Eldorado Posted January 15, 2021 #1 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Four friends were heading to their home on Highway 6 just south of Silverton on the evening of Dec. 25, 2020, when the people in the front of the vehicle saw what looked like a “huge, man-like figure” on the side of the road. “I didn’t see the creature myself, I saw the prints,” says Erica Spink-D’Souza, who was in the back seat. She’s become the informal spokesperson for her companions. “But the person on the front seat cried out ‘Oh my gosh look at that!”’ “They said it looked like a huge grizzly, or it was a large man, standing up.” Full story with pics of big footprints at The Nelson Star 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, Swede, C'mon. Your prejudice has allowed you to cherry pick a sentence fragment and use it in a way that satisfies your predetermined result. Allow me to show you how an objective person collects the evidence in this specific regard and let's see if the "sighting" really is just that. 1] “I didn’t see the creature myself, I saw the prints,” says Erica Spink-D’Souza," - If she never saw the creature, how would she know it fled on all fours? 2] “We saw all these different tracks, and then we saw these tracks that were really alarming,” she recalls. “They were bipedal tracks in a straight line into the woods… So we know that regardless of what an unknow source may have said, Bipedal creatures do not scurry away on all fours. Some witness/reporter was just plain WRONG. Also, the picture of the prints should stand as good evidence that whatever made the prints was bipedal. In the end there may not be a way to say with 100% certainty that the prints are "unhoaxable", as Matt Moneymaker claims. However the difficulty and expense involved just to play a joke on society at large seems to make "hoax" an unlikely result. And if so, since the witnesses in the car claim they saw the actual creature, then they would have to be the hoaxers or part of the team, anyway. Better than 50-50 chance this was a real sighting of a BF. Edited January 18, 2021 by Earl.Of.Trumps to add Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But after investigating the scene and examining the tracks carefully, the team put a damper on the excitement. “They suspect the tracks are from a very large moose,” said Moneymaker, who’s based in California. “The witnesses may have seen a large female moose facing forward and mistook it for a man-like figure.” Oh lookee, it's a rare mutation:MOOSEFOOT! 5 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
