is a sasquatch a preditor?

Last year I was out calling for black panthers and had bigfoot following me on the back of a unicorn!!! Scared the crap out of me!!
And you dont want to hear about my run in with a leprecon later that day.

I got scared just reading how scared you were Jamie. Please be extra careful out there buddy! Would hate to read you were gored by a leprecon!
 
Let's see who I can irritate with some of this.
Hopefully the moderators will give me a little leeway
on some of this.

Some of the responses from the naysayers are humorous.
Some are pretty childish.
Some just feel the need to mock others who don't share
their same beliefs.

I especially enjoy the "I've never seen one therefore it
doesn't exist" type of responses.
Right behind that are the "Where are the remains or bones".

I've spent a lot of time out in the woods and wilds. Never
once have I come across human remains or skeletons and
there are billions of people on this planet.

Folk lore and legends are usually based on fact.
American Indians have been drawing Sasquatch for years.
Same for people in the Himalayas and other parts of the
world. Why would they do that ?

New species of animals and plants are found all the time.
They've existed but not been seen or found. Why is that ?

Can you naysayers prove Sasquatch doesn't exist ?
Think hard about it before responding.

I know there are a few gents here who claim to be preachers.
I'd really like to hear from them also.
 
This subject is more fun without the leprecons and unicorn
statements. keep your comments ,like those to yourself.
it reminds me of the people that were sure the earth was flat.
 
I have said for a long time, that if I ever become super wealthy (like win the lotto)that one thing I would do is try and find out for myself if bigfoot exist.I think it is possible.

Native Americans smoked peyote so that might be where they got their visions of bigfoot. Maybe if we all took a hit of peyote we all would find a bigfoot!

And for your info I had no peyote when I saw the unicorn and leprecon last year.
 
The Native American drawings are the most valid point in any argument for the existence of sasquatch in my opinion. The other pictured animals are real why wouldnt sasquatch be? What are the odds of them pulling the idea out of their bums?

YOU haven't, but lots of other OTHER people have. That's the difference as I see it. For instance, I personally have never seen a mountain lion in the wild, but LOTS of other people have and have pictures, skins, skulls, and etc to prove it.

I do think the Native stories have excellent credibility, as do some of the stories of modern day people. People are definitely seeing something. We just don't know what, yet.

"Claim" has a negative feel to it. Hopefully you didn't mean it that way. If on trial for "preaching", I think I'd be convicted (actually, I'd plead guilty). I was selected by the men of my church, then approved and ordained by an group of men from another church acc. to the qualifications set forth in 1 Tim 3 and Titus. I am in the pulpit every Sunday, am on the radio this week, Bible study on every Weds, etc.

What do you want to hear?

 
Sasquatch? ........hummmmm....?
Yes yes indeed my first wife i think was
one, and they are Predators..I could'a been
a millionaire, well now that i think about it
it wouldn't have been worth it.....

My cousin is a sasquatch nut, I don't mind we laugh
about it all the time, we all gotta believe in something.
I couldn't care less if they exist or not, but if I see
one and i have a gun on me I'm taking a shot at it anyways
i'll suffer the consis later......but I might hesitate
thinking it's my exwife and blow my million $$ opertunity.

When I was young, 8 I think Dad made me go home from the garage
it was late and pitch black, I heard what i though was a pig
well it smelled like a pig and made pig sounds, I ran back
in the garage, he made me go to the house, saying I was just
trying to stay out longer......Next day he said a pig busted
in the garage and was licking the batteries an other such
stuff in the garage....turns out our neighbor had a pig get
out and he was very hungry.....Just think if I had been
reading a bigfoot book i would'a probably swore it was a
bigfoot instead.......just a story i have, no pun intended...

I don't "claim" to be one- I think the evidence would convict me as one. I was selected by the men of my church, then approved and ordained by an group of men from another church acc. to the qualifications set forth in 1 Tim 3 and Titus.

Sorry NM_HighPlains, you aren't the preacher I was hoping to have respond.
And I don't mean to insult preachers, ministers, priests, clerics, etc.
I'll PM you my next item.

I'm back. Got distracted by some buritoes.

OK, given the existance of billions of people here, wouldn't you think more remains would be
found in the woods ? My point being, remains of animals and people tend to get scattered about
by other animals in the woods. I put a dead goat at the edge of the woods a few months ago.
Within 2 days there wasn't a bone or any other remain to be found.
 
Ok, it's time to get serious. Back to the original question.....is a sasquatch a PREDATOR?

I would have to say no. Granted, I have observed less than a half dozen of the hairy creatures, but in every instance they were grazing on greenery. Grasses, leaves and the occasional root seemed to be their preferred diet.

It seems as though I may be the only person here who has actually seen a few sasquatches. Trust me, they are NOT predators.

Can we move on to those little green men from Mars now? I've seen a few of those too. Any non believers among us?

Just depends. I have bones from steers that died 3 years ago still right where I left them. Oh, I mean they're scattered and such, but the bones are very much still there. In fact, anymore, I collect ear tags as evidence of dead because I can't remember if this steer carcass is from this year or last year.

But I'm out here on the plains. In the woods, where stuff is wet... they decompose faster. I've spent time in the Pacific NW as a biologist and it's a little different up there. Stuff does disappear a lot faster. Something as rare as "Bigfoot" presumably is certainly might not be discovered for a long time.

If you haven't seen it, the Paranormal episode here:
HERE is pretty good. I particularly like the hair analysis and the analysis of the Patterson footage. Assuming the documentary is factual, WHATEVER the hair is, remains unidentified (according to the show).

Even out here, strange things happen. Besides the cattle mutilations- which I have not personally seen, but have talked to brand inspectors who have- every year, I have sections of fence just absolutely busted down. I've had sections busted out for 3-4 posts on each side and the fence laid straight out the ground. Something hit it and hit it hard. I don't think elk because we really don't have many elk out here and elk tend to more just crush fences that they can't jump. I have found long brown hairs 24" long in the fence- like horse hair, but we don't have horses in those pastures and no one reported injured horses. I suspect Barbary sheep. We do have Barbary strays and I don't know how they go over/thru fences. The hair would match their "beards". But, I don't know for sure. All I know is something interesting and unusual happened (and they didn't clean up after themselves!!!!).



 
I just think about the old lady down the road who was
scared out of the woods last fall. I didn't think
anything could scare that woman. She didn't see anything
but rather heard an unnatural sound that she couldn't
describe and a real foul smell. She has lived in the area
all her life and has always been an avid hunter and knows
these woods and the wildlife as well as anyone.

So, what was it ? I don't know.
Have I seen one ? Nope.
Can I prove they exist ? Nope.
I also know I can't prove they don't exist.
 
NM_Highplains has taken care of my religion and preacher
dilemma quite nicely and graciously. So I won't be going
down that road after all.

Thanks NM. You probably kept me out of trouble and
making a fool of myself and I thank you for that.
