You ever heard of the Coelocanth? Was supposedly extinct millions and millions of years ago. We had fossils and nothing more. In the early 1900s one was caught off the coast of S. Africa. Now, they have filmed a breeding population at great depths in the same area. I'm not saying Bigfoot or Loch Ness are real, but I woulnd't say they are surely BS because we haven't found one yet.

Well....find a bigfoot or nessie fossil, skeleton, or scat, and you'll have something more than a false equivalence :-) [Reply]

Sure, easier said than done. Everyone knows that Bigfoots are really private about going #2.
No one has seen a bigfoots shit in the woods, mostly because they're like women and want you to believe that they don't actually shit. [Reply]

We don't even have fossils of a creature that is supposedly alive and well with a breeding population in some of the most non-remote states in the country.
Having physical, no bullshit, proof of something existing at one point in time but just not seeing one alive in so many years and then labeling it extinct, only to find out later there is very small population still alive is one thing. There was a show on called Extinct or Alive and IIRC that guy has an episode where he finds a species of monkey that was believed to be extinct.
We have nothing but a single video from a couple of guys with shady backgrounds that went out and on the first night of searching found the holy grail of bigfoot footage and recorded a large bipedal ape with no ass crack walking across a dry river bed. Other than that it's bonfire stories and footprint "evidence."
We also know that bigfoot is so smart that they avoid trail cameras because they know what they are without having any knowledge of the technology. We know what they eat without having a single sample of feces. We know they follow power lines when traveling but can't get a picture of one. We know they can mimic the sound of many known calls of animals that we know do exist without actually believing the call is coming from the existing animal. All that we know about an animal we don't know about is fascinating. [Reply]
