I was looking thru the Feb.issue of Field&Stream last night and there is an article about finding BigFoot's Ass track in a mud wallow around Mt.St.Helens <P>I'm not making this up folks! Had comments by a couple of eggheads who study these things. Also took hair samples from the area and they are primate related. There was a picture of the "track" along with an artists rendition of pose. It looked surprisingly like the picture of E4E's roo pic <P>Anybody see this article in the Feb.,2001 Field and Stream?

Yea I remember the article, hell it even made the prime time news out here. My question is what kind of sick and twisted SOB would know what Bigfoots ass looks like in the first place, let alone what kind of print it would make in the mud? Actually I must confess, I made the print.(Those who have met me can testify its not that big of a strech) I was on my way to shooterslam and got lost. I was gonna climb to the top of Mt Saint Hellens to glass for a smoke trail comeing from Mr. SS's camp fire when I slipped in the mud. Serriously,it was a pretty funny story.

Littlebit: I try to take everthing with a little humor. About 4 or 5 months ago when we had that Bear Atack thread going on over at that other site. I ran across this article. Mind you, its one of those rag articles, such as on the Globe, or Enquirer. I promised my self I wasn't going to post the link. But if you go to: <A HREF="http://www.excite.com/search/" TARGET=_blank>http://www.excite.com/search/</A> and run a search for Bear Attacks, (plural not Bear Atack). And check out the article under Black Bear Atacks Zoo Keeper. I think I could easier believe your article on Big Foot. Some of these Rags get down right outragious.<P>Phil

OK!<BR>I confess.The whole thing is a hoax!<BR>The tormenting my neighbor gig got out of hand and a reporter from the Enquirer paid me 50 bucks to put on the ape suit and leave an ass track like a dog wiping it's butt.I got tired and sat down for a bit.<BR>Littlebit you're too sharp for me and the likes of the Enquirer.<BR>However the fanged alien vampire deer(Phlebotimus Bambicus)are real,and the Globe bought my story. <BR>Cheers!<BR>E4E<P>------------------<BR>Remove the mechanical variables,and then you can only blame yourself!<BR>http://home.intekom.com/upfront/cost.htm

OK, found the asstrack maker. Appears that it lives in Michigan, has a penchant for screwing around with firearms and is known to crave real beer badger<BR> [img]http://albums.photopoint.com/j/View?u=1505453&a=11365009&p=41434849[/img] <P>------------------<BR>Keep the traditions alive, take your child hunting.....

Ahhhhh,remember when I posted about it several months ago? I'd seen the News report on a Seattle Station. You guys thought I was nuts(though I probably am).......

Hi, guys. <P>I have seen the actual ass cast!<P>Jeff Meldrum, the guy who was featured in the Feb '01 Field & Stream, is a professor at the university here in town. I've talked with him quite a bit - our oldest sons have played together on several soccer teams, and we've spent time talking on the sidelines and such. <P>He's interesting to talk with, because he's obviously not a wack job, and doesn't really have a missionary fervor to prove the existence of this creature. He actually started out to disprove its existence, and he's been patiently assembling evidence for years now, subjecting every bit of it to the most rigorous analysis possible. Some of the stuff he has is damned fascinating, like the hair samples, for example: they don't match any known species, but are closest in composition to primates. (Of course, I've pulled crap like that out of my shower drain. )<P>Do I believe in the existence of Bigfoot? <P>Nah...It's just too much of a stretch.<P>Cryptozoologists point to discoveries like the new species of deer found in Cambodia last year as lending weight to the theory that Bigfoot could exist. <P>Where that falls apart, of course, is that the locals in Cambodia probably knew of this deer's existence, and just accepted it as nothing out of the ordinary. It simply hadn't been cataloged by academics. <P>Somehow, I don't think anyone living around Bigfoot is going to accept its presence as nothing out of the ordinary. "Oh, that? That's 'Bigfoot'? Hell, we got those freakin' apemen all over the place - they're a pest. We thought everyone had 'em around."<P>Greggun<P> <P>

Folks - Sorry about the triple posting. My computer was freaking out. <BR>Greggun

greggun: Here is the story about it, from the guy who studied the butt print...He...he. Don't you believe this story, because it is not true.<P>Speaking of Bigfoot<P> Posted by Robert M Oregon<BR> February 05, 1999 at 11:19:57<P>We Northwesterners have wondered for quite some time why the Pacific Northwest is the habitat of Bigfoot. Scientific evidence has recently come to light that shows these creatures have developed their large feet as a result of an evolutionary trend due mainly to climate conditions.<P>The rainy conditions that causes a layer of mud to cover much of the terrain, it has been discovered, has caused an adaptation to occur which allows Bigfoot to walk on the surface without becoming mired ankle deep and therefore stranded in the rush of oncoming mudslides. (This is supported by evidence of sightings of the Yeti, or more commonly, the Abominable Snowman, in the Himalayas whose feet have grown to snowshoe size proportions. They are able then to scamper away from oncoming avalanches.)<P>Fossils have been found of a creature that pre-dates Bigfoot. This animal was known as Patella Rex-literally, King Kneecap. Big Knee ruled the Northwest Rainforests when the climate was even wetter, and the mud was knee deep. Again, Indian legend speaks of Big Knee with awe and reverence. Unfortunately, most records of this monster were lost in the Y1K heiroglyphics crash when the bark libraries were demolished by the now extinct Bark Bug.<P>Scientists and other explorers are excited however, by the recent discovery of two large smooth indentations nearly eight feet across found in a sample of slaty mudstone that appear to even predate Big Knee. One of the researcers was quoted as saying, "This discovery clearly indicates the effect of climate on the evolutionary trend that leads us to Bigfoot. The Pacific Northwest was even wetter in the past, and we now have proof of the existence and origin of Big Butt."<P><BR>

