My dog is a food motivated conniving genius.
You make a frightening point! They could leapfrog by adopting our technology and surpass us quickly.
No way they could drive a stick.
I saw a bear drive a motorcycle at the circus so no telling what they can operate.
Operators of 18 wheelers
Reading this gave me serious chills and goosebumps!
Your encounter makes me never want to go camping in the woods again. Ever Lol.
Like bears and wolves, “bigfeet” must eat their food and meat and fish raw, as the smoke from a bigfoot barbeque fire or campfire would be seen for miles i think.
It’s unlikely to see this sight:
This first one shows the context. Sorry it’s a bad picture with my iphone7 and a rainy night tonight.
There is a large hill or small mountain I live on, if you want to call it, as part of the rolling appalachians here in central PA ending about 200 feet higher up before I loop around and head back.
This is along the way!! I swear that’s not my house - I would be honestly proud of it if it was, I live in a shifty apartment!
I absolutely love it! Thank you so much for sharing!
They surely must eat their meat raw because, as you stated, ppl don’t smell fires.
Ironically, supposedly they (probably their young) are known to make faux firepits (circles of rocks) near the structures they build. Ppl think it may be them “playing human” and mimicking our rock encircled fire pits.
The picture below shows a fairly elaborate tree structure.
The link below shows some other examples. Please note that many of the pictures show tree bends instead of structures. Tree bends are viewed as something different. It is hypothesized that tree bends may be territorial markers, guide posts, etc. No one is certain of the “why” behind this behavior.
Please note that I don’t think all tree structures or tree bends are valid. Some must be from hoaxers or kids playing. Some are just anomalies in the way trees fall. Others are surely ice and wind breaks. However, some structures and obvious tree bends are found in very deep forests where few ppl would go. I am more comfortable with thinking they may be valid. Some are made of huge logs that humans would have great difficulty maneuvering. These trees are often inverted with the roots facing skyward. Why would human hoaxers put so much energy into making fairly elaborate structures in deep woods where other humans are highly unlikely to go?
In some structures the leaves and limbs are obviously woven together. I realize that some birds weave their nests, so the behavior occurs naturally. Some chimpanzees will make small temporary nests in trees also. However, they don’t weave them.
Finally, ppl keep finding huge trees stuck into the ground with the roots facing skyward. It’d take a lot of humans or machinery to do this. Some think they may be territorial warning markers with their size indicating the strength of the maker. Example picture below.
not true. at least not of all of us.
I agree. I over generalized. Many humans are loving and caring. OG is a perfect example!
our nature is loving and caring, but our environment quickly knocks that out of us. some of us have a nature that is not, but i don’t know how much of that is natural and how much isn’t. and then you have the chemical imbalances and dietary things that screw things up pretty good and make so many changes that it is almost impossible to account for. but none of that is bigfoot related so i’ll stop now, not like i know what i’m talking about anyway.
This thread is so interesting. I’ve heard two sounds, that if I didn’t actually witness the animals right in front of me, I’d sht my pants. I had two rotties, Elli and Eli, litter mates. One night out of nowhere Eli sat up and let out a “howl”. It wasn’t a smooth howl like you hear on nature shows etc…it was this insane gutteral, deep sound; and it didn’t taper off, he just stopped abrupt. If he weren’t right in front of me, I’d never believe it was a dog.
Another time in Dominican Republic, I saw/heard one of my uncle’s roosters crow, but there wasn’t any “doodle do”, lol. It was more like a scream. It was unsettling as the sun was setting, and you’d hear a scream. You’d hear normal crowing, and a scream here and there. Visitors always asked what the hell it was.
One last thing, the worst smell I’ve ever smelled was also in DR. I don’t know how to describe the smell, but you catch whiffs when the wind blew, and you’d move down the hill and it’d get more intense. Finally one day, I found it. It was a baby bird (no feathers), I assume fell out of a tree, and was caught on barb wire. I’ve smelled all kinds of dead, this was the worst.
this is true in Canada but its car wrecks i think weather drunks and moose top five for sure
Actually, I love your comment. It is really a nature/nurture idea. How much of what we is is genetic versus environment? That fits right in with Bigfoot discussions.
You’re so right. Even familiar animals can make unexpected and loud sounds. Some of these could easily be mistaken for cryptids.
That’s scary. Grew up around white tailed deer
Biggest one of them is like a baby moose, yet the cause a lot of car wrecks.
Read a story about a musher in the Iditarod. I moose stomped and killed his lead dog. That was the first time I realized how aggressive they can be.
I always loved that song! It was on a goofy greats album I bought from KTEL.
