The other day as I was going through a drive thru, I was asked about the Oklahoma Bigfoot Symposium, unless we have another major pandemic outbreak, we will be having it the second weekend of March, 2022 at CC Camp. Another question that was asked, was ‘What is Bigfoot?”
This is a very good question that unfortunately falls into speculation on the part of researchers, as it will only take a body on a slab to prove what Bigfoot really is. We need a type specimen to prove it once and for all.
The theories about Bigfoot go the entire spectrum, to an undiscovered species of primate, perhaps feral humans, to even space alien’s pets that got dumped off on earth because they couldn’t keep taking care of them.
During the time of the Bering Land Bridge, it has been speculated that Bigfoot crossed over from Asia to the North American Continent and is a descendent of a giant ape called Gigantopithecus Blacki that has been identified from a few fragments of jawbone and teeth that once lived in the area of China. While this has some factual basis for the theory as humans also migrated to North America over the land bridge, we only have speculation and assumptions for this theory.
The feral human, or even that Bigfoot is a human also doesn’t hold much actual weight to the theory, as our closet living relative on the animal family charts is the Chimpanzee and it doesn’t have but a few traits similar to humans. Many researchers who have had encounters with Bigfoot, will admit there are some similarities between Bigfoot and Human, but for the most part, it’s not enough to correctly claim that Bigfoot is some kind of human.
And then we have aliens in the mix, that Bigfoot is some kind of pet that was brought to earth by aliens and dumped off, or brought to do a specific mission. There is now physical proof to back this theory up, outside of some very active imaginations.
For my part, I consider Bigfoot to be a big screaming monkey with an above average intelligence to know that they have to avoid humans to stay alive. While others in the community have their beliefs, the Bigfoot I have encountered are big hairy primates, and resemble gorillas in the zoos more than they resemble humans.
If you can come to the Symposium, you will see information that supports the primate theory than any other theory, and one day when the body of a Bigfoot is brought in and the scientists can prove one way or another what Bigfoot really is, we can only speculate and assume what it is.
