What's interesting is never has a serious attack by a 'bigfoot' ever been reported, I dont think ? and knowing man's inquisitive nature and the fact they were strolling thru the woods with a handy cam one day how at least one of them didn't want to film what could have been the scoop of the century, instead decide to run away. I know if that was me bigfoot would have to chuck Mrs bigfoot at me to get rid of me.
Actually, there have been reports of very aggressive Bigfoot attacks and even one guy claimed to have been kidnapped and held against his will. They are few and far between but they have been reported. I can't say if they are true or not really. I have no idea how true any of them are obviously as I wasn't there and stories often get retold and embellished over the years, however I know of one account in recent years where a guy was supposedly chased by a Biggy and he'd even fired a shot at him in hopes of scaring him off, which failed, causing him to run like a mad man and scared the bejeebers out of him.
Just for comparison, deer will avoid humans for the most part, however there are documented instances where rutting bucks and even does have attacked humans. While a species in general can be passive and most often choose to fled rather than fight, there are more aggressive types within those species and I see no reason to believe that, assuming of course, if they are real that the same wouldn't hold true for a large primate.
