00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:04.040
And opinions. Good evening, folks, I'm sewn the fort chop forger.

00:00:04.080 --> 00:00:09.199
We're going live Sasquatch Experience. Here
we go. The views and opinions expressed

5
00:00:18.839 --> 00:00:31.039

something growing around out here? Does a

6
00:00:31.120 --> 00:00:39.159
legend walk among us working in the
forests of our world? Did you see

7
00:00:39.159 --> 00:00:42.880
what it was? Was it a
person or an animal? Or I can't

8
00:00:42.960 --> 00:00:45.439
go? Oh, I know it's
that my thunder light came on and I

9
00:00:45.520 --> 00:00:49.000
did that with to glen and see
this thing running across the yard a good

10
00:00:49.039 --> 00:00:51.840
fight man or nothing. It looks
like a man. I don't know what

11
00:00:51.880 --> 00:00:59.000
it was. For over fifteen years, we've talked with scientists, researchers,

12
00:00:59.039 --> 00:01:04.239
investigators, and witnesses trying to gain
insight and truth around the existence of this

13
00:01:04.359 --> 00:01:15.840
mysterious entity. Hello, get somebody
out here. What's going to announce there

14
00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:19.840
that's got a mention about I don't
know, easy announce Yes, I'm working

15
00:01:19.920 --> 00:01:26.480
right over, okay, hand on
her? Yeah, got you bigger.

16
00:01:26.879 --> 00:01:38.159
Okay, what's he doing in your
yard? We're gonna mar you join us

17
00:01:38.159 --> 00:02:04.319
as we continue into the investigation of
the Sasquatch Experience. Well, here we

18
00:02:04.359 --> 00:02:07.400
are, it's Monday night. It's
that time of the week again, Sasquatch

19
00:02:07.479 --> 00:02:13.039
Experience in Baker's squeaky chair. He's
James Baker. That's vance Nesbit, Henri

20
00:02:13.159 --> 00:02:17.840
May and our guests tonight from Bigfootsouth
dot com. The author of Bigfoot South,

21
00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:22.159
mister Chester Moore. Chester, thanks
for joining us tonight here in the

22
00:02:22.159 --> 00:02:25.240
show. Thanks for having me on. I appreciate it. Folks. Chester's

23
00:02:25.280 --> 00:02:29.319
not new to the bigfoot field.
He's been around for a long time,

24
00:02:29.680 --> 00:02:34.039
just like myself. We started off
as younger men with a little less gray

25
00:02:34.080 --> 00:02:38.159
and a little less facial hair.
But Chester's taken it to actually get into

26
00:02:38.199 --> 00:02:43.840
wildlife journalism and really made a career
out of all this. Aside from the

27
00:02:43.879 --> 00:02:46.840
cryptozoology part, Chester, You've really
turned this into a quite an adventure for

28
00:02:46.879 --> 00:02:51.599
yourself. Yeah. I started doing
this when I was nineteen. The wildlife

29
00:02:51.680 --> 00:02:57.479
journalism part meaning writing for back then
newspapers, but magazines, books, radio

30
00:02:57.560 --> 00:03:00.800
shows, podcast and doing lectures all
around the nation in the world. I

31
00:03:00.840 --> 00:03:06.479
love wildlife, fishing and hunting and
conservation, and the Bigfoot thing fits in

32
00:03:06.479 --> 00:03:09.280
the middle of that because it involves
the mysterious. And as a journalist,

33
00:03:09.360 --> 00:03:12.639
I mean that's kind of what we
like to do, is chase stories,

34
00:03:12.680 --> 00:03:15.639
and this is a pretty big one. Yeah. It's a pervasive story,

35
00:03:15.680 --> 00:03:20.479
that's for sure, one that has
not been solved, regardless of how many

36
00:03:20.520 --> 00:03:23.800
people say it's a hoax or it
doesn't exist chester, they just can't.

37
00:03:23.439 --> 00:03:28.360
As much as we can't prove it, they can't disprove it either. Yeah.

38
00:03:28.360 --> 00:03:30.800
I think that's the thing. I
heard it said one time that all

39
00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:35.439
it takes is one siding to be
real, one account to be real,

40
00:03:35.520 --> 00:03:38.199
for this to be a real phenomenon. And I'll always try to keep that

41
00:03:38.319 --> 00:03:42.120
in the back of my mind when
I listen to people tell them their stories,

42
00:03:42.159 --> 00:03:46.280
and you know, in your researching, I think it's just one that

43
00:03:46.439 --> 00:03:49.520
was real. This is still the
biggest wildlife story in the history of the

44
00:03:49.520 --> 00:03:53.719
world. Yeah, I think that's
a John Green quote. It probably is.

45
00:03:53.759 --> 00:03:57.120
I've read everything he ever wrote.
I mean, Sasqua Stads among Us

46
00:03:57.240 --> 00:04:00.919
is my is my basic guide to
the big Foot world. Still to this

47
00:04:00.039 --> 00:04:03.319
day, so well, it's the
book that got me hooked. I was

48
00:04:03.439 --> 00:04:08.159
nine when I read that book,
Chester, and it created a It just

49
00:04:08.319 --> 00:04:10.639
it put me in that space that, man, this is something I really

50
00:04:10.719 --> 00:04:13.719
need to pursue because you know,
as you even state in your book,

51
00:04:15.400 --> 00:04:17.439
at that point in time, we
just thought this was something that you know,

52
00:04:17.519 --> 00:04:21.480
existed in the Pacific Northwest, right. It didn't. It wasn't a

53
00:04:21.560 --> 00:04:26.720
nationwide or worldwide phenomena. The information
wasn't out there like it is today.

54
00:04:27.480 --> 00:04:31.040
And until I read his book and
I read the chapter Eastern Action and realized

55
00:04:31.040 --> 00:04:35.120
that settings were happening in my home
state of Pennsylvania, that really kind of

56
00:04:35.519 --> 00:04:39.959
wet the appetite for me to really
get going. So I started my field

57
00:04:39.959 --> 00:04:44.319
where, you know, research early
back when the Internet was in its infancy,

58
00:04:44.519 --> 00:04:47.759
there was the virtual Internet, Bigfoot
Conference, right, and places you

59
00:04:47.759 --> 00:04:51.519
could connect I guess a little bit
maybe not as safe as the Internet today.

60
00:04:53.120 --> 00:04:55.279
I don't want to say that,
but it was a different time.

61
00:04:55.920 --> 00:04:59.319
But the information just wasn't there like
it is today. And that's really changed.

62
00:05:00.360 --> 00:05:04.040
Yeah, for sure. The information
thing has gone into hyperspace. And

63
00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:09.600
I remember just thinking that, you
know, even like Grover Krantz when and

64
00:05:09.639 --> 00:05:13.759
I talk about this in my population
Dynamic chapter in Bigfoot South, he gave

65
00:05:13.800 --> 00:05:19.160
bigfoot population estimate by acreage and he
only mentioned you know, Oregon, California,

66
00:05:19.199 --> 00:05:23.600
Washington, and British Columbia. You
know, he mentioned the Pacific Northwest.

67
00:05:23.680 --> 00:05:27.759
And so when you think about that, you have guys who are like

68
00:05:27.800 --> 00:05:30.639
the you know, the apex guy
at the time. But for me,

69
00:05:30.759 --> 00:05:33.279
it was the legend of Boggy Creek
that turned me on to the idea.

70
00:05:33.360 --> 00:05:36.319
Because I'm a pretty smart little kid, and I'm looking at a map in

71
00:05:36.399 --> 00:05:42.240
falc Arkansas's round that corner of Texas
Louisiana, Arkansas, and I'm like,

72
00:05:42.319 --> 00:05:46.279
hey, if that thing's a bigfoot, why wouldn't there be one over here

73
00:05:46.279 --> 00:05:47.879
in the lone Star state. So
it always had it at the back of

74
00:05:47.920 --> 00:05:50.399
my mind they might be here,
But it took a while. It just

75
00:05:50.439 --> 00:05:56.120
seemed that Bigfoot was there and they
couldn't be here. If it was here,

76
00:05:56.160 --> 00:05:58.240
it might be something else. I
mean, that was kind of the

77
00:05:58.879 --> 00:06:02.600
early thought process, right, I
mean, it was kind of evolved into

78
00:06:02.600 --> 00:06:05.199
its own creature. You have the
skunk ape in Florida, right, was

79
00:06:05.240 --> 00:06:09.480
it a derivative of that and yeah, and I mean in your book also

80
00:06:09.519 --> 00:06:14.439
you have a chapter dedicated to Faro
apes Phara the primate population, which Baker,

81
00:06:14.920 --> 00:06:17.160
that's kind of what you've based a
lot of your sasquatch theory on.

82
00:06:17.319 --> 00:06:20.680
Right, so you address it is
a good book, folks, Bigfoot South

83
00:06:20.720 --> 00:06:24.040
dot com. You can pick up
a copy. I got mine a couple

84
00:06:24.040 --> 00:06:28.240
of weeks ago. It's a good
read. It's not volume miss, it's

85
00:06:28.279 --> 00:06:32.439
the perfect length chester for for the
for the reader. That's and I think

86
00:06:32.480 --> 00:06:35.879
that's important too. We can't all
be John Green's right and write and I

87
00:06:35.920 --> 00:06:40.319
don't want to be. I think
about poor John Green writing that book with

88
00:06:40.480 --> 00:06:44.360
the internet, all of the the
all the interviews, he had to either

89
00:06:44.439 --> 00:06:48.959
call someone or go to their house. And so my thing is to give

90
00:06:49.000 --> 00:06:53.800
it indigestible form that it's going to
entertain people and be fun to read.

