Celtic Raider Posted August 28, 2019 Posted August 28, 2019 Thinking about the information they collated on the home range section where they painted a picture of seasonal movement to different areas, have they actually been back to any of those specific sites at around the times the tracker indicated the animal was there? They did show quite specific times the animal was in various areas and I believe they narrowed the locations down to within 100m - I couldn't see any follow up articles or further reports about possibly scouting out the locations at a similar date but the following year or after that.........

I would say that if they did tag a bigfoot , it confirms the hypothesized behavoir of being very nomadic, especially when pursed by people.

If true, anything that doesn't promote that goal (i.e., DNA collecting, radio tracking for the sake of radio tracking, videos, track casting...) would probably be seen by them as a waste of resources better spent towards achieving the goal. It will take that kind of focus to succeed. I found this quote from their paper page 16 at the bottom, it's one of their identified objectives. Quote Recover a discarded tag for a DNA sample, or secure a type specimen.
WSA Posted August 29, 2019 Author Posted August 29, 2019 There you go ^^^^^ Of those, I'm betting one objective would supersede the other, given that by achieving that one, you would achieve both at once.
southernyahoo Posted August 29, 2019 Posted August 29, 2019 I tend to agree that they would probably pass on the DNA. But it looks good on paper. With all the human results looming, it could be counter active to their end goal.
