papageorge1 Posted May 1, 2022 #3 Share Posted May 1, 2022 I'm a believer from the quantity, quality and consistency of stories and other evidence. For example, this claims multiple witnesses and jumping a 10-foot fence. I do have to wonder if the horses are smarter than these people though. The horses escaped and left. The people came running back with pitchforks. 1 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old stories are still interesting as almost no one has heard of this case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earl.Of.Trumps Posted May 3, 2022 #19 Share Posted May 3, 2022 pareidolia păr″ī-dō′lē-ə noun The perception of a recognizable image or meaningful pattern where none exists or is intended, as the perception of a face in the surface features of the moon. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- With that said,, due to the way our perceptions are formed, humans would be far more likely to see a BigFoot and think of it a bear than visa versa The whole "saw a bear" theory has been pretty well shattered for some time, namely by citing states with BF's but with no bears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rashore Posted May 4, 2022 #25 Share Posted May 4, 2022 Some research and mapping for folks if anyone is interested. Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization: BFRO has been collecting stories since 1995, and their collection goes back to the 1920's and up to this year. There's a few thousand there. It also has a section of early folklore and mapping: http://www.bfro.net This one started last year as part of University of Minnesota's data visualization and analytics boot camp. Here's the article about why they did it: https://www.trilogyed.com/blog/mapping-the-truth-how-one-group-of-data-analysts-cleaned-up-dirty-data-to-find-bigfoot/ And here's the mapping- it does UFO's and BF, but the layers can be split up: https://btroolin.github.io/Mapping-The-Truth/ ArcGIS hub has a 3,800 story mapping of North America: https://hub.arcgis.com/datasets/ECU::bigfoot-locations/explore?location=36.178274%2C-92.272069%2C4.46 And a fun google mapping. Not of stories themselves, but of the various kinds of BF around the world and where those legends take place: https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/viewer?msa=0&dg=feature&mid=1Ak-BQArjKb2uY6NfenxeV1ga16M&ll=27.20131148490992%2C26.79481140528617&z=2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
