I may jest at times, but I do take this subject seroiusly. That night in my OP, I got close to something.
On the caliber choice, a .22 short is plenty, so long as you have your fat buddy along with you. One in the knee then run like blazes. Nuff said.
There's definitely one in Russia in the ural mountains. Something ripped apart and didn't eat 6 scientists looking for a Bigfoot i believe it was in 1952.
Indians have been here for thousands of years and white men for 400 years, and you're gonna tell me that in all that time NOBODY has killed one! Bigfoot can't be that good! Hate to say it, but there ain't no such critter!
