Dr. John Bindernagel: Sasquatch Illustrated Lecture

Posted by: Adam Davies on May 9th, 2014

This is a good talk by John Bindernagel on Bigfoot. It is in three sections. The first is on the eyewitness drawings of Bigfoot, the second part is on the footprints and the third covers skepticism and scientific aversion.

Bigfoot Biologist

Part 1 of a 3 part series. Dr. John Bindernagel, a professional wildlife biologist, uses a series of eyewitness drawings based on sasquatch observations to illustrate consistently-observed anatomical features of the sasquatch. These illustrate the differing appearance of adult males, adult females, and young adults or subadults.



Dr. John Bindernagel, a professional wildlife biologist, uses a series of photographs and casts of sasquatch tracks to illustrate a number of unique features of the sasquatch foot. He also uses photographs of lines of sasquatch tracks in snow to illustrate several unique aspects of the sasquatch gait. Crudely-fabricated “sasquatch feet,” widely-accepted as an explanation for actual sasquatch tracks, are illustrated. The inhibiting effect of such hoaxes on serious sasquatch research is acknowledged.

Dr. John Bindernagel, a professional wildlife biologist, uses a series of colorful graphs to explain why evidence for the sasquatch as an extant North American mammal has been largely ignored or dismissed by his scientific colleagues, and why the subject has been treated as scientifically taboo. He explains why his recent interest regarding the “mystery” of the sasquatch is not whether or not it exists (he is convinced it does, based on the available evidence) but why relevant scientists are unwilling to scrutinize this evidence. His colorful graphs and concise quotes illustrate some of the obstacles confronting a scientist attempting to attract the attention of his or her scientific colleagues and peers to what is largely perceived as a far-fetched discovery claim. He explains why the prolonged discovery process regarding the discovery of the North American sasquatch provides a fascinating look into the philosophy of science, a discipline which may sound boring but which can be very exciting as a long-resisted scientific discovery, such as the sasquatch, continues to unfold.

  1. edsbigfoot responds:

    Hearing he and Dr. Meldrum converse on Sasquatch on the Bigfoot North Radio show a couple weeks back was very cool.

  2. DWA responds:

    Two things.

    1. That a scientist who hasn’t seen one can be convinced based on the evidence, and offer a convincing scientific rationale, should give a thinking person pause. Unfortunately for all too many it doesn’t.

    2. The sasquatch/bear discussion appears to leave open the possibility that a person can see a bear; be convinced it’s a sasquatch; and repeat the story, with convictioin, decades later. I have heard few things I find more absurd on their face. I have seen loads of bears; and this is simply not happening. Bindernagel’s obviously just trying to show the obvious differences; but it can mislead anyone who’s not seriously thought about this.

Sorry. Comments have been closed.
