sasquatch bigfoot

I was 11 or 12 on the first trip. My father was a battalion chief of a fire dept at the time. On the way in we had to cut two trees out of the path of the dirt road to get in which we saw as a bonus at the time as we needed fire wood. We had two camps deep in honey island swamp On the south MS LA border. There were at least 7 men per camp and two teens or young men, me and another that was a couple of years older than me. Large group of men with a extensive hunting lifestyle. We were there in squirrel season and was hunting squirrels. It was supposed to be a 7 night camping trip. It was cut short. We were deep in the wood and were rabbit shining at about 2am. All of the normal night sounds ended about a 1/4 mile from the camp. We all felt uneasy but walked for another mile at least away from the camp. The entire time the woods were entirely quiet. I remember one of the guys stopping and saying something isn't right. The group talked about it and decided to return to camp. When we got close to camp all the night wood sounds started up again.  We were all sitting around the camp fire about 30 Min's later and the men in the group was telling the others about how weird it was. The woods sounds died around our camp and 10 Min's later this chest reverberating roar came from the same trail we were on. You cant understand it unless you hear it in person. I was very scared at this time mostly because all of the grown men around me were scared. They had conversations about building the fire larger to who has buck shot. Only one guy had 12ga buckshot in his vehicle and they doled the rounds out.  It yelled twice more from differant places around the camp and you could hear it in the underbrush moving around. After a while with no yells and no movement the woods night sounds came back.  This area was a long time hunting area for these men none of them had ever encountered anything like that before. We laughed it off the next day in the way men do when they are scared and went hunting. Great day lots of squirrel but no Night time rabbit shining this time. In the early morning hours a couple of hours before sun rise it walked up behind the camp very very close and let out a yell that woke the entire camp. It circled the camp all night until day break just out of light range. Two hours after sunrise the camp was packed up and we were out of there.  Talked to my dad about it on the long drive home. He and I both had no idea what it was just that we needed to not be there. Several years later we saw a film about Bfoot and they played a yell that was supposed to be from it and it was the same thing we heard only a lot further away.
I think this is the longest post I've ever done so say what ya want to it was scary as hell to me. We did go back the next year and that trip was also cut short.

You're not alone dude.

Well I hope one don't try and get in my boat at 3 this morning . He feel funny with 14 round's of 9mm in his head . Make that 3:30 running a little slow this morning .
I will say that I heard one around 20 year's ago going to my deer stand at 3 in the morning with another guy . He was yelling a strange sound but found out later it was a pot belly pig that had got away from a guy early that year .

Bigfoot is based off fact. A real animal called giganthropithicus lived as little as 300,000 years ago. It's a big forest with plenty of places to hide. who knows if it still exists, but when people like Les Stroud claim to have encountered a Ape in the woods of Alaska, its hard not to believe that a few could still be around.

Sasquatch is the Indian word for "walking carpet".

[Flench]

All joke's a side . I did have something to kill two walker deer dog's out of a pack of eight . Never did find out what rip them to peaces .

[surfinn]

where they literally riped apart or just scratched clawed up?
I had one old guy tell me a story about his dog in north Texas. He was walking his land checking his deer feeding stations for deer sign when his dog started growling and acting agitated at something in the thicket. Dog bolted after it, he could hear a large animal moving rapidly, then he herd a large sound that he described as the sound of a large punch, meaty impact sound. He tried to recall the dog with no success and wasn't willing to go into the wood looking for it because he wasn't armed. He drove back to the house on his property to get a gun and go look for his dog. The dog was already back there laying on the front porch. It was missing its lower jaw and he had to put it down. According to him the dog had no other injury's to it.

They were ripped apart . Like something just pulled them apart . Now we are talking 150 pound gun ho dog's that are bad to the bone .
I have spent weeks at a time deep in the wood's looking for my dog's before I had tracking collar's and never herd anything out of the norm . I had some kind of cat tracking me back in the 80's I could here him scream and every time he be closer . Only time I have been scared in the wood's but not that scared . I had my trusty Browning 270 with me and a 9mm on my side . So I climbed a tree and waited for him to show but never seen or heard him again .
 Now I live right next to a huge forest . I meant my house is 50 feet from the wood's of a endless bottom and never hear anything out of the norm .

That's were a shock collar comes in .

That my friends, is bigfoot. I'm sure if the driver hooked up a rope to the bumper and tied said animal to a tree, you could literally rip it apart.



Mystery solved.
