Starting point is 00:00:00 It sounded so mechanical and real, but once in a blue moon, it sounds like a bird. You're listening to Bigfoot Society, and I'm Jeremiah Byron. In this show, we go beyond the campfire stories to bring you firsthand encounters from people who say they've seen something impossible. From backwoods trails and remote mountain haulers to quiet farms and crowded highways, the stories come from everywhere, and each one leaves us with more questions than answers. These are the voices of the people who've lived it. So settle in because today you'll hear another account that just might change the way you see the woods forever. So stay with us. Please keep Jeremiah in your prayers as he continues his fight against cancer.
Starting point is 00:00:42 For more updates about his medical journey, please go to the Caring Bridge link in the show notes. Thank you. So I'm going to start 10 years ago in Louisiana. I had a boot camp. I'm a Navy veteran. I had a boot camp buddy of mine. out there just outside of Lafayette and an area called Abbeville. And I was actually quite a few miles away from Abbeville.
Starting point is 00:01:09 There's a state park out there called Palmetto State Park. And I was on the other side of the road, probably one to two miles down. Very underdeveloped area. The floodplain or whatever got up to or the surge or whatever they call it, got up to 10 feet out there. If you did build out there, your house had to be on stilts, and I think the minimum was 10 feet. So anyways, my, my Navy buddy was like, hey, come down here working the oil fields. If you need to, I got 10 acres. You can go out there and kind of do your own thing and get your feet set. So I lived in those kind of woody, swampy area for about two and a half months. I did a bushcraft thing and chopped down trees and paracord and kind of built this little cabin out there. And I had a dog.
Starting point is 00:02:00 He was a mutt, but he looked like a Belgian Malinua with a beagle face. And he was about 35 pounds. He was kind of like a military dog. Mentioning him because he's kind of the heart of this story. He was always on lookout. I traveled a lot. So he just had military kind of characteristics. And my little hut that I built, he would sit in the doorway and just look out all night long.
Starting point is 00:02:27 and I had a little fire on the inside. I'd be sitting to the right of him in front of my fire, my door and dog to my left. And two nights in a row, he acted like a dog I've never seen act in this way. And he would snap his head back and forth. He was looking at something outside and would snap back at me. And, I mean, it was like so fast of him looking out, back at me, out, back at me, out, back at me.
Starting point is 00:02:56 and he would start to shake. He would even give me slight, very, very quiet wines. Usually he was very aggressive, barking, going out, chasing things, growling. There are a lot of animals out there. I mean, there were porcupine, not porcupines, armadillos, raccoons, rabbits, bobcats, bears, hogs. So to see this reaction out of this dog, which I've never seen before, it kind of triggered me, but I didn't hear anything out there. A lot of times I would go out and try to scare things away with them.
Starting point is 00:03:34 But that night stood out. So the very next night, it happened again. And this time, I thought something was up. Before, the night before, I kind of just let it go. I told him to calm down. I didn't hear any noise near me, so I didn't feel like there was a threat. that this night, now I'm a little bit more kind of in tune with it because this is so strange.
Starting point is 00:04:00 And then I start hearing something bipedal walk and it sounds heavy. Now, to let you know my buddy's property had 10 acres, I was kind of set up on the edge of a clearing. And this clearing, he brought in dirt and clay. maybe it was 60 yards long by 60, 70 yards long by maybe 40 yards wide. It's not a big clearing. You wanted to put a little house there. He had a little tiny kind of pond. There was a canal.
Starting point is 00:04:30 I decided to walk out when I heard the bipedal walking, and it sounded heavy. It sounded loud. And when I came out, I only had a headlamp. And when I turned, I'm looking at a set of eyes that were yellowish green. the eyes were very far apart. I'll never forget just kind of the mental image of what would look like with these eyes so far apart. And at 30, 40 yards, I was still looking up at it.
Starting point is 00:05:00 Like I had this feeling of I'm still looking up at it. I'll never forget it. I'll never forget it. The next day I went and bought a huge flashlight because it was just so different. I mean, your whole life, you're used to human beings. a certain size and an eye distance away. And it just stood out. And I'm sitting there staring at these eyes.