Littlebit,<BR>I'm allways suprised to hear about Bigfoot sightings in the Pacific Northwest. I allways figured th' boy was from Alabama, I mean, what with the wall to wall body hair and knuckle dragging gait he was pro'lly from around Tuscaloosa somewhere.<BR>Ya'll do know Alabama has a gene pool.....it just don't got no deep end.<BR>Nyuk,nyuk<BR>Dan

Ok guys, three years ago I was ELK hunting by the Hoh river close to the olympic national park boundaries, I was down by the river in just a mess of alders and swamp looking for some elk as I had seen several sets of tracks there, It was starting to get a little late and I had got a little confused as to where my actual whereabouts were, As I entered I had crossed one stream and now on my way out I somehow crossed two and was starting to become concerned as the light was failing fast, and I was up to my knees in mud and brush, I found a different stream and decided I would follow it as it would probably lead me to a road, suddenly as I was struggling to advance in this swamp I had a VERY STRANGE feeling that I was not alone, made my hair stand up on the back of my neck, and in front of me, maybe 30-40yds, hard to tell with the light , I saw a very large dusk colored something in this same swamp as Me, I remember stopping, just looking and trying to figure out what IT was, I shouldered my rifle in case it was a BEAR, I had a bear tag, but when I got my scope to my eye, nothing was there, and I couldn't see anything with my naked eye anymore, but whatever it was, was gone, and it was in the direction I was heading, needless to say, I did I quick double time turn around do say do, and backtrailed faster than I knew I could, crossed the two streams, went way the hell the other way and found a different road, when I got back to camp and shared my experiences, the boys all tried to explain it off as moss, or a bear, or shadows, poor lighting etc,,,but I tell ya what, whatever IT was, Scared my but, and you won't find me hunting in alder swamps by myself in the evening anymore,,BEARHUNTER

Guys, just to let ya know, this isn't bullcrap, what I saw, I don't know, but it has affected me,,BEARHUNTER

I remember this subject coming up on "the other board" a while back and we had a heck of a lot of fun with it, but now I'm starting to get scared! Anybody got a hug? LOLOL- Sheister

Badger,<P>That's it! That's the real BigFoot! <P>E4E, Please put your legs together and put some clothes on! Sheeesh! LOL

Bearhunter, You WOULD tell a scary story,right before I go to sleep!<P>Good thing It's breaking daylight.<BR>Good night Irene...Littlebit

I was hoping someone would call bullcrap on my story, I guess ya all know that BIGFOOT is out there wandering around the forests of the west,,,,BEARHUNTER

Maybe Shaq has been into those nasty hormones and steroids again... Did it happen to be wearing a gold tank top?

YUP

Almost a 20 year old thread. Wow.

All I know or care to say is - Anyone or anything that cares to toss stones at me, near me, in my direction and/or the direction of my camp or campfire in the dark of night at extremely rural locations, is playing a game that will not end well for them. Or it. Keep it up.,

i have this one small question > Why has someone not shot a bigfoot yet ? cause if i do see a big foot i will shoot . i wonder if it taste like chicken too ?

I haven't seen one but I've got some strange stories from around Oakridge Oregon.

There are recent strange stories about a LOT of Oregon, primarily Portland.

They’re woods groids. Apes. Nothing more, nothing less. Any armed human, even with a stout blade, never mind a firearm, should be able to dispatch one handily. Or at least defend ones self against them. They are merely over grown monkeys.

Go over to howtohunt. He has lots of videos on bigfoot. He claims several have been shot and killed.

A 9 foot tall 600 pound ape could knock your head clean off with one swipe or literally rip you limb from limb. Good luck with that knife.

This B.C. hunting guide believes there are a bunch of Bigfoots ('feets?) up in the wilderness of B.C.




L.W.

That guy tells a lot of "stories."

I don't think he's a Bull [bleep],plenty are & he's not in it for profit 99%are.Refreshing vid.

YouTube = $$$

Not in the Pacific Northwest but my dad saw one about eight or nine years ago. Saw it in the clear at about 150 yards standing about mid thigh deep in the middle of a river about thirty yards wide. It was huge but the craziest thing was when it saw him. Standing at hip deep in the middle of that river, it jumped straight up and out of the river in about three steps when it saw him. No human could possibly do that. A few days later, I put on chest waders and went out to the spot where he saw it. It was close to coming over the top of my waders and I am about 6 feet tall.

There’s a forum for humor jokes and riddles down below. Maybe this thread could be moved.....

Nice post JoeBob, thks for the ink.

Bigfoot's ass track? Look no farther than Michelle Obama's last seat.
