One unexpected bonus of a goverment bent on slashing budgets:

Forest Service roads have washed out in many places, with no budget for repair.

Some areas are going wild again because we are not fixing those bridges and roads.

Less people, more reclaimed habitat.

I think most of the lower number of findings has something to do with the crazy weather. I’m not going to start preaching global warming–that’s actually old news for me, but I do believe it will effect both humans doing the sighting, as well as the Sasquatches out there just trying to survive. Of course it doesn’t help that much of their habitat is gone. Here in California, the construction and real estate businesses have been just horrible. Rent is way to high along the ocean so everyone moves into the foothills and mountains. Again, I think the one thing established about Big Foot is that they like to be left alone. On occasional encounters, they might be more curious than the humans, but still cautious. On other sites dedicated to Big Foot, I have read about encounters in places 10 to 20 years ago where then it was mostly open foothills, but now the area looks like downtown L.A. I also wouldn’t be surprised if the growth in human population hasn’t pushed Big Foot to the farthest points possible up mountains and desolated forests. That would mean 2 reasons they haven’t been seen: 1) they finally found someplace people will leave them alone or 2) They are endangered. Pushed up into areas not too hospitable for something that large. They have always seemed to be intelligent enough to find the easiest food, but if they are forced up where there isn’t much, well…

Or after watching our fascination with its footprints, and noting the growing human traffic in those areas, caught on; each generation now careful not to leave clear prints.

Maybe with all the big feet we see on humans these days, with 18″ Nikes being the norm for the NBA, we just aren’t impressed with big footprints. Heck, now I’d think some kids from the local high school football team were just out running around.

Rick, good to see you back on Cryptomundo, and great to see you write some thought-provoking columns that can inspire a lot of discussion ad debate. I really enjoy reading your columns. It does seem that tracks are way too easy to fake these days, with the advent of the Internet, that information to fake tracks is easily accessible. Even footprints with dermal ridges are easy to fake if one has patience and ingenuity. Back 50 years ago, that information was not out there, so I would say that except for the Ray Wallace controversy, tracks were a little more credible back then. Once again, great column, Rick.
