Big Foot




Tales of large, hairy, man-like creatures (known as Bigfoot in the USA and Sasquatch in Canada) living in remote areas of the Pacific Northwest of the North American continent have been reported for many years. Eye-witnesses describe the creature as being 6½ to 8 feet tall, walking upright on two legs (bipedal), weighing 500-800 pounds and being covered in hair.

Although a few individual scientists are studying this phenomenom, the possible existence of this creature has largely been ignored by mainstream science. Most of the serious investigators are laymen, who check sightings reports and gather data, hoping to prove that Bigfoot is real.

Several thousand people have claimed encounters with Bigfoot; huge unexplained footprints have been found in the forests. Could such a creature exist in modern day, hi-tech North America?
