It seems to be doing a good job on its own. If no one has ever came up with a body of bigfoot, then why protect it? It seems to be doing a good job on its own.

Wouldn't that bolster his case for it being a real animal and in need of protection? Are we supposed to just take his word for it? It seems a bit backward to ask for species protection, THEN make one's findings known. That isn't the way it works. He should release everything he has, let it be held to scientific scrutiny, and then let everyone decide whether it is a genuine animal that needs saving. I admire the idea behind protecting Bigfoot, but let's be realistic here. I don't think it's as easy as waving a hand and suddenly Bigfoot is protected. Is anyone really surprised that legislators would be hesitant to enact laws to protect a creature that is not documented by science and is widely seen by the public as a myth? No matter what those at this site think, that is the way it is perceived, so if Mr. Standing has this claimed undeniable video proof, I suggest he come out with it if he hopes to achieve his goals. I personally think the way this has been handled smacks of a publicity stunt and not of a person who has a genuine interest in the well being of this creature.

Could be of Royalty tho. :) Kind of like 'Bob' or 'Dave' is here in the States. Sadly, if there is no record of the number belonging to him, it could just be coincidence. What I do find concerning is that he peititions for protection, but he won't even show the House of Commons his third video up front. He kind of has the cart before the horse in wanting protection before providing his alleged proof. And his first and second videos sure aren't sufficient evidence. Does he not trust his own evidence to survive the critique of wildlife experts during review? I was also under the impression that he already had his third video, but had not released it. But then I see that he is planning his third video this year at another site? I'm confused. If you read the first page of his 'so called' Peitition, it is also very ambiguous without any species classification or basic discussion thereof. I find it surprising that he uses the most adulterated slang name for the creature 'bigfoot', and has never once linked any early Canadian origination. This does not appear to be somebody who is of an academic or professional background if he is to leave out so much critical information about the species itself. Especially if he wanted to convince Canadian Parliament of their mere existence. As far as the US goes, a Canadian with his lack of credentials he's displayed, filing any such documents with so little substance, could turn everyone's research into a big joke. His is not the conduct of a professional concerned about a species, but instead someone looking for attention and to display his effrontery tactics. Besides, here in the US he has no Standing! ;) LOL Unfortunately there are many ‘Todd’s’ in Edmonton. Could be of Royalty tho. :) Kind of like ‘Bob’ or ‘Dave’ is here in the States.

Even over here in Japan, it made it on page 3 of the paper and it was treated as a legitimate news article right next to what I felt were far more pressing news stories. If publicity is what Mr. Standing wants, it worked. Groan. Glad to know I wasn’t the only one thinking that, Loren.

I think this one is so transparent that I am shocked so many "news organizations" are even giving this one any attention at all.

I would love to see big foot protected. Course I would also love to see unnecessary construction in the middle of pristine wilderness stopped. I remember one sighting, I think it was last year in Maryland, where they were building a shopping mall right up against swamp/wet lands. That is totally unnecessary, and not just for the environment, but this country has gone so crazy with shopping that they will build huge malls on top of swamp land. I've worked in 3 or 4 of these around the country and the malls are sinking into the unsettled ground. Here's my point, the land can't handle the strain, there are so many known animals without a home now and I for one know there are many more animals to be discovered, especially in the wooded or swampy areas. If Big Foot is living in a swamp, it's because the number of people passing thru there is low. They like it that way. It is kinda too bad that there’s possibility of fraud here.

Right below the title is a small note that says, "Posted by" followed in green by the poster's name and date of posting. Loren's name may be the one we're most familiar with due to his books and all, but the other researchers are excellent, too. Just take a moment to look under the title before you click on it to see who posted it. Yes, let’s give credit where credit is due.

He was just a guy with a camera and a cheap monkey suit. He is no expert, what serious research has he done? What books has he written? When will people see they are just wasting there time with this guy? Todd Standing been given more coverage than a hoaxer should. He was just a guy with a camera and a cheap monkey suit.
