is it time to bust out my "bigfoot is bears" photo collection again? if your mental image of a bear is a thick-furred, fat glossy male bear in autumn, you're probably not prepared for how weird their proportions can look in spring, or when walking upright, like they frequently do.
Now I'm wondering if the reason why no one posts any claimed pictures of Bigfoot showing the full Monty is because they see the creature and go, "Oh, it's just a bear", or because the bear sees them and goes, "Oh, dinner."
The dates on these photos (of starving bears?! 😢) are July and august. I'm alarmed- does it take them all summer to gain at all? Or is "bears starving to death" actually really common?
They used to shave drunk bears (not sure of the order) and put them in dresses and claim they were pig faced women because they look so humanoid when upright. Can't see it always ending well...
whoa wtf, i was just watching a thing about bigfoot on one of those anomaly channels and this looks almost identical to so much stuff on there
i think bears want to be apes so bad
All I can think of is the story my taxidermy mentor told me of one of his friends who had the cops called on him for a "body dumped in the dumpster" because a skinless, headless, clawless bear corpse looks so weirdly human.
Indigenous hot take: Bears do look like people in furry jumpsuits. But what's crazy is that Pacific Northwest Natives have lived for millenia on their lands and still have stories of bigfoot. You can't tell me they confuse lanky bears and something that cooks and kidnаps 👀
I worked for the Department of Environment in the Yukon and we would get freedom of information requests about bigfoot yearly because there was someone who believed we were part of a large cover-up.
Great pictures!
Seriously, how could anybody believe that a large primate could go unnoticed until now? Where are their bones or corpses when they die?
Every bear that I've seen in real life has looked like a stoned guy ambling around in a bear costume. I know they're actually dangerous, but it's hard to be scared of those goofy looking critters.
So the logical conclusion is that Bigfoot is smart enough to hang out in areas of high bear density to avoid detection?? Remarkable and explains a lot!
I saw the film "sasquatch sunset" last night here at sundance and it's about a family of sasquatches and shot like a nature doc. I think you will enjoy this film when it comes out in theaters.
I do think Bigfoot is bears. AND I think some Bigfoot sightings are psychological projections of unconscious material. OR it’s an unconscious projection onto the bears 🤷🏻♀️
Astonishing. And that's *before* I down eight ounces of psilocybin mushrooms and wander the woods as I am wont to do?! (I joke, but also: 'Yeah, mystery solved entirely!')
Two cryptid hunters were walking through a field.
"Look," said the first, "Bigfoot tracks!"
"No, those are Chupacabra tracks," said the second.
"No, it's Bigfoot!"
"CHUPACABRA!"
"BIGFOOT!"
They were still arguing when the train hit them.
I was quite enamored by cryptozoology as a kid and it was pretty disappointing to realize it was mostly just people who are really bad at identifying (or just generally don't know anything about) wildlife.
Bears are used as a substitute for humans in a lot of orthopedics research because the structure of their pelvis and lower spine is so similar to that of humans.
Anyone have a similar explanation for Australian Yowie (Australian Bigfoot) sightings?
(No bears in Australia... that we know of... koalas are marsupials)
i recently saw a video of a couple who filmed a video of a silvery, greyish mass moving through foliage. they claimed it couldn't have been a black bear and must've been sasquatch, cause it wasn't black. they filmed it in british columbia, the area with the highest density of leucistic black bears.
My Montanan friend said that after gutting a bear he’d never hunt them again. He claimed that they just looked too much like a human on the inside down to fingers = claws.
there's a reason in Siberia (and Ainu mosir, and likely prehistoric Korea) the bear is basically an "honorary human being" worthy of rising by the community and funerary rites / feasts...

I've never heard this before, but it makes the most sense of any explanation for Bigfoot sightings that I've ever heard.
Like, if you ever find a bear skeleton that's lost the little bones of the toes&wrists, and the skull, it's hard not to assume it's human, or at least an ape's. It's freaky.
Just posting pictures of Bigfoot and calling him “bear” isn’t going to dissuade us true believers. That’s clearly Bigfoot. I know because we are in love.
Jinkies! They DO look like Bigfoots (Bigfeets? What is grammar?)!
I gotta say that I'd be screaming "GIANT APE MAN!" if I saw something like this. No wonder people have been seeing ape-men in the woods for eons: paradolia is real, even if the effects are not.
I think many of the sightings are bears, often up on their back legs and who will walk upright for quite a spell. As they usually don't want to engage unless they are mama bears, they avoid people and will run away. It's always so odd to see them up on their back legs doing very human things!
