Why Not Report It?
Around here (Happy Camp, California) people see Bigfoot but few report it. For a while, when JavaBob was in town, people would go to him and tell him about things they’d seen. He was a friendly deli owner everyone in town knew, and easy to talk to. But since he left last year there’s no central meeting place, and people aren’t talking. Why do you suppose that is? My guesses are (1) that they don’t want people to think of them as crazy; too many people, even locals, are verbally abusive toward people who say they’ve seen Bigfoot. And (2) they think they are protecting Bigfoot by not giving away the location of the one they saw. Am I missing any other important reasons here? All I’m asking for is a location to research. A new sighting here in the Klamath National Forest, or somewhere nearby, would give my partner and I a place to go look for recent footprints and other signs to verify what is reported as a Bigfoot sighting. But without a report, I’m having to rely entirely on my intuition.

Immokalee,Florida 1987 -
My family and I were in having an evening of fun when We heard a horrible noise coming from the direction of where our dog was outside.My husband went out to investigate because our dog sounded as if were scarred or being hurt.When my husband got to our shed he saw a large shadow up against the siding and it sounded as if our dog were being muffled.He ran back into our home thinking it was a bear or something to the effect and grabbed his gun. He then went back outside ( us trailing close behind him)and it appeared to him as if something were running down our driveway - in the meantime our dog was hidding underneath our home.My husband fired a couple of shots towards the area he thought this creature or animal was and we heard a very loud growl howl type noise,after that it got deathly quiet. I will never forget the chills that ran up me when I heard theses sounds.The next morning we did check the area and we did find weird type footprints that looked not like human nor were they a bear or any other type of animal that I am familar with.Whatever it was it was able to make a leap from the street and across a canal and land on it’s feet.The only thing that we can figure is that during the day we had taken our family fishing in the grove and we were followed back by what I honestly believe to be a bigfoot.Our home sat on a hill that when our porch light is on it can be seen from within the surrounding woods - we checked this - I believe it followed the lighting as it knew there was something there.We later found out that the people what occupied our home before us had an encounter with the backdoor being ripped off it’s hinges. They assumed it was a burglary while away? We now suspect not.We were told also through my husbands Supervisor that several sightings had occured not only in the area but at Lake trafford as well. Lake Trafford was less than 5 miles from where we were living at the time.I will never forget my experience with this night. I thank god my chldren were sleeping but unfortunately my younger brother was not - he was 10 at the time and I remember him being so very frightened and crying.He still remembers that night.Every since I have wanted to find proof of what we heard and to prove to myself that it was real.I am a believer!

I have seen what I think might have been some kind of big foot. I was riding home in a place in TX called The Devells Pocket.We were talking to each other when somthing caught my eye. It was about 400 yards away and even from there it looked 9 ft. tall. It had a slender body long arms and legs. But get this it looked RED! I only saw it for a breaf moment. Because somhow it ran across a 13 foot road and a 13foot ditch and into the woods in only 2 secs. That suprised me how it moved so fast. I did not know that it might have been native in Southeast TX. I saw it in Buna,TX on hiway 253. This is a true story. So happy hunting.

I saw Bigfoot in 1962 on McIntyre Mountain in Lycoming County PA while hiking with a friend. We heard something running towards us, when it can in view, it was tall, hairy and brown, and on two feet. Terrified, we ran all the way home. We tried to figure out what it might have been. There are black bear that are brown but they don’t run on two feet. We thought it may be someone trying to scare us, but the dog was also terrified and ran with us. If it had been a person, it think the dog would have attacked.

On a hunting trip me and my hunting partner watched bigfoot for around 45 minutes to an hour. He was on top of the ridge that we intended to walk up to. After a few minutes he walked down the hill right towards us. At first we thought it was another hunter, but were puzzled by the fact he had no rifle or flashlight, and was dressed completely in black.
Once he got close enough for us to really see what was coming at us, we both realized at the same moment he wasnt a man, but a huge fur covered thing. I bumped the inside of the truck door with my rifle, and he saw us and ran like the wind. He got between me and a big ponderosa pine and I never saw him again. I walked to where I last saw him, and found some prints and began to follow them. As I walked up the hill I stopped to find the next track because the tracks were unusually far apart. As I stood there I noticed that the top of the brush was 2 feet above my head, and when bigfoot was standing next to the brush it only came to mid chest level to him. That is when I decided to turn around and go back to the truck. He disappeared so fast, and the size of the brush compared to him and me…..well he was BIG and I didnt want to make him mad . I can tell you I didnt sleep well for the rest of the hunt at all.

I may have seen something a few years ago. I was in fifth grade and did not believe in Bigfoot. I heard crashing in teh brush behind me when I was in the woods. I turned around and saw a large humanoid shape coming towards me. Of course, I panicked and ran. I could not see it clearly because the sun was in my eyes and there were many leaves obscuring it. I have believed ever since.
P.S. There have also been a few other reports in te neighborhood.

I used to sit on my front steps and wonder about a siren type sound coming from the woods. Then I went camping in West Branch park and heard the same sounds from deep in the woods. Later I noticed there was no forest sounds at all; no bugs no frogs, nothing. When I got interested in bigfoot I listened to the Ohio howls and recognized it as the same sounds I’ve heard coming from the woods.Also, a friend who lives in the direction of where the sounds came from told me something growled/roared at him when he was burning the plastic coating off of wire and letting the fumes drift into the woods. That was a few years ago and he still refuses to burn anything at the back of the yard. Last summer he found feces in his yard. He says they were very big and had berries in it.
