Here to learn

[scutalus]

Hi all!

 

I just found this website tonight. I live in Ontario, Canada and have always been fascinated by the idea of bigfoot. I think people who insist there's no way it could exist are massively underestimating just how much wilderness there is, especially in Canada. The mountain gorilla was a also unverified once upon a time.

I look forward to speaking with everyone here

Hello to all! 

Like Fox Moulder says.... I want to believe. 

For me, the Patterson Gimlin film made me fascinated with Sasquatch. I am an avid outdoorsman whose loves to fish alpine lakes. I try to get out in the wilderness as often as I can although these last 2 years with Covid has made it difficult (as I'm sure all can relate). 

Im looking foward to learning more here on the forums and advancing the cause to finding this amazing and elusive animal.

Greetings,

I became interested in the Sasquatch hypothesis when I started developing a course on the culture of science and how the scientific community defines and enforces the boundaries of "legitimate" research questions. In my teaching and my research, I emphasize grappling with the best evidence with regard to any seemingly strange or paranormal phenomena. I am currently beginning collaborative DNA research to examine anomalous and alleged Sasquatch physical samples.

Hey all, used to be a member back in the early 2000's. Looking forward to maybe reconnecting with some of the other old-timers. I was Spork77 back then

This  Is on my mind right now I have been watching about Bigfoot encounters and how Bigfoot keeps messing with people and scaring them and people are so dumb they fire shots
They hit on trees trying to call Bigfoot and then when they see him they freak out why don’t these people just throw food at it obviously he’s hungry
It would rather fight back with sticks and throw stuff at it and try to shoot it instead why don’t they brother camping food at it obviously is hungry just annoys me

Hi, Found this site through researching Giant Black Panthers in my area I have never seen a Bigfoot type creature, but have seen other odd things, mostly Giant Black Cats with saber teeth. Just interested in other sightings of odd things in the Appalachia.

Delighted to have you joining, Darby. What else do you teach (love the idea of a culture of science course)?

Welcome back!

My main course is called "Science, Psi, Sasquatch, and Spirits," and so grapples with scientific approaches to several paranormal topics. I also teach a course on media representation of death and dying.

Nice! I would imagine that both of these courses are very popular with your students.

 Welcome BaidRiverGuy.  It is the 'saber tooth tiger thing' that goes back millions of years.  Always look back to see if anything is sneaking up on you. The look back procedure eases anxiety.

Good luck, be safe.
