I don't really know much yet of the Bigfoot phenomenon, but you said they found and analysed hairs of it. What did they see? Did it have DNA, could they trace or see a link with any existing known species such as apes, bears, etc?
“Genetically, the Sasquatch are a human hybrid with unambiguously modern human maternal ancestry,” reads a statement released last weekend by former veterinarian Melba T. Ketchum, the lead researcher of the study. “Researchers’ extensive DNA sequencing suggests that the legendary Sasquatch is a human relative that arose approximately 15,000 years ago.”

Everyone is going around assuming that Bigfoot can see in the same visible spectrum as we can and their eyes have the same biology. What if they can see into the infrared and maybe into the ultraviolet. What that means is that our IR game cameras are like searchlights in the night - floodlighting the area in which we want to capture them on camera. A being which is possibly not of the same makeup as we are may not have the same physiology. Their ancestors may have taken an evolutionary different path to ours or they may even come from a different place.
If you wanted to remain undetected, would you go into such a floodlit area and have your picture taken?
Nowadays there are camera modules which can take images in very low light - down to 1/10th of a lux or below I believe so why not use this kind of camera to capture bigfoot. That amount of light is probably moonlight or less. Even though the image would be grainy it would provide more proof that he is out there without having to kill one.
i believe he's a member of the spirit world, something that of a ghost or spirit creature...kinda like trolls or the puckwudgies etc.

Whatever bigfoot is, it'll be a lot closer to the 'spirit world' than the physical world. It might even be an hallucination which would make it just as interesting imo.
Gorillas suffered from ebola outbreaks and were found dead. Chimps have died from tooth decay. People get hit by cars. All of us (animals, bugs, people, fish) get killed by natural disasters. Yet our secretive friends are immune to all of these things!
Nothing that's physically real is immune to death, illness and accidents.
its a huge wild country that hasn't been fully explored! And yes why not look what we do with our dead and we are still apes!!! If they are closer to humans than other primates then they would be both intelligent and perfectly adapted to THEIR environment!!! I think that the evidence thought time from native people to modern day vids clips (noted that most are hoaxs ) but some suggest that there is a a living breathing intelligent being living out there somewhere! Of course this is my opinion and it has not been proven either way but I think there is enough evidence to warrent proper research

If they bury their dead, why don't scavengers dig them up? Why don't floods displace their bones?
Do none of the questions I've asked make you wonder?
Is there a single living thing that doesn't get ill, injured or die?

The idea that you'll find plentiful bones from things that die in the wild is just completely incorrect.

Bigfoot is apparently immune to disease, accidents, natural disasters and hunters. It also has impeccable traffic awareness that gives it a 100% success rate for avoiding accidents.

Millions live in the PNW.
yet only a small number are in traffic accidents
Every animal you mention has a stuffed example somewhere or other.
ok....how many of the millions of animals that live in that area are stuffed each year
Peaceful, secretive, immune to injury, illness, accident, cameras, natural disasters and roads. Wouldn't that make the big fella a superhero, supernatural or a Ninja Gandhi?? This is why I don't accept Bigfoot is a real creature.
