Bigfoot May Gain Protection by Canadian Parliament
According to Mr. Lake, the creature that is also known as the Sasquatch is real, and is endangered. The reason, he says that there have not been more sightings in North America of Bigfoot is because the creature is endangered, not necessarily shy like many believe.
Currently there are 516 plants and animals that are listed in the Species at Risk Act in Canada. There are many other candidates for this list that are being considered including the Whooping Crane, the Blue Whale, and Red Mulberry trees.
There have been similar motions to add Bigfoot to the Endangered Species list in the United States. Congress has refused to listen to these requests because Congress does not believe that there is solid proof to the existence of Bigfoot.
There is a lot of evidence that point to the possibility of the existence of Bigfoot. The fact that 90% of the western Provinces of Canada are uninhabited leads many to believe that there may be plants and animals living there that have yet to be discovered by modern man.
The story of Bigfoot dates back before the discovery of North America. Many Native American and Canadian tribes recorded stories about a creature that was half man and half beast that wondered around in the western States and Provinces.
The interest in Bigfoot mostly started back in 1811 when David Thompson discovered large, well-defined footprints in Jasper, Alberta, Canada. The Patterson-Gimlin Film of Bigfoot was shot on October 20, 1967. this film of the creature walking through a clearing in the woods in California has become the most popular bit of evidence for the existence of the creature.
All of the recorded sightings of Bigfoot have been greeted with speculation in the United States and Canada. All of the photos and film of Bigfoot have also been met with speculation as to whether or not the creature was real, or if a human in a suit was pictured.
It will be interesting to see if the Canadian Parliament accepts the bid to place Bigfoot of the list for protected animals and plants. If the Canadian Government takes this step, the United States Government might soon follow that lead of its northern neighbor.

Post a CommentGreat article on the Land of Bigfoot.
the bigfoot is cool.
the bigfoot is cool.
Damn. Is this for real?
I'm trying to do research for a school project here on endangered animals in Canada... I don't have time sites that might be joke sites...
Don't laugh! If bigfoot is added to the endangered species act, every development in Big Foot territory will have to prove mitigation of adverse efect to bigfoot habitat. Say, major reduction in developable land, major increase in costs and major increase in bureaucracy.
what bunch of crap, there is not such thing as bigfoot execpt for maybe the monster truck
Apparently bigfoot is highly intelligent and capable of abstract thought. According to the article, Native Americans and Canadian tribes have recorded it "wondering" about the western states and provinces. I wonder what it was wondering about.
I did a little research (thanks Daynna) on the Patterson-Gimlin film, and found that its authenticity is very highly debated among experts. While there is no evidence that it is real, there also has been no convincing proof that it is not real -- only experts positing that it COULD be faked by using X, Y, or Z technique.
A little research would have revealed that the film mentioned has already been thoroughly debunked.
Wait, is this a joke site?
Read the "Law of One" by Ra to understand about Bigfoot. There are reported to be three different species!
