"It's the same way great apes with their thick upper necks have to move when looking back in mid stride." But is this footage the only "evidence" supporting the existence of Bigfoot? One would rightly think not, especially with so many qualified and credentiated individuals continuing their investigations, some who have done so for over thirty years. As the BFRO explains: "There is quite a bit of physical evidence. Tracks, hairs, scats and tree damage are all "physical evidence." People tend to misuse that term (physical evidence) when they really mean physical remains. The assertion that there is absolutely no physical evidence is absolutely false. There is more physical evidence than most people realize. Physical evidence is found every month in various areas across the country. Distinct tracks that do not match each other but no known wild animals, and large scats that could not be made by any known species, are all physical evidence." In spite of all the information presented in this article, the greatest obstacle that the BFRO and similar research organizations have to overcome, is the misperception the general public has of this subject, mostly as a result of the disinformation and ridicule perpetuated by tabloid commercialism. According to the BFRO, "Some of the reports that come in can be honest misinterpretations. Honest people make honest mistakes. If we believe that the person saw something attributed to natural wildlife, etc,. we try to explain this to the persons what they could have seen."

Check out the BFRO website, www.bfro.net for a comrehensive database of authentic sightings of Bigfoot/Sasquatches, related reports, and a large selection of old newspaper clippings reporting back to 1800's. The data base is maintained by the network of Bigfoot researchers, archivists, and investigators in the United States and Canada. If you have an authentic sighting incident to report, or any old news clippings you can mail to them or go to their website to report it. You can also check out Ron Schaffner's own website, Creature Chronicles-Independent Information and wildlife phenomena at http://home.fuse.net/rschaffner/ Bfro is always looking for sponsors and funding. The only way to really discover a specimen or real hard evidence is to be able to hire investigators full time to stay in the forests for a month or two.
