The working assumption is that they care for their sick and bury their dead, just as Neanderthals and early protohumans seem to have often done. Notably, extinct species have a surprising tendency to hang on and then reappear.

I once saw a Florida panther in the wild in the 1970s after the species was officially extinct and before its recovery. In that interval I was told by no less than three of the state's best official wildlife experts that it was beyond question that I was mistaken. Several hunters and trappers though told me of also seeing extinct Florida panthers in the wild.

Government opinions - the best money can buy. Why, look what they told us about Global Warming. /s

I'm pretty sure the Feds have known everything about Sasquatch for decades, but for reasons ranging from lawsuits over missing persons cases to national security considerations (if the Navy can use dolphins, what could a Marine Force Recon unit do with a Sasquatch?) they have decided we don't need to know.

There is too far much mundane, "boring" evidence and far too many sightings by rational, level-headed people. They won't be able to hide behind the ridiculing of witnesses forever.

I have been told the same thing by Kentucky wildlife experts, game wardens and National Park rangers. No, no you saw a bobcat. Right except it was three times as big as the biggest bobcat I have ever saw, it has the head of a mt. lion, not that of a bobcat, it has the brown color of a mt. lion and has the long tail of a mt. lion. I have seen it several times as well as my wife and mother-in-law, all same description, plus have found tracks in snow around the house, yet they just don’t exist according to the keepers of all animal knowledge.

As for boogers as they are called in the mountains of Kentucky, I’m open to their existence but haven’t seen definite proof. Living in the mountains and way out in the boonies I can tell you there are things in the woods that will chill you to the bone if you hear them start carrying on in the dark of night and don’t know what they are. A fox screaming, a mt. lion going on like a woman screaming, two raccoons engaged in battle or a pack of coyotes slaughtering a stray dog. However, there have been things happen around my home which I cannot explain, they match no known animal sounds or behavior in the Appalachian mountains. Yet I cannot say it is a booger, it is just unexplained and very strange.
