Lol, driving home from the club late one night its back roads i see i see a coyote on the side of the road all humped up dumping a load i really do not know if it was suffering from hemorrhoids but you never know.

But...was it howling?

It's always entertaining when someone automatically goes with the BF story for sounds and such. Complete weirdos who don't remotely consider rational and natural explanations.

Poked around a bit on this story... turns out there is a bit more backstory to this than just this recent recording.

Well, i was going about 45 windows up AC blowing i cant say i heard howling but it did have an expression of what i would guess a coyote with a pounding hem would look like, poor creature, perhaps i should check if any bigfoot yells were reported around the area that night.

"Weird sounds I'm not familiar with? It's Bigfoot, it has to be."

Its the same idea across all paranormal subjects, a person sees/hears something and they dont know what it really is so they make a jump from "i dont know" to "it can only be _________" ( fill in something paranormal ) and they call us skeptics narrow minded.

Idk people like to belong or feel special if one hears a coyote with hems thats just not as cool as hearing bigfoot.

Interesting that she called it bigfoot and not the grassman.

Meh. It is outside the core area of grass man a bit. Also, a lot of folks toss all folklore of this type under the BF umbrella and toss it like a Kleenex. It's become increasingly common for a while now. I'll be harsh here and guess they are more google lore than folklore. Though I too would think there would have been more research put in by now considering the history there. 

And for a moment to suspend disbelief.. if it is supposed to be three calls, why not a couple grassmen and a BF coming over to visit? The OP don't know any better 

To be a bit more realistic though. In a way, it reminded me of a horn call from when I marched as a kid. It was a couple of horn players starting to warm up- there was always a couple or few the weekend before the competition. There would be a call, then another... then it would stop because I assume an adult told them to stop it. It also reminds me of early summer mornings when a lonely heron or two would call out.. or events when the coyotes were out and someone's dog gives a bay or two. Especially when there's a new one or few for the Fourth of July weekend.

 A lot of the PNW folklore has been twisted over the years to fit and justify the Pro BF narrative.

Guyver,  it's all psychological. You yell grassman, everybody says, "Huh? What?" You yell bigfoot , we've got a panic on our hands on the unexplained mysteries forum.

[Guyver]

Well, I’m pretty sure a new season of Expedition Bigfoot is about to drop….so, that’s interesting for sasquatch researchers.

I agree that audio evidence was not compelling.

Curious as i havent had TV since i moved how many seasons are they up to and how many bigfoot have they found? Do they have a live one in a cage or a dead one on a slab?

I'm a BF researcher and I personally think the show is nonsense.

Really?  They use all the gear a “real” sasquatch researcher would use in the field if money were no object.  I would have thought you would appreciate that.

The way they operate in the woods is ridiculous. They have a sizeable film crew that goes along with them. then they're all out there slam banging around the woods. If an animal doesn't want to be seen, these morons give away their position and direction of movement easily so the animal can move away.

I use a lot of the exact same gear as well. On some extended camping trips I deploy 20 trail cams on top of the equipment I keep on hand. if they use passive methods they don't investigate beyond very sketchy items they report as BF allegedly. I do, that's how I normally find out I was incorrect in what I think I'm seeing.

It's almost as if they know they'll never find anything.

I like this quote:

"When you see something like this, it becomes very personal," Megargle said. "It kind of becomes your creature."

Megargle said people in three cars reported seeing Bigfoot walk across an intersection.

"They saw the same thing," Megargle said.
------------------------------------------------------------------

What I like in evidence of the eyewitness variety is that you have - not more than one person, but more than one person of different groups.
It greatly reduces the chances of fakery because of having to deal with conspiracies. Thanks, Rashore.

Multiple eyewitnesses don't solidify anything. They just corroborate a story as told, not prove it's true.

Who cares what Megargle said.  It's not what she said, but what she can show.

No, it doesn't.  What if multiple people saw a man in a footie suit?

Who's talking "proof" here? I'm looking for probability. And yes, the more separate witnesses with the same account, the more probable the account is true.

There is zero probability at this point, and I'm one actually going out looking for the alleged creature.

More witnesses do not make it truer. But we've already gone over this, haven't we? When you have time read the cases:

Of course no one is talking proof there is none, duh. And there is no supportive evidence either so we move to "probability" and that is all about weighing supportive evidence and there is none. So probability of BF being real way less than zero.

And separate witnesses with the same account is very weak because people have been salted seasoned to have an expectation what if it were real a BF would look like at this point the fact everyone does report the same thing is another nail in the coffin its anything but BF.
