Bigfoot Stories/Sightings

[gimmie birdies]

One other story that I remember around the same time, at night I had to put away the chickens, and from behind a near by tree was the sound of a "oohug" almost like what an ape would grunt. I repeated the sound back and forth until I got bored and went in the house. I was not afraid, it was almost like a visit. The next day I set a big goose egg in the bush by the tree. When ever my goose would lay her egg I would set it under the bush and the next day it was always gone. But no shells.

I spoke to one ranger who worked the Ross lake area west of here, and he said if you go to the top of the lake it is really spooky, because of the bigfoot(s) that live there and no one wants to camp over night because you feel like you are being watched.

A different ranger who is retired, and he LOVES to talk, said he used to camp on horseback weeks at a time in the mountains, when I asked about the big foot up there. He got real quiet, and said..." We are not allowed to talk about big foot."

Washington also in the 70's on flyers of animals of Washington, bigfoot was listed.

I live in WA state. In 92' I was offered a job to track and interview people by Peter Byrne, of the Bigfoot Research Project, in OR. I had to turn down the job after accepting it, because my husband got a different job at the other end of the state.
The area we moved to is the largest and the least populated county in the state.
In 1997 fall hunting season Oct. I had just put my kids to bed in an upstairs bedroom. I heard a hooting and a hollering on my property. It was so loud it shook my chest. I dropped to the floor, my dog, a blue heeler, who was not afraid of a single thing, also dropped to the floor, her toenails clutching the rug, and not a peep out of her. Years later the closest sound I came to hearing that howl, was at the zoo, and a lion roared, I felt my rib cage rattle, but it was not a lion's roar I heard. At the same zoo they had howler monkies, that were not as loud as what I heard, but it was as similar as I could come up with. Also years later an article about bigfoot locally said Oct. 1997 hunters reported big foot howls. I remember the hunters and thought the big foot may had been upset about the deer hanging on racks.
A different time in the winter on our property, we found a sleeping bowl, where no people live. There was prints in the fresh snow that had a reach 1 and 1/2 stride my husband's legs and his are long. I looked in all prints and found a small hair, but touched it, IDK if they can do DNA now a days and not worry about touch. I put it in a paper envelope, but don't know if I still have it. The prints wandered to other properties, each lot 1-2 acres.

Wow, that is an amazing story @gimmie birdies! I know Washington is the state with the most sightings recorded. From some stories I've read, alot of people compare it with a lion roaring, though it sounds like a monkey. Most dogs that happen to be present seem to sense the danger that a Bigfoot may potentially present and will act abnormally like that. I think TX is the 3rd state with the most sightings, probably because of the many East TX sightings. One of the most famous is The Wild Man of the Navidad in 1843. It was so famous, someone made a movie out of it!

A lion's roar, that is exactly how my husband described the sound he heard. He said it was a guttural noise and he felt it in his chest. He said whatever it was was mad and he didn't dare move. But he was hunting so he was ready to shoot if he had too. He always referred to the sound as the MGM lion, you know the roar before the movie would start? But he says it's deeper than that

I believe in Bigfoot. I have seen ghosts (or something of that sort) too, so why wouldn’t it be real?

Yes, it seems that the police and rangers are not allowed to talk about Bigfoot sightings, I think so the public will not go bonkers. Actually, some police have had sightings before. The police who investigated the Bishop, CA campsite attack were ordered to be quiet about the attack.

Yes, many say it sounds very guttural and lion-like and I have no doubt either.

This is one of the things that mississipifarmboy mentioned along with the odor.