91
00:06:54.240 --> 00:06:57.680
It's going to have a message of
you know, so maybe some unique things

92
00:06:57.720 --> 00:07:00.079
that a lot of people aren't talking
about, and then all so tie it

93
00:07:00.120 --> 00:07:03.360
into the love of nature that we
have, you know. So that was

94
00:07:03.439 --> 00:07:06.360
kind of my theory on doing the
book. So jes you, God,

95
00:07:06.399 --> 00:07:11.720
Sasquatch saved some among us? Was
there a personal encounter of yours that sparked

96
00:07:11.720 --> 00:07:15.959
your interest in sasquatch. Yeah,
you know, like I got into it

97
00:07:15.959 --> 00:07:18.120
and I was real little. I
mean, I'm fifty. So this was

98
00:07:18.120 --> 00:07:24.000
in the era of you know,
Sid and Mardy Croft, Bigfoot and wild

99
00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:29.000
Boy. This was in the era
of the Patterson Gimlin image being everywhere,

100
00:07:29.680 --> 00:07:31.519
and then the legend of Balky Creek. And my dad had a copy of

101
00:07:31.560 --> 00:07:35.639
the Argusy magazine that had the Patterson
Gimwin you know, picture on the cover

102
00:07:35.959 --> 00:07:41.279
and the whole expos on it.
And I remember seeing that and then the

103
00:07:41.360 --> 00:07:44.600
legend of Balgie Creek, and I
was so into it. But I had

104
00:07:44.600 --> 00:07:47.519
an encounter. That's it's the very
first part of the book that I didn't

105
00:07:47.600 --> 00:07:51.920
realize was most likely a big foot
creature until years later. But I'll connect

106
00:07:51.920 --> 00:07:56.519
to the dots for me. When
me and my dad were rabbit hunting and

107
00:07:56.600 --> 00:07:59.639
my aunt's property, it's legal to
hunt rabbits a night with little headlamp and

108
00:07:59.720 --> 00:08:01.319
texts, and we were down on
this creek bottom. I had my little

109
00:08:01.360 --> 00:08:05.920
seers in a single shot four ten
and Dad had a twelve gage. My

110
00:08:05.959 --> 00:08:07.759
aunt and uncle were walking on the
other side of the property. We would

111
00:08:07.839 --> 00:08:11.920
hunt and just split the property and
meet down on this creek bottom and kind

112
00:08:11.920 --> 00:08:16.480
of covered the whole property. And
this thing was letting out this sound that

113
00:08:16.879 --> 00:08:20.120
was unlike anything mean I you know, it was like ten or eleven.

114
00:08:20.040 --> 00:08:22.720
I never heard anything like that in
the water actually on television. It was

115
00:08:22.759 --> 00:08:26.319
bizarre. And I was like,
Dad, what is that? And I

116
00:08:26.399 --> 00:08:30.639
noticed everybody around me, who were
adults with bigger caliber weapons, were nervous.

117
00:08:31.240 --> 00:08:33.320
And that must be when the Uncle
Bill's bulls hung up in the fence.

118
00:08:33.840 --> 00:08:35.279
And I'm like, well, why
don't we go help it out?

119
00:08:35.840 --> 00:08:39.360
Now? We better get out of
here, you know. And this thing

120
00:08:39.440 --> 00:08:41.799
was going nuts. It was vile
sound, you know. So I kept

121
00:08:41.840 --> 00:08:43.879
bugging my dad and bugging my dad. He goes, well, you know,

122
00:08:43.960 --> 00:08:48.200
it might be a bear, because
bears the time were extirpated from this

123
00:08:48.240 --> 00:08:52.960
part of Texas, but Louisiana had
a remnant population on the border. I

124
00:08:52.039 --> 00:08:56.080
bought that until I was twenty years
old and started working with captive bears.

125
00:08:56.399 --> 00:09:00.279
Didn't sound remotely like a bear,
so I can I don't remember a lot

126
00:09:00.320 --> 00:09:03.279
of dates. If I remember August
the twentieth of two thousand and me and

127
00:09:03.320 --> 00:09:07.559
my dad and I got named Bobby
Hamilton, who founded the Gulf Coast Bigfoot

128
00:09:07.600 --> 00:09:11.080
Research Organization. I went with him
on an investigation and we checked out this

129
00:09:11.279 --> 00:09:16.600
place near Livingston, Texas, and
not a whole lot happened. We were

130
00:09:16.639 --> 00:09:20.559
sitting around a campfire basically listening with
you know, devices, listening that night,

131
00:09:20.080 --> 00:09:24.600
and we heard this really weird thing, a moan, really scary moan,

132
00:09:24.679 --> 00:09:28.320
actually, at about ten o'clock over
here, and then about midnight the

133
00:09:28.399 --> 00:09:31.240
moan is right here, and then
about two o'clock in the morning, it's

134
00:09:31.240 --> 00:09:33.120
over here, same kind of sound, but it was one of those things

135
00:09:33.120 --> 00:09:37.480
you like, I don't know,
it was kind of far off. Me

136
00:09:37.519 --> 00:09:39.279
and Dad had two hours to drive
home, Bobby an hour four o'clock.

137
00:09:39.279 --> 00:09:43.879
And when we're done and we get
pack all our crap in the truck,

138
00:09:43.960 --> 00:09:48.519
and the same sound me and dad
heard at my aunt's property came out of

139
00:09:48.559 --> 00:09:52.080
the bushes. And my dad looked, turns around and looks at me with

140
00:09:52.080 --> 00:09:56.080
his eyes like this and goes,
that's what we heard at Anne's property when

141
00:09:56.080 --> 00:10:01.200
you were little. And it went
crazy. And I had just been in

142
00:10:01.320 --> 00:10:05.279
Venezuela like eight months earlier, fishing
for peacock bass on a journalistic expedition and

143
00:10:05.960 --> 00:10:09.399
I had messed with a holler monkey. This was a very haller monkey esque

144
00:10:09.399 --> 00:10:15.399
sound, and this thing let out
whatever reason, I decided that this haler

145
00:10:15.399 --> 00:10:16.679
monkey was getting my nerves. It
wouldn't shut up, so I growled at

146
00:10:16.720 --> 00:10:20.879
it. I did one growl and
it started. It did one growl.

147
00:10:20.919 --> 00:10:22.919
I did two. It did too
well. This thing did the same exact

148
00:10:22.960 --> 00:10:26.759
thing I did one. It did
one. I did two. It did

149
00:10:26.759 --> 00:10:31.360
two, but on the second one
another one called out behind it grunt.

150
00:10:31.399 --> 00:10:33.159
So there were two animals. There
were two whatever these things were there.

151
00:10:33.799 --> 00:10:37.399
And then on the third it built
itself into a frenzy, and I mean

152
00:10:37.480 --> 00:10:43.639
a guttural, deep frenzy, and
at the very end was a long yell,

153
00:10:43.840 --> 00:10:46.080
and the yell had a growl but
like a scream in the middle of

154
00:10:46.120 --> 00:10:50.519
it. It was like both at
the same time and the closest thing I've

155
00:10:50.519 --> 00:10:54.759
ever heard to the most of the
sounds we heard that night were some of

156
00:10:54.759 --> 00:10:58.399
the Sierra sounds that Ron Moorehead recorded, not the talk stuff, but the

157
00:10:58.480 --> 00:11:05.240
guttural stuff. It gets overlooked that
sound like that, and it was intense,

158
00:11:05.440 --> 00:11:09.080
and that moment in my life.
I go, this is real,

159
00:11:09.960 --> 00:11:13.639
this is real, and I went
and spent two grand I didn't have on

160
00:11:13.799 --> 00:11:18.799
night vision the next morning. So
that was kind of what got me into

161
00:11:18.840 --> 00:11:22.200
doing the field research part of it, you know. And then then it

162
00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:28.840
was something I could not not look
at that had to be something different to

163
00:11:28.960 --> 00:11:31.840
experience sh you know, you know
the sounds that come out of the woods,

164
00:11:31.840 --> 00:11:35.399
really out of the area, and
to just be struck by a sound

165
00:11:35.440 --> 00:11:39.120
that you really can't identify, especially
with your background and you know, spending

166
00:11:39.120 --> 00:11:41.960
a great deal of your time in
the woods as a younger man. I

167
00:11:41.960 --> 00:11:45.960
guess even now as an adult,
it's still it still gets you. It

168
00:11:46.080 --> 00:11:52.519
still triggers that primal instinct of kind
of flight or fight of what's going on,

169
00:11:52.600 --> 00:11:56.200
Like I got to get to the
bottom of this, but it's scary

170
00:11:56.240 --> 00:12:01.639
as hell. It was really intense, and I'll never forget my dad going

171
00:12:01.960 --> 00:12:05.120
that's what we heard at hand.
So that connected dots through that told me

172
00:12:05.159 --> 00:12:09.840
there was a story. You know, it's two hours away from where we

173
00:12:09.919 --> 00:12:15.159
heard the other thing, but same
region, same habitat pine forest, mixed

174
00:12:15.159 --> 00:12:18.200
at hardwood bottoms, and there was
a pattern here. And then when the

175
00:12:18.279 --> 00:12:24.720
thing sounded kind of Howard monkey esque, and it responded the same way that

176
00:12:24.759 --> 00:12:30.200
a Howard Monkey did eight months earlier
in Venezuela. That told me, whatever's

177
00:12:30.279 --> 00:12:35.840
making that noise is a primate.
And so that really made me very much

178
00:12:35.879 --> 00:12:41.559
interested because a pattern had formed,
a couple of patterns had formed, and

179
00:12:41.639 --> 00:12:43.159
as a journalist, that's what I'm
always looking for it, So how you

180
00:12:43.159 --> 00:12:48.200
put a story together? So that
and plus just in the freaking intensity of

181
00:12:48.240 --> 00:12:50.879
it, you know, it was
like it was insane. You know,

182
00:12:50.080 --> 00:12:54.240
my dad was about my age now
and this is my age now when that

183
00:12:54.320 --> 00:12:58.720
happened, and you know, he
no, he might have been he might

184
00:12:58.759 --> 00:13:01.600
have been few years old. He's
about fifty five afty six when it happened,

185
00:13:01.639 --> 00:13:05.840
and I mean it freaked him out. You know, Like my dad

186
00:13:05.879 --> 00:13:09.360
loved this stuff, but like he's
gone now. But like if we were

187
00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:11.960
out doing research and we heard something, the campfire would get way big all

188
00:13:13.000 --> 00:13:16.480
of a suddenly. It was like, you know, it was He's the

189
00:13:16.559 --> 00:13:20.480
ultimate campfire builder. But it was
one of those things. And you say,

190
00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:24.360
it gives you a perspective when you
interview someone or talk with someone that's

191
00:13:24.399 --> 00:13:28.240
had something that's really intense happened.
It gives you that perspective to go,

192
00:13:28.440 --> 00:13:31.360
Okay, I get it, you
know, so let's just hear him out,

193
00:13:33.120 --> 00:13:37.200
you know, Chester from what I'm
getting from you, you know,