Starting point is 00:05:23 My dog came out with me. He's right on my right side. We don't have a gun or anything. I actually made a spear with a big knife I had. It's all I had. And I'm staring at it. It's staring at me. And I just kind of got a weird feeling.
Starting point is 00:05:38 It was like, okay, we're going to, I looked at my dog. And I said, we're going to sit this one out. And I went right back inside. never heard it walk away. The next day I went out and tried to find tracks. Like I said, he brought in dirt and clay. It was really weird.
Starting point is 00:05:53 If it rained, it'd be super muddy tracks, of course. But when it dried, it was actually like tabletop hard, which would explain maybe why I heard it and explain why there were no tracks. I originally thought it was a bear, but bears down there are pretty small, even if they stand up, they're six foot. I'm six foot two, six foot three.
Starting point is 00:06:17 And I'd assume I would see claws if a bear stood up. At some point, Claus would have dug in, and I never found any tracks. So that's my first story. I don't know what it was. Maybe it was Bigfoot. Maybe it was something else, but it was big. It had eyes far apart. And on like an intelligence level, if it was there for two nights, the first night, it was just
Starting point is 00:06:44 kind of watching me. The second night, it wanted me to know it was there. Like I said, I never heard it walk away. So I definitely stood out as something strange. So that's kind of my first experience that opened me up. I already was into kind of the big foot possibility and there being things out there that are intelligent and stealthy. But that, that kind of opened up Pandora's box. Now, currently I am living in a truck and truck camper. I'm raising a Belgium Malinua and I've been living in the National Forest for the past a year and a half. I'm preparing this dog for Alaska. I'm moving to Alaska to buy property way out in the bush. I do plan on getting him a big brother, but he's going to be my right hand man out there.
Starting point is 00:07:33 So my journey started in Northern Idaho. This is what sparked all this in the comments because I saw Northern Idaho Bigfoot Story and I have my own. I was in San Point, Idaho. If you leave San Point and you head towards Bonner's Ferry, there's a gas station on your left, maybe three to four miles down. Right there at the gas station, if you take a left, that'll take you until you hit a dirt road, then a big kind of open area for the snowmobiles and four-wheelers to park their trails, trailers, excuse me. And then you can just ride for miles. I mean, you can take this route all the way to Corral Lane.
Starting point is 00:08:14 I mean, it takes you to other cities. It's a dirt road you can go far back on. Now, for the first, I don't know, 10 miles or so, you're along a river. Not far down the path, I would stay all the time. I'm trying to think of how to best describe it. But within two to three miles down on your right-hand side, there's going to be accesses to this river, and you'll get to one to where there's a big,
Starting point is 00:08:45 you're going to have this dirt road, rocky, bumpy, getting down and you'll get down to the river. There'll be a campsite. You'll take a right. More rocky going downhill. There'll be probably five campsites or so lined up down this river
Starting point is 00:09:02 with spacing with trees. I mean, it's a nice area. You'll know this part of the river if you explore that area because this is probably the only place that's got really kind of a long stretch of sites people can camp on. Anyways, I'm out there to the end of the summer. Everyone's back to school. There are no campers.
Starting point is 00:09:25 I'm by myself and I'm out there with my dog. And it's dusk. And I start hearing a life beacon. Now, I was in the Navy and part of my job was doing life buoy watch. We would be on the back of the ship and we were the last line in case you've, fall off where the last person has a chance of seeing you. And we also called in like surface
Starting point is 00:09:48 airships, but whatever. The point is, is I had this buoy that I'd throw off and it would start to beep. And that's what it reminded me of. So in my mind, I'm thinking someone's out there and needs help. And which is strange
Starting point is 00:10:04 because the main road to the National Forest isn't that far. I mean, it might be 50 yards from the river. And the section of men is pretty low. So when you get close to that main road, it's kind of a vertical, maybe 20 foot vertical up to the main road. And the noise, the life beacon is coming right next, it's coming from right next to the road. And as I try to find this beacon, it's a very dense kind of off the beaten path as far as the campsites go, but right next to the main road. And I'm getting
Starting point is 00:10:39 closer to it. My dog, at the time, he was probably a 10-month-old, Belgium, Malinua. He picked up on nothing. He's having a good time. He's out there sniffing around. But when I get really close, I decide to get high ground and backtrack a little bit, get on the main road and look down at whatever this is. And as I get up there, it's so dense that I can't see, and it's getting darker. So I decide, I just get the feeling that I need to go down to my truck. I have a high powered flashlight and I want to get my handgun. So it's probably a five to ten minute walk to get down and back up and I get back to that exact same spot. I swear as soon as I let my foot down and I'm right there, the life beacon. And I didn't hear it where I'm looking where it was.
