Does it not strike anyone as strange, that a skeleton of anything resembling an animal the size and shape of “Big Foot” has NEVER been found?

Not even ONE!..... NEVER!..... Anywhere on the planet!

Yet — folks still believe....
These folks must have such awful lives that they create a fantasy to experience....

It is strange that no skeleton has been found. But it’s equally strange that so many people claim to have seen Bigfoot. Are they ALL lying, confused, or delusional?

The late Grover Krantz:

“The most common question asked by skeptics is, ‘If the sasquatch exists, why don’t we find its bones?’ If it is a viable species consisting of thousands of individuals, then dozens of them are certainly dying every year. Most people think this means that someone should stumble across one of their skeletons now and then. Our museums are full of the skeletons of other animals, why not this one? No wildlife biologists will ask this question because they all know the answer... Most animal deaths may be divided into two categories, abrupt and delayed, with only a few questions in between. An abrupt death is when the animal is killed by a predator or by another natural event... A delayed death is when the animal succumbs to old age, starvation, or illness; in this case the individual can and will carefully choose the place where its death occurs... They are then quickly reduced to skeletons by carrion eaters of all sizes, from mammals to microbes. Carnivores’ bones will end up hidden under a cover of vegetation... they are almost never seen in nature. I have yet to meet anyone who has found the remains of a bear that was not killed by human activity. (A self-proclaimed naturalist once told me that he finds puma skeletons frequently; if this is true, he has a skill that no field biologist even remotely approaches) ...Someone once calculated that if all the bison skeletons from the last 40,000 years were still here, the Great Plains would be thirty feet deep in stacked bone... Frequencies of footprints suggest that there are now at least a hundred bears for every one sasquatch, and dead bears are almost never found... Desirable as it may be, the discovery of the remains of a naturally dead sasquatch is about the least likely possibility of demonstrating their existence. If someone could devise a method to locate the remains of large numbers of dead bears, then perhaps some sasquatch remains will eventually be found as well.” [Big Footprints, pp 9-11]
