Are Bigfoot protected?

This is an interesting subject since no viable proof of the creature exists. Some counties in Florida have adopted legislation protecting the Skunk Ape. Making it illegal to hunt or kill the creature. In Texas, there are several bills awaiting approval. In King County, Washington, a 17 acre wetlands lists "Bipedus Giganticus" among the 350 protected species of plants and animal. Is this a silent recognition of Bigfoot's existence? Or is this an attempt to stifle the many reports. No legal definition of hunting a Sasquatch exists. It could be perceived that hunting would include tracking and photographing the creatures. But this in itself is a milestone in Bigfoot research. Ten years ago the very thought of protecting an alleged mythical creature would have certainly earned someone spot in the ridicule hall of fame.

Are   there   different   species   of   Sasquatch?

Are there different breeds of the elusive creature? It is certainly most possible. Many researchers believe that there are many different species of the large creatures. They are known by many different names. Yeti, Bigfoot, Sasquatch, Skunk ape, and the list goes on. There are often described marked differences in the creatures. For instance the skunk ape is reported to be smaller in height than the typical North American Bigfoot. The Yeti is believed to inhabit snow covered lands. Contrary to popular belief, the Yeti is almost always described as being reddish - brown in color and not white. It is also believed that the Yeti is a descendant of early man, and not a primate. The most important thing however is the striking similarities among the alleged different breeds. There is almost always the mention of pungent odors, screams and howls, whistles, and large footprints. The only difference noted among Sasquatch that seems to have no common elements, are the report of three - toed creatures. Theses creatures are more than often described as having "glowing" red eyes and seem to be shorter in stature than the "common" Bigfoot reports. It is very common for paranormal or telepathic activities to be associated with these three - toed creatures. Reports of "glowing lights in the woods" and ufos are commonly found in close association. In Preble county Ohio, three -toed creatures have been documented as far back as the mid 1970's. Along with a host of very strange reports. Could these creatures in fact, be some type of a being imitating the Sasquatch? Are they from another world or Astral plane? Or are they a cousin to another creature known as the Chupacabra? Only time will tell.

What is the Chupacabra?

The chupacabra, or goat sucker, is a creature mostly found in Puerto Rico. Although reports do exist from the southern U. S. The creature is described as being between 3 -5 feet tall. It is always reported to have glowing red eyes and leaves a horrible sulphur like stench. The creature is said to be covered with hair with a row of spines reaching from it's head down the middle of it's back, and sports a set of wings. It is reported that the creature walks upright, whistles, hops like a Kangaroo, and in some instances, is capable of flight. Three - toed prints are common among Chupacabra reports. The creatures allegedly feed on blood, often draining the entire blood supply from it's victim. Cattle and other livestock have been found with certain organs carefully removed. Several reports exist describing vampire -like puncture wounds on the neck. And it is the most commmon belief that they are extra-terrestrial. And the report of strange glowing lights during an encounter with the Chupacabra are common. Are they related to the three -toed Sasquatch? It is most unlikely.However there are startling similarities among the two. There are countless reports of deer kills believed to be associated with Bigfoot where the liver has been removed from the animal. In Preble County, Ohio , during an investigation of possible three - toed Bigfoot, a cow was found mutilated close by. Later a nearby resident described a visit from a "whistling Alien". The researchers involved found no connections between these events and the Sasquatch activity they were investigating. In Adams County, Ohio, a report exists detailing a week long battle with creatures who had glowing red eyes and shined strange colored lights in the woods and at their victims. Does the Chupacabra exist? I find it highly doubtful. Little evidence exists, and reports often provide few facts and details. Although some websites sport photos of some very interesting skeletal remains, no concrete evidence can be found to validate their existence.
