Russian Research | Part 3 | Major General Mikhail Stephanovitch Topilski

While it was not research, the Russian army and this officer had an extraordinary encounter with a creature called Almasty. There seem to be several versions of what happened in 1925 and I will tell them all.

Major General Mikhail Stephanovitch Topilski was the commander of a cavalry regiment in the Red Army during the Civil War after the Communist Revolution of 1917. In 1925, he and his men were given the task of hunting down anti-Communist forces in the Pamir Mountains southwest of the Tien Shan. They encountered more than just fighting men.

Russian Research | Part 2

Many independent researchers made their way into the remote areas of Russia; some with the intention of studying the strange man-like, hairy creatures, and others who ran across them while traveling or while conducting their other research.

K.A. Satunin was a leading student of vertebrates in the Caucasus. He had an accidental encounter in the Talyish Mountains. He discovered a female "Biaban-Guli", which was the name used by the southern Caucasus people. When he reached a nearby settlement, he tried to obtain more information on these hairy, man-like animals who appeared unable to speak.

Russian Research

When most people think of the possibility of sasquatch-type creatures on the other side of the world, they immediately think of "Yeti." However, there is much more information out there by the Russians than anything from the Himalayas. The only problem is that not much of it is widely publicized in English.

There are some publications and some authors that will publish translations. And with internet programs available that will translate, if the material is on the internet, you can get some idea of what is being said.

British Bigfoot | Wildman | Woodwose

There are so many reasons people will give for Britain not being home to any Bigfoot-type creature.
NO FOSSIL BASED EVIDENCE. NO BONES. NO LIVE OR DEAD SPECIMENS. HABITAT.

Hmmm. Those all sound familiar. Let's see, we (well, most of us) will agree that there appears to be a large, hairy man-beast living in North America  and we can list:

Rant: Why Are There No Clear Videos or Photos of Bigfoot?

RANT the first.

Did a lot of soul-searching before writing this post. It is one of the most difficult I have done. But I can stay silent no longer. So here it is - My Rant.

A common cry: "Why are there no clear videos or photos of bigfoot?"

Yeah, I get that. We are all tired of the Shadowsquatch, the Blobsquatch, the Stumpsquatch, the Brushsquatch, the Groupsquatch. Somedays it can just make us scream with frustration. We enlarge, we enhance, we manipulate and we squint in despair at many of these photos and videos before shaking our heads and moving on.

I'm a Believer

Thinking about how people express themselves concerning Sasquatch got the song "I'm a Believer" running through my mind. Neil Diamond wrote it and the Monkees made it a hit.

Respecting Nature

It's a topic on all the forums and in all the groups; a popular subject for memes. Respect Nature. So let's have a talk about that as the unofficial "Official Research Season" seems to be starting.

First off, it's not a bad thing to have enthusiasm when you go out searching. But along with that eagerness is the accountability you should also take with you. I always liked the advice given in Jurassic Park II on how to be on the island and observe the dinosaurs but leave no trace.

South Weber, Utah Bigfoot Sighting

Ronald Smith finished work and drove home like any other work day. He got home at around 12:20 a.m. and as usual, went out to feed his horse. And that's when the "usual" ended.

When he got out to the pasture, the horse wouldn't come to the fence. So he resigned himself to going into the pasture to feed him. That was when he heard something in the dark, walking on two legs through the snow. Knowing that only his horse should be out there, he concluded there were some kids up to mischief.

The Jersey Devil

I don't like to go off bigfoot topics very often on here. But with my recent post on the Pine Barrens and sightings of bigfoot there, some questions and confusion on the Jersey Devil have occurred. So, today we relate some history of the Jersey Devil and stories of encounters with it and other more recent experiences that could be either it or bigfoot-related.

The Adlet

Dogman is a popular discussion point lately, and I have commented several times, that although I remain on the fence on this topic, I am very aware of legends and stories that discuss the existence of "man-wolf" creatures.

And so comes one of those tales. This particular one concerns the story of the Adlet. Or sometimes referred to as Erqiglet. These legends are most often told among the Inuit of Greenland and the Labrador and Hudson Bay coasts.