194
00:13:37.240 --> 00:13:41.720
there's two different categories in the Bigfoot
research. There's the WU and then there's

195
00:13:41.840 --> 00:13:48.320
the APIs. I'm putting you in
the APIs category, and I'm kind of

196
00:13:48.399 --> 00:13:52.320
assuming that's where you would go.
You know what, I'm gonna give the

197
00:13:52.399 --> 00:13:56.440
honest answer, I don't know,
I don't know. I think Okay,

198
00:13:58.159 --> 00:14:01.720
I don't know. I don't know. I think it flesh and blood real,

199
00:14:01.000 --> 00:14:03.840
I'll give you that much. And
it's a primate and it makes a

200
00:14:03.840 --> 00:14:09.080
whole lot more ape like stuff than
human. So it's probably probably probably where

201
00:14:09.080 --> 00:14:11.320
I would fall for sure. Yeah, but uh, you know, do

202
00:14:11.399 --> 00:14:16.120
I think there's something extra with these
It could be possible, but from what

203
00:14:16.240 --> 00:14:24.120
I experienced, very very ape like
primate like behavior that matches but not exactly

204
00:14:24.320 --> 00:14:30.720
like no primates. No, but
it's similar enough to make that correlation to

205
00:14:30.879 --> 00:14:35.440
go, yeah, it's reasonable to
say that, you know, primate does

206
00:14:35.480 --> 00:14:39.799
this type of activity. It's very
possible that these creatures do the same,

207
00:14:41.440 --> 00:14:46.120
similar activity, not exactly because each
animal is different as well as you would

208
00:14:46.200 --> 00:14:54.279
know. You know, there are
similarities in other creatures that kind of replicate

209
00:14:54.679 --> 00:15:05.799
similar behaviors, but they're a completely
different animal altogether, exactly. Henry Baker

210
00:15:05.879 --> 00:15:11.159
questions Before I go on, I
add a question for Chester as far as

211
00:15:13.799 --> 00:15:18.360
your position on killer or no kill? Are you still pro kill or you

212
00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:24.320
modify that bit? Well, I
figured this would come up, but I'll

213
00:15:24.360 --> 00:15:28.879
say this, there will not be
one proven until there's a dead body somewhere.

214
00:15:28.600 --> 00:15:33.799
I just don't see it scientifically possible. And the reason I say that

215
00:15:33.960 --> 00:15:39.039
is this isn't some subspecies of woodpecker
that we know exist. This is something

216
00:15:39.080 --> 00:15:43.120
that's a paradigm changer. So there
will have to be a body, live

217
00:15:43.240 --> 00:15:50.440
or dead. Here's my position.
I no longer engage in any activity unless

218
00:15:50.440 --> 00:15:54.120
it will be self defense. And
there's a couple of reasons behind that.

219
00:15:54.200 --> 00:15:58.559
The first was self preservation. If
someone shoots one of these, and if

220
00:15:58.559 --> 00:16:02.840
you're listening, think about this,
your life may be over. I know

221
00:16:02.960 --> 00:16:08.440
people who've shot legal abundant game in
Africa and had problems with animal rights people

222
00:16:10.039 --> 00:16:14.200
think about this. So I just
decided it wasn't worth it for me and

223
00:16:14.279 --> 00:16:18.039
my family. And the chances of
it ever happening were almost zero anyway,

224
00:16:18.639 --> 00:16:22.799
So I no longer engage in that. But I still think that it's going

225
00:16:22.879 --> 00:16:26.320
to require a body. I just
don't see how it won't. I could

226
00:16:26.480 --> 00:16:30.639
understand that. I mean, we've
had this discussion multiple times. I don't

227
00:16:30.679 --> 00:16:37.200
think if the body's found, it's
either going to be accidentally sure as I

228
00:16:37.360 --> 00:16:41.000
accidentally found the body and then I
could prove it because it was there when

229
00:16:41.039 --> 00:16:45.600
I came back, or accidentally hit
it with my car. Now, I've

230
00:16:45.600 --> 00:16:49.240
always believed that it's not going to
be a research group or a researcher that

231
00:16:49.440 --> 00:16:53.120
minds it. It's going to be
some old lady high on Sheardonay, driving

232
00:16:53.159 --> 00:16:59.639
home, and she problem and she
tries to Harry and Henderson into the back

233
00:16:59.679 --> 00:17:02.879
of the are and then yeah,
then she brings it to some animal,

234
00:17:03.039 --> 00:17:07.079
She brings it to some animal shelters, and then it becomes a news story.

235
00:17:07.240 --> 00:17:10.440
I don't think it's gonna be.
And don't get me wrong, I

236
00:17:10.440 --> 00:17:14.400
think some of our researchers are phenomenal. Sure, I don't think any of

237
00:17:14.400 --> 00:17:18.119
them are ever going to back Bigfoot. You know, I don't know it.

238
00:17:18.319 --> 00:17:22.400
Probably my chance would just be someone
who's hunting and shot one and got

239
00:17:22.440 --> 00:17:27.319
scared, or a road kills probably
a pretty high level of that, or

240
00:17:27.599 --> 00:17:30.240
you know, the chances of the
one just finding one laying there dead is

241
00:17:30.279 --> 00:17:33.279
almost nil, I think. But
it would have to be something like a

242
00:17:33.359 --> 00:17:37.440
road killer or somebody shooting one or
or whatever, or someone like, you

243
00:17:37.480 --> 00:17:40.640
know, something raiding someone's chicken coop
and they just shoot a bunch of lab

244
00:17:40.720 --> 00:17:42.519
a bunch of shells back there and
go the next morning there's a dead bigfoot

245
00:17:42.599 --> 00:17:47.400
laying there, and what do I
have, you know, and you know

246
00:17:47.519 --> 00:17:49.519
that kind of stuff, and so
yeah, probably so, But I still

247
00:17:49.559 --> 00:17:53.720
think it will require more than just
a piece of DNA to oh yeah,

248
00:17:53.759 --> 00:17:57.000
there's gonna be a whole bony in
consider it as species, you know,

249
00:17:57.119 --> 00:18:02.000
because of what we're dealing with,
you know, right, I agree that

250
00:18:02.160 --> 00:18:08.480
I think it has to be a
civilian discovery instead of a governmental and I'm

251
00:18:08.480 --> 00:18:14.559
not talking federal, I'm talking you
know, local government, an incible government

252
00:18:14.720 --> 00:18:22.200
and state government discovery. If it's
a civilian discovery of a carcass of whatever

253
00:18:22.319 --> 00:18:26.599
sort, even if it's decayed for
a period of time, I think that's

254
00:18:26.759 --> 00:18:33.119
where most of the evidence will come
to the service. Otherwise it may just

255
00:18:33.240 --> 00:18:40.799
get buried under a governmental umbrella of
swords. Yeah, you know, and

256
00:18:41.039 --> 00:18:45.039
that's a really easy rabbit hole to
go into. What's happened with Putent I

257
00:18:45.079 --> 00:18:48.319
talk a little bit about my book
what potentially has happened with carcasses and things

258
00:18:48.359 --> 00:18:55.119
before. I think if someone does
get a carcass, there will be a

259
00:18:55.279 --> 00:19:00.680
very short window to make it to
media in time before some and happens with

260
00:19:00.759 --> 00:19:03.039
that thing. You know. I
think there's a there's a there's but that's

261
00:19:03.039 --> 00:19:07.880
probably the most likely reason for I
know this. I work with wildlife officials

262
00:19:07.920 --> 00:19:11.799
around the globe all the time,
and I don't think there are a lot

263
00:19:11.839 --> 00:19:17.200
of conspiracies to hide stuff. I
just think there is a narrative that anything

264
00:19:17.279 --> 00:19:19.759
that doesn't help us get grants and
make us money, or that might be

265
00:19:19.839 --> 00:19:26.759
controversial, or that might be controversial
to us and cause us heat, We're

266
00:19:26.839 --> 00:19:29.400
just don't We're just gonna ignore it. It's not there, you know.

267
00:19:29.440 --> 00:19:33.880
I've seen it with mountain lions and
other stuff, which is ridiculous because mounta

268
00:19:33.920 --> 00:19:37.000
lions are in native to much of
Tanada, all below forty eight and all

269
00:19:37.039 --> 00:19:40.359
the way down to Patagonia. I
mean, why wouldn't we admit there are

270
00:19:40.359 --> 00:19:42.400
mountain lions east of you know,
I thirty five in Dallas, Texas,

271
00:19:42.440 --> 00:19:47.079
you know. But it's so if
that can be heat and controversy, come

272
00:19:47.079 --> 00:19:48.839
on, man, a you know, an eight foot tall primate that looks

273
00:19:48.920 --> 00:19:52.720
kind of like a dude. That's
going to cause a entirely different level of

274
00:19:52.759 --> 00:20:02.119
that. I feel attacked Chester and
being in wildlife journal? Has the Bigfoot

275
00:20:02.279 --> 00:20:07.720
and being attached to Bigfoot impacted any
of your professional endeavors? You know,

276
00:20:07.799 --> 00:20:11.519
It's a great question, because I
was nervous to talk about it in the

277
00:20:11.559 --> 00:20:15.119
beginning, you know. And I
still don't go around like I'm not you

278
00:20:15.119 --> 00:20:18.359
know, I don't preach the gospel
of Bigfoot. I just still talk about

279
00:20:18.400 --> 00:20:22.079
it. But I haven't had any
reduction in my career, you know,

280
00:20:22.200 --> 00:20:26.720
I mean, any less pay I'm
making just because the business I work in

281
00:20:26.839 --> 00:20:30.200
shrinking. But it's I've never lost
a job that I'm aware of because of

282
00:20:30.240 --> 00:20:33.240
it. I'm still doing what I
was doing. And I think some of

283
00:20:33.319 --> 00:20:38.200
it's because I'm a relatively sane,
rational guy talking about this stuff. I'm

284
00:20:38.240 --> 00:20:42.559
not talking, I'm not looking,
you know, talking about meeting the ghost

285
00:20:42.680 --> 00:20:47.119
of Richard Nixon and Elvis in a
UFO talking to Bigfoot. You know,

286
00:20:47.160 --> 00:20:51.400
I'm talking about what people are seeing, you know. But I did have

287
00:20:51.440 --> 00:20:53.759
a funny story about this. I've
only had a couple of people in my

288
00:20:53.880 --> 00:20:56.640
business bring it up. I've had
a lot of readers bringing up like I'll

289
00:20:56.640 --> 00:20:59.680
be at a sports show, a
fishing show, and I have a lot

290
00:20:59.720 --> 00:21:03.400
of people ask about it there.
And I had a few jackasses ask a

291
00:21:03.440 --> 00:21:06.519
couple of dumb questions. You know
that's expected. But I had a guy.

