Yeah, but motion activated cameras are relatively new to the search for Bigfoot and let's face it, there isn't a ton of money out there being spent on looking for them.
Just a few years ago a huge population of gorillas just showed up in the Congo. Of course, they had been there all along, but scientists never discovered them. New ape and primate species are still being discovered today.
All I'm saying is that there are still some very remote parts of this world and this country and that if gorillas can go undeteced I see no reason why another type of ape couldn't.
Yes, I understand. I was mostly poking fun at the "MonsterQuest" show types, which can't find anything and it is obvious from the beginning, but they milk it for everything they can. Even in cities, animals live which most would not think possible. Mostly ex-zoo animals, illegal "pets", and other animals which end up making their home in cities. They are there, but like in the wild, they avoid contact, so we never see them. The areas of Canada and Alaska I think could have almost any creature in them and even if we knew of them it wouldn't be surprising if they were very hard to find.

Oh yeah, the television shows are pointless. Just sensationalism for money, but it's television. Same crap, new decade.

I want to tag along with some cryptozoologists and sneakily bowhunt mythical beasts while they're not looking. they'd be like my guides, and help me to find where to start hunting, then bam! i'd knock over bigfoot with my compound bow, and drag him off to the taxidermist. then i'll be like "check out my trophy" to all the bigfoot fans out there. it's a double-plus, cos it still would prove bigfoot exists, plus i get to be the first one to knock one over. and with a bow, at that! Hey, AntoniusMaximus, can i tag along?!

It is my solemn and firmly held belief that the Cristeros were an entirely unjustified group of egomaniacal sociopaths and that Mexico would be a far better place today had they simply purchased Xbox360 consoles and lived out their ridiculous fantasies via an imaginary fantasy gaming realm Forget your lust for the rich man's gold/ All that you need, is in your soul/ And you can do this, oh baby, if you try/ All that I want for you my son/ Is to be satisfied All that we are is a picture in a mirror, with fancy shoes to grace our feet. All that there is, is a slow road to freedom; Heaven above and the devil beneath.

Interesting. It won't be so sneaky if you declare your intentions in front of them ;)

I'm for shooting a Bigfoot. It's not like, in the end, it's not just an animal. And it's also not as if shooting one to proove their existence wouldn't put up all sorts of really harsh laws against touching a hair on their elusive bodies. But I'm mostly for shooting one because that's probablly the only way this would ever be conclusively proved.

I'd start it off with a tomato and avocado salad, then serve it with some asparagus spears with a freshly-made garlic, mayonnaise-like sauce.
I think a good dry red would go well with it, too.