Starting point is 00:11:32 A Life Beacon is now behind me across the road and possibly 50, 50 yards away. Now, this gets a little weird because there's a campsite over there that was overgrown. I mean, no one had gone through there. There was a massive, like, ditch I had to go through to camp over there. And the only reason why I camped over there is because during the summer, the river spots were full. So I'd go camp over there and honestly, I got there and I got weird vibes. There were probably six to eight trees bent over the trail. One was snapped at about 12 foot.
Starting point is 00:12:18 And it's just strange because you would have to like tie these trees off in some type of way. And this trail was just kind of covered. When I camped there, my dog would bring me antlers and like femur bus. Like he would keep bringing me bones. He would go off into the wilderness and find stuff. I heard a wood knock out there. At night, my dog would lose his mind. Something would be outside of our camper.
Starting point is 00:12:45 I tried to hike past the bent trees. And I just got really bad vibes. And I was like, no, I'm not going up this way. I'm not doing it. So I already had this weird history of this campsite. And now the beeping or the life beacon is coming from over there. And I do want to say that when I first heard this life beacon, I was recognizing the pattern shifting. It sounded so mechanical and real, but once in a blue moon, it'd sound like a bird.
Starting point is 00:13:19 Once in a blue moon, it would like beat for 20 seconds, off for 20 seconds, beat for 20 seconds, beat for 20 seconds, but I was just recognizing slight changes in the patterns. So at this point now that I'm hearing this beat over here in this area that I already got weird vibes and wood knocks, and I even saw something one morning when I pulled out of there, I assumed it was the butt of a moose. If not, it was the shoulder of something big, and it just stepped out of the way.
Starting point is 00:13:51 Anyways, that area, I just had all these weird things happen. And then, like I said, those, I was recognizing patterns being off. So I'm getting over to this campsite right where the trees are bent over. And the life beacon is right on the other side. And I decide that this isn't worth it anymore. I'm like, this is too weird. I think I'm cool with my adventures and trying to save somebody.
Starting point is 00:14:23 I guess no longer seems like someone's in need of help. It's getting too weird. and I decide to walk back. So now I come down this little trail in this campsite. I get back on the main road, walk down 20 yards, not far, and then boom, I bank a right, and then I go down this path,
Starting point is 00:14:42 and I get down to that campsite, and then you take it right to access the other campsites. As soon as I take that right, I swear to you, to my left, across the campsite that I'm turning away from in those woods, I'm hearing the life beacon. So I, in my mind, I went from tracking something to know something's tracking me. And it's letting me know that it's tracking me.
Starting point is 00:15:10 And I'm still a good little ways for my camper. I keep walking, my gun's on my hip. And my dog this whole time hasn't picked up on anything. I'm blown away at this point because how is he not picking up on this? He is young, but he actually. saved us from a mountain lion that was stalking us. So I have faith in him. It's kind of crazy.
Starting point is 00:15:34 He never picked up on anything. But anyways, I get down to my truck camper, and in my mind, I'm like, no, it might just, oh, wow, you just relax, watch a movie, and we'll go to bed. And I laid down within five minutes, I heard a scream, holler. I mean, it was like a hoop. My first thought was an owl, but it was like a hoot, holler, screams. I don't even know. And it trickled down.