292
00:21:07.240 --> 00:21:08.640
Yeah, I had a guy walk
up to me one time and say,

293
00:21:08.640 --> 00:21:14.200
man, it's a writer. We
have we found a bigfoot tracks out

294
00:21:14.200 --> 00:21:15.640
behind the hotel. If you want
to go get some plaster. And this

295
00:21:15.680 --> 00:21:18.079
is before I was walking with the
Lord. So I gave him some stone

296
00:21:18.079 --> 00:21:22.839
cold Steve often hand signatures in his
face literally and walked off. And the

297
00:21:22.880 --> 00:21:27.480
guy follows me into the elevator.
And I'm going to do what you want.

298
00:21:27.519 --> 00:21:30.440
I don't, you know. I
just I'm not someone who operates in

299
00:21:30.480 --> 00:21:36.119
dishonor I don't go even somebody I
like radically disagree with, I would never

300
00:21:36.279 --> 00:21:40.799
like go mess with him or dishonor
just the culture I've created for our family,

301
00:21:40.799 --> 00:21:42.119
you know. You know. He
gets in and he starts telling,

302
00:21:42.240 --> 00:21:45.559
I don't know about no big fields. I saw this weird thing in south

303
00:21:45.640 --> 00:21:49.920
Newton County, Texas. And I'm
like, where, because that's where I

304
00:21:51.319 --> 00:21:55.160
done most of my research. And
he knew he lived in Dallas, which

305
00:21:55.200 --> 00:21:57.559
is four and a half five hours
away. So he tells me a story

306
00:21:57.599 --> 00:22:02.440
of going to his buddy dearly is
an opening weekend in southern part of Newton

307
00:22:02.480 --> 00:22:06.240
County and coming across the sign that
says Nichols Creek and on the cover of

308
00:22:06.279 --> 00:22:11.240
Bigfoot South, there's this grayish looking
bigfoot in his little sign and says Nichols

309
00:22:11.240 --> 00:22:14.200
Creek. There's a reason for that. So I said, come on,

310
00:22:14.400 --> 00:22:18.119
keep talking, and he said,
we left about midnight to get there about

311
00:22:18.119 --> 00:22:19.759
five point thirty at camp and get
ready to go out and eat breakfast and

312
00:22:19.759 --> 00:22:22.920
get ready to go out to the
stands. And I just woken up and

313
00:22:23.319 --> 00:22:27.359
I'm in the passenger and I look
over and standing on the white line about

314
00:22:27.359 --> 00:22:30.200
to cross the road is this thing. It's about five and a half six

315
00:22:30.240 --> 00:22:34.599
feet tall, gray, and it
had haroll over except on its face,

316
00:22:34.640 --> 00:22:38.200
and the face kind of looked like
maybe like some kind of an ape human

317
00:22:38.319 --> 00:22:42.759
bok thing. I said, Hut
on a second, Bigfoot's funny and mockable

318
00:22:42.799 --> 00:22:45.759
to you, What the heck do
you think you saw? And I'll never

319
00:22:45.759 --> 00:22:48.319
forget the answer. It's the greatest
answer I may have ever gotten in my

320
00:22:48.359 --> 00:22:52.720
life. I thought it might have
been some kind of weird wolf, I

321
00:22:52.759 --> 00:22:56.039
said. I said, so,
we have bipedal wolves walking around, and

322
00:22:56.079 --> 00:23:00.599
that's cool, but Bigfoot's mockable.
Now. What I didn't him was I

323
00:23:00.759 --> 00:23:07.960
already had two other reports in front
of the same sign over a course of

324
00:23:08.000 --> 00:23:12.359
ten years by people. One of
them was before the internet, really was

325
00:23:12.400 --> 00:23:21.599
a factor of a gray colored bigfoot. And as I'm finishing Bigfoot South shameless

326
00:23:21.599 --> 00:23:26.279
plug bigfootsuth dot com, it's for
sale now, a lady sent me a

327
00:23:26.319 --> 00:23:30.440
message on Facebook, who lives in
Newton County thinks sir, and she wanted

328
00:23:30.480 --> 00:23:33.079
me to come check her property out. And at the end of her message,

329
00:23:33.079 --> 00:23:34.839
and when I was on a trip, I couldn't get to it.

330
00:23:34.920 --> 00:23:38.240
The very last message, do you
think it's possible there are gray bigfoots?

331
00:23:40.079 --> 00:23:45.160
And a relative of hers saw a
gray colored bigfoot crossing a road, not

332
00:23:45.240 --> 00:23:48.599
on a Nichols Creek sign, but
about three miles as a crow flies in

333
00:23:48.599 --> 00:23:53.440
the same set of woods, so
patternformed and that was probably my biggest story

334
00:23:53.440 --> 00:23:57.440
of anyone in the industry saying anything. And you know, like I don't.

335
00:23:57.839 --> 00:24:04.039
I think some people, a lot
of people into Bigfoot are so blown

336
00:24:04.039 --> 00:24:07.920
away by the fantastic nature that they
just don't know how to act around people.

337
00:24:08.279 --> 00:24:11.759
They don't know that. People just
want to do whatever. I let

338
00:24:11.799 --> 00:24:15.359
people bring Bigfoot up to me.
I don't have to because they flip the

339
00:24:15.440 --> 00:24:18.000
channels too long. They're gonna see
my mug on some bigfoot show. They

340
00:24:18.039 --> 00:24:22.000
run those things all the time,
and people are going to talk about it.

341
00:24:22.039 --> 00:24:23.119
So I talk about that level.
But I don't. I don't.

342
00:24:23.319 --> 00:24:26.640
It's not the most important thing in
the world. I mean, I know

343
00:24:26.680 --> 00:24:29.880
that's gonna hurt some feelings, but
there are other things that are more important

344
00:24:29.880 --> 00:24:33.799
than sass watch on the planet.
And I love the topic and I love

345
00:24:33.799 --> 00:24:36.039
to talk about it, but I
don't. I don't get up in people's

346
00:24:36.039 --> 00:24:38.519
face about it. You know,
I have to commend you on that two

347
00:24:38.519 --> 00:24:41.880
things. I think your answer to
the question was brilliant, you know,

348
00:24:41.440 --> 00:24:45.079
thank you. I'm a sane person. Right. I'm a professional person myself.

349
00:24:45.160 --> 00:24:48.440
Chester people know I do Bigfoot.
Like you said, it's not the

350
00:24:48.519 --> 00:24:52.200
driving factor in my life. It's
one hell of a good hobby. I

351
00:24:52.240 --> 00:24:56.720
love it. But in my day
today, anybody that's ever mocked has always

352
00:24:56.759 --> 00:25:00.599
sat down and left with a better
understanding of why I research. Right,

353
00:25:00.680 --> 00:25:03.920
it's an educational tool. Yeah,
like, yeah, it might be funny

354
00:25:03.960 --> 00:25:07.119
haha to them until you talk and
find out why. When you talk to

355
00:25:07.160 --> 00:25:11.400
that everyday person, a doctor,
lawyer, who had a sighting of something

356
00:25:11.440 --> 00:25:17.000
they can't explain, it's not so
funny to people at Eman. Yeah.

357
00:25:17.079 --> 00:25:19.720
Right, And that's a great hah. That's an incredible point, Sean,

358
00:25:19.759 --> 00:25:23.880
because another reason that I continue to
do this is the work that me and

359
00:25:23.920 --> 00:25:27.759
my wife do with hurting children.
We have a ministry outreach. Our goals

360
00:25:27.759 --> 00:25:30.680
to bring the love of Christ to
hurting kids to wildlife encounters, and we

361
00:25:30.720 --> 00:25:34.960
have done numerous bigfoot expeditions. And
I don't want to hear some high and

362
00:25:36.079 --> 00:25:40.960
mighty elitists, you know, squashing
down the idea of bigfoot because they have

363
00:25:41.079 --> 00:25:45.000
lesser brain cells, or because there's
some kind of ego and hurting that little

364
00:25:45.160 --> 00:25:48.279
kid who dreams big and wants to
go look for something to interest them.

365
00:25:48.720 --> 00:25:53.799
That's where it makes me mad.
And so I think that this topic obviously

366
00:25:53.839 --> 00:25:56.839
probably represents a lot of the child
in all of us, which is a

367
00:25:56.839 --> 00:26:00.200
good thing. I mean, I
have grown up yet, you know,

368
00:26:00.759 --> 00:26:03.160
right, and you know, I
don't want to I've seen it. It

369
00:26:03.279 --> 00:26:07.039
sucks and and I pay my bills
and I do what I gotta do,

370
00:26:07.119 --> 00:26:10.680
but I still have a yearning for
this. And I think that's a great

371
00:26:10.680 --> 00:26:14.759
point about when you sit down and
talk to people that most people will at

372
00:26:14.839 --> 00:26:17.920
least come that's that's kind of that's
kind of interesting, you know, or

373
00:26:18.400 --> 00:26:21.559
or what happens. I've I've noticed
this too. I had the one guy

374
00:26:21.599 --> 00:26:23.880
who you know, had the I
went off on when to headle look that

375
00:26:23.880 --> 00:26:30.440
way now. But I have had
a couple of people like just pull me

376
00:26:30.480 --> 00:26:33.839
aside to like a fishing ear sport
hunting show, right, and they'll go

377
00:26:33.960 --> 00:26:36.880
and I know when they pull me
aside what they're about to ask. I

378
00:26:36.960 --> 00:26:41.480
just know, and they'll tell me
some story they would never dream going public

379
00:26:41.519 --> 00:26:44.200
with, you know, Like,
I don't know if you think this is

380
00:26:44.279 --> 00:26:48.759
real, but I saw this big
shaggy thing about seven feet tall with the

381
00:26:48.799 --> 00:26:52.359
reddish brown hair crossing the road in
front of you know, wherever. And

382
00:26:52.400 --> 00:26:55.160
I'm like, yeah, that's that's
very interesting. Get details from them.

