It's also fairly likely that bigfoots are real. I suspect bigfoot is so heavily covered up because if that species were studied closely, it would probably be obvious that humans were Satan's handiwork, and not the same process as for other life forms.
I've read that the soviets had a team that studied them, people in remote villages in the Caucasus would leave food for them at night, and would avoid speaking about them to the authorities to protect them. There was also an episode in ww2 where a soviet medical army doctor was called to examine this human looking dude that was covered in hair and he was basically a cave man, the couldn't understand what to do with him, it ends with the partisans killing him. Anyways, the book is "the new soviet psychic discoveries", great book in my opinion.
I made a note to get it someday. Thank you.
In my opinion, one of the most compelling evidences for the existence of bigfoot is the sheer number of reports made by normal honest people, who have no motivation to make up stories up that get them branded as crazy. (Very few of them make money from TV shows or books.)
There's also a huge gap between the credibility of the scientists. Almost all of the anti-bigfoot explanations sound ridiculous. Here are some of the most ridiculous from MonsterQuest episodes:
"It was a bear." (But bears don't walk; at best they take several unsteady steps then drop to all fours.)
"It was a man playing a prank." (So someone wanted to dress up as a big furry animal during bear season? In that episode, that bigfoot nearly got shot as a bear by mistake.)
"It was a gorilla, and you exaggerated the size." (But there are no wild gorillas in North America, so you're saying that people have seen thousands of escaped gorillas.)
"It was a dream." (What about other sightings that include footprints? I suppose people were sleepwalking and made fake bigfoot prints.)
And my personal favorite:
"Your subconscious recalled a genetic memory from the days when humans looked like bigfoots." (I could barely believe the guy suggested something so ridiculous. The footprint problem applies here too.)
In contrast, the pro-bigfoot scientists usually make sense. They track sightings and keep tons of plaster prints to tell if a new one is fake from real. They employ the scientific method, and use proper reasoning.
