Yup, no such thing. Name one species anywhere in the world that has had as many sightings, lives close enough to mankind that they are seen crossing roads, bothering stock in your rural yard and even "looking in your windows" yet not one bit of documented physical evidence has ever been produced, until one day "it's discovered". Yes mankind has discovered mammalian species relatively recently in the history timeline, but nothing comes close to the time span and number of sightings of Sasquatch, yet not a shred of credible evidence.

Can anybody name one?

With all these sightings and interactions yet zero evidence it just isn't credible that such a species could co-exist with man in this day and age on the North American continent with the detection technology that's available.

Just because you may not be able to explain what you've seen and heard, doesn't mean it can default to a "Sasquatch" encounter.

And then there are those that argue with the "prove to me it doesn't exist" request. Well duh, it's proven everyday because existence requires proof, and there simply isn't any. Or are we counting unicorns as a new species too?

And there's also this.

Exclamation Imagine that!

Sasquatch sightings in North America go back a long ways...since the first people migrated here from Asia. Now we wonder why groups separated by vast geographical distances have similar legends.

You sit around too long with the elders and the stories run a muck.....little ears listen then throw thier twist into the mix.....some stories get written down and have a following too....weak minds gather around and listen

Sounds like a joke. but traditional "knowledge" has validity in our courts.

It was Shaquille O’niel up here for a bear hunt and had a bad case of lactose intolerance and hot wing IBS.

Default Sasquatch sighted

A couple of things you can checkout. Interesting stuff. “Clayton Mack, Sasquatch sightings”, and “How to hunt, Sasquatch sightings.”

Or Clayton's 'Grizzly Bears and White Guys ' has a lot of truth,,,

Another legendary BC guide and pioneering fellow ( Chilco Choate ) also has numerous eye witness accounts of the Big S , mock if you will ,

But something I do know for sure is , everyone on this forum believes 100% there are 6 point elk, full curl rams and 800 pound Grizzlies,,,

Yet only a sparse few on here can provide absolute proof ( actual dead critter) confirming there REALLY is such a thing,,,,

To the REST, those critters must not exist hahaha

Been said weaker minds point and laugh. Logic tells many that they want proof and the vast majority of them believe in some sort of God. Do they need tangible proof for their beliefs? There are many unexplained for lack of a better word phenomena that people experience that make them believers. So if one believes what one sees is gospel to them how can they be skeptical of another persons experience?

Lol, lonely hermits looking for attention.

The reason people beleive there are 6 point elk, full curl rams, and 800lb grizzlies is because they actually exist with plentiful proof.

There is not one single piece of evidence that supports the existence of Sasquatch. Nothing. Nada. Nichts.

A whole bunch of people not knowing what they saw, and in every case it’s either been proven not to be a Sasquatch, in most cases being a bear, but not once has there ever been a shred of dna evidence proving it was a primate in nature.

All it would take is just one hair follicle. Just one. A single turd, even. Surely all of these believers and eye witnesses could find ONE hair, ONE turd, and gain fame and fortune selling their interviews!

I know for sure if I ever saw one that was convincing I’d follow it to hell and back for proof. National Enquirer, here we come!

Equating 6 point elk, full curl rams and 800lb grizzlies with Sasquatch now are we?

Seriously, what color is the sky in your world?

Slight difference, hundreds/thousands of specimens c/w DNA existing and on record for the first 3 examples. The last one......absolutely sweet diddly.

You do see the difference right?

By the way, 6 point elk, full curl sheep and 800lb grizzlies aren't a species as such. Elk, RM bighorn sheep and grizzlies are though.

I don't need to see definitive proof of a 6 point, full curl, 800lb Sasquatch to satisfy me, any old one will do. Shouldn't be too hard to come up with that should it?

Honestly, I’m a pretty gullible guy, if there is some compelling evidence or high probability even without compelling evidence, I could be somewhat convinced in the possibility of its existence. But there has never been a stitch of proof.

I beleive there are aliens even though there is no hard evidence because the probability of there being life on other planets is 100%, and because they live on other planets it’s easy to explaine why we have no dna evidence. Perhaps Sasquatch are aliens? That would be the only logical explanation as to why there is no evidence.

I've spent years in the bush, yes years. And I can tell you they are out there.

Most of you jokers go hunting for one week a year, maybe go in a kilometer or two into the bush if you aren't too lazy to leave your truck and you say "if it was out there I would have seen in by now" ha!


These things want nothing to do with us, and that's why they are rarely encountered. I'd bet a fair amount of people on here have walked right by them and not noticed a damn thing. These things grow up and die in the bush, you really think they can't hide ?

You ever had the feeling like you were being watched but there was nothing you could see watching you?

Lol, prove it.

Some hair?

A Bone?

A body?

A bedding area?

Do they make their bed in the morning?

You come on here calling people a holes because you think you heard something that your imagination tells you is a Sasquatch......

Throughout the history of man there has never been any proof of its existence, yet we have solid concrete evidence that wooly mammoths walked the earth...

People get lost all the time and are trying to be found and are never recovered, imagine if you didn't want to be found?

A person, not an entire species. There is proof of the human species everywhere.

I’d love to believe that Sasquatch existed, but there simply is no proof. “I think I saw something”, or “I’m sure I heard a Sasquatch” just don’t cut it for me.

It’s not like there has only been one or two people who have claimed to have seen one. All across the Americas people have claimed to have seen them, they would be a prolific species if they existed.

Why is it all the video proof has been disproved? Because it’s fake.
