(OP) User ID: 43993722 United States 01/23/2014 07:26 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I am truly amazed at how many people have seen elves. I had no idea. They must have been much more common that is recognized. Quoting: waterlily Now I feel kind of bad that I haven't seen one, all I saw was an ugly old bird. I have never seen any cryptid. I have spent a lot of time outdoors. I have fished and camped every nook and cranny in nor cal.....still haven't seen anything out of the ordinary. Reports are that habituation, with women, are giving results. Men not so much. And kids. Bigfoot creatures don't seem to trust men at all from what I've read. Most likely they were already aware of men being there so they stay out of sight not to get caught. There are pretty crazy stories in "The Locals" - [link to www.amazon.com] - I highly recommend it. You will look at Bigfoot in a different way. Yea, If I was bigfoot, I would fear Evan. |

You will look at Bigfoot in a different way. many reports show that men out camping or fishing, like that incident up in Northern Ontario, don't get into trouble until they urinate in the woods.

Women are more non-threatening to them as are children, so they are more likely to come around. When they do, apparently they are now using successful techniques to collect hair and saliva samples from bait stations.

One was a head taller than the other and both were big and stocky (They had just STEPPED over a highway fence!!!). I saw them only briefly from the left side, then the back, then the right as I could not stop quickly. My first thought was that they were in Chewbacca costumes, but it was the middle of nowhere and over 100 degrees outside. Then I saw the hair flowing on their backs as they walked and the rippling muscles in their backs and shoulders. The hair was blonde and silky and head to feet. They did not run, just strode purposefully across a field and into some low scrub trees. |

Humans may suspect something is going on but not realize its bigfoot. Most likely, young bigfoot ones will interact with young human kids.
