whom? To what end? I admit this assumes you didn't throw the body into a spare pocket on your cargo pants. The Sheriff says "Great! Let's go get the evidence!" What awaits you back at the scene, assuming you have enough daylight to return? An angry family unit that averages a thousand pounds per member? More likely, the body will have been removed and returned to the holy place for burial and you are left with an empty scene and a skeptical Sheriff. "False Declaration", I think they call it? Maybe you are a calm guy and you gather some gore before you escape. What do you say when the DNA tests determine it was a human? Are you a hero, yet?
Incorrigible1 Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 So much supposition. In the ever-evolving mythification of bigfoot, it's now a proven fact that if a creature is killed, it's ever-present family will wreak havoc upon any helpless human found in the area. The body is quickly dispatched by the sasquatch disposal team. The creatures are simply long lost humans. Where does this come from? I think it's all guesswork that is seized upon and built up until it becomes part of the lore of the sasquatch. The suppositions and guesses become half-truths about bigfoot and so the myth is continued, grown, and expanded. There are no police reports of humans torn limb from limb in the woods. Not every bigfoot in the woods is accompanied by avenging families.
georgerm Posted July 2, 2011 Author Posted July 2, 2011 If Bf had guns and shot at us at the same rate they get shot at, what would we do?
Guest Silver Fox Posted July 3, 2011 Posted July 3, 2011 http://robertlindsay.wordpress.com/2011/06/29/bear-hunter-interview-part-2-more-outrageous-bigfoot-allegations-and-revelations/ Now we have reports of a mysterious trapper who lives with BFs. Can we find him and who will go? The guy who says he was kidnapped by BF's for breeding purposes lives in McBride, British Colombia.
georgerm Posted July 4, 2011 Author Posted July 4, 2011 The guy who says he was kidnapped by BF's for breeding purposes lives in McBride, British Colombia. Well, can we get a name and have someone call him so his story can be documented? We need to put our researchers to work.
georgerm Posted July 9, 2011 Author Posted July 9, 2011 Mainstream science with loads of cash ignores BF. Where are the well financed teams of primatologist and expert field researchers who should be in the woods photographing BF? If the shooting of two BFs and DNA analysis proves BFs lives, will the mainstream primatologist take over the glory of BF research? Look at those who received awards for field work. Will they scramble to get funding for BF research once the Erickson and Olympic Project prove BFs existence? We congratulate Dr. Sussman on receiving this prestigious award and for his leading role in mentoring and inspiring a new generation of field primatologists and encouraging students and colleagues alike to advance our science by questioning, rethinking, and challenging theories and assumptions of primate origins, socioecology, foraging strategies, mating systems, human nature, and the evolution of cooperative behavior. Dr. Sussman's Distinguished Primatologist presentation at MPIG was titled "Rethinking Sociality and Cooperation in Primates.â€
Guest JimF Posted July 9, 2011 Posted July 9, 2011 Not that strange - bigfoot folklore is closely tied to remote, forested habitat because this is where we've been told bigfoots live. Forests grow where there is abundant rainfall. Sooo... pretty much anywhere. http://maps.howstuffworks.com/united-states-annual-rainfall-map.htm

The Ivory Billed Woodpecker had 5 million in funding (http://www.fws.gov/s...odpecker-FS.pdf) and NOTHING was found. The entire hoopla was based on a couple of blurry photographs and recorded sounds. Sounds familiar huh? IF is the operative word at this time. Grants come with the principle and expectation that research will produce results. No results, no more grant money. Academia will need a body before they step up to the research plate en masse and take sasquatch study seriously. Until this happens, continue speculating. Edited July 9, 2011 by wudewasa

Forests grow where there is abundant rainfall. Then by that logic there should be BF encounters in Hawaii, but there aren't.

If we were spending this money on BF research, the mystery would be layed to rest. Let's hope the Sierra Killing amount to DNA proof of BF, then mainstream primatologist will get involved. 1 Fact SheetIvory Billed Woodpecker Federal Funding Package Department of the Interior Funding: $5.0 million, consisting of: Habitat Partnership Grants: $2.0 million. • The Department and the Service will work with the States of Arkansas and Louisiana, the North American Wetlands Conservation Council, and the Migratory Bird Conservation Commission to develop a package of grants to support protection and restoration of habitat for the Ivory Billed Woodpecker. • Funding will be considered from the North American Wetlands Conservation Act, the Cooperative Endangered Species Fund, and the Private Stewardship grant programs.