Starting point is 00:16:07 It got really loud, and then it trickled down to a growl. I've been near alligators, like at that Palmetto State Park in Louisiana. I went into primitive camping. I heard alligators, and they sound like lions. I mean, they, the, my dog was shaking during that too. I mean, they, they have a depth that just, you can feel it. And it was the same thing with this, this, this, this, this, this holl or this who, whatever created this noise was massive. Absolutely massive.
Starting point is 00:16:45 And I, and it happened twice. I don't know if it was two separate ones, because the second one wasn't as loud. But it was close. And it was the exact same. It was a hoot. It was a holler. And it just slowly worked its way down to this growl. And I can't imagine it was more than 40 yards away.
Starting point is 00:17:09 I'm not going to lie, I want to meet Bigfoot. I really think it would be cool. At the same time, if I do that, I want to be fully prepared because I assume there's good ones and bad ones. And it's not worth dying over. But I think it'd be really cool. I would like a meet him, but that night, I'll tell you what, I didn't have my night vision and I didn't have anything that was large as far as weapons go. I had a 357 magnum revolver and a lever action.
Starting point is 00:17:42 And I just, I don't know. If I can't see you and I don't feel like I can defend myself, I didn't want to go out there. I actually decided to leave. and I had to go through the woods and find my dog's toys. He left everywhere that wasn't comfortable, but I got everything. I got out of there and I went to Walmart.
Starting point is 00:18:01 To be honest with you, I didn't want to. I didn't feel like they were out to get me. I mean, obviously they could have. If they are intelligent, they wanted me to leave, that was probably the best way to do it. And I will say one last thing that, I'm going to end that story, that was Northern Idaho.
Starting point is 00:18:19 But I will say about 10, miles from there, I did a work to live on a guy's property for 40 years. And I don't know if this has anything to a Bigfoot, but I just want to share it because if anyone else's experience this, it's very strange. But he had a really cool piece of property, 40 acres, probably five acres down at the bottom that were flat. And then it was all kind of mountainy. There was a little pond up top. And he had little campsites all over the place. And I'm in this place. And I'm building a five and I heard something run behind me. It was right behind me.
Starting point is 00:18:59 And I turned and nothing was there. It's probably one of the only times of my life I questioned like my sanity because it seemed so real. And I looked at my dog and he didn't pick up on it, but Belgium's are crazy. He wants to chew sticks, set it on fire. He was so into the fire. I wasn't too surprised. But then I heard a growl. I heard something growl at me.
Starting point is 00:19:26 And the funny thing is, me and my dog both looked into the direction of the growl. We both looked at each other, and then we both looked in the direction. So I realized that I wasn't crazy, and this area of his property, he had thinned out. So there was really no place to hide. I mean, it wasn't thick, like, national forests.
Starting point is 00:19:49 So I'm just throwing that out there. I don't know if anyone else has experienced anything like that, but something ran behind me, man. And then not far in front of us. I mean, if I had to guess, it was close, 20, 30 yards and heard it growl, and my dog picked up on that one. But anyways, those are experience I have, Jeremiah. I hope that helps others. And I think everybody should share. Jason, thank you for sharing those.
Starting point is 00:20:18 It's just really interesting stuff. And the one, man, I'll tell you, like the sandpoint of Idaho, when you were experiencing the life beacon beeping noises from the woods, there's really a pattern because it feels like, well, I'll ask you, do you feel like it may have been trying to get you to go further in the woods to try to figure out what was going on with that noise? So there are two thought processes here. The one is, yeah, I mean, you can imagine if a Bigfoot ever saw an injured hiker that had a beacon on it that was beeping and then saw other humans show up to save that injured human, they would mimic that.
Starting point is 00:21:13 And I've heard them mimicking screaming children. and that would draw a human immediately. It seems a bit strange because on that second beacon noise, it was drawing me away from my camper. It was drawing me farther away, which would lead me to believe ill intent. But what's strange is,
Starting point is 00:21:40 why wouldn't it, why would they make the most? I mean, I guess I got the gun, but I didn't have the gun at first. There's no one out there. It's just me. They're intelligent. I would assume they're intelligent enough that they know they can overpower me. It's a weird, it's a weird scenario.
