Hey Bigfoot Researchers, Here's Some Free Ideas


I'm plotting and planning a BF hunt this late summer. I have it on my bucket list and you know I'm curious by nature and you probably also know my obsession with BF.

I tackle the thought of hunting BF like I tackle the ghost hunting world; from outside the box. Oh, hell, from outside the known universe!

I'm contemplating, if I were in the field, how would I go about this puzzle that is BF?

Other than finding a nice happy spot near a stream and on the muddy banks leaving him a pile of fish he doesn't have to work for so I can get his footprints, I can think of lots of crazy ways to find the beastie.

1. Is Bigfoot a Berry Crack Whore? My father was a leader in the world at installing programs for alcohol and drug recovery, cities and schools programs and such. One thing he talked about was an experiment with primates to see if they can be alcoholic and, yes, they like their booze. They also are known to eat overripe berries that have fermented to get a buzz. If man and primate like to get buzzed, you have to know BF does! So, you take a creature who instinctively wants a buzz and place him in the late summer setting when berries are overly ripe and you have a perfect opportunity for more sightings? Why? Because he's willing to trek along roadsides where berries most often grow, he's likely to be seen because he's hardly of keen senses. All it would take is a map of the US, the timing of fermenting berries, and you might see a correlation of where he's going to be and when. If you line that up with sightings, you might find a strong relationship between him being seen along more roadsides in September. Short of leaving him a fifth of vodka on a tree stump, this is the best way to think about a creature with the same genetic desire to get buzzed and how he would do it in his world.

2. Live Like BF For a Time. Yeah, we roll in with our tents and rifles, 4-wheel trucks and shit, but try and put yourself out there where BF lives for a time. Live off the land like he does, find shelter, seek signs of other humans (they are social animals like primates and humans, they have to be, it's in their blood). You're certainly not of his massive size, but you have to consider the basic of instincts no matter what his intelligence level. He will be driven to drink, eat, sleep and procreate. Procreate, huh? How does one Squatch find another? Scent? Footprints? Territory? What would be indicators of territory? Is human male urine scaring the off? These are all things to consider, but you must always think like your "prey" and you will know their habits and their territory. What factors does BF need in a safe place in the woods? A high spot where he can see who's coming? Or does he make a temporary camp in a new territory and move on? Does he avoid bears or follow them to see where they're finding food?

3. Watch the Bears. Seriously, there's mechanics to BF. What kind of mechanics? It's called size and muscle mass. For a creature to have that much size and that much muscle mass, the amount of calories in will be exceptionally high. He's not going to Starbucks and buying muffins and lattes like overweight Americans, so how the frag is he getting his calorie content? Well, let's look at bears-similar size, similar caloric needs. Where are the bears? Do they follow streams for fish? Where are they getting their food? What is their path? Are they territorial? Do they trek to other mountains looking for more food? You want to know your prey's habits, follow his buddy's. Learn the patterns, learn the parameters because BF has the same caloric needs and that is a driving force to stay alive.

Those are only a few free ideas for y'all. As a psychic, I'd honestly like to get into a place and get a sense of what's there. I'm very spatially oriented, so generally I go into a place and probe all the area around me to find the life there and I'm very attuned to "intent," that is when something's intent is upon me. You know how you can be in a restaurant and feel someone staring and lift your head and turn and that person is staring right at you even though you never saw them there? That's intention. We all have that sense, but mine is so keen that I know when someone is going to communicate with me because I know they're thinking about me, even if they haven't communicated in a long time. If I'm in a haunted place, I get the same sense going and in the woods, as well. I'd depend a lot on those instincts on the hunt.

  1. Bigfoot as a Berry Crack Whore. It is simply one of the best theories we have ever heard at Bigfoot Lunch Club.

    One of our biggest criticisms about the bigfoot research community, is we don't pay enough attention to the behavior of the known primates. Is it nocturnal, how do lemurs see at night? Related to the same ancestor as orangutans, what kind of social structure do orang's have. Do primates like to get a buzz on? Etc...etc..
    Keep up the great theories and help us think outside the box!

