Searching For Bigfoot: The Shooting Sequence

The Endangered Sasquatch : The Shooting Sequence

On the 12th of that same month, along another suspected sasquatch trail, Ivan and Peggy heard a crashing noise coming toward them. Saying to his wife that he thought he heard a bear coming, Ivan passed his camera to Peggy and unshouldered his rifle. She aimed her camera in the direction of the sound, commenced filming, and one sees a large sasquatch coming by leaps and bounds, almost directly toward them. It is a frightening piece of film!

Ivan's conditioned reflexes as a professional bear hunter impelled him 1.0 fire, without hardly thinking, to bring it down, lest it kill them. "I did not want to till this animal," he declares. It tumbled end over end, and then agonized on the ground, its hands on its wounds. Peggy-s film ran out, and she switched to Ivan's camera.

When the creature rose to its feet, Ivan fired at it again, to warn it away. It gave an enormous, straddling leap to behind a pile of brush, and turned turtle again. Its legs can be seen to kick spasmodically, and a white area on its scalp may be where a bullet grazed.

The frightened couple circled clockwise, seeking a better view around the brush pile. In the film one sees the creature holding a hand to a hip, where Ivan says he aimed one of his shots. Then it rises to its knees, hobbling away like a paraplegic. But then it gets to its feet and enters the bushes, and from moment to moment, through the brush, one perceives a limp at first, and it holds its left hand to a shoulder wound. Soon there is no visible limp, and it strides vigorously away. None of the frames I have had an opportunity to examine reveal its sex.

Following the awesome creature for a quarter of a mile, the couple filmed it ascending a lava ridge, its long arms f1apping in a very ape-like fashion. At the top it paused. and turned around to look back at them menacingly. Ivan told Peggy they had better get out of there, lest it come back and attack them in revenge, and they raced back to where they had dropped their pacts, and left.

The creature galloping toward Ivan and Peggy has a gorilla-like, somewhat. domed skull, as in all of Marx’s sasquatch pictures, but as it looks back at them from atop the lava ridge, the crest of its scalp can be perceived to stand up so much as to add significantly to the vertical dimension of its head, like the hackles on a dog's back. In this connection, Dian Fossey's study of mountain gorillas, published in 1983, brings out the fact that, when frightened, 'The hair on each male's headcrest stood erect (piloerection) . . . and an overpowering fear odor permeated the air.'

Fossey's essentially kind and benevolent friends have apocrine glands, underarm, that elude a strong smell when. they are under stress. Parallrlly, the smelliness of sasquatches is legendary, so much so that the Florida variety is known as the "Skunk Ape".

Fossey reports that intensive searching could not locate the cadavers of gorillas known to her to be dying, and which would have expired within a relatively circumscribed area. This detail sheds light on one of the questions frequently raised about Bigfoot, why aren't dead ones ever found? Mortally sick animals, of numerous species commonly hide themselves away as best they can.

Bigfoot sightings in unlikely suburban areas may have their explanation by analogy with Fossey's young gorillas obliged to leave home bands for want of breeding opportunities, driven away by more dominant mates. Sasquatches would follow forested mountain chains and water courses, sometimes hesitating to cross perilous streams of traffic along America's vast network of superhighways, get funneled into unusual cul-de-sacs, and misguidedly wander into suburban areas.