Starting point is 00:22:07 Because then at the end of the day, the growl, it almost seems like intelligent enough to mess with your mind. Would they have drawing me out there? Okay, so I've got, I've got another part of this story that I didn't share. So I moved from Sandpoint to Big Sky, Montana, and these boys out here live in the woods. I mean, they, I mean, it's, it's big. And my one buddy, he's a Marine. He even worked for the, the Blackwater, mercenary, whatever, blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 00:22:41 He does hunting photography. He goes all over the world in films, guys, hunting. And then him and a local good old boy that grew up here in these woods were out hunting one day. And they said they heard, I'm sharing my story. And this is separate. I share my story with both of them. They didn't know about me or my story. And they both said the same thing to me because they were together that they heard the same thing.
Starting point is 00:23:10 They said they followed a life beacon for like two or three hours. when I told them that I heard this, they were like, yeah, we've heard it in the woods too. I was like, no way. I was like it sounded mechanical. It sounded like a buoy, like a life beacon or something. Like it sounded mechanical. And they were like 100%.
Starting point is 00:23:30 And it would go in intervals and we followed it for hours. So that leads me to believe that it wasn't ill intent. And maybe it's just this kind of like game for them. or kind of like a mind thing. And then the fact they growled, so I know that they were there, it seemed more, the vibe to me was,
Starting point is 00:23:56 we'd appreciate it if you left. We'll draw you out of here. We'll make you walk 10 miles following this noise to get you out of here, or we'll growl, scare you out of here, whatever. But that's another part of the story that's kind of weird,
Starting point is 00:24:11 coming to Montana, I'm six hours away. six, seven hours away from Sandpoint and Hunter's heard the same thing and followed it for hours. Yeah. That's even more interesting. And it's definitely a thing where
Starting point is 00:24:31 if I think back through all the interviews I've done, there are definitely different accounts where a person will be lured somewhere by the voice of their boyfriend. or another person's voice or a pet. There was one, actually, this is in northern Idaho as well, where a pet was, they were trying to lure a pet into the woods by, it was either the voice of the owner or someone else the pet would have known.
Starting point is 00:25:01 That was a really weird one. Then you have like the old stories of hearing the baby cries in the woods, right? And you hear a lot of those actually in Southeast Alaska. So maybe watch out for that when you're up there where, you'll hear baby cries and it's them supposedly trying to lure females into the woods to look for what's causing the baby crying in the woods and it's just it's a very interesting and and this may even be the newest iteration this this life beacon noise that's just so weird that it was experienced in two different areas of the country now have you ever heard the life beacon no no no
Starting point is 00:25:43 is the first time and I really hope that if other listeners have experienced that that they would also reach out maybe in the comments or email if you need to but that is just it is so weird yeah and it's funny how you say it's like the new iteration because as technology grows it's almost as if they're adapting to you know our ways our technology I was blown away when these boys and like the reason why I believe them, because people are, you know, people play with you. But the reason why I believe him was because I met these dudes, you know, at different times, different places.
Starting point is 00:26:25 And they didn't even know, like, they were talking as if I didn't know the other guy. They're like, yeah, my buddy, Logan, or whatever, you know, my buddy. And I'm like, yeah, he already told me the story. I'm like, that was real. I was like, y'all are, you're being real? He's like, dude, we followed it for hours. he's like it just it stayed the same distance from us it always sounded the same distance from us and we're out hunting he's like dude we're we're we're we're game we're out there and we just
Starting point is 00:26:55 kept going and eventually we stopped and we're like okay we're going to head back but it kind of makes sense it's interesting i hope i i don't know maybe you can clarify this but i heard the ones in alaska were bigger and meaner has that been so so So regarding Alaska, so there's a thing called the Bergman's rule where the further away from the equator you get, the larger the things are, the creatures are going to be. And that's why just things are bigger up there, right? Or you look at down by Florida, the skunk apes are smaller, right? Because it's closer to the equator. And, yeah, you're correct.
