Hey Monkey Brain! Bigfoot Is Real or Fake?

I just thought to run a little debate about a sasquatch. It is the mythical creature.

Bigfoot or Sasquatch is alleged to be an ape-like creature inhabiting remote forests, mainly in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States and Canada. Bigfoot is usually described as a large, hairy, bipedal ape. Believers in its existence contend that such an animal, or close relatives of it, may be found around the world under different regional names, most prominently the Yeti of the Himalayas.

ALSO KNOWN AS 



The Sasquatch also known as the bigfoot, the snowman, the Yeti of Tibet and Nepal, the Yeren of mainland China, the Orang Pendek of Indonesia, and the Yowie of Australia.

BIGFOOT 

Bigfoot, also known as Sasquatch, is an alleged ape-like creature purportedly inhabiting forests, mainly in the Pacific Northwest region of North America. Bigfoot is usually described as a large, hairy, bipedal humanoid.

The scientific community considers Bigfoot to be a combination of folklore, misidentification, and hoaxes, rather than a real creature. In general, mainstream scientific consensus does not support the posited existence of megafauna cryptids such as Bigfoot, because of the improbably large numbers necessary to maintain a breeding populationBigfoot hunting and because climate and food supply issues would make such purported creatures' survival in reported habitats unlikely.Sjögren, Bengt, Berömda vidunder, Settern, 1980, ISBN 91-7586-023-6 Despite these facts, Bigfoot is one of the more famous examples of a cryptid within cryptozoology.

ROGER PATTERSON GRIMLIN FILM 

The Patterson-Gimlin film (also referred to as simply the Patterson film) is a short motion picture of an unidentified subject filmed on October 20, 1967 by Roger Patterson (Wall, South Dakota, February 14, 1926 ? January 15, 1972) and Robert Gimlin (Missouri, October 18, 1931) who claimed the film was a genuine recording of a bigfoot. The film has been subjected to many attempts both to debunk and authenticate it. Some qualified scientists have judged the film a hoax with a man in an ape suit,...

Patterson Film A Hoax? 

Patterson Film A Hoax?

Facts about various claims that the Patterson Film is a fake. This is straight from the BFRO, I take no credit for it. I do not condone the actions of the BFRO, especially the fact that they seem to operate as outfitters and guides (while charging lots of cash) on federal lands without a license or permit most of the time, BUT they do have an impressive database of reports, photos, audio and video for independent researchers (or anyone) to access. For that, I thank them.

Yes, you're right! Sasquatch is a hoax!

The_Homeopath says:

While I do believe that there are many, many "undiscovered" animals in this world, I do not think that the classic "bigfoot" or "yeti" exists anymore than the Griffon or the Sphinx or Dragons or Unicorns exist.

mulberry says:

I have no idea, but I'm sure of one thing...I don't want to run into one.

susannaduffy says:

Difficult answers to choose from. Just because so much fakery has gone on doesn't negate the fact that there COULD be a Bigfoot up on them thar hills.

mrglam says:

daria369, I disagree with you.
"There were several sightings reported in the...".
Well, you are not going to believe in what I'm going to tell. I'm reaporting that I have just seen an INVISIBLE MAN. Do you start believing in invisible man? I have just seen one. Could you deny it?
"Scientists are discovering an amazing number of new plant and animal species"
So how could it be that they have never discovered a Bigfoot? They have only discovered reports about Bigfoot and some fhotos like these:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yn0sbfuDGnk&eurl

IsisAriadne says:
"few truly believe in them because they're already hunted enough."
It can prove only that they just does not exists. It looks funny then scientists are finishing their ten years expeditions with only a photos of bigfoot footprints. Poeple are hunting not for fun, they are sponsored and gets high salary.

If you would start claiming that you saw a bigfoot you would become famous, if you have his footprin yyou would become much more famous. But if you would start claiming that you have just ridden on a pegasus, a flying horse, poeple would think you are crazy. Am I right?

LisaMarieArt says:

Looking at the evidence presented here, Sasquatch is a hoax! Something similar may well have existed at some point in evolution but until there's hard proof that it exists now, then I find it hard to believe. The same goes for the Chupacapra. Who's to say that somebody didn't just see something in the middle of the night and their eyes played tricks on them making it look like something in folklore. The dark can do some funny things to our senses. and we human have a tendency to embellish things! The little girl with the fairies in her garden eventually admitted that it was a fake, and just look at how many ghost fakes there are! What makes this sasquatch any different? Margo_Arrowsmith says "We don't invent anything. If we can think of it, it exist in some form." I can think of a man-eating sofa with 4 legs, a tail with a mace on the end and a huge set of razor sharp teeth.... I find it hard to believe that that exists in some form. Man made yes, naturally occurring, no!

No way, Monkeybrain! Sasquatch is for real.

JustAls says:

Well... I have to say that I've been in that area... and definitely I wonder... but yes, I think he might be real....

IsisAriadne says:

I agree that Bigfoot is real. There are reports of them all over the world in all sorts of different cultures. Isn't that a clue?? For example, we have the North American Bigfoot, the Himalayan Yeti, the Chinese Wildman...etc. These creatures do not like humans and have no desire to be around them. Nor do they wish to be caught. Who would? Besides, absence of evidence does not prove evidence of absence. You can find detailed reports of sightings and encounters online. You can't ignore all the cultural indication from all over the world that such a creature exists. On the other hand, maybe it's better that they are a myth, that few truly believe in them because they're already hunted enough.

ElizabethJeanAllen says:

There are many things in this world we do not understand. I beleive Sasquatch exists but then I also beleive in ghosts, vampires, and werewolves.
Lizzy

daria369 says:

There were several sightings reported in the are where I live. I'm not a "seeing is believing" kind of person - I believe that anything is possible! Besides, scientists are discovering an amazing number of new plant and animal species - so why not Bigfoot?

Spook says:

The funny thing about folklore, is that it had to start somewhere,therefore there must be a degree of truth in it, all evidence to the contrary not withstanding.

Honestly we have got nothing, try to carefully read the first line of that article you just gave us. Article says: "The Yowie is an unidentified hominid reputed to lurk in the Australian bush".
Sad but we have Yowie in tales only.

These are indeed rare creatures-- wonderfully gifted to have both eluded scientific validation and survived into the modern age. Encounters between their kind and humans are proportionately few. Only folks with personal experiences seeing, hearing and living near these creatures glimpse the truth. Until an investigator recovers physical remains, BF creatures will continue being taxonomically unverified. Most people remain blissfully ignorant of their presence and proximity across North America.