383
00:26:55.160 --> 00:27:00.160
And I think sometimes us treating other
people with respect about it, it's just

384
00:27:00.200 --> 00:27:03.599
as important, you know, absolutely, And guys Baker hold that thought.

385
00:27:03.680 --> 00:27:07.920
We have to take our break.
It is nine twenty eight, folks.

386
00:27:07.960 --> 00:27:11.000
You're listening to the Sasquatch Experience Monday, April. First, this is not

387
00:27:11.039 --> 00:27:15.000
an April fool's joke. You're listening
to the Sasquatch Experience for Chester Moore,

388
00:27:15.039 --> 00:27:18.440
Shawn Forker, James Baker, Vince
Nes met Henry May. And we'll be

389
00:27:18.519 --> 00:27:32.039
back right after this new Steve A. Simbon Ah. Yes, the day

390
00:27:32.079 --> 00:27:37.640
after the Easter Bunny leaves the eggs
in Candy Studio four oh one smells like

391
00:27:37.680 --> 00:27:45.960
a sulfur pit. Thanks Lannie.
Oh it's nice to Oh okay, can

392
00:27:47.000 --> 00:27:53.799
you take it to the bathroom and
turn the fan on please. I'd much

393
00:27:53.960 --> 00:27:59.759
rather smell of cabbage right now.
The stink pit it smells like in here.

394
00:28:00.880 --> 00:28:06.559
I apologized everybody. This is the
Bigfoot Bullhorn. Happy Monday night to

395
00:28:06.640 --> 00:28:11.240
you all right here on the Sasquatch
experience. Well, hopefully that's a problem

396
00:28:11.240 --> 00:28:15.160
that's going to get handled anyway.
Let's do it. We're here for you

397
00:28:15.160 --> 00:28:22.000
know, on the bullfoot Bullgarn.
The BFRO, or as I like to

398
00:28:22.000 --> 00:28:27.759
say, BUFFRO, had a investigation
of a recent sighting of a sasquatch like

399
00:28:27.839 --> 00:28:34.440
creature north of Centralia, Washington State. According to one witness who was riding

400
00:28:34.480 --> 00:28:41.599
motorcycles with his friend and three and
a half year old son on a motorcycle.

401
00:28:41.799 --> 00:28:45.279
Okay, I bet he had his
own motorcycle back on February fourth,

402
00:28:45.720 --> 00:28:51.359
the group spotted something running across the
ridgetop about a half a mile away.

403
00:28:52.680 --> 00:28:56.839
Quote. It was very large,
human shaped. The man reported to the

404
00:28:56.839 --> 00:29:03.599
BFRO there was one color team slash
brown. Well that's two colors, but

405
00:29:04.759 --> 00:29:11.200
moving across a very rugged terrain,
making a beeline for the trees. The

406
00:29:11.240 --> 00:29:15.480
three of them watched the figure for
about thirty seconds before it went out of

407
00:29:15.559 --> 00:29:19.759
sight. It moves so fluently with
little arm movement, unlike a human being

408
00:29:19.839 --> 00:29:26.119
running. The witness said. It
easily was ten feet tall for us to

409
00:29:26.119 --> 00:29:30.039
be able to see it from that
distance. The witness reported the sighting to

410
00:29:30.119 --> 00:29:37.079
the BFRO on February eighth, investigator
Scott Taylor followed up with his investigation.

411
00:29:37.799 --> 00:29:41.960
Taylor said that that area is well
known for bigfoot sightings and seems to be

412
00:29:42.119 --> 00:29:49.240
traveled corridor between the Capitol Forest and
Bald Hill area. Based on the description

413
00:29:49.519 --> 00:29:53.720
of the way the creature walked and
its speed across the terrain, I believe

414
00:29:53.880 --> 00:30:00.200
that these three witnesses were fortunate to
see a sasquatch. Another investor, GA

415
00:30:00.720 --> 00:30:06.240
we all know Matt Moneymaker, also
talked to the witnesses at length. Moneymaker

416
00:30:06.319 --> 00:30:11.640
noted that Fester's hobby is motorcycle trail
riding, which has allowed him to explore

417
00:30:11.720 --> 00:30:15.720
a lot of backcountry. He has
observed large animals and humans near and far

418
00:30:15.880 --> 00:30:22.079
while riding around the hills over the
years. This figure was observed at about

419
00:30:22.079 --> 00:30:26.279
a half a mile distance, but
with that unobscured view as it moved along

420
00:30:26.400 --> 00:30:33.039
an open area, both he and
the riding companions were certain they were watching

421
00:30:33.160 --> 00:30:38.720
something that was upright and roughly ten
feet tall. Now, Moneymaker said,

422
00:30:40.039 --> 00:30:44.640
if the figure was human, the
witness and his friend what have figured that

423
00:30:44.759 --> 00:30:51.480
out? The figure they saw was
simply too big to be human. Lenny,

424
00:30:52.000 --> 00:30:59.559
please again, I apologize for my
brother's irrehensible behavior. The investigator points

425
00:30:59.599 --> 00:31:04.599
out that that wildlife naturally transits between
the mountains of the Olympic Peninsula and then

426
00:31:04.680 --> 00:31:11.160
the Cascade Mountains. And this is
the first sasquatch sighting listed for Lewis County

427
00:31:11.640 --> 00:31:23.559
on the BFR website. When we
come back, very disappointing announcement. You're

428
00:31:23.599 --> 00:31:34.240
listening to the big foot bullhorn threat
here on the sasquatch experience. Do you

429
00:31:34.319 --> 00:31:40.119
have feelings of inadequacy? Do you
suffer from shyness? Do you sometimes wish

430
00:31:40.200 --> 00:31:44.160
you were more assertive? If you
answered yes to any of these questions,

431
00:31:44.279 --> 00:31:49.039
ask your doctor or pharmacist about tequila. Tequila is the safe, natural way

432
00:31:49.079 --> 00:31:53.720
to feel better and more confident about
yourself and your actions. Tequila can help

433
00:31:53.799 --> 00:31:57.119
ease you out of your shyness and
let you tell the world that you're ready

434
00:31:57.119 --> 00:32:01.599
and willing to do just about anything. You'll notice the benefits of tequila almost

435
00:32:01.720 --> 00:32:07.400
immediately, and with a regiment of
regular doses, you can overcome any obstacles

436
00:32:07.400 --> 00:32:10.559
that prevent you from living the life
you want to live. Shyness and awkwardness

437
00:32:10.599 --> 00:32:15.279
will be a thing of the past, and you'll discover many talents you never

438
00:32:15.359 --> 00:32:20.839
knew you had stop hiding and start
living with tequila. Tequila may not be

439
00:32:20.920 --> 00:32:22.759
right for everyone. Women who are
pregnant or nursing should not use tequila.

440
00:32:22.839 --> 00:32:25.839
However, women who wouldn't mind nursing
or becoming pregnant are encouraged to try,

441
00:32:25.839 --> 00:32:30.799
and side effects may include dizziness,
nausea, vomiting and incarceration, erotic lustfulness,

442
00:32:30.880 --> 00:32:32.319
loss of motor control, loss of
clothing, loss of money, loss

443
00:32:32.319 --> 00:32:36.759
of virginity, delusions of grand are
table dancing, headache, dehydration, drime

444
00:32:36.799 --> 00:32:38.200
out, and a desire to see
karaoke and play all night. Rouse of

445
00:32:38.200 --> 00:32:42.200
strip pok or through their dare and
naked twister. Warning. The consumption of

446
00:32:42.200 --> 00:32:45.000
alcohol may make you think you're whispering
when you're not. Is a major factor

447
00:32:45.039 --> 00:32:46.599
in dancing like a retard. May
cause you to tell your friends over and

448
00:32:46.599 --> 00:32:49.880
over again that you're in love with
them. Also may cause you to think

449
00:32:49.920 --> 00:32:52.960
you can sing. Alcohol may lead
to believe that ex lovers are really dying

450
00:32:52.960 --> 00:32:54.440
for you to telephone them at four
in the morning. Alcohol may make you

451
00:32:54.480 --> 00:32:58.519
think you can logically converse with members
of the opposite sex without spitting. It

452
00:32:58.559 --> 00:33:00.400
may create the illusion that you are
tough for smarter, faster, and better

453
00:33:00.440 --> 00:33:04.119
looking than most people, and it
may lead you to think people are laughing

454
00:33:04.160 --> 00:33:07.039
with you. Alcohol may cause pregnancy, and it also may be a major

455
00:33:07.079 --> 00:33:09.319
factor in getting your ass kicked.
So what are you waiting for? Stop

456
00:33:09.400 --> 00:33:34.440
hiding and start living with tequila?
What are you kidding me? I understand

457
00:33:34.519 --> 00:33:39.000
that it's April Fool's Day, but
come on now, October fourth and fifth

458
00:33:39.000 --> 00:33:46.400
of this year, the Hanobia Bigfoot
Festival and Conference in Hanobia, Oklahoma has

459
00:33:46.519 --> 00:33:53.039
been canceled, and it was canceled
by Artie Carnes and the Kyamiche Mountain Christian

460
00:33:53.119 --> 00:33:59.920
Mission. Ah. You know,
at some point on the Sasquatch Experience,

461
00:34:00.079 --> 00:34:05.799
I'm sure we will talk about the
Hanobia events that happened that created this festival

462
00:34:06.000 --> 00:34:10.239
in conference to continue talking about it. I do not understand what the politics

463
00:34:10.400 --> 00:34:19.039
is involved here, but unfortunately this
is not an April Fool joke. Thanks

464
00:34:19.079 --> 00:34:22.920
again for listening to this edition of
the Big Football Horn right here on the

465
00:34:22.960 --> 00:34:29.119
Sasquatch Experience, and of course,
as always I'm there we meet again.

466
00:34:29.400 --> 00:34:45.400
Keep your toe in the mind.
We here at the Sasquatch Experience do not

467
00:34:45.440 --> 00:34:51.000
condone the use of tequila as once
again our editor must have fell asleep at

468
00:34:51.039 --> 00:34:54.519
the wheel tonight. Good evening,
folks, welcome back Sasquatch experience. I'm

469
00:34:54.519 --> 00:34:59.159
Sean Forker, James Baker, Henry
may Vince and has bitten our guest Chester

470
00:34:59.360 --> 00:35:01.639
Moore. Guy. We had a
great first half of the show. Vance.

