up here, unless they migrate or hibernate, (which does not fit a so called humanoid and would logically mean that some areas to our south would have a very big and noticeable population of them during winter), why did nobody i know or myself see even a track after covering every trail known to man with snowmobiles, horses and on foot for many years in areas said to be hotspots?
We saw many large Bear tracks in sugary snow conditions which many folks would not identify even though their gait and length of stride with 4 legs does not fit the supposed Bigfoot/Susquatch profile.
And as George mentioned, the cameras everywhere! The years i spent in the remote wilderness as a guide or hunter watching the ground for sign, watching large areas with powerful binoculars and scopes, showed nothing. Not to mention thousands of other guides, hunters, trappers, biologists, etc.
I lost track of the number of times my clients would misidentify the most common animals in the wild. Heck one guy i had with me on a high mountain slope swore that a Marmot he saw (Groundhog) was a small Bear
Bears were mistaken for Moose and Moose for Bears, Coyotes commonly mistaken for Wolves, on and on.
I simply do not believe they exist period!
People will point out Indian legends, not remembering that they, although from a far more progressive and civilized group of humans, were scared by "boogeyman" stories as kids themselves. Some Native tribes in America, Navajo i think, believe strongly in "shape shifters".
A case in point involving the old French Canadian "Voyageurs" of the 17-1800's in both Canada and the USA.......They had a scary legend of the "Loup Garou" which basically was what we call a Werewolf. That story was carried from Europe with them like many other "tales". Also "La vent de la mort" or wind of death which i read about as a kid, also involving the French settlers.
The "Yeti" or Abominable Snowman of the Himalayas has been their legend there since long before the Americas were settled and none documented or found but the idea was transferred here it seems.
Humans are so easy to con, heck, millions of people really believe that the world of wild animals conforms to Disney's ridiculous fables. I still cheer for Wiley E Coyote and have waited patiently for about 50 years for him to eat them smartazz Roadrunners as nature intended, especially the tender juicy kids
