History: Yeti Footprints Found in 1889
Major Laurence Austine Waddel of the Indian Army Medical Corps found large footprints in the snow of the Himalayas at 17,000 feet. He wrote:
“These were alleged to be the trail of the hairy wild men who are believed to live amongst the eternal snows, along with the mythical white lions, whose roar is reputed to be heard during storms. The belief in these creatures is universal among Tibetans.”
- From Among the Himalayas (1899) by Major Waddel.

How can u honsetly believe bigfoot is real. I think with everyone in the world looking for him when they go into the wilderness they would eventually be able to get good footage of him and be able to confirm his existence.

it’s a myth like the giant panda was a myth.We can’t know everything ppl - sasquatch/yeti are to walk theearth until the end of time.They still take instruction from the great I Am,Alpha&theomega that’s why they are undisturbed.Sure we will cross paths-but the creature will stay protected.In the end times ppl will look for miracles &mystisism.And this has been true for a long while now-Be careful of what you wish for.It would take a miracle to have the truth of this one be revealed-and shortly thereafter our Revalationary demise.

stories of sasquatch were told to american indian children to keep them from wandering to far into the woods. there are also stories of bears that have evil spirits within them

Maybe the US Forest Service has technology to locate Bigfoot, but they aren’t sharing that information with the public.

I really believe in bigfoot. I know that there is such a thing. I live in Lassen County and have seen with my own eyes. My family and I were camping and heard, then seen a 7′ or probably taller apelike creature standing upright over our camp fire (we were roasting some quail that we caught) as we were returning from gathering more firewood..my family and I were the creature just looked at us and stood there….when we finally returned to the site.our food was untouched (I think because it was over the fire) yet our tents were ransacked and our granola, fruit bars were ripped open from our backpacks. My Aunt was smart enough to preserve one of the wrappers (not touching it but using a plastic bag over her hand). She has sent it to a research team at UCLA forensic Lab..They sent her a return package to send it in…Please don’t doubt BigFoot because he/she does exsist….

OMG!!!..How can you people say that Bigfoot is a myth?…Are you friggin’ retarted?…..There is documented proof to substanciate the theory.
I voulenteered at a Lab in Reno, Nevada that has soo much proof..(hairs, teeth, even a skull). Thereis a scientist …Dr. Ravid Patel would not jepordize his credentials giving lectures if BigFoot was just a myth. My god people what is the big deal. It’s just a creature like you and I.

Listen retard…I am Native American and do NOT like to be referred to as Indian you nimrod…Anyhow where did you fathom the idea that BigFoot was just a story told to “Indian” kids as a deterrant from entering the woods. You’, are clearly a moron…Learn the facts.
We native Americans do not live in the woods you pathetic man. BTW…Yes BIGFOOT IS REAL!!