471
00:35:01.679 --> 00:35:05.679
Thank you for that entertaining big foot
bull horn tonight. I appreciate that,

472
00:35:05.719 --> 00:35:09.239
buddy, mm hmmm. And the
bathroom as we say, well,

473
00:35:09.239 --> 00:35:14.280
that's what already belongs. He was
really stinking up the joint tonight. Hey,

474
00:35:14.519 --> 00:35:17.639
that the NUBI Bigfoot conference. That's
that's news to me. I'm glad

475
00:35:17.639 --> 00:35:22.800
you brought that up, fools Brook. I was one of the speakers and

476
00:35:22.880 --> 00:35:29.199
got a faceboot message about that it
may still be going on. So it

477
00:35:29.840 --> 00:35:34.800
does. I hope it does,
because Chester keep us posting, Yeah,

478
00:35:35.119 --> 00:35:37.719
I'm gonna speak this year, and
I gotta I got an email. It

479
00:35:37.719 --> 00:35:39.400
looks like it's it's a good chance
it's still gonna go on. They didn't

480
00:35:39.440 --> 00:35:43.840
get much more details than that,
but that's a little caveat I can add.

481
00:35:43.880 --> 00:35:47.199
Right there there you go, breaking
news right here after the bullhorn.

482
00:35:47.320 --> 00:35:51.320
So thank you Chester. See we
can we bring you up to the latest,

483
00:35:51.360 --> 00:35:54.480
folks, we keep our commitments to
you on that. So Baker,

484
00:35:54.519 --> 00:35:57.679
before we went to break, You're
gonna ask a question. Go ahead,

485
00:35:57.719 --> 00:36:00.280
pick up where you left off,
buddy. No, I think it was

486
00:36:00.320 --> 00:36:02.679
more of a statement and kind of
what he was already talking about. He

487
00:36:02.679 --> 00:36:06.880
says, you know, that's the
one thing you make a valid point about

488
00:36:06.960 --> 00:36:09.039
people you meet about the Bigfoot,
the people that make fun of you and

489
00:36:09.039 --> 00:36:14.519
things like that, or try to
make life more difficult. The opposite of

490
00:36:14.559 --> 00:36:16.639
what I see a lot is and
I saw some this weekend, and I've

491
00:36:16.679 --> 00:36:22.840
seen some of the other conferences are
as the like I call him almost street

492
00:36:22.880 --> 00:36:25.719
preachers, Like they're just like that. You have to believe exactly what they

493
00:36:25.760 --> 00:36:30.840
say or they just keep jamming it
down your throat. That's got this has

494
00:36:30.880 --> 00:36:34.760
got to be a stick formation.
And you see what you're like, No,

495
00:36:34.760 --> 00:36:37.079
no, I don't. And they
mad. And those are the people

496
00:36:37.119 --> 00:36:44.119
that make it harder for us to
research into a lot of those. I

497
00:36:44.320 --> 00:36:47.920
look, I'm a very non drama
person. I don't mind confrontation. I

498
00:36:47.920 --> 00:36:52.480
don't ever look for it because I
look at like this scene on Tombstone,

499
00:36:52.519 --> 00:36:55.320
my favorite movie. You know,
Johnny Ringo wants to fight wid at Ear

500
00:36:55.320 --> 00:36:58.480
if he says, I'm not going
to fight you today. There's no money

501
00:36:58.519 --> 00:37:01.320
in it, you know, so
unless there's a cause for me to argue

502
00:37:01.320 --> 00:37:05.519
with someone or like, hey man, this stick formation have to be two

503
00:37:05.519 --> 00:37:09.119
bigfoots setting up a territorial corridor.
Cool, glad you believe that? By

504
00:37:09.559 --> 00:37:14.239
I don't, I don't really,
I don't really fight it because I don't

505
00:37:14.239 --> 00:37:16.039
care, honestly. I mean,
if they want to think that, But

506
00:37:16.079 --> 00:37:20.360
the ones that get in your face
about it, I'm like, I'll just

507
00:37:20.480 --> 00:37:23.599
it's called delete. They're in block
cause if they're going to be that.

508
00:37:23.800 --> 00:37:29.559
My theory is if someone is going
to be so dogmatic, not only dogmatic,

509
00:37:29.599 --> 00:37:32.440
but like intense in your face about
something that we haven't even proved to

510
00:37:32.440 --> 00:37:37.960
exist on a scientific level yet to
where they're like in your face and you

511
00:37:37.000 --> 00:37:40.360
suck because you don't believe in it, delete block. I don't need that

512
00:37:40.440 --> 00:37:43.519
in my life. That's just kind
of kind of how we to live.

513
00:37:43.559 --> 00:37:45.280
You know. I'll be nice to
everybody, but if you become get in

514
00:37:45.280 --> 00:37:49.960
my face about something that's stupid,
by see ya Cinara, you know,

515
00:37:50.880 --> 00:37:53.519
right, and to take off what
you were saying Baker, like, when

516
00:37:53.559 --> 00:37:59.039
you've been here a long time,
you know, these aren't new conversations that

517
00:37:59.079 --> 00:38:01.679
have been had. These kindation that
going on from the beginning, and nobody's

518
00:38:01.719 --> 00:38:07.079
proven anything yet exactly to Chester's point, like, but we've heard people trying

519
00:38:07.119 --> 00:38:12.480
to make hay out of this stick
formation since we started. You know,

520
00:38:12.719 --> 00:38:15.920
really someone brought them up. I
like Chester before we went on the air.

521
00:38:15.559 --> 00:38:19.000
It was funny, how like,
up until twenty five years ago,

522
00:38:19.079 --> 00:38:22.119
nobody was talking about things like wood
knocks and stuff, and all of a

523
00:38:22.119 --> 00:38:25.599
sudden, somebody says it takes it
on and it becomes the gospel of behavior

524
00:38:25.679 --> 00:38:30.679
for these things. But when you
go back and I don't recall it now,

525
00:38:30.719 --> 00:38:35.039
the sounds we've had for forever.
But like the tree knocking, Like

526
00:38:35.119 --> 00:38:38.360
I don't recall that in any of
the early literature of the books. I

527
00:38:38.400 --> 00:38:40.880
could be wrong, it wouldn't be
the first time, but I don't recall

528
00:38:40.920 --> 00:38:46.480
that. Henry, do you recall
when tree knocking became a thing. I'm

529
00:38:46.519 --> 00:38:52.679
trying to remember. I don't believe
I believe I ever read about any book

530
00:38:52.639 --> 00:38:58.519
before like nineteen ninety five. Yeah, yeah, it's it. I don't

531
00:38:58.519 --> 00:39:02.000
remember it being like Bigfoot casebook or
you know, Lauren Coleman's books or any

532
00:39:02.000 --> 00:39:06.280
of that early stuff like that.
It may have been in there and we

533
00:39:06.400 --> 00:39:08.159
missed it. I mean, I
think it's good chance it's part of the

534
00:39:08.159 --> 00:39:12.679
phenomenon. I've certainly heard that myself. Not a lot, but I've heard

535
00:39:12.719 --> 00:39:16.480
things that were like that wasn't in
limb cracking, you know, but that

536
00:39:16.480 --> 00:39:22.119
that, and like just certain other
things being in the vernacular of the phenomenon.

537
00:39:22.119 --> 00:39:27.159
It has made it a lot harder
to research because everyone knows every they

538
00:39:27.199 --> 00:39:30.880
know the talking points. It's like, yeah, man, they no longer

539
00:39:30.000 --> 00:39:34.280
just say, you know, hey, I saw this thing. You know,

540
00:39:34.280 --> 00:39:36.960
I was I was in my deer
stand and this thing come and stood

541
00:39:37.000 --> 00:39:40.239
behind this tree about seventy five years
art and kept looking out behind the tree

542
00:39:40.320 --> 00:39:44.960
that I just saw this shadow move
through. It had this certain shape.

543
00:39:45.400 --> 00:39:47.960
Now you get well, you know, I found this travel corridor and there

544
00:39:49.000 --> 00:39:52.719
was a stick pointing this way and
another stick going this way. And then

545
00:39:52.800 --> 00:39:54.920
at that night I heard this particular
sound in the background, and I heard

546
00:39:54.960 --> 00:39:59.480
a whoop, and I heard the
samurai chatter. And you know, it's

547
00:39:59.559 --> 00:40:05.199
hard to sort through all of that
so much because of It's like you could

548
00:40:06.119 --> 00:40:09.400
as an interviewer, and you guys
as well, I can really easily if

549
00:40:09.440 --> 00:40:14.599
I wanted to guide a conversation somewhere, you know, you can, and

550
00:40:14.800 --> 00:40:19.320
sometimes just better to just let people
talk. And I've even had a particular

551
00:40:19.360 --> 00:40:22.559
situation where someone was going like,
I mean, they give me every single

552
00:40:23.360 --> 00:40:28.280
thing you've ever heard of on a
big foot television program in like three minutes,

553
00:40:28.880 --> 00:40:31.039
you know, and I just said, okay, let's just start.

554
00:40:31.239 --> 00:40:36.039
Let's leave all that stuff out.
What did you see? Because it was

555
00:40:36.079 --> 00:40:39.719
a sighting thing they saw, and
they told me this thing that they saw.

556
00:40:39.840 --> 00:40:45.280
I said, where did this other
stuff come into this equation of the

557
00:40:45.360 --> 00:40:50.000
sighting? And they were like,
well, I just remembered stuff that I

558
00:40:50.119 --> 00:40:53.159
had seen in that woods and things
like that, and that could be valid.

559
00:40:53.519 --> 00:40:57.679
I said, but let's stick with
the one thing we know for sure

560
00:40:58.360 --> 00:41:00.239
is related to your sighting, and
that's what and saw with your eyes.

561
00:41:00.880 --> 00:41:02.920
And then they just kind of calm
down about it. You know. I

562
00:41:02.920 --> 00:41:07.920
think sometimes people are wanting to they're
so nervous about telling the story that they

563
00:41:08.519 --> 00:41:13.199
want to fill in the blanks with
anything that might give them back up evidence

564
00:41:13.239 --> 00:41:15.599
to a bigfoot research. You know, I think you make a really good

565
00:41:15.599 --> 00:41:19.880
point with that, Chester, And
as we've talked about this in the past,

566
00:41:20.000 --> 00:41:25.519
is oftentimes, as investigators researchers,
are we leading the witness to where

567
00:41:25.519 --> 00:41:29.599
we want them to go, not
are we listening for where they need to

568
00:41:29.639 --> 00:41:32.199
take us? And and like you
said, pulling back and slowing it down.

