Can You Really Shoot A Bigfoot?

[hiflier]

I think skepticskeptic is a fine screen name, xpider1 Because I can clearly see be skeptical of skeptics who dismiss things on their own confirmation-bias terms. Yeah, you'd have shown well there as a thorn in their sides.

Can you shoot a bigfoot?  Yes, you can shoot anything that is alive and in range of the shooter.    The rest of that Q might be What happens after you shoot one?   

 

I would think the chances of any bigtime trouble (jail) might be low due to the significance of the discovery.

Never happen. Poaching bear will be the worst charge.

 

And as a life-long hunter in good standing? Such a charge would ruin Norseman forever.

Run that by me one more time?

Sure, Backdoc said there would be no charges brought against a hunter for shooting a Sasquatch because the discovery would end up being so amazing. I could go into a big explanation but took the shortcut of saying that the hunter WOULD be in deep legal trouble- but not for shooting a Sasquatch. Because even if it WAS a Sasquatch that got grassed? Officially it would go on record as a bear poaching. And if you were the hunter, Norseman, a bear poaching charge would wreck you hunting career and standing with WSF&W.

 

Like I said, I could go into that further by bringing up creature monitoring, surveillance levels, and all the rest because of how unbelievably important this creature is but instead took the shortcut. Bottom line is that that Sasquatch shooting will become a bear poaching in short order, and there will be no way to fight it.

Quote

........Reality TV personality Harvey Neil Anthony, who professionally goes by Blaine Anthony and is known for his show “The Bear Whisperer,” faces federal poaching charges after shooting a bear in Kenai Fjords National Park and airing it on his show.

He and his production company, Nature Productions, Inc., face misdemeanor charges that carry up to a year in prison and a maximum fine of $100,000 per individual and $200,000 per organization.........

 

I hate courts. They cost BIG bucks.

First of all, if you have a black bear harvest tag in your pocket (I currently have five of them for the Alaska 2022-2023 season, ending June 30, 2023), they'd catch Hell convicting you of poaching a bear. All you'd have to say is, "I thought it was a bear. Sasquatches didn't exist. What else could it be?"

 

Use their own denial against them.

 

Always travel with a rifle, hunting license, and harvest tags in your possession. They are literally your ticket to kill just about anything, as long as it's in season.......or trying to harm you.........

For instance: https://www.cnn.com/2019/07/31/us/alleged-bigfoot-sighting-kentucky-national-park

 

The guy in that article, who was with his son, said that Bigfoot tore up their remote camp. Then some campers said they heard him at around 2am yell out, "There it is!" or "I see it!" or something like that. LEO park rangers showed up and the man, according to the article was NOT charged with anything even though discharging a firearm in a National Park, especially around a campground is illegal. Why wasn't he charged? I wasn't able to either find the man's name, or find if he was later charged with some infraction. The story just went away. And my guess is if it was really a Bigfoot and he killed it? It would be publicly stated that it was a bear.

 

Like that guy who DID get charged at a Colorado park even though he said he fired his gun to ward off a bear attack. Both the park in KY and the park in Colorado are under federal jurisdiction. So what gives with the shooting in KY?

Im not sure how they could charge me with Bear poaching without a dead Bear?🤷‍♂️

Yes and I'm pretty sure Norseman is careful about that. But it won't be good enough to turn a Sasquatch into a Sasquatch- it will still become a bear.

Tell me you're not that naive.  Sasquatch just isn't any creature...or it would have been publicly and officially recognized as of years ago. But that's not the case is it. Takes a lot of power to hide something like that that's roaming free. But I don't think it's roaming as free as most people think. Not this day and age. And that's the underpinning for why a Sasquatch that gets shot will never turn out to be a Sasquatch. It will be changed into a bear.

 

I am now convinced that the Sasquatch's whereabouts in now being actively and carefully controlled. And there's no way of telling how long things have been that way. This isn't conspiracy theory, this is a healthy respect how our current system operates. Especially where wildlife is concerned. And for how quickly LEO's can show up and manage things. If managing things involves Bigfoot then things will happen double quick. If Sasquatch is real, then this kind of stuff is also real.

 

Could go further and say that Sasquatches don't remove their dead. Special teams of Humans do that instead.

He was not charged later, although charges were threatened several times until he agreed to not speak about it publicly.  
 

I am sure that none of the higher-up Rangers wanted the couple in a courtroom, where they might have to testify about the sounds that they heard before the guy started shooting or about some of the other events that night.  .  
 

The shooter definitely didn’t want some of the more embarrassing details discussed publicly.  He has seemed to drop off the face of the planet after the dust settled.

Thanks, BTW, how've ya been. How's your son doing?

 

This whole thing has made me think of the coincidence that there's a SERE training program in WA. How convenient to be able to abate Sasquatch activity under the guise of training exercises, although I'm sure there is training going on there as well. I mean hard to think the trainees have never come across Bigfoot tracks, or not heard howls or wood knocking- or never had an encounter in all these what? Fifty years of remote survival work?

You believe there are special squadrons of people/government agents that’s main goal is to suppress Bigfoot ?

If thats how it plays out in your own mind? Have at it. But I would question who is naive…..

 

I buy a big game package every year. I also have a Idaho hunting license. I have held a hunting license since I was 10 years old when I passed hunter safety.

 

So I am in possession of a legal Washington bear tag. I’m also not sure how anyone could charge me with poaching a Bear if I didn't have said carcass in my possession. And even if I did? I have a tag.

 

If its all black helicopters and men in black cloak and dagger stuff? They probably wouldn't charge me with a crime. They probably would throw me down a mine shaft and and I would be another missing hunter. Im not saying it is. But people in Ufology have claimed the government threatened them if they talked.

 

Who knows.

[hiflier]

There's a thread somewhere buried down in the pages discussing an incident in 1997 in Northport, Maine. Remember it? Could be fun to dig it up. As to your question, teams handle nuisance bears so, yes, I think there are teams that remove nuisance Sasquatches in similar fashion. Nuisance meaning local or regional reports become too frequent and demonstrates a risk for discovery. And more than two could be considered frequent enough to deploy a team to go and handle the situation.
