BugMaster Posted April 8, 2022 SSR Team Share Posted April 8, 2022 Hey everyone, USGS just published migration data for ungulates in the west! A lot of people hypothesize that Sasquatch follow migration routes for prey availability... but is that true? I've added a screengrab of a quick map I threw together. To really get the picture, we would need to subset out reports in certain seasons to match the data, but by and large, I do not think the data supports the hypothesis that Sasquatch follow ungulates. Only 1 area on the map shows a good overlay of reports and migration routes/corridors (Eastern CA). BTW- blue heat is more reports on this heatmap. I'll subset out by season later and get a real picture to match winter areas and seasonal migration times. But for now, here's a shotgun spread. Who knows, subsetting may bring out a better picture. Remember that correlation does not equal causation! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huntster Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Thank you! Too bad it doesn't include blacktail deer data. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