569
00:41:32.199 --> 00:41:36.079
It's a fundamental issue I've had for
a long time and I've seen it

570
00:41:36.079 --> 00:41:42.760
in countless situations where I've been along
with somebody interviewing someone where they're giving the

571
00:41:42.840 --> 00:41:45.920
narrative to the witness without even realizing
it, like you're coaching them on.

572
00:41:45.880 --> 00:41:51.199
And it's there's not a lot of
integrity to that, right, whether it's

573
00:41:51.199 --> 00:41:54.880
done maliciously or not. You kind
of diluted your data pool. Yeah,

574
00:41:54.920 --> 00:42:00.320
it's really it's it can be a
tough area and something like this. It's

575
00:42:00.320 --> 00:42:04.119
not like there's an associated press guide
book to bigfoot interviewing, you know,

576
00:42:04.920 --> 00:42:07.480
you know, like I have when
I started off in my journalism career.

577
00:42:07.480 --> 00:42:09.239
This is kind of what we do, you know, So I just take

578
00:42:09.320 --> 00:42:14.559
basic from my and I'm sure I've
made mistakes doing the same stuff, you

579
00:42:14.559 --> 00:42:17.280
know, certainly not intentionally, but
I try to always kind of just bring

580
00:42:17.360 --> 00:42:22.840
things back to what happened, and
then we can ask, we can look

581
00:42:22.880 --> 00:42:27.760
at other things. And sometimes it's
it's some it's sometimes it's not everything people

582
00:42:27.800 --> 00:42:30.119
see is a bigfoot, you know, and and not everything they see is

583
00:42:30.159 --> 00:42:35.559
a guy in a suit, and
not everything as a whole as a lie.

584
00:42:35.719 --> 00:42:37.400
There's something. There's other things people
see. And I'll give you an

585
00:42:37.400 --> 00:42:44.000
interesting one because in the other more
I guess you could call mainstream work that

586
00:42:44.039 --> 00:42:46.519
I do. I do a lot
about like exotic wildlife, changing the landscape

587
00:42:46.519 --> 00:42:52.480
of America that's out there, so
much in the exotic world that is changing.

588
00:42:52.599 --> 00:42:54.639
And a guy told me is thing
in central Texas and he was out

589
00:42:54.639 --> 00:43:00.880
on a bigfoot expedition in an area
that was kind of un known for bigfoot.

590
00:43:00.920 --> 00:43:04.880
I kind of had some I had
some intel on the basic area within

591
00:43:04.920 --> 00:43:07.480
about thirty four forty five minute drive
and they've never heard a lot. And

592
00:43:07.599 --> 00:43:13.880
all of a sudden he talks about
this thing that came up and it moved

593
00:43:13.880 --> 00:43:15.360
in a weird fashion. You could
see it because if you ever use night

594
00:43:15.400 --> 00:43:20.079
vision goggles, it's not like you
see on the movies, you know.

595
00:43:20.280 --> 00:43:23.719
And this thing really big, about
six feet tall and had these weird He

596
00:43:23.760 --> 00:43:28.440
said, it almost looked like these
two horn things off of it. And

597
00:43:28.440 --> 00:43:31.559
he said when it left this area, it just like bam, it jumped

598
00:43:31.599 --> 00:43:36.920
and left. And I said,
you know, there's something that's becoming more

599
00:43:36.960 --> 00:43:42.719
common on ranches in that particular area, and it's a red kangaroo. And

600
00:43:43.719 --> 00:43:49.280
a red kangaroo can get about five
feet tall, and they're a balanced when

601
00:43:49.280 --> 00:43:53.000
they move, and they're out there
and they escape fences, and I know

602
00:43:53.039 --> 00:43:57.920
of stuff well. And the guy
went back because he said it looked like

603
00:43:58.039 --> 00:44:00.760
horns and it moved really weird.
He even mapped out and found there was

604
00:44:00.760 --> 00:44:06.800
a property within a half mile that
had red kangaroos. So crazy, we

605
00:44:06.840 --> 00:44:09.280
thought he wasn't saying it was a
bigfoot. He didn't know. He thought

606
00:44:09.280 --> 00:44:12.880
it might have been something of other
cryptid, you know, But it was

607
00:44:13.280 --> 00:44:15.960
for the expedition. I'm not saying
he for sure saw a red kangaroo,

608
00:44:16.000 --> 00:44:19.800
but when we narrowed that down and
there was a place nearby, it made

609
00:44:19.840 --> 00:44:23.559
sense. You know. So people
see other stuff too out there that may

610
00:44:23.639 --> 00:44:28.920
or may not be bigfoot. Do
you think he's still a jackalobe? I

611
00:44:28.960 --> 00:44:34.760
have not seen a jackoalobe jackalobes.
No, although in Duvoice, Wyoming,

612
00:44:34.840 --> 00:44:38.920
they have the largest taxidermied jackalobe of
all time and it is in a store

613
00:44:38.960 --> 00:44:43.840
and it's all real rabbit fur.
And Peter would hate it because they must

614
00:44:43.840 --> 00:44:46.519
have killed three hundred and fifty rabbits
to make this, you know what I

615
00:44:46.599 --> 00:44:51.719
mean. It was like it was
like, you know, it was you

616
00:44:51.800 --> 00:44:57.280
know Chester that brings me back to
because I'm old enough and being a kid

617
00:44:57.440 --> 00:45:02.400
in the nineteen seventies in the morning, eating breakfast, getting ready for school

618
00:45:02.480 --> 00:45:07.440
as a little kid, and mom
would have the AM radio on to the

619
00:45:07.480 --> 00:45:14.920
most popular news radio station in the
Chicago area, and there was a report

620
00:45:15.559 --> 00:45:22.760
of a kangaroo looking cryptid that was
running through the area and people freaked out.

621
00:45:23.360 --> 00:45:28.800
That's not something that exists here,
and it terrified me as a kid,

622
00:45:29.199 --> 00:45:32.760
but it terrified a lot of the
residents in the area, going,

623
00:45:34.199 --> 00:45:40.079
what type of creature looks like a
kangaroo that's in the area in the here.

624
00:45:40.800 --> 00:45:45.840
I'm sure you know now looking hindsight
twenty twenty, yes, somebody could

625
00:45:45.840 --> 00:45:50.639
have brought you know, a young
kangaroo in and it escaped, you know,

626
00:45:50.719 --> 00:45:55.159
its enclosure. But boy, let
me tell you the terror that was

627
00:45:55.360 --> 00:46:00.480
invoked upon the area. And we're
talking, you know, damn miles.

628
00:46:01.079 --> 00:46:07.880
People were terrified of an unknown creature
that was in the area and and then

629
00:46:07.880 --> 00:46:13.159
it was they got the weight lifter
biceps in the veins through their yes,

630
00:46:13.400 --> 00:46:19.239
their jazz. Right. The first
time I did, we do a program

631
00:46:19.280 --> 00:46:22.360
that Grant's Wildlife Encounters for children with
the critical illness parental loss. Girls have

632
00:46:22.400 --> 00:46:27.639
been through trafficking, kids dealing with
depression. And we had some kids that

633
00:46:27.679 --> 00:46:30.159
wanted to meet some kangaroos and there
was a guy who had our red kangaroos

634
00:46:30.719 --> 00:46:36.480
and his females all had Joey's in
their pouch at the time. The females

635
00:46:36.519 --> 00:46:38.559
you could walk up to im pat
and you know, and then they would

636
00:46:38.559 --> 00:46:40.719
eat out of your hand. The
kids were freaking out. Well, there

637
00:46:40.800 --> 00:46:45.199
was one big male in there,
but he was way off, you know,

638
00:46:45.280 --> 00:46:47.159
like an acre or so away.
When the big male rolled up,

639
00:46:47.480 --> 00:46:52.559
he showed those guns to us,
right like, I'm not going out like

640
00:46:52.599 --> 00:46:55.440
this man. And the guy goes
this top of roll, you know,

641
00:46:57.360 --> 00:47:00.679
and so that's yeah, there you
go. I mean, they're pretty intimidating

642
00:47:00.159 --> 00:47:07.079
and as solid as you are.
Right, Yeah, I'm not going to

643
00:47:07.119 --> 00:47:10.719
get into a fight or a kickfight
with you. No, Now, I'll

644
00:47:10.800 --> 00:47:15.320
choose another way to die. Thanks. Yeah. And and vocalizations are something

645
00:47:16.000 --> 00:47:21.119
that I have an issue to my
podcast Dark Outdoors, and I interviewed Ron

646
00:47:21.119 --> 00:47:23.960
Moorehead a little bit on it,
and I went through different sounds that are

647
00:47:24.000 --> 00:47:28.159
known animals. And one of the
things is people in the eastern half of

648
00:47:28.199 --> 00:47:30.599
the US, a lot of them
don't realize they are a major There have

649
00:47:30.719 --> 00:47:37.480
been major elk restoration programs in Kentucky
and Virginia and Tennessee and North Carolina and

650
00:47:37.519 --> 00:47:42.159
all these states, and people are
not used to hearing rutting elk bugling.

