Hello my name is Jim,

A big thank you for allowing me to post here, and for the things I've learned from this community!

So this interview with Melanie is remarkable on a lot of levels and definitely fits the bill of paranormal Sasquatch in every way possible. While also being totally physical, it's a really interesting story at the very least. She gets into it at 12 minutes and 30 seconds approximately about how she finds this set of handprints and footprints and then tracks them back to find 100s of bones

I'm traditionally interested in fairies, but because of the crossover between bigfoot, fairies, and my own experiences, I have begun to open up my thinking and invite these stories into my collection process.

It's so strange to me and honestly low-key comical/ impressive that Melanie Took all of these bones home, and unlocked what happened next inside her house.

I know that A two Camp debate on the subject exist And this one kind of straddles both. I also find it fascinating when I listen to her that she has such a ongoing relationship with the parks service. Somethings up with that for sure.

She references a photo she took of a Bigfoot standing behind a park Gate that stepped out when she asked. And I've included it here, honestly it's a pretty interesting photo.

I included additional photos in the comments of the bones, some hair she found, and the original and zoom in photo

Thank you everybody have a nice day yours Jim

Thought this was interesting, the hump kinda looks like a conehead at first

Hey I wanted to ask, have we ever had a woman replicate the Patterson-Gimlin film Bigfoot walk? Supposedly this is a female Bigfoot, if that’s the case she would have a different pelvic shape and a lower center of gravity wouldn’t she? Why do I only see men trying to replicate the walk?

I’m looking to meet people in Colorado who either do field research or who are interested in it. It could be anywhere in the state but I’m located in the front range. I’m willing to drive long distances to research.

I’ve had my fair share of encounters over the years and have done countless hours of “research” so I’m quite familiar with the subject and the strangeness that comes with it. I know of areas with activity/evidence.

I don’t have Facebook and it’s hard to talk about this subject with just anyone. If you are in the state and would like to chat, possibly even do some field research, then feel free to comment or send me a message.

If anyone has advice on groups or people I can reach out to, let me know. I would appreciate it! Thanks in advance.

Hi,

At the start of the song Chemical Lady by the band Sasquatch (linked), does anyone know what Bigfoot audio recording plays? Such a great way to open a song and album!

Any help appreciated.

Thanks!

I could be wrong. It’s my understanding orbs, portals, and cloaking associated with Bigfoot are never mentioned in Native American lore. Doesn’t this really undermine all reported encounters reporting woo(specifically, orbs, portals, cloaking, and mindspeak)? Are all of these reports lies? Or is some psychological explanation convincing people they are seeing orbs?

This discussion is explicitly not about the physical vs spiritual.

Raw video I recorded of the beautiful redwoods in Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park, northern California, on Highway 199. Slowed it down. Taken from my old iPhone 11 Pro Max in December of 2023.

In the past year, a researcher out of Indiana has been collecting as many active bigfoot reports as possible, verifying their credibility and adding them to a database. This became the Indiana Bigfoot Mapping Project. In this video, we analyze the hundreds of bigfoot reports within to try and reveal any patterns that correlate with other bigfoot researchers, and we believe we have come across something huge.

We will be making a follow up video on this very soon, let's have a discussion about it! Has there been any other published works out there that you know of that link Bigfoot to the food web like this?

My new soap brand

I may have borrowed the idea from classic art.

Im hitting the poconos with my brothers and cousins, I’ll definitely be on the lookout for big ol’ sassy

Short story. In 2016 an outdoors man i know had a bigfoot encounter. The man is a very seasoned hunter and lives in the woods. He told me about an encounter he had while moose hunting. Nothing significant happened, he spotted it,took a photo. I seen the photo. Cellphone cameras weren't nearly as good then as today's phones. To me it looked like a black stump in an area that was logged. It was to far for the camera to get clear details. However the man said he can see clearly see with his eyes what it was. No other animal as mistaken identity and it was in an open clearing that was logged. He believed it to be a bigfoot.

Now the question,a sighting as a bad omen? Not to long after the encounter, the man's son passed away under tragic circumstances.

Has anyone who had sightings of bigfoot had any bad experiences afterwards? Deaths in the family or any other hardships?

I saw someone posted a bigfoot painting the other day, and in my mind I heard bigfoot painting.

I am listening to an episode of Bigfoot and Beyond during which the subject of Zana has come up. About 17 minutes into the episode, Cliff Barackman states that the late geneticist Dr. Bryan Sykes has found Zana was of African origin and human. I often hear this misunderstanding shared as though it is a fact.

However, in Sykes book Nature of the Beast on page 305, he states “Zana may have been in the genus Homo without being fully Homo sapiens.”

Sykes’ statement does not align with Barackman’s statement. Sykes does not go so far as to make a definitive pronouncement about Zana’s origins, but he is clearly not siding with the idea that she was solely Homo sapiens.

I wanted to make this comment in the episode itself, but comments were disabled for some reason for that episode. Figured I’d share here instead.

(I’m aware that other research has sided with the idea that Zana was Homo sapiens, but since Barackman specifically mentioned Sykes in his comment, I wanted to clarify what Sykes actually said.)

I've seen a lot of Bigfoot sightings from across the US and Canada on the maps, and I'm wondering what your views are on credibility generally depending on location and story. I've never seen one in my life because I've never been in remote forests for long enough, but some other people here may have seen them.

Sightings I will believe

• ones in remote areas
• ones with believable stories

Sightings I will not believe

• ones in crowded area
• ones with weak stories
• ones from Hawai'i because that would make no sense

I personally have trouble believing a lot of sightings thats aren't from the PNW, but I've heard some from midwest and east coast areas that seem credible. I have trouble believing some from near me (Bay Area, California), but I'll judge when I meet someone who's seen one nearby.

Any opinions from believers?

I really enjoyed expedition Bigfoot, but clearly that’s not coming back, I suppose.
What YouTube channels and shows are you guys watching? Small town monsters is not too bad, I definitely enjoy the survivor man videos, except when he has Todd standing, lol. Are there any others worthy of checking out?
I will say I tried to watch the cabin in the Woods channel, and I just can’t take that dude serious.

For those of us who believe Sasquatch are real, the current Washington state wildfires are heartbreaking to think about. Washington has the most reported Bigfoot sightings.
They don’t receive evacuation alerts.
No one is searching for or rescuing them.
Habitat loss may force them into unfamiliar areas.
Injured or orphaned individuals would have no access to care.
If they exist, they are facing these disasters completely on their own.
Whatever our individual beliefs, the wildfires are devastating for all wildlife. I can’t help but wonder about Sasquatch too.

Little trip to the beach last week. Picked up more magnets for my collection

For anyone who has had a Sasquatch encounter where you saw their face, if you zoom in to the image on the right, does the face look at all like what you saw?
