big foots don't exist in America there are no bones of them ever found :) 

Or anywhere.The prints are probably a doubled up bear print as said.I think any big animal would have turned up by now.

I argue a Gigantopithecus could not never have cross the Atlantic ocean.

Well you’re correct, they didn’t cross the Atlantic Ocean. However, the fringe hypothesis is that they migrated through the Bering land bridge, which crossed the Pacific Ocean.

It looks a lot like bear tracks to me also, like hammer said. The middle goes are forward. Bigfoot tracks usually have the big toe being longest. Bigfoot tracks of that length are usually wider also. :D

I'd vote black bear.

Bats, I've spoken,or say got ear bashed by the foremost Yowie hunter in Oz, Rex Gilroy as I used to live near his shop in the Blue Mountains here.I've never seen a keener enthusiast.After two hours of his babble even Bobo would have given up.

The guy who found the tracks said they were not human. So at least he got that right.

My old man has a “well, this is weird” story about something yowie-ish. He was a copper and was called out to a house in the middle of bush - big trees, lots of distance between you and your neighbours etc - where the owner thinks someone is coming up to her door and running away. It’s scaring the dog etc. now, this is a bush dog, a mongrel made up of a bit of every nasty breed designed specifically to keep drug growers off the property by eating the slowest of them. It will, in fact, meet it’s maker one day after attacking a police officer (not my father) and chasing him around her house. It was nasty. It was big. It was territorial. 
And it was terrified. 
so out trot, in the middle of the night naturally, the towns two duty coppers. Dad and his partner. They’re already spooked because the dog was “as big as a bear”. And so they do a perimeter check. Nothing’s broken any fences. No foot prints. No tire marks. 
odd smell though. 
And then comes dad scanning the tree line with his torch.
“Hey, was that tree there before?” 
“Nope”. 
“Let’s go”. 
“Yeap”.

Yes I understand that. It’s just that you were referring to the wrong ocean in your post.

Is this idea at all likely?

Everyone into this stuff will recall the shipton print,

BH-Shipton1951.jpeg.8810d5156609dfc5bf6ae8e26c0def99.jpegam08f34g.jpg.477ef94a1153849019241324db5bcbd6.jpg

It was for hair covered bi pedal hominids what the surgeons photo was to nessie and after all these years i believe it to be just as big a red herring,

I never was much impressed with it in my early days of interest, its sloppy and doesnt look like much of anything definitive to me,

But as time passed and I learned more im convinced its an outright hoax or misidentified morphed track of a known creature,

I have an old 70s documentary a bit surprised to hear Hillary in a nonchalant yet confidentmy say, that's a bear track,

Slow down eddy, bear doesnt sell yeti sells,

Others right off said it was a double stepped track making it a quaduped or several yet is walking single file, i saw a bear expert look at the pic furrow up and say, if i saw this i would think bear track.

While the op track is dubious to me,  I think in other cases sometimes very sincere people see some odd track perhaps old, morphed whatever and it just has to be only can be bigfoot to them,  when i first got into this stuff i thought how can we have all these tracks but i was naive, gulluble, I didnt consider all the very likely possibilities, can i explain away 100% of tracks, no, I can't, but i also have a bigger question wheres the foot that left that track wheres the creature its attached to,

and since i do not subscribe to tin foil hat ideas like bf is the phase shifting interdiamental morphing ghost spirit pet of an alien then i have to just wonder why we have no creatures whose foot fits any track.

Q.How can he say the footprints aren't human?

A.Just maybe he made them in the first place.

The Appalachian forest has been logged, clear cut stripped mined and fought over in wars for centuries. It's been inhabited by Native Americans far longer, then occupied by Scotch-Irish immigrants, who've roamed those woods hunting and trapping since the mid 1700s. In all that time, no one has nailed a Bigfoot hide to a cabin wall. 

All that proves is that Bigfoots are darned hard to kill.  Perhaps they have bulletproof skin, or wear armour made of discarded Coke cans?  I haven't seen anyone discredit that theory, therefore it is as valid as any other. 

Using my usual approach based on no prior knowledge or research I estimate that the Appalachians can support a population density of one Bigfoot per square hillock.  If they are kinda tree-coloured and nocturnal I calculate no more than six human-Bigfoot interactions per ambiguous celestial period; most of which end with the human being eaten.  Also they probably spend a lot of their time underground, or maybe in Mexico.

Wtf is wrong with you? How on Earth does what the poster you're replying to, prove they were just hard to kill??? It proves they don't exist!!!!
