Tales of an unexplained hairy race of humanoids, living in the remote wilderness of the mountains, have been persistently reported across the world. Also known as the Abominable Snowman, Yeti and Sasquatch, the creature is referred to primarily as Bigfoot in North America. Evidence ranging from photographs to footprints has been captured on film for skeptics and enthusiasts alike to examine.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Things You’ll Need:

  • Video evidence of Bigfoot
  • Media playback software
  • Audio evidence of Bigfoot
  • Photographic evidence of Bigfoot

Study Evidence of Bigfoot

Step1
Wade through the mountains of Bigfoot information available on the Internet and choose a reputable source. The best sources are websites that approach the question of Bigfoot from a scientific angle, rather than sites that simply assume the phenomenon is true. The Bigfoot Field Researchers Association offers a more scientific approach (see Resources below).
Step2
Examine photographs of Bigfoot that have been taken by visitors to the mountainous regions where the creature is reputed to live. Pictures of Bigfoot tracks have allegedly been found in snow and photographed. One extensive photo gallery of Bigfoot pictures can be found at Shadowlands.net (see Resources below).
Step3
Listen to audio recordings of alleged Bigfoot encounters that claim to capture sounds made by the beast. An extensive library of Bigfoot audio clips can be found at BigfootEncounters.com (see Resources below).
Step4
Examine video evidence of Bigfoot captured on film. BigfootEncounters.com maintains a database of video clips that you can either stream in your media player or download directly onto your computer. Consider factors like the clarity of the video and the relative size of the creature appearing in it to separate hoaxes from less-easily explained evidence.
Step5
Take a trip to Bigfoot's native soil to hunt for your own evidence. The mountains of the western United States and Canada are a hotbed of Bigfoot activity. Washington, Oregon, British Columbia, Alberta and Colorado all have high rates of incidence. Sightings have also been reported in the Appalachian Mountains in the eastern U.S., as well as Alaska and Canada's Yukon and Northwest Territories.

Tips & Warnings

  • It is easy to make false claims on the Internet. You should be aware that much of the photographic evidence of Bigfoot has actually been proven to be a hoax.
