stereologist Posted November 18, 2022 #51 Share Posted November 18, 2022 Here are some excuses for BF: They bury their dead They can see trail cams and avoid them even on a moonless night They bury their scat They are very intelligent and avoid people The ebil gummint hides their existence They are supernatural beings They come from another dimension (whatever that is) They have anti-gravity abilities making the photos of them blurry They are like labradoodles and don't shed hair Their DNA is so close to humans that they go undetected They can sense when wildfires, floods, and other natural disasters will occur which is why a dead one has never been found Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as with footie's existence, a cover-up also requires evidence. Adding more claims just adds to the burden. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stereologist Posted November 18, 2022 #53 Share Posted November 18, 2022 So @tonecop45, you are suggesting you know a lot about this bigfoot. I ask all of the believers a simple question. So far all do not want to answer it. How many toes in a bigfoot track? Simple to answer I would hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can think of a million reasons why they are subjected to cover ups. One of them is they will be considered endangered causing lots of prime habitat to be closed to logging industry and other industries such as recreation and hunting. Doing this means less spending and less revenue and less taxes and screwed up economy. Edited November 18, 2022 by tonecop45 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never said I did as I am just researching them some more since my experience. I know nothing about tracks or anything else and I would have to ask professionals about that one.

Large areas are already closed to logging due to other creatures. Recreation and hunting are allowed in many areas where there are endangered creatures. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just read the OP story only: Papameter Reading Cryptid 70% Natural 15% 15% Hoax (Natural would include bear or human or human in costume) @tonecop45 I like people that stick to their guns (figuratively I mean). A source I respect says Ohio is a bigfoot hotspot. Kentucky is a boarder state, so....? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure about Ohio as I have visited the Northern areas of Columbus near Marengo and did not have that bad vibe like I did in Eastern Kentucky in Cave City area.
