It is possible that there have been advanced civilizations living on earth that may or may not have been human. It is also very possibly they lived in areas that are now either covered by water or are in complete remote areas of the world and we may never find any proof of their existence. But just because humans havent found anything doesnt mean that it doesnt exist.

Well I have had the experience of seeing a unusual animal
At first your brain does some file searching.
Your looking at it but not registering what it is
In my case I also determined what I was looking at
Do you think it was a costume>

I am a deer and duck hunter. I have been in the deep woods many times, and I have never seen any deer bones or any bear bones. I guess thats proof that these animals don't exist.

- Territory, do you think an animal with such big size sasquatch is living within an area of 1 km square? They live so deep in the jungle so not many people can see them?
I am starting getting sick of people claiming seeing sasquatch here and there everyday, in Texas, in California. I am not surprised one day one of you claiming seeing sasquatch in the middle of New York.
......
It is a typical joke of Americans who never grow up, a disgrace to American.

How many deer skeletons do hunters find each year?

JUST WHAT DO YOU GET FROM CLAIMING SEEING Sasquatch? You get money fame from that? You get lovers?

"The Lakota, or western Sioux, call Bigfoot Chiye-tanka (Chiha-tanka in Dakota or eastern Sioux); "chiye" means "elder brother" and "tanka" means "great" or "big". In English, though, the Sioux usually call him "the big man".
Bigfoot, or as it's often called in Canada, the Sasquatch, is mentioned in several native American legends. In fact, the term "Sasquatch" is Indian for "hairy giant." The first sighting of a Sasquatch by a white man apparently came in 1811 near what now is the town of Jasper, Alberta Canada. A trader named David Thompson found some strange footprints, fourteen inches long and eight inches wide, with four toes, in the snow.
The Cherokees from the eastern United States call him Stoneclad, "The Stone Man", or Kecleh-Kudleh, pronounced Chickly Cudly, which means hairy man. The Shoshone refer to Bigfoot as Tso'apittse, which means Cannibal Giant. The Lakota and Dakota Sioux both use similar terms to describe this creature, both of these terms (Chiye tanka and Chiha tanka) translate to mean "Big Elder Brother." The Pullayup-Nisqually Indians use the terms Tsiatko or "Spear" and Seatco, Steta'l, "Spirit Spear" to describe Bigfoot-like creatures, while the Shoshone and Salishan-Sahaptin tribes call them Cannibal Giants. Bigfoot is known by the Hupa Indians of Northern California as tintah-k'iwungxoya'n.

They bury thier Dead guys and do it well... they are Neanderthal man 30,000 years adapted... the last of them learned to survive by hiding from humans... with thousands of years to adapt they got darn good at it...
No joke, they live in caves, they hide all traces of themselves...the ones that survived were the harrier ones...less human looking, less likely to attract attention, they teach thier young, they bury the dead or something similar, gave up human skills in rebellion to out atrocities..fire and art went away because it brought us around...
They are smart enough to know the appearance frightens us like an animal and they prefer to live a more natural life by nature anyway... they hide in caves and often make thier own burrows, when they are done they cover everything and mark it with other animal scents, particularly adept at making burrows and caves look like they were inhabited by bears...or other animals
The awnser to bigfoor is obvious... they are our cousins and we killed so many they learned to hide from us... they have to be intelligent to eveade us... it's a skill taught from childhood, they spend 90% of thier lives under ground probably have knowledge of extensive cave systems we never taped before... travel from region to region and remain very few in number...
But they are smart
Interesting hypothesis -and I tend to agree with some of it - the burial for instance. But where did you come by the other info? What sources exactly? Just curious really...

Do you think BF somehow knows when Hunting season begins?
My thoughts are yes.
If they have been able to elude capture all these years, I would suspect a great deal of intelligence from these creatures, thus a nice grasp on common sense.

Thank you Paresthesia for having some sense. Dead things don't survive long in the wild. They are usually devoured within days of their death.

jimbo999, Yes, animals 'know' many things, and fear man. There is some indications that many animals are telepathic to some degree.
On the subject of hunting. Hunting for sport is the wanton slaughter of a life form to no real purpose except personal gratification. Hunting for food is not in that same class.
Many Native people will tell you that animals 'give' themselves to the hunter, that this is the wheel of life. I have taken animals for food for many years, yet I haven't a single trophy. I am thankful that this life was given to me that I might live, and when it is my time to pass from this realm, I hope to have as good of a reason, and the courage to face the fact as well.
Before you condemn all hunters, know that there are great differences among them. Know too that some hunters hold their prey in high esteem.
