OBSERVED: I was in military stationed Ft.

That is one of the most depressing things I’ve ever seen.

How can you say that when we’ve got proof of his existence in footage like this?

“Did they shoot it?
If not, why not?
A Marine squad would have shot it, skinned it, eaten the good parts, flavored with Tabasco, sold the rest to some passing Doggies, swearing it was pork !, and that it had stumbled into camp and dropped dead of a heart attack, on the soul of Chesty Puller.
They would have then stretched the hide, hair side down, over the hood of a Deuce and a half and used the brain to tan it and turn it into a company trophy...

Until some captain came along and told them to get rid of it...”

Perfect! Semper Fi!

I would have shot it and sold it to the highest bidder.
Wondering how much “Bigfoots”Hide would bring on EBAY?

"It stands to reason that if there is a Sasquatch, it had a mother who bore it and a father to sire it. That would mean an extended family. Hundreds. Thousands. Yet we find nothing of skeletal remains of these huge man beasts."

By that same argument dear and raccoons are also mythical creatures- otherwise you would see their bones laying all over the place

I found a deer skeleton in the woods once. So the issue raised does have merit.

Ever been hunting or hiking or camping? You don’t find many bones in the woods unless it is a recent kill. In all the years I’ve been out in the woods, and it’s been many, I’ve only seen remains of maybe 4-5 animals.

Take a walk in the real wilderness sometime, you may find that your scientific logic isn’t what you think it is.

I’m not trying to berate you but you are making an assumption based on incorrect information.

On that note, I’ve seen things in the wilderness that to this day I cannot explain. Don’t be so quick to discount the possibility that something large might exist in the woods.

With all that being said however, I would like to see some real physical evidence beyond foot prints and pictures.

I'm generally very, very skeptical as well, but don't rule the extremely remote possibility out altogether, although I doubt Ft. Stewart, GA a likely location.

Depending on what one believes or theorizes sasquatch could be, there is evidence that homo erectus and homo neandertalis both buried their dead.

There is also the curious case of Ishi who died less than a hundred years ago...

I have to go out and pick up deer bones out of the yard all the time. Sometimes I fill and entire grocery bag. You can’t find their bones because my dogs are dragging them all to my yard.

I do have a nice collection of antlers.

I am a country bumpkin mountain boy.

I chew bark and sap offa trees and suck sugar out of tall pasture grasses.

There are deer here even in my front yard; nary a bone is found anywhere in the mountains coz the coyotes and wolf packs eat`em up, bones n` all. Only animal bones I ever found in 50 years of hunting and hiking was a carcasse of a bobcat that had fallen down into a vertical cave.

Experience is the best teacher,

not diaphanous daydreamed-up ludicrous theories from cloud 9 dwellers who never got their pinky hands grimy black in the woods.

The “where is the bones?” argument is not strong enough to disprove their existence.

Washington has an unknown number of grizzly bears – probably less than 40, yet people have only caught glimpses of them, and only one photo exist (a cell phone photo). And WA grizzly bones have never been found. With the “where are the bones doubters” the WA grizzly existence is an impossibility.

And here in Washington State we have a black bear population of over 45,000, yet I challenge anyone to go out and find me naturally killed bear bones or even cougar. You can spend every day of the year on your search and the chances of you finding them are next to nil. How much smaller would those chances be if the population was less than 300? Heck I have been on many deer hunting trips into the Cascades, where I would have a hard time proving deer exist.

Anyway, that is my take on this “bones” argument. I’m not a 100% believer in Bigfoot, but I still give the possibility a chance. There are too many credible witnesses to totally discount it.
I do however think the first and most important rule for those who have an encounter with them or evidence they leave behind is to eliminate ALL other possibilities before claiming its Bigfoot. For every one credible sounding report you can find a dozen that could have other explanations.

I spent a lot of time in the swamps in and around Stewart...

Same here.

I did see lots of gators, snakes, and wild boar, though.

And skeeters. Lots and lots of skeeters.

I’m cursed with a logical scientific mind. Animals like Sasquatch are scientifically impossible.

It is also scientifically impossible for bees to fly..............

Pretty much right on with that. I’ve been hiking, hunting, camping, and exploring areas that most people never get near for about 25 years.

I’ve been in the woods around the boundary waters, mountains in Colorado, wilds of West Virginia, Georgia, and others.