651
00:47:42.679 --> 00:47:45.760
You know, that's pretty much something
people in Colorado and Montana, wyoming O

652
00:47:45.880 --> 00:47:51.280
the way up sitting northwest. So
someone at their campsite has a bull they

653
00:47:51.320 --> 00:47:54.440
don't know lives, are elk bugling
by their tent. They may think it's

654
00:47:54.440 --> 00:47:58.119
a sasquatch, all right, you
know, Chester, I had a three

655
00:47:58.159 --> 00:48:02.119
point thirty in the morning encounter with
elk bugling in our campsite, and about

656
00:48:02.119 --> 00:48:07.079
a dozen of us left cut out
impressions in our tents, scrambling what the

657
00:48:07.119 --> 00:48:12.840
hell that noise was we knew after
the initial shock, you know, wore

658
00:48:12.880 --> 00:48:16.000
off because it just happened so sporadically
early in the morning. But it was

659
00:48:16.079 --> 00:48:22.679
crazy. And I live up in
northern PA. We have, you know,

660
00:48:22.079 --> 00:48:25.519
elk herds up this way. And
Matt Arner, one of our co

661
00:48:25.599 --> 00:48:29.239
hosts who's not on with us tonight, we were out about two weeks ago,

662
00:48:29.239 --> 00:48:32.639
three weeks ago now, and we
were driving down the old roads,

663
00:48:34.159 --> 00:48:37.639
dirt roads, and we just happened
to be going by and I saw something

664
00:48:37.760 --> 00:48:42.360
large and fur covered just out of
my peripheral and I said, what maw,

665
00:48:42.360 --> 00:48:45.960
what the hell was that? And
he stops and we look and there's

666
00:48:45.880 --> 00:48:50.559
five or six elk right alongside the
road. Like we wouldn't even have seen

667
00:48:50.639 --> 00:48:53.480
them. They were so still.
I just happened to catch that. And

668
00:48:53.519 --> 00:48:58.800
you're talking about massive creatures. Man. They are big and they got lung

669
00:48:58.880 --> 00:49:01.800
powered, you know I do.
And the wildlife conservation world that I got

670
00:49:01.800 --> 00:49:05.119
an elk back. There's an elk
right behind me. He was a former

671
00:49:05.159 --> 00:49:07.400
elk, you know, he's a
part of an elk. But the incredible

672
00:49:07.440 --> 00:49:13.239
animals has been great wildlife conservation work
to restore them on that part of the

673
00:49:13.280 --> 00:49:16.079
world. As matter of fact,
I just I just put in for a

674
00:49:16.119 --> 00:49:21.599
non resident Kentucky elk tag, hoping
it gets some elk for the more family

675
00:49:21.679 --> 00:49:24.360
to last. This for beef replacement
for the next year. We'll see what

676
00:49:24.400 --> 00:49:28.760
happens. I think probably ten thousand
others are drawn for that tag in Kentucky,

677
00:49:29.119 --> 00:49:34.000
but it's you know, there's all
yeah, yeah, exactly. So

678
00:49:34.239 --> 00:49:37.960
like in Bigfoot South, I talk
about, you know, you mentioned earlier

679
00:49:37.159 --> 00:49:43.159
feral primates and escape animals and things
like that. We have in Dilley,

680
00:49:43.159 --> 00:49:47.079
Texas, which is south of San
Antonio, an established and verified population of

681
00:49:47.159 --> 00:49:53.840
Japanese macaqus. And my first encounter
hearing of those was back when I was

682
00:49:53.840 --> 00:49:58.360
in college bull hunting down there,
and I was doing what I'm doing now

683
00:49:58.480 --> 00:50:00.800
at a much lesser level. And
this guy had read my column and invited

684
00:50:00.800 --> 00:50:04.519
me to hunt his ranch, and
he told me his story at campfire night.

685
00:50:04.559 --> 00:50:07.079
He goes, you know, a
buddy of mine was hunting one morning.

686
00:50:07.119 --> 00:50:09.159
He was in his stand and he's
in this little valley and it was

687
00:50:09.199 --> 00:50:15.639
real quiet, and this crazy scream
growl scream lets out, and it's really

688
00:50:15.719 --> 00:50:17.440
close to him. He keeps getting
closer and closer. Then he hears something

689
00:50:17.519 --> 00:50:22.159
hit the stand and then a little
furry hand reached inside of his opening of

690
00:50:22.199 --> 00:50:27.719
the stand and it was one of
those Japanese macacs. He go, they

691
00:50:27.719 --> 00:50:31.079
call them snow monkeys down there,
and there are I mean, I've getten,

692
00:50:31.320 --> 00:50:35.840
I've gotten numerous pictures that readers have
sent me of those things down there,

693
00:50:36.119 --> 00:50:38.440
sitting on fence post, a guy
at his deer feeder. One chase

694
00:50:38.519 --> 00:50:42.960
the deer off. He has like
a shot of like the deer and then

695
00:50:43.000 --> 00:50:45.480
the monkey, and then like the
monkey by hisself. And so you have

696
00:50:45.599 --> 00:50:52.199
those recis monkeys in Florida. And
I did some digging and found out about

697
00:50:52.440 --> 00:50:55.320
a place called the Chimp Farm,
and there were a couple of those that

698
00:50:55.400 --> 00:51:00.400
were in Florida that close in the
reesist monkey population an escape from there.

699
00:51:01.599 --> 00:51:06.320
What was more interesting was what in
the escape of that. It was the

700
00:51:06.360 --> 00:51:09.480
fact that they had and this doesn't
happen though they had a rangutan. They

701
00:51:09.480 --> 00:51:15.280
had gorillas and lowland gorillas, I
believe, and they had orangutans. And

702
00:51:15.840 --> 00:51:21.039
most places outside of Azia zoos they'll
get maybe a gibbon or something like that,

703
00:51:21.079 --> 00:51:24.199
but they don't get like their rings
and the gorillas, and so would

704
00:51:24.239 --> 00:51:30.360
it been possible we know people have
encountered these feral monkeys, would it be

705
00:51:30.440 --> 00:51:32.760
possible, like in Florida, for
there to have been a few of these

706
00:51:32.800 --> 00:51:39.079
out that would make a breeding populate. Actually, actually that brings up a

707
00:51:39.119 --> 00:51:44.840
point I've been saying for years,
is you look at all these failed zoos,

708
00:51:44.960 --> 00:51:47.800
You look at carnivals, you look
at NASA, you look at Peter.

709
00:51:49.000 --> 00:51:52.400
Let's go Bobo the Monkey and New
York and it moves its way through

710
00:51:52.440 --> 00:51:57.960
the Appalachian Trail, comes down to
Florida. The swamps between Florida and Texas

711
00:51:58.039 --> 00:52:01.159
are are right with these animals,
animals that shouldn't be there, but the

712
00:52:01.239 --> 00:52:06.719
conditions are right for them to thrive, and they're going to. And I'm

713
00:52:06.760 --> 00:52:09.480
not saying that every one of them
is not a Sasquatch, and I'm not

714
00:52:09.519 --> 00:52:14.559
saying every one of them has to
be. But you make the same ballid

715
00:52:14.599 --> 00:52:20.440
points are is that we've displaced animals
in such a way over the last fifty

716
00:52:20.559 --> 00:52:23.199
years in the United States, even
before fifty years in the United States.

717
00:52:23.239 --> 00:52:27.280
But I would say, like from
the Space Race to like I said,

718
00:52:27.400 --> 00:52:30.400
is like you you look at all
those places that were testing animals for different

719
00:52:30.400 --> 00:52:35.599
things and somebody let them out.
Well the company went bankrupt and they euthanized

720
00:52:35.639 --> 00:52:37.199
them. No, they didn't,
They just let them out. You know,

721
00:52:38.480 --> 00:52:42.519
we had a it was at minks, I think it was. We

722
00:52:43.039 --> 00:52:46.639
hadnk We're in a mink farm that
three thousand of them escaped. They're still

723
00:52:46.679 --> 00:52:50.400
looking for them. There's some all
over, but some of them are slowly

724
00:52:50.440 --> 00:52:55.639
moving down We're probably slowly moving down
south because the weather was better, you

725
00:52:55.679 --> 00:53:00.880
know, in ma mank or Native
any way. So they would just integrate

726
00:53:00.920 --> 00:53:05.480
to the population and give the giant
population boosts of those suckers, you know.

727
00:53:05.760 --> 00:53:08.639
Oh yeah and there. But like
like any of these animals that we

728
00:53:08.760 --> 00:53:14.239
have, we have people that come
home with a bullet constructor king kobra,

729
00:53:14.400 --> 00:53:17.000
and then mom goes, that's not
happening, and let's out in the yard.

730
00:53:17.400 --> 00:53:22.599
And then the floridas fill of cobras. Now, yeah, it gets

731
00:53:23.039 --> 00:53:25.760
it gets interesting, you know.
Like I do a lot of research on

732
00:53:25.840 --> 00:53:30.360
the black panther phenomenon and all that
as well, and I don't believe that

733
00:53:30.760 --> 00:53:36.679
I think very few panther sidings are
escaped exotics. I don't think they're established

734
00:53:36.800 --> 00:53:39.559
leopards. I don't think that a
circus train crashed. It's always a circus

735
00:53:39.639 --> 00:53:44.239
tree. Apparently the least safe place
to be is in a circus train.

736
00:53:44.320 --> 00:53:49.639
They always yeah, right in the
entire planet. And it happened to have

737
00:53:49.880 --> 00:53:52.599
a female black leopard and a male
black leopard and they could survive in the

738
00:53:52.679 --> 00:53:58.639
wild. Blah blah blah. But
the difference on the primates is you could

739
00:53:58.719 --> 00:54:05.320
have a few young chimpanzees from the
nineteen sixties that got out and still be

740
00:54:05.480 --> 00:54:09.679
alive, and they have slower reproductive
they're gonna be a lot shyer. So

741
00:54:09.800 --> 00:54:15.920
a place like the Everglades, Okoch
Swamp, other areas could definitely have and

742
00:54:16.079 --> 00:54:22.119
harbor small breeding populations of like you
know, chimps, those kind of animals.

743
00:54:22.239 --> 00:54:27.159
Arranges and you know the Mayaca eight
that Lauren Coleman had made famous in

744
00:54:27.239 --> 00:54:31.679
his post out of Mayaka in Florida. Man if I just saw that thing,

745
00:54:32.079 --> 00:54:35.239
you know, and I was in
the woods or my house or that

746
00:54:35.360 --> 00:54:38.400
lady saw that thing, I wouldn't
I wouldn't go it's a bigfoot. I

747
00:54:38.480 --> 00:54:42.119
go, my god, there's an
orangutane in the yard, you know.

748
00:54:42.639 --> 00:54:45.800
And I think maybe she did think
it was an orangutan. I don't remember

749
00:54:45.880 --> 00:54:50.079
now, but so I think you're
a great point that there's some of this

750
00:54:50.159 --> 00:54:54.320
stuff out there that's that's different and
that doesn't fit to catch all bigfoot.

751
00:54:54.480 --> 00:55:01.000
You know, all right, guys, we've reached that the show where it's

752
00:55:01.079 --> 00:55:06.920
it's come to the close, chester
final thoughts or promotions. Things you got

753
00:55:07.000 --> 00:55:09.440
going on where the folks can find
you and continue to follow you. Yeah.

00:55:09.599 --> 00:55:13.159