The Stonish Giant -- Mountain Monsters Style

Time for another Mountain Monsters bigfoot. This one comes from season four. The Stonish Giant of Hamilton County, Ohio.

Once again the AIMS team plunged into Native American legends to find a name for a bigfoot to hunt. There are many stories of giants, hairy men, giant hairy men, and other various hair-covered creatures in Native legends. The Stonish Giant, as far as I can tell, is a legend of giant men and not necessarily hair covered.

There are similar stories of Stonish Giants told in several different tribes. A common theme is they were an ancient tribe that lived in the wilderness. It is said that they would roll in the mud or sand, covering their bodies. They would then let it dry, forming a second skin on them, making them resemble stone. And so the name, Stonish Giants.

Faking It with a Gorilla Suit

There is a lot of talk in the community about faking videos of bigfoot by renting or buying a gorilla or monkey suit and parading around in front of a camera. Well, let's see what someone who tried such a stunt has to say about it.

To set the scene, The Memorial Day Footage was filmed back in May 1996 by the Pate family in the Paysaten Wilderness area, Washington state. A track star was brought in to run the route that the alleged bigfoot traveled. The track star was found to be both larger and faster than the creature in the original video. Many declared the film a hoax.

Reports of Bigfoot Underwater or of Sasquatch Swimming

Stories of a bigfoot swimming intrigue me. Animals built like a gorilla don't look to be the aquatic type. So, I would have to echo John Green and say it's not reasonable to make up this type of creature and then put it in water.

So let's take a look at a few stories of bigfoot and water.

Highway 99, Rockaway, Oregon Bigfoot Sighting

One of my favorite stories.

A man reported that back in 1947, he and his wife were driving down Highway 99, south of Shasta, California, coming from San Francisco. It was spring and in the afternoon. Back in 1947, this road was not a super highway.

As his car rounded a curve in the road, he saw a tall object beside the blacktop. Thinking this may be a post announcing part of the road being washed out, he slowed to a stop to look things over. Neither he nor his wife could see anything wrong with the road. Just as he was ready to continue down the road, the "post" stepped out into the middle of the blacktop. It started to cross but then angled its path to approach the car.

How To Hunt a Yeti

Kathmandu regulations on hunting a Yeti. It came up in a discussion. So here is the rest of the story.

This appears to have first surfaced with the Tom Slick expedition into Nepal for the search for evidence of the yeti. The Russians were screaming it was a U.S. government spy expedition and that we were trying to find the yeti in order to
find information for use by our military. (That is another story for another time. Way too long to go into right now.)

John Green Revisited

While looking through my piles of notes and books and notebooks full of ideas and all, I ran across this statement by John Green. So today, I turn my post over to Mr. John Green.

Tracking Bigfoot

"Much of what is learned about mammals in the wild comes from the stories that can be read from their tracks and other sign." -- Dr. Jim Halfpenny, renowned wildlife tracker.
 
Being able to tell a human footprint from a bigfoot print from a hoax, is an important skill to gain or perfect for any researcher. When examing a track or a cast, Dr. Jeff Meldrum looks at three major points: Toe movement, midfoot flexibility, and pressure ridges.

Wildman of the Colville Indians

Sasquatch/bigfoot is referred to by several different names among the tribes comprising the Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation. But he is always considered to be a human being, members of their own species.

The Lake Band called him Skanicum or Stick Indian. They believed that Skanicum could turn himself into a tree. The following story explains why.

Sasquatch Widow

Today's post isn't for the bigfoot enthusiast. Instead, it's for the non-believing partner a lot of us have. It's for the Sasquatch Widow.

It's for the people out there who are finding themselves living on their own during the weekend excursions and conferences, evenings, camping trips, and all those things that seem to center around some mysterious furry thing. And you wonder why.

What Do I Believe?

Where do I stand on the subject of Bigfoot / Dogman / Skunk Ape / Government Coverup / Government Conspiracy / Mothman / Loch Ness Monster / ChemTrails / Coffee vs tea / Chocolate or Vanilla / Pineapple on pizza ................ Oh well, you get the idea.

Ah, where to start?

Pineapple on pizza: Yes. Along with crumbled bacon and ham. Hawaiian pizza, coal baked by Tony Sacco's. One of the best.
