Cartoon Characterizes Entire Erickson Project?
Posted by: Loren Coleman on December 5th, 2011
I’m not sure what it really means, but Shawn at Bigfoot Evidence posted the following cartoon over the summer to make a statement about the entire Erickson Project. Perhaps now is a time to seriously ponder it further:
“The Big Game Hunter” by rico-xx, South African artist, Mr. Rico Schacherl.

I think what he’s getting at is that there is more of a possibility of Justin Smeja shooting an amazonian tribes woman that it was a sasquatch that he shot. This project has huge claims but masks under non disclosure agreements. There is absolutely no credibility to this study. Why not release something to keep this going, but instead, Erickson shuts his website down. This whole thing is going to come crashing down. Just recently Matt Moneymaker said that the peer reviewed paper got kicked back and that the whole thing could take a lot more time. Really? Hold on while I put my surprised face on.
I may go search for the tooth fairy because my kid had 3 dollars left under his pillow. That’s proof that the tooth fairy exists.
Don’t get me wrong, I commend people for trying to discover new things, but this topic is becoming one that anyone who touches it becomes insane.
BTW, I would bet a whole lot of money that Justin Smeja is lying and did not shoot a bigfoot at all. In my opinion his story is totally ludicrous, if you know the details he initially described.
He claimed he found the pieces of hide after to returning to the area of the “shooting” after a snow storm. He says he didn’t know if the hide was related to what he claimed he shot. To me that sounds like he’s structuring the story so he can remain blameless when the hide is shown to be from a known animal. On top of that, he mentioned that he’s got a freezer full of dead coyote parts (he hunts those too). I do suspect he cut a piece of hide from one of those dead coyotes and provided that to the people who bought into his shooting story. Here’s the red flag for that: Some folks I know spent a lot of time questioning the dude in person … One of them says that when he heard Ketchum “confirmed” that his samples came from a sasquatch, he said he thought SHE was a hustler … which seemed strange to the person he said that to. It doesn’t puzzle me at all. He would have good reason to say that if he knew the hide came from a coyote. And that’s exactly what it looked like. I saw a photo of the hide piece. I was a roughly rectangular piece of fur and skin which looked like it was cut from a larger hide. The piece in question looked like it came from the belly of a coyote. Supposedly Meldrum also said it looked like it could have come from a coyote.
