So where exactly can we view the detailed pictures from Mr. Hiacjek’s track line?

Oh you mean a wild life documentary film maker finds a line of sasquatch tracks and didn’t document anything…oh it was the pilots fault!

Just like the skeptical enquirer says “there is an out in every story.”

I think that the only way to show that you’re actually going to find something on Monter Quest is to revisit the most interesting sites. In the case of the sasquatch activity in Canada by the remote lake, why would you not go back and set up a net of high tech cameras around the cabin area and roll! It would make more sence to find amazing evidence by revisiting the best places and working hard through creativity to actually capture something. Go back to Canada and set up the high tech net and call those squatches in! There waiting for you, and when you find them your show is going to be one of the best on television.

I saw the Monster Quest episodes on Champ, and the Bigfoot up at the Canadian cabin with Meldrum. I thought they were pretty well done. The Birdzilla was less convincing and I left it part way through. Informative and entertaining. Having read some of the posts here, it was fairly easy to spot where the shows had been “tweaked” to produce the the thrill factor Still wasn’t as bad as I thought it might be. I can watch the show and not be embarrassed or laughing my head off.

Canids - probably not the thread here to discuss it but I agree squatch-toba, these are feral dogs, or a cross between domestic and wild canids. Occasionally one may be born in a litter that is butt uglier or bulkier than the rest, but its still not a monster. There are brindled dogs that depending on light and distance, really look striped. I don’t think any of these canid reports are of a truly undiscovered species. However, There is a cultural phenomena here worth exploring; why do people think these animals are something unique or out of the ordinary or something new wholly undiscovered?

I’m not sure that these “dog like” things are all that criptic. I mean, coyotes, wolves, feral dogs, there are all sorts of ordinary animals out there account for these sightings etc… I think, personaly, that this is almost inventing a mystery that isn’t there. I can’t speak for everyone , but ,I have not seen one single report of a “dog like animal” occurance that cannot be solved by one of the above animals.. i.e., coyotes, wolves, feral dogs and even regular pet type dogs. The one exeption might be the Shunka Warakin, but it also could be nothing more than a badly stuffed wolf. I don’t mean to offend anybody who is into this type of investigation, I just don’t understand all the hype about it.
