eBay’s $150K Bigfoot Hunter Id’ed

The eBay Bigfoot hunter has been identified. The $150,000 man first discussed at Boing Boing yesterday can be more fully revealed here today.

TPeterson6969 is Tim Peterson, the owner of Hawk Creek Taxidermy in Maynard, Minnesota. The business address of Hawk Creek Taxidermy & Archery is technically 12640 890 St. Avenue, Minneapolis, MN 55401 , a mere 25.4 miles from Young America.

This is public information, so I’m not sharing data that is private. Two of his 320 area code telephone numbers are public info too, but I won’t be posting those.

When asked for a comment for an interview, Tim Peterson briefly told me that he is a “big game hunting guide” for A Double J Outfitters in Buffalo, Wyoming. He claims to “have been hunting big game for 34 years” and is “experienced in the back country.”

If Tim Peterson helps you bag a Bigfoot, it is obvious he can mount it for you. He can also help you with the skull too. According to the links on his taxidermy website, it appears a relative of his, Rorri Peterson, runs Beetle My Bones Skullworks, a business preparing heads for trophy animal skulls displays.

Other than a couple skeptical comments about the Norway House Sasquatch video, Tim Peterson is relatively invisible online, as to any interests in Sasquatch. Peterson did briefly surface on a non-Bigfoot forum in 2005, so he could call the Norway House Cree First Nation Bigfoot eyewitness/videographer Bobby Clarke a “Goofball” because he didn’t go looking for tracks immediately. (As it turns out Clarke did search for tracks and found some.)

The eBay auction appears to be ending soon without any takers for Peterson’s $150,000 Bigfoot hunt.
