Those two are either mentally unstable or unmitigated liars. My bet is on the second.

That's gotta be a spoof. If not, it's hard to believe ProBigfooters™ want those guys being the spokesmen for anything within the Bigfoot Hoaxdustrial Complex™. At least Loren Coleman can actually communicate.

"Yeah, we were gonna donate money to your cause until those guys showed up. Now we're thinkin' you need to donate money to us."
 
Bigfooters cite articles like this:
NEW APE SPECIES DISCOVERED
http://www.cryptomundo.com/cryptozoo-news/new-ape/

as evidence that the hunt for Bigfoot is a legitimate endeavor.

However, I maintain that such articles simply show how silly the idea, that there is a GIANT HAIRY MAN-BEAST IN SEMI-RURAL North America, really is. Science can locate a species numbering 100 specimens, in the dense jungles of SE Asia, but it can't get a bead on the Man-beast? Not a trace of him.

how many in the US believe in a bigfoot? I would put the number at many millions.

The BFF ("the most popular BF forum") has only 539 members of which many are non-believers and some others are just sockpuppets. If many millions believe in Bigfoot - why are so very few registered and talking about it on the web?
 
Yeah, but things are different over here, we're civilized and we have technology.

Our Bigfoots travel around in UFOs and can disappear on whim. They can even avoid trail cams, they have super special knowledge and skills cause they're living in the most technologically advanced country on the planet. Comparing them to some primitive species in SE Asia just isn't logical.

Or something like that.
 
well, you'd have to ask the millions.
I think that there are many boards and forums and clubs and organizations and covens out there. If you google bigfoot, basically all you find are these enthusiast sites with all their disinformation. But I imagine many just "believe", and go on with their lives and never get into trying to find or prove anything, or feel a need to join the social groups.

Do you think 500 is closer to the number than "millions?" discuss.

one believer wrote that bigfoot avoids trailcams because they can read and they found a package insert that described the function. I couldn't tell whether or not he was serious, so I didn't respond.
Hi, Tim.

The discovery is exciting, no question.

Yet the essential distinction between this "discovery" (read: new classification) and the search for bigfoot is that the gibbon family, Hylobatidae, is already known, studied and classified. The four genera of gibbons and their diploid chromosomal numbers-- Hylobates (44), Hoolock (38), Nomascus (52), and Symphalangus (50) -- are already known, studied, and documented with type specimens.

The new species, Nomascus annamensis, belongs to a genus already known to exist in the area (SE Asia), and which includes at least 11 species and sub-species, all of which have been documented and classified for years, and for which numerous type specimens already exist.

In short, this is a new taxonomic ascription to an animal already known and studied. Its is not an entirely new species never before seen or documented by primatologists.
 
hmmm, anybody got the skinny on the disappeared "Discovery Channel"/ kitakaze thread? a complaint by the true believers? inquiring minds want to know.

I think people do not tell the truth about believing in Bigfoot in the same way that they fabricate Bigfoot encounter stories. Both falsehoods are features of the folk tradition of "Bigfootery". My opinion is that the polls are skewed by people saying they believe who actually do not. My opinion is that less than 100,000 people in the USA genuinely believe that Bigfoot exists. I think that it really is a fringe belief with a small subculture of believers. The "following" (enthusiastic popularity) of Bigfoot is larger than the number of true believers.
 
Hi Parnassus, not Tim, but rather Sonny from the BFF. The plain-old Sonny name was taken, so had to register as Sonny2.

They are mentally unstable. If you watch the documentary "not your typical Bigfoot movie" you can see it explained better. You also get to see that slime ball Tom Biscardi take advantage of the poor guys and treat them very badly. During the film Wayne was living in poverty in a shack with no running water. Wayne has tried to commit suicide( you can see the scars on his wrists). Dallas is just plain delusional and used to send me weekly e-mail blobsquatch pics of all the Bigfoot he sees. To be clear, they are not hoaxers, they have issues and I feel sorry for them.