Starting point is 00:27:36 You have reports up there in Alaska of them being extremely large. But then you also have areas like Prince of Wales Island, which is in southeast Alaska, where there's reports of four-toed ones. And there's clans on the island where the people that live there, they think that pretty much four-toed ones are stealing people. They're the reason that people are disappearing on the island, and they're just, they're extremely aggressive. So, yeah, I would definitely agree with that. that matches up with what I've heard from different sources over the years. That's interesting. So, yeah, I plan, and the light changes up there to where it gets dark for months.
Starting point is 00:28:23 And so I plan on setting up a lot of lights and cameras. And I will be prepared to defend myself. But, like, my goal is to try to make contact. Not sure how that works. And if it's just, like, offering up of food, I plan on having at least. two to three dogs so I don't I don't want to come off aggressive but at the same time I want to be prepared for anything but I do have this part of me that wants to kind of engage when and I don't I don't hope that they're like most other animals and the reason why I've been contacted
Starting point is 00:29:04 or I've had these experiences like I tell people I joke the Bigfoot down there in Louisiana was like, look at this human, like out here fishing for catfish and building fires every night. Like, maybe he's cool. Right. Yeah. I'm also someone that's had a very weird relationship with animals my entire life, even bugs. Dude, I've had butterflies, like, land on me for like 30, 45 minutes, and I've had witnesses, and they will, like, fight everything that comes near me, a butterfly will attack every little,
Starting point is 00:29:41 other butterfly or a fly or a bee that comes near me and then come back and like land on me and start dancing. I've had carpenter bees, the big ones, multiple times. They'll come right in front of my face, like maybe six to eight inches in front of my face and just hang out there. And I'll start talking to them and then they'll start like the exact same thing as the butterfly. Anything gets near me, they'll start attacking it and protecting me. I've had them protect me for, from hornets and wasps when I'm doing like remodeling on roofs. I mean, it's crazy. Dogs that don't like anybody like me,
Starting point is 00:30:19 I've had deer come up to me. I mean, I've just had this natural thing with me. I don't know what it is. And maybe that's why the Bigfoot or whatever's happening with me, maybe that's why they're intrigued with me. Maybe I'm on a vibe that they, animals and nature vibe with. So I'm hoping I have good relations,
Starting point is 00:30:40 but I really would like to, I am going to try to connect with them if I'm in Alaska and I'm way out there. I'm going to do my best. And I don't want to harm them. I hope they don't want to harm me. But this subject is fascinating. I think the world's much bigger than society and the phones and the TV and everything that we live with. But yeah. Something that I will bring up, and I don't know, you may have a special.
Starting point is 00:31:10 specific area in Alaska already, but there's a channel that might be interesting to you if you haven't found it yet. It's Fred from subartic Alaska Sasquatch. And his thing is that he just talks to people from Alaska that have had encounters and he shares their stories on his channel. It's fascinating stuff, but he's probably the best resource we have right now for Alaska in general. And the thing is, if you go to his website, there is a, The map where he has everything mapped out, all the interviews he's ever done. And so you can see, you can really see the parts of Alaska based on his interviews where there is a ton of activity. And he might even be a good individual to reach out to.
Starting point is 00:31:56 But definitely a good place to start there would be that channel. That's cool. Do you know what part of Alaska he's in? Dillingham. I believe. Dillingham. Yeah, hold on. it out. I'm heading north. I went commercial salmon fishing two summers ago up there,
Starting point is 00:32:18 so I was all over the southeast, and oh my God, is that, every human being on the planet needs to go to Alaska. It's just a different world. It's absolutely beautiful. And it was always a dream, but I fell in love after that. But I intend on going north to start, and we'll see where I end up finding property. I got a realtor sending me property listings now. So trying to hone in on it. But I'm moving up there maybe four or five months, and then I want to put boots on the ground of any piece of property I want to get.
