Bigfoot: The Tale of a Sasquatch

 

Bigfoot is a well-known figure of common interest among the realists and the imaginative. He is the Chewbacca of Canada. Bigfoot has most commonly been described as being as a large and hairy, monkey or ape like, creature. He has been estimated to been anywhere from the height of 6 ½ - 10ft tall. I’m not sure how people can really estimate weight without just getting him on a scale, but he is believed to about 500 pounds, give or take. He is covered head to toe in dark brown or dark reddish hair. Witnesses have said that the creature also has large eyes, a very pronounced and large brow line, and a large, low-set forehead. They say that the top of the creatures head is rounded and crested, similar to that of the male gorilla. Bigfoot is commonly reported to have a strong, unpleasant smell by those who claim to have encountered him (Or her). The creature, as you would expect, has enormous footprints. I mean, it had to get its name from somewhere, right? Its footprints are as large as 24 inches long and 8 inches wide. While most casts have five toes — like all known apes.

            Personally, I am a strong advocate for the supernatural. I believe in many things because I don’t believe that we have explored enough of the world to actually know what exists. I have a theory that those who believe in Bigfoot are the ones who are advocates of the idea of evolution. People, typically of a more religious background, believe that things and beings were placed on this earth by God, the way he intended them to be. We all came to earth the way we are now. With evolution, all creatures came from a base creature. All of the things existing today were once of a common animal or creature. Different creatures we see today developed from necessary survival characteristics. There was a study done about different types of birds and why their beaks needed to be different lengths, though they were of the same species. It goes back to a species done by Charles Darwin on his theory of evolution. People believe that Bigfoot resides in the mountains or forests of Canada. Isn't It possible that he has been evolved into a form that would best equip him for his environment? I will stand by my belief that he is real until I am proven wrong.
