I don't know i think theres a 30/70 chance for reallity. I mean there are no known ape that evolved in northamerica. All the native armerican came in throuhg alaska but because the yeti in the himalayans is also around the same area that the firts ancestors of the people who came across the bering land bridge. But also I find it hard to believe that these creatures would be that hy as to not be sighted by areliable witness. I mean people can call me a sceptical ass all they want but i won't fully exept until i can have a dancining bigfoot avatar as well.

Just a quick reason why I don't disbelieve. When westerners ventured to China and saw the Great Panda, it took 67 years to find one in the wild. 67 years to find something that we knew existed. 67 years.peace

Don't forget to read the reports, sightings maps of US & Canada
Then please read the other stories from pre-Columbian & Native American History.

Lets take a field-trip!

The only trait that distrubs me is why they come so close to the remote country homes and peek inside windows

Why hasn't anyone ever found any bones from a dead one.....?

People always ask this as if animals never dispose of bodies. I have herd of a troop of elephants that take there dead and throw them over cliffs in to what turnds in to a elephant grave yard after a few generations of that troop. BigFoot probly does the same thing maybe even more orginized.

I give it 5% chance of being a real animal. I hope they do find proof. It would shake up alot of things.

Secondly, if you're reffering to the Patterson footage, that is a proven fake unfortunatley.

That is far from true.

That film has always been questioned, but never proven fake. In fact that video is the video used the most to prove Bigfoot exists. Last news I heard about it, before this, there was a buldge in the right quadricep, from a possible injury, which is clearly visible, that researchers said further proved that the Patterson Bigfoot was not a man in a costume. The movement of of the muscles under the hair, the contraction of the muscles, it is all clearly visible in the Patterson film, and I am unaware of any other supposed Bigfoot videos that shows it.

We still have whole cities where the locations are generally known and stumble around for years actively seeking them before they are discovered. If it takes us years to find lost cities that stretch for miles, it certainly isn't hard to believe it will take us much longer to find a few creatures that are on the move.

In the twentieth century alone, the gorillas were considered a myth/folklore until they were discovered. The pandas had a similar story as someone else has pointed out already. We are always finding new species. And if this bigfoot turns out to be intelligent like almost all the myths related to them say, then we are looking for a creature/species that is actively evading us on purpose.

Actually...I watched a show that had one of the guys there and he said it was a hoax and that they faked the whole thing.

It broke my wittle heart...

BUT...I still believe in good ol' Sasquatch. I've heard him....and seen him...and smelt him!

Walken-I have been researching this subject for over 20 years. I am curious to see where you find that the Patterson footage is fake. If I had to give a percentage of hoax to real-only 5%of scientists, film experts and biomechanical engineers say it could be a hoax. That leaves 95% who believe the footage to be real. Millions of dollars have been spent as recently as 1998 to try and recreate this footage. Even with the technology advances-it cannot be recreated. That footage is from 1967. A lot less technology. peace

Did you say that it can't be duplicated? Geez, I guess you didn't see the movie
"Harry and the Hendersons"!?

indeed, if i were to see that guy dressed up like in the movie, i would firmly believe that it was a real bigfoot, well if the movie hadn't been made of course....

although was that kind of costume available in 1967?

[bizarre angel]

just to add a little to the 'why don't we ever see any bones' when was the last time you saw a dead badger?a live badger?an theres thousands of the little buggers snuffling around the uk.i was brought up in the country and i never saw one...

[ForRizzle]

They rarely find Bear bones.. Bears often die during hibernation under the brush or in a dark cave.. Add years of natural weather, decay, and animals and insects picking at it.. It's not hard to see why we dont find any bones. Especially in the case of bigfoot where the population may be small to begin with.. I mean look at that stupid woodpecker they found last week that was supposed to be extinct.. Why did they never find dead "extinct" Woodpeckers proving they were actually alive? Because there are not many around and they die in remote places and erode.

[napoleon883]

i believe that its real...

[TheManWithNoName]

I'm pretty sure I believe in him, see I thought awhile ago I heard that the Patterson footage was fake too (I not saying it is or isn't just saying what I heard) but I've heard alot since then saying it isn't.
