Could Bigfoot really exist?

If they exist, technology will certainly help in proving them. Unlike some of the so called skeptics above, I have actually researched the issue. Those who suggest there has never been any physical evidence are laughably wrong. The evidence for them is extremely compelling and consists of Native American stories, totems, carvings, etc as would be expected if a real creature. We have had consistent reports of foot tracks going back hundreds of years. The Patterson Film is extremely good evidence to those who have bothered to actually look at it closely. I think it is just a matter of time and maybe in the next few years it will finally be proved.

Could Bigfoot Exist

As Gray pointed out, NO they don't exist! It's very illogical when you think about it. If Bigfoot existed, wouldn't it be reasonable to conclude that these so called Bigfoot 'scientist experts' found some believable and credible evidence. If there was any kind DNA and palaeontological proof, it would make sense that they existed. Way too many people watch these investigative shows about bigfoot and UFO's and think it's real, when in fact it's not backed up by scientific testing.

Some of these researchers that claim Bigfoot exists are real scientists, but at the same time they're not using their knowledge of science to properly analyze the samples that supposedly came from this creature.

So in conclusion until these researchers, including scientists, bring solid proof to the table, Sasquatch does not exist. So the next time you hear the media or people claiming their existence, use your own critical thinking and make a decision. It would be cool though if they did exist. Take care.

No. No physical evidence for Bigfoot has ever been found. No bones, no hair, no poop, nothing. Just grainy videos of guys in ape suits running around. Scientists cite the fact that Bigfoot is alleged to live in regions unusual for a large, nonhuman primate, i.e., temperate latitudes in the northern hemisphere; all recognized nonhuman apes are found in the tropics of Africa and Asia. As with other proposed megafauna cryptids, climate and food supply issues would make such a creature's survival in reported habitats unlikely. Great apes are not found in the fossil record in the Americas.

We can track the evolution of primates going back 20 million years. There's no bigfoot.

In addition, there's something called MVP which stands for minimum viable population. There would need to be at least 1,000 of them in mating range of each other or they'd go extinct. There's no way that we're simply overlooking a population that big in a concetrated area.

There has never been a skeleton, a body, DNA ... nothing.

I really don't think so, and are you watching that finding big foot show? Cause that is one messed up show where all they get is foot prints and the odd coyote howl back... They never really adventure out wildly I mean imagine how much ground you could cover with a damn helicopter...

Doubtful.

Does God really exist, does Buddah, does Allah , if yu believe and think Bigfoot really exist then yu can believe it . There's no technical proof of God but people believe in him or her cuz of loyal faith

I think maybe that they did exist years and years ago. And the legend was passed on. But I think that something went wrong somewhere and they went extinct. So maybe they did!

Bigfoot is not real. For any species of that size to actually exist requires shelter, food, and warmth.

A community of primates has to breed to continue their existence, and the numbers necessary for species viability preclude any single small community of Sasquatch. Such a species would need to breed in order to maintain population levels and to offset the death rate from age, sickness, accidental death, and even homicide.

Such a large community would require massive amounts of food to sustain, and even if they were strictly vegetarian they would strain the resources of any given area within weeks and would be constantly on the move, foraging and gathering. Yet there is no forensic evidence of any kind of a nomadic primate tribe anywhere. Instead of finding one or two isolated “footprints” we would have come across whole trails of Sasquatch prints, and such trails would be stripped completely bare of any edibles, and would also contain piles of droppings and fur samples caught on the trees and bushes.

No such evidence has ever been found. Supposed hair samples of “unknown origin” have been long held up as “evidence”, yet I cannot find one actual report from any scientific lab about such hair samples.

As for warmth, even a Sasquatch would find it difficult to stay warm in the Pacific Northwest during the rainy seasons. Even a core temperature drop of just three to four degrees can result in hypothermia and death. This would mean that any sizeable community would invariably seek shelter of some type during inclement weather, and any member of the community that died would have one of two things happen to their corpse: one, they would be left behind where they died, or two, if the community was carnivorous the corpse would simply be eaten.

However, all stories indicate that such creatures would be vegetarian or omnivorous at best, and not aggressively carnivorous.

The reason for this is because there are no attacks. A carnivorous community would doubtless find it much easier to raid a human dwelling and carry off the inhabitants for food, especially during winter. Such behavior would be on par with bear learning that it is easier to raid villages and garbage cans than to hunt for themselves. After all, it would be much easier to attack an isolated home than to run down deer through snow.

The fact that there are absolutely no corpses found means only one thing: there are no such things as Sasquatch. We have already ruled out carnivorous disposal of deceased members, and such creatures would likely not “bury” their dead, as they could only dig with their hands and any such “grave” would be shallow at best. Such creatures would not be intelligent by any stretch of the imagination, at least not by human definitions, because even Cro-Magnon man made and used tools. Yet not one sample of a Stone Age tool has been found in the woods that isn’t an actual relic from the Stone Age, certainly nothing made in the last two hundred years that wasn’t easily identifiable as having Native American origins. No shovels, no hammers, no axes, no spears. So if they are not intelligent enough to use tools, then they are certainly not intelligent enough to completely conceal their existence or to dispose of their dead in such a manner as to preclude discovery of the corpse.

With the numbers needed to maintain genetic viability of such a community, nutritional requirements, and the need for shelter as well as forensic evidence, it is flat-out impossible that we would not have found or captured a living Sasquatch by this time, especially with the sheer number of hikers, campers, hunters, ATV enthusiasts, forest rangers, Bigfoot “hunters”, people who live in homes deep in the woods, scientists, etc. etc. etc.

There is only the flimsiest “evidence”, consisting mainly of easily faked photos and video footage, usually blurry and at a distance, and isolated “prints” again easily faked, that are never part of an actual trail. Any outdoorsman worth his salt would find it easy to track such a large creature, especially considering that in order to have survived all these millennia it would require a large community to maintain species viability.
