SASQUATCH














This site is dedicated to education on information of Bigfoot. There will soon be more improvements, pictures sound clips, research, and more. Here are some descriptions of the animal and some general knowledge of them.

So we're starting to get some new members on the sight and a good healthy range from respectfull non-believers to believers. If your just checking out the sight for the first time join us and become a member of our growing commuunity. Thank you from our team. New to the site is our maps (under sightings) where u can add your sightings, also a chatroom.

This page basically describes Bigfoot, but due to the fact that this is still a young site, there is more information still to come, which will be put on soon. The other pages on the site have been updated recently, one page that you should visit is the links page which has many links to major bigfoot websites, articles, and sound recordings. sorry for the construction but the sight is growing and will be finished as soon as possible.

BIGFOOT INFO:

Bigfoot is a very large, bulky, hairy, bipedal primate. It is a massive animal with a gait that’s different from a humans. Bigfoot is a humanlike creature that is most commonly sighted in northern California, Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia. Though they have legitimately been sighted in almost all of the continental united states and parts of Canada. Bigfoots may vary slightly in size and how they appear. This is no different than a human, we all range in sizes and shape but are all very similar. It is most commonly described as a very tall primate standing on two legs with human like qualities. They are thought to weigh over 500 pounds. They are almost completely covered in hair; the most common colors are black and brown with red tips. It has thick hair, long arms usually longer than the average human, large shoulders, and short necks. They walk upright; they walk smoothly with long strides. The footprints are usually about 16 inches long. They are mostly shy. They don’t like to make contact with humans, but are very curious.

Names of the animal: Bigfoot has had many names such as bad Indians, mountain devils, Omaha bushman, Sasquatch, yeren, yeti, Alma. The name Sasquatch or Tek-He come from northern Native American tribes and it literally means “hairy giant”. In North America they are mainly called Bigfoot, Sasquatch, skunk ape, swamp monkey (both southern United States), forest people, man of the woods, wildman, wildwoman, stick Indians, night people, woodman, and bushman. The Eastern parts of the United States refer to them as Bigfoot where as the Pacific Northwest refer to him mostly by Sasquatch. In Europe they are known as Kaptar, Biabin-Guli, Grendel, Ferla Mohir, and Benin Ilwyd. In Africa they are known as Ngoloko or kikomba. In Asia they are called Gin- Sung, Yeti, Mirygdy, Chinese Wildman, Nguol Rung. The scientific name that some scientists believe is Gigantopithecus Blacki, which is an “extinct” primate, which was known to be in Asia over 300,000 years ago. This could explain why they are in North America, as with humans the Gigantopithecus Blacki may have crossed the land bridge into Canada.

Size: Sasquatch is seen to be from 8-9 feet tall, but smaller has been observed because they may be younger or just like human’s, a shorter animal. Scientists and researchers believe that a Sasquatch with a 16-inch foot and about 8 feet tall would weigh from 650-800 pounds. This would range depending on the size of the animal. Also some reported sightings have been tall, slender, and lanky, but in others the animal was up to 4 feet wide.

Sasquatch is covered in hair. They have hair not fur. They do not molt but consistently replaces hair, as do humans. The older animals have more gray hair. The color does not change from childhood to adulthood. The hair can be glossy and clean to dirty, matted. This matted unpempt hair could be caused from age, naturally curliness, age, our immersion in water or not enough water. Females have been reported to be cleaner than the male Sasquatch. The hair length it from 3 inches to 2 feet. Longer hair covers the head, the hair is very short on the face. Males tend to have facial hair such as mustaches and beards, where as the females have very little. They have long hairs across the shoulders, long hair on the forearms, and different lengths of hair on their backs. The breasts in females are covered in hair, which is often mistaken especially in books and old literary documents. There is long hair on the buttocks of the animal and hair covers the genitalia. They also have long hair on the calves. Sasquatch hair has been seen standing up striaght when frightened, like a cat.

Body size/weight: the average height for the population is 7 foot ten inches. This was recorded from the combination of eyewitness reports and footprints. The babies grow rapidly after birth. The babies are usually carried, but young smaller Sasquatch have been seen about 3 to 4 feet tall. The animals reach maturity at 6 to 7 feet but it has been reliably record to be up to 10 feet tall. Males are generally taller than the females, but usually only about a foot of a difference. Weight is very hard to estimate but it thought to be an average of 650 pounds but can reach 1,000 pounds if the footprint is 24” or larger. The Sasquatch in the Patterson video is thought to be 540 pounds.

Large amounts of evidence has been found, much of this evidence cannot be proven. They have found what they think of as bedding sights, footprints and casts of them, even large twisted or broken branches made by these creatures, and hair samples, even recordings of their vocalizations. Hundreds of footprints have been found. The casts made from them are greatly respected by scientists and researchers. They can be faked but it is extremely hard to fake the footprints. Footprint casts have dermal ridges in them, which is like a fingerprint. Human’s dermal ridges are horizontal where as Bigfoot’s are vertical. Professor Grover S. Krantz a graduate of the University of Minnesota in physical anthropology and training from U.C. Berkeley is one of the leading investigators of Bigfoot. Most of his research comes from his collection of hundreds of footprint casts that he has collected. Krantz became interested in Bigfoot in 1968 when he examined the Bossburg cripple footprints. He is thought of highly by other researchers and scientists in the field. One major evidence about these footprints is the dermal ridges stated above. These prints on the casts are one of the most respected of evidence besides hair.

Mostly they are silent creatures like most animals. Though they make patterned and repetitive knocking sounds made with rocks and branches, which they hit against other rocks or dead trees, which is used as long distance communication or to deter other animals. Since they are more nocturnal they use vocalization more than most primates. They have an array of sounds such as whistling produced in the throat, moan, howls, hoots, grunts, extremely deep growls, roars. Rarely the will produce melodic and imitative sounds and complex vocalization that is like primitive language. They have heard sounds like a woman talking but without intelligible words. Sounds such as giggling, laughing, and crying have been heard and sometimes in response to an appropriate event.
