I wouldn't shoot one for several reasons. First of all, it might be a dude in a suit. Secondly, even if it were real, it might be more human than not and I'm sure I would feel like a murderer. Thirdly, what if you shot it but only wounded it? A wounded and pissed off bigfoot would probaby make a wounded bear or cape buffalo seem mild in comparison. And finally and maybe most importantly, what if you shot it and killed it, but it wasn't the only one? Try getting out of there alive if you shot a bigfoot's moma, daddy, kid, husband, or wife.
