Hiding in Plain Sight

How in the world can a huge hairy 8 foot tall bipedal primate able to stay hidden from us?

That my friends is a million dollar question.  You would think that these primates would have been officially discovered hundreds of years ago.  I know that they exist because of my investigations.  I have first hand knowledge of them.  I have seen, smelled and heard them.  My investigations have lead me to several conclusions about why they are so elusive.  I feel that they have evolved to stay hidden and it is in their DNA.  How can that be possible?  As any species evolves there are certain characteristics, instincts and physical factors that develop to help them survive.  This bipedal primate evolved through the years to stay hidden from humans.  They are very good at it but they are not quite a 100% hidden from our society.  The Native American stories and visual sightings give us glimpses of this elusive primate.

• 8 feet tall and black.  An average person such as myself would think the size and color would be a hindrance to them.  That is not the case.  Black becomes a shadow in the forest.  The size makes the shadow become part of the rock, tree or environment very easily.
• Big flat footed feet with a mid tarsal break.  This adaptation is ingenious.  This foot is able to move around in the uneven and brush-filled forest with ease.  I feel that this type of foot is harder to track because of these characteristics.  Not impossible but harder.
• Eyes that glow or shine.  To some this seems far fetched but this adaptation is real.  I have seen it many times.  This helps to navigate the forest in the dark.
• Zapping or sizzling that is electrical and/or infra-sound based.  My opinion is that it is both.  Since I have been sizzled before my impression that it is electrical based but also felt it was also infra-sound based.  This is a practical defensive mechanism for our forest friends to use from a distance but not pleasant for the recipient.
• Sounds and smells detected by people that compels them to leave without ever seeing anything.  Now that is a great defensive mechanism to deploy without confrontation.  Smart. 
• Geography of the environment that they live in.  That alone is a big factor on why they are so elusive.  If you have been exploring where I have then you would understand.  There is a reason why there are reports of lost/missing people in our forests.  Also the sheer size of the forest makes it easy for them to hide.  Needle in a haystack is a good description of investigating Sasquatch.
• Their intelligence is the number one reason why they have been so successful in hiding from us.  They are primates.  They can think things through.  They can process ideas.  They can problem solve.  Just these characteristics alone would make it hard to find them.  So when you are setting up a trail cam they are more than likely watching and why bother?  They will avoid or trigger it without being seen.  They are human smart.    

Even now if you want to go see mountain gorillas more than likely you will be unsuccessful.  If you hire a knowledgeable guide then you have a 25% chance to see one.  Snow leopards are even harder to find.  It took several National Geographic professional wildlife photographers 2 years to film 20 minutes of a snow leopard.

Our media is very misleading about our wildlife.  Just by watching the shows on T.V, it gives you the impression of ease.  Most of those shots took months and sometimes years to be able to produce enough footage for the show.  The reality is that our wildlife is hard to document in the wild.  It is hard work for a little bit of result.

Now you factor that into the equation along with Sasquatch's characteristics and adaptations then it does make sense on why they are so good at eluding us.  The most important reason on why they are able to hide from us is because of us.  We won't use our intelligence to problem solve this primate.  We can put a man on the moon but we cannot figure out a bipedal primate living in our forest.  This is because we refuse to recognize another human smart being that is as intelligent as us and won't factor this into the equation.  This is not a wolf, bear or other mammal that we are familiar with.  We need to look at commonalities and logistics that are reported about this species and then try something new.  WE NEED TO THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX.

Are you smarter than an average Sasquatch?  Probably not. 
    

What should our society do once this bipedal primate gets official recognition?  Will we have to restructure our whole forest system because of this species?  Will we lose the right to use our woods and forest?  Do we as a society have to domesticate them?  What is our obligation?

The reality of these questions will need to be answered soon.  It is only a matter of time.  I know they exist and I am pretty sure there are some officials in our park system who also know.  Why the denial is beyond me.

The answer to the pressing questions is to leave them alone.  Protect them from harm by making it illegal to hunt or kill them and then let them be.  For hundreds of years they have adapted to avoid us.  To allow them their own choice and to protect their right to live is the right choice.  Beyond that will probably be their downfall.  My hope is that this plays out the right way so this is a win-win scenario for all.

    

I had mentioned in a previous post that I started out as an arm chair researcher.  One of the benefits to doing background researching on the subject of BigFoot was getting a general knowledge of them.  This general knowledge gave me clues on behavior, characteristics, visual descriptions and habitat.  These clues were crucial in helping in my investigations.  In fact I still use this information.  Obtaining facts and comparing what I have collected/seen is a very important aspect of my investigations.  This is crucial if you want to be accurate and evidence driven in this endeavor.

The reason I mention this is because of what I read while reading hundreds of reports and sightings that happened in Canada and United States.  More I read more I saw patterns of similarities.  A picture of an unique bipedal primate was becoming clear to me.  I was seeing great ape and human characteristics.  Some of the things was a bit unnerving.  Mock charging, breaking trees, throwing rocks, screams, glowing eyes, peeking in windows and doors, dogs with unusual reactions or hurt/killed and terrible smell.  This is not all but these stand out in my mind.  The reports and sightings seemed at first to be unbelievable or impossible but when you factor in the sheer number of them, similarities and locations it make them compelling.  Some could be hoaxes but not all.  There are too many for that to happen logistically.

When I started my investigations I never dreamt that some of these characteristics or behaviors would be experienced by me.  I guess I wasn't thinking of that aspect when I started.  All I knew was that I wanted to sleep in the middle of a BIG tent.  I will admit that I was nervous and second guessed myself many times but it never stopped me from doing this.  This endeavor is too fantastic and rewarding.

• I have had rocks thrown at me.  Both times at night.  The one time I had seen eye shine just before the rock was thrown.  I have no doubt who threw the rocks.  The time and location made it no doubt.
• At 3:30 am small pebbles were thrown at the SIDE of the tent.  Not the top.  In the other tent 2 other investigators heard it too.
• Heard bipedal steps outside the tent and then the side of the tent was hit right by my head.  This was at 5:00 am.
• I had one run right by me.  It was so close I probably could have reached out and touched it.  The moon was suddenly covered when this happened.   It sounded like a football player ran by me.  A little too close.
• I have been growled at on 2 occasions.
• I have been grunted at.
• While using my facility tent heard bipedal footsteps walking around me.  It ran off when I stood up.
• Within 50 feet saw eye shine that kept changing colors and was walking towards me.

These incidents were a few that were a bit unnerving.  I now know that I am not the screaming type of gal.  In fact I am becoming a bit fearless.  FYI-I think they were trying to see how I would react.  Not hurt me.

My point is this:
If there is no such thing as a Sasquatch/BigFoot.  How do you explain what happened to me?  After each incident I examined the surroundings and analyzed the events as carefully as possible.  Mistaken identification and misrepresentation means absolutely nothing.  I want real evidence and nothing else.
