Big Foot Conspiracy Paper

 Sabrina Chierchio

            In Canadian and American folklore, there is a conspiracy theory that there is a Big Foot that wanders around the forests of North America. Big Foot, also known as Sasquatch, is a creature that resembles an ape. A number of video images, audio recordings, photos, visual sightings from many people, casts of massive footprints, etc. are the basis of supposed proofs of Bigfoot's presence. Thousands of people have reported to have seen a Bigfoot, usually described as a tall, muscular, ape-like human, approximately six to nine feet, covered in fur described as black, dark brown, or dark reddish, and has a foul smell. There have been claw marks in some footprint casts, making it possible that they originated from known animals such as bears, which have five toes and claws.

            In popular culture, Bigfoot has become a legend and sightings have spread throughout North America. Therefore, a variety of disputed activities potentially related to the creature have been indicated by individuals investigating the phenomena of Bigfoot or supposed eye witnesses. Some of the activities recorded involve repeated knocking sounds that objects such as rocks or logs generally referred to as "wood knocking" rock throwing, and vocalizations such as howls, moans, grunts, whistles, and even a form of language are said to make.  In addition, many people misinterpret Big Foot for other animals such as hoaxes, whereas this shows the misidentification. 

            In my opinion, I would not be surprised if Big Foot was a real thing happening in our world. Furthermore, as it is a conspiracy theory, many have different ways of thinking on this and some may believe in it and some may not believe in it. I do think that big foot is real because I had recently watched a video produced by a person named Doug Teague and there is clear evidence of  a sighting of big foot. This topic can be a very tricky one because even though there was no evidence of big foot being found, there also is no evidence that big foot does not exist. 

            As recorded by veterinarian, a DNA test was proven that Bigfoot is part-human hybrid. Last November, Texas veterinarian Melba S. Ketchum claimed to have shown that the legendary apes are partly human through a Sasquatch DNA sample. She also went so far as to demand that the state accept them as "an indigenous people and immediately protect their human and Constitutional rights." In addition, it was also stated that the government secretly removed burnt Bigfoot corpses from Mount Saint Helen's after the 1980 eruption. A few witnesses reported seeing federal helicopters carrying the burned remnants of many Sasquatches from the area after the disaster. Actually, so many of these stories were reported that finally a nearby gorge was called "Ape Canyon."

            Finally, this can be a very interesting topic to look into because there is. a debate between many people about this conspiracy. It is also a very interesting topic because many do not know that this can be happening in our world now. In conclusion, with all this evidence and conspiracy, I think that there is a Bigfoot and that people do not know it yet.
