Why would it be logical for two quadruped ursine species to produce a bipedal hominid species?I think if there is a sasquatch type creature roaming around, it's probably some sort of cross breed between two bear species. That would seem to be pretty logical, at least to me.
Sasquatch is roughly the size of a bear. We know bears exist because they leave remains, both modern and archaeological. You can find all sorts of bear bones throughout the history of North America, even a few bear carcasses.
No such record exists of the sasquatch. I find it hard to believe there's megafauna walking around in North America that we can find no fossil record of nor current proof of existence, and that said population would have sufficient numbers to avoid extinction.
So no. No such creature exists.
By the way, people who are into sasquatches refer to them as 'squatches' because it's the cool thing to do.
lol,... you guys are so funny! i am abit worried that with 120something views and only 17 votes that some of us are avoiding the question! come on, guys,.. no one will know if you believe!![]()
I've done a bunch of "Do you own" threads with polls recently. Poll participation runs about 10% of total thread views.
Not real.
REALLY really cool concept, and a great study in the power of suggestion and the malleability of the mind, but in the end, not real.
I wouldn't even call it an outright "hoax" as I'm sure that there are plenty of folks who sincerely believe what they saw was one. It's just that what they saw, was not a bigfoot.
The mind is absolutely awesome in what it can do sometimes.

does anyone have any encounter stories or know of some one who does? i'm sure the hunter/campers out there must of at least heard something weird.
I've camped in the Pine Barrens here in Jersey (Jersey Devil country) and I've hiked and camped in the mountains of Pa, upstate NY and I've heard lots and lots of creepy things in the woods.. foxes, coyotes..maybe a bobcat or two... just nothing unexplainable.
I'll believe it when they have one at the San Diego Zoo...Until then...Horse crap...