Starting point is 00:32:52 So hopefully within the next two years, year and a half, we'll see. I'll have my own little spot. But I'll tell you what, I wouldn't mind reaching out to him. I wouldn't mind a friend up there with some things. Yeah, I think his contact info is on his website or his channel, but man, I feel like, I feel like this that you've just shared is just the beginning of your story, man, Jason. I just, I feel like you are like right at the beginning of it. And once you get up there, it's going to get crazy, dude. That's just what I'm feeling. I think you're right. And my heart's good. And I feel like I don't have no intentions, which is big.
Starting point is 00:33:39 So I'm excited. I want to meet them. I'm sold on the idea. I was actually sold on Bigfoot being real. They may have been around that kind of Louisiana experience. But when I was doing all that research, I mean, a joke, one of the jokes in the Bigfoot community, I mean, I don't know how deep this joke goes. But it's like, it took them like 60, 70 years to find a panda bear. You know, I mean, I watched a Bigfoot documentary, and they talked about that.
Starting point is 00:34:11 I mean, it took them like 60 years to find a panda. It's like, this thing's intelligent, like a human, but has all the talents of your dog. Dude, I mean, you're never going to see this thing. You're going to see it one in a million on accident, or it's going to want you to see it. It's curious, just like you. I don't know. Yeah. I agree. I mean, it's a thing where we don't know that the abilities that it has,
Starting point is 00:34:45 has. And if you look at animals that are already out there, and I'm not saying it's an animal, but if you're looking at things that are already out there, like the octopus, for example, just the way that it can blend in with its surroundings underwater, it gets in front of a rock, and boom, it's the color of the rock and the pattern. So, I mean, there's weird stuff already out there that we know and what's to say that this guy can't do weird stuff that, you know, just boggles science. So I don't know, man. Yeah. I'm not sold on the interdimensional deal.
Starting point is 00:35:21 There's a lot of cool stories out there that probably support it. But it's not out of the realm of possibility. I'm just not sold on it yet. But like I said, that moment I had with something ran behind me. Nothing was there, and then I heard that growl. I mean, that just offered up something new. But you know what, at the end of the day, these things are apex, apex predators. The Native Americans talked about them throughout their history.
Starting point is 00:35:54 Apex predators don't just disappear. And if we would have killed them all, we would have bragged about it. So, I mean, like, if the Native Americans know of these things and they were alive during their time, there's just no way they're not alive now. There's just no way. They don't just disappear. Like I said, if we would have killed them off, we would have bragged about it. Like, I don't have any doubt, even before my experiences or right around that first one, it just doesn't make any sense.
Starting point is 00:36:23 I mean, I remember reading something that it was in the National Forest Handbooks pre-1940 or 1920 or something like that. It just seems like there's enough evidence. out there that even the government knows it would make sense that the government would hide them at some point and deny it to protect them. If everyone knew Bigfoot was real,
Starting point is 00:36:48 I think every I don't know how to say the word, but there'd be enough Americans with guns that would go out there and hunt them all year round. Yeah, it would change everything. Yeah. So, I mean, it makes sense that they wouldn't admit it, you know?
Starting point is 00:37:05 It's such a fascinating topic. And I mean, I love it. We'll never run out of people to talk to because there's always people coming forward that have waited for years. And there's always people that are just experiencing things for the first time, sometimes a day before they reach out to me, which is just incredible. But Jason, it has been just a privilege to hear your stories. And thank you for, I'm glad you're able to reach out. after I tried to reach out to you. And I really hope that you're able to maybe touch base in a few years
Starting point is 00:37:44 and really experience some cool things up there in Alaska. Yeah, man. Hey, look, I appreciate the opportunity. I hope everyone out there is their story and tries to protect them, at least the good ones, right? But anyways, Jeremiah, it was nice meeting you. It was nice talking to everybody, and you take care. and I wish everybody the best.
Starting point is 00:38:07 If you've had a Bigfoot encounter of your own, I would love to hear from you. You can send me an email with your encounter at Bigfoot Society at gmail.com. I've come out with a free report about the top 10 Bigfoot hotspots. You can go over to bit.ly forward slash BFS report. I'm Jeremiah Byron.
Starting point is 00:38:29 Thanks for listening to Bigfoot Society and I'll see you in the woods.
