For me to even entertain the idea that Bigfoot exists, I'd need to see something more. There should be fecal matter & dead bodies, for one thing.

The contention is that the federal government usually intervenes, takes the evidence, and pays people off or intimidates/threatens them. It sounds crazy, but those Bigfoot hunter whackos really are getting some crazy federal attention. Not sure what to make of it.

For instance, a few years ago, one of them uploaded video of an absolutely destroyed campsite. Everything was scattered around. The thick trees arou d the camp were snapped in half and their trunks thrown around, in one case a whole tree was thrown right into a tent.

Now.. They could have faked the scene, right? They could have used chains and large trucks to snap those trees, dragged the around, etc. Destroying the camp itself wouldn't be difficult. People would just dismiss it.

But allegedly the people who filmed it were threatened with prison for disturbing a "crime scene". The government got YouTube to take down the video, but it was too late. People just keep uploading copies.

I can't find any actual crime reports but this guy really did have to go to court for this.

There might bve more to it. I don't know. But it's weird that they give so much of a shit about "Bigfoot hunters" walking around national parks.

I mean.. If anything, you'd think the government would want to use these guys as a resource to locate any criminal activity out there such as pot farms and squatters.

....or, it's a chimpanzee. They have zoos in PA?

That photo is a small black bear. I have seen enough of them around here because the fucking hippies protect and feed them.

If sasquatch are real, a photo wouldn't be ambiguous. It's an eight foot tall hominid for fuck sake.

Not unless it's starving to death... That would be one fucked up bear.

Nah. I have seen them that small and scrawny. It's not unusual, especially for young ones.

I only have heard stories about those "men in black" coming to the scene after the fact BUT those are for aliens. I doubt that the Federal government really would care about Bigfoot IF it was real. Also, I would imagine that if they are real, then other things need to be figured out on how they could survive. Like, are these territorial animals and if so, then how many miles does one animal (or group) takes/needs to survive/thrive under, etc...?

Going back to the government IF they do know then they really don't care because we still haven't found ways to weaponize our known animals (I honestly have seen any government program design to create weaponize bears, etc...).

Yes, we do have black bears in PA (they are everywhere) and that was the first idea that this was just a bear with mange or something. BUT people always come back to the way to the position it was taken:

here is the Youtube video:

In my opinion, it would be more realistic for an ape like creature to walk like an ape:
