Hi Fuzzy,
Your defense of an organization driven by their exalted leaders immense ego kinda makes me feel all “Fuzzy” Inside.
Seriously; as I already mentioned, I have first hand dealings with the BRFO. I was banned from their site because I suggested that their expeditions be mindful of the ever more common incidents of bear maulings and that the nessisary precautions be taken in the deep bush. I need not be instructed by the obvious, sir.
I stand proud to never have any affiliation with the BFRO and their exalted leader. I’m going out on a linb here but, as anyone that knows me will be glad to tell you “I’ve forgotton more about wildlife and the outdoors than MM will ever know.
Additionally as anyone that knows me well will tell you; I detest liars.

the reason they did not show the thermal image moving away was because it would have revealed that it was not, indeed, a bigfoot.
people, i understand the fun and excitement of a tv show like this, but you MUST remain skeptical of what you are shown. it’s a tv show for god’s sake. they have to have something evidentiary to show or no viewers, no ratings and no renewal. And they have to have a shill to drive the conversation and create some buzz about the show.

i cant believe that some one actually thought it was a good idea to give this Moneymaker a tv show. i truly believe there is something out there that hasn’t been discovered yet, i am trying to convince my wife and almost have but people like him don’t do much for my argument. How can one claim to be an expert on something that hasn’t been proven to exist? I for instance am an expert on the invisible flying squigglebloob, now prove that i am not. Can i have a tv show? first i’ll need a little advance so i can do some field research and make up some scientific facts. Please, some one get this clown off the air, he’s doing more harm than good.

The fence probably got messed up by a tree branch.

REMEMBER! Don’t ever think about turning in a claim on a damaged fence because now the insurance agencies have proof of Bigfoot doing it and he is not listed in your policy as a covered occurrence.

Don’t edit anymore of the episodes like that again. Every dude watching wanted to observe the gait of the creature exiting the meadow at the end, not cool.

There should probably be a distinction made in that the BFRO really is one of the best go-to sites for witness reports despite the recent freakout in here about Moneymaker’s character traits. The fact that they haven’t reinstated the Cryptomundo link on their home page is still a strike against them though. This isn’t the fourth grade, Matt. Man up and do the right thing for the greater good.

OOps! SORRY- that’s BFRO.net, NOT .com ~ click on the map, then your state, then clik the County, then on the Reports, and start reading.

Then start dreaming!

Opalman – “How is it [those on this program] manage to get thermal images, footprint casts and audio recordings at every expedition? All of this does nothing but discourage real research that is so badly needed.”

Well, the answer is, they don’t! Sometimes they get NOTHING, but that doesn’t make for good TV… that’s why there’s so much griping herein about the falsifications & modifications etc.

However, the BFRO DOES have a LOT of success on their Expeditions for one major reason: they have access to recent reports from everywhere, and they combine that data with their archival statistics, and they analyze that information, and then they go where the creatures are!!

Go to BFRO.com, take a look for yourself… look at your area on the map, see where reports have come from most recently, go buy several thousand dollars worth of electronic equipment and camping gear, and go where the creatures have been reported!

Piece of cake!

Right?

@ Flame821

That article was from Matt Moneymaker from the BFRO. I was just stating that if he really thought that then how can he put his name to Finding Bigfoot?

I have been to the Bridges’ property. It is perfect bigfoot habitat. What wasn’t shown is that the house overlooks a “pocket” with a clear sand bottomed stream that wanders through a mature forest. There are lots of deer and other animal life. It looks like a movie set for a story about fairies.

It is very possible that this area has been used by bigfoot for generations and they think the Bridges are trespassing. I think that since the property so perfectly fits their needs, the bf aren’t willing to give it up.

Something Mrs. Bridges didn’t include in her story was that at first she didn’t know the hand print was on the inside. It wasn’t until she was going to clean the glass on that side for a better picture that she realized it. She was very upset to learn that something hadn’t just looked inside but had opened the door and could have come in.

The Bridges are very good people. There is no doubt in my mind that their stories are real. There have been many incidents like the hand print. The one thing that hasn’t happened is the Bridges being physically harmed.