  2. Thanks, Guy. Yeah, I can't help thinking about primates in general; from apes to humans, we don't necessarily hide from others. Apes had their happy place atop a mountain and didn't care that villagers saw them. They also tended to be aggressive about territory (like human gang members), but you don't hear that in BF. It's like he's totally nomadic. I think about nomadic tribes of humans like Sami in Lapland or perhaps tribes of the Americas, and I realize that perhaps these cultures might tell us more about migratory humans and what provokes them and what size of a land mass they cover from season to season. We really have to quit thinking "furry creature hiding from us" and start thinking "half human/half ape trying to eat and survive"

  3. you know, my dad would paint those raspberries gold .

  4. No matter what you do, even if you see an upright walking ape in the woods, nobody will believe it unless you capture it alive and I doubt the thing will let you get anywhere near it. If you touch the berries and plant them in the woods, I'm sure the Bigfoot will smell your stench on the berries and stay even further away. When in doubt, use gloves and de-scent!

  5. Here is a link that basically proves that the idea of Bigfoot is a logical one.

  6. Yeah. The berries grow naturally along disrupted land, like along roadways and pathways. If more motorists are seeing BF during the time berries there are overripe, we might actually be able to find a predictor of where and when he might show up. I love that film of the gorilla. I am of the camp that BF is probably a descendent of Gigantopithecus blacki. I believe DNA has correlated American natives with those of the Asian continent and had we DNA from the Asian continent's Gigantopithecus black, we'd probably find a similar correlation with BF. And, similarly, although those of Asian continent and American natives are different in appearance, you will find the same with the Yeti and the BF depending on the needs of the environments in which they spent thousands of years.

  7. I watched the show. It was ok but these guys want to prove something exists rather than do a proper investigation.

  8. Yes, they remind me of the GH'ers I don't like to hang with, the ones who think every sound, every shadow is a ghost! I know they need to keep the pace up for the show and I really never expect true research on TV because we're talking about entertainment and not growth in the field, but I am glad the woman on the team is a skeptic. She keeps it balanced. BoBo so far looks like a guy who wants to go out and play, Matt seems a bit puffed up with hot air and pompous which reminds me of Biscardi a bit, but Cliff, I really like Cliff. He's a guy I would hand pick for my team if I were a BF hunter. Smart guy.

  9. I couldn't watch it. I don't get AP :(

    Has any Gigantopithecus blacki fossils been found in America?

    ReplyDelete
  10. Nope. But, then, we've only found molars and a few bits and pieces in China and mostly from apothecaries where they took bones they found and ground them up for medicines. Great, huh? We are really only on the surface with fossils in the Americas and even in Asia. So much yet to be discovered.

  11. How do they know if it stood upright?

    ReplyDelete
  12. As I recall, it's based on the pelvic bones they found. They were like humans, upright creatures. It's rather extraordinary. When I was in San Diego last Xmas, I stood next to a reenactment creature and it was like 12 feet tall or something ridiculous. BF is shorter, perhaps top end of 8' by estimates, but then evolving and moving continents can change that. They say that in cold continents, people are generally shorter and fatter and in hot continents taller and more slender and it's more a matter of metabolic needs.

  13. I just did some research on it and from what I found there is no evidence that they stood upright. It says that they probably weighed like 1,200 pounds and the females weighed about half of that. So, if they did stand upright, it was probably the females. 1,200 pounds is pretty heavy to be standing on 2 legs. Not even gorilla's stand on 2 legs and they weigh less than 600 lbs.

  14. Yes, it's the upper thigh bones they found that were slightly curved, showing the knees were closer together like humans. It is overwhelming when you consider a 1200 pound erect being, but then bears can stand on their hind legs. They don't have the pelvis and skeletal variations we have to be able to walk upright, but primates can walk on two legs. We film chimps doing it all the time and even gorillas, so it's possible. The skeleton of such a being that could hold that much weight and muscle mass erect and walk would be truly "big boned." We see 800 pound people who can't walk but then their skeletons were made to carry a max of 250 probably as far as evolution-wise. The skeleton of a blacki or a BF would be able to handle a dense muscular weight, but not perhaps an obese BF. God, if there's an obese BF out there, I want to learn how he did that without a Starbucks and Wendy's drive-through. :-)
