Outside of a complete body, dead or alive, there will never be enough proof for those who don't believe that Bigfoot exists.

There IS DNA, and they dont know what it is.. but the trick with DNA is you have to have something to compare it to. Until someone drags on in, its just "unknown" DNA sample... They dont look at the DNA and it say "This is from a 900lb, 8 foot tall, bipedal hominoid... |

Ahhh, so some people actually DID shoot at big foot with deer rifles but could not bring them down! I knew it!

I think most unbelievers don`t seem to realise that bigfoot/sasquatch is a HIGHER Primate,its inteligence is equal to that of chimps others,the only reason more aren`t seen is that these things have a thought process,they know what a gun is they know that a game cam attached to a tree,just don`t look right in the woods and therefore avoid it....
I think there are some people out there with good DNA,but it only comes back as Uclassified Primate,and with nothing to compare it to,its unconclusiave.... is kinda like tryin to catch a 10-12 year old kid in the woods,that dosen`t want to be seen. so how can we go about getting a muddydog Ban lifted???

Well that's one of the problems with the argument of BF proponents. They will often say tons of people have seen them, sightings all over the place, and then turn around and say nobody can find them because areas are too remote and the BFs are too elusive. |

Ever hear of Gigantopithecus? [/quote] Just googled it, thanks. They speculate it walked on all fours like an ape but without a pelvis they can't know for sure. Jaw possibly suggests bipedal. Again though, this thing supposedly died off 300,000 years ago and yet we have some fossils. I would think if it existed here in some form or another we would have fossils such as they found in Asia. |

Arundel Mills Let's hear the naysayers explain this away. And it wasn't a bear. I saw the tracks. I was once driving along a snow covered road in Northern Maine. It was snowing HARD- big flakes that were sticking to the road. My windshield wipers were barely able to keep up. It was night, and my headlights on my old Toyota Celica were not the best. I saw what looked like two people standing in the middle of the frigging road directly in my path. I locked up the brakes and lost control of the car (I was young at the time- I now know how to drive in the snow ). I crashed into a snowbank on the side of the road. I kicked open the door and yelled at the two assholes that were standing there like morons.
What loomed over me was a bull moose. He was motionless. I watched his breath turn into vapor. He grunted at me and stamped his foot. I got back into the car. The moose trotted off. My point is my brain saw two people standing there. I could not see the belly of the moose as the snow was coming down hard, and they are very tall animals. If the moose had left before I got the door open I would have sworn it was two people to this day. Sometimes the brain lies! As for the description of that "animal" that was sighted, a moose could be a possibility due to the "giant size" of the animal in question. Any game farms in the area, small zoos, etc? |

It is a easy question. I don't believe in bigfoot because at 04:30am, walking to the deer stand with a bow, arrows, and knife, I don't want to believe in it. But, if there was such a beast, I think it would be a giant prosimian with advanced E&E skillz.  |

no way a sustainable population of giant hominids could live in North America without being found and with better evidence than wild stories, plaster cast footprints of dubious veracity, a few unverified "mystery hairs", and a couple of bad vids. Odd that a handful of people claim to see these mystery beasts every other day but they can't seem to take one good series of photos or ever produce credible evidence for biologists or anthropologists. They all have stories, but can never back them up. It's utterly bogus, just like little space friends (unless bigfeet are in fact highly technological aliens that can remove all verifiable traces of themselves... whoa, they're chewbacca!). Damn dude......you may just have explained the phenomenon of both Bigfoot and flying saucers......It's Bigfoot piloting the UFO's. They come down for a visit, look around a bit, anally probe an occasional redneck hillbilly, give him some Chiclets and then climb back into their FTL space ship and book it back to West Wookiestan.

Get it?[/div] No, you see I allready know that fish exist, all you would shown is 1, you can catch fish, a skill which can actually serve you, and 2 that that pond had at least 1 fish in it. nothing scientific was proven..... And how did you know that fish exist? Because I shocked the pond and told him. Try and understand if you find X it no proof of Y. No proof one way or the other. It may exist, it may not. People here are trying to argue that Y definitely does not exist, and that is bad logic. |

Quoted: Quoted: Where are the bigfoot fossils? Gigantopithecus http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0d/Gigantopithecus_blacki.JPG/180px-Gigantopithecus_blacki.JPG not a bigfoot fossil. Only bigfoot romantics say it is because they want it to be. |

Quoted: If its true lets see the law thats currently on the books. Not a proposed law, not an expired one. A current passed law.Quoted: Quoted: It's illegal to shoot Bigfoot in the state of Washington. No its not. This is true, only in one county. I will not guide you in that county unless you pay extra. Of course that is where they all are. |

Quoted:
You don't find "Bigfoot" bodies because like most transdimensional beings, they dematerialize upon "death" (assuming what happens to them is similar to death in a way we understand)... you mean like Yoda?

Quoted:
To play devils advocate, you do know that there are species being discovered all the time that were thought to be extinct for thousands if not hundreds of thousands of years, and some right under our noses. I understand alot of folks dismiss the whole Bigfoot thing simply because "nobody has killed one" but do we actually know that? Just sayin' "Has anyone seen one? Has anyone seen one in a hundred years?" "They say they used to be all over the countryside, and worse farther north." "People say many things." |

a breeding population of 900 lb hominids would leave quite an ecological dent, and a quite detectable one
I won't even get into how ridiculous the notion of non-corporeal boogeyman-spirit 900 lb hominids is.... |
