Bigfoot Makes Tracks.

Tracks are not definitive proof of the existence of anything other than, "Something was there." Unless we have a frame of reference to work with,we cannot accept that any footprints are proof of anything currently existing.

However there are some facts related to the issue of tracks that cannot be ignored.  People pick up tracks with dermal ridges all over the world. This seems to indicate something somewhat human but much larger.  They all seem to have the mid-tarsal break as proposed by Dr. Jeffrey Meldrum, Department of Biological Sciences, Idaho State University.  Check out Dr. Meldrum's page, Evaluation of Alleged Sasquatch Footprints and their Inferred Functional Morphology. and  Midfoot Flexibility, Fossil Footprints, and Sasquatch Steps: New Perspectives on the Evolution of Bipedalism. See also: Sasquatch Footprints: Can Dermal Ridges be Faked?

Since a noted expert in his field is paying attention shouldn't we all be paying attention?  These tracks have been found all over the world and are similar in many ways. Some have three, four and five toes.  Due to quality, most show dermal ridges and all legitimate tracks exhibit the suggested mid-tarsal break. I have seen actual tracks before.  My own son asked me about the weird break in their step. Which I found myself explaining about the mid-tarsal break.

There are those that maintain tracks can be faked. While it is true that many tracks found can be held suspect due to the fact they can be faked.  I do not know of nor have I ever met a person in the wild faking footprints. They'd have to be carrying obvious equipment.  It seems absurd to think many can be faked.  I say that while it is possible, it is more than likely that is not the case. The tracks are made by very heavy creatures.  A     hammer applied to a wooden or fiberglass cast can  make an impression with enough pressure but it will not add depth to the track that is seen in the wild.

The many names of Bigfoot

I was researching further proof of Bigfoot, aka. Sasquatch and compiled a list of names used for Sasquatch.  The first list is from western North America. The second list is from countries Worldwide.

I am interested in the Northwest North American Names just for the facts of the story they tell with their meanings.  Take a look:
Wild Man of the Woods, Night people, Dangerous Being (likely can be dangerous).  These are all traits of Bigfoot. I am not sure about Cannibal Monster as none are reported to be cannibalistic in nature.

How about Giant? The Five Brothers refers to a legend of large hairy humanoids inhabiting certain mountains. Wild man, Wild Man of the Woods, my personal fave: Tall, hairy, smells like burnt hair, One who runs and hides. Stick Indians may refer to Sasquatch as it is popularly believed that they make habitations from sticks and trees and are also thought to leave stick structures. Devil of the forest, Evil god of the woods, Owl Woman, Spirit hidden under cover of woods, Wild Indians, The Frightener. 


I find it interesting that all these tribes have the same name for the same relative creature even if in their own mythology.  Each one  describes the creature called Bigfoot.  In addition to the Northwest Tribes of North America, there are also creatures from other countries described as being much like Bigfoot Sasquatch.


The same creatures exist on different continents according to legends across the globe. Science would have us believe that is a social phenomena related to how we believe in haunting.  I find this hard to believe since we are talking of the same creature described everywhere.   Common sense says, "That is more possible than many theories being tossed around today." Besides, I do not hunt social phenomena or myths.  I search for real creatures.


Keep in mind the lists here are incomplete and are meant to represent examples.  As promised, the entire list of Northwest North American names. Non-North America names are below the jump.
