Sasquatch Can You Hear Me?

How does Sasquatch remain so elusive? After all these years and after all the people who chase the illusive one come up empty handed, how could this creature remain un-captured? We have very sophisticated equipment for detecting biological forms from their heat signature. We have the ability to not be within miles of the target subject. All these magical tools and Ole Sas still remains untouched and studied hands on.

From countless reports we have what seems to be a consensus that Sasquatch is not inclined to seek out humans and try to hug them or shake their hands, is this a creature of curiosity? Absolutely, have interactions taken place between humans and Sasquatch, absolutely. But overall the data would seem to say that in most cases Sasquatch just seems to vanish into the brush and is gone. How does anything be so elusive? Could it be that like other creatures it has senses that let it know we are near and using them it just slips away and moves on?

Ethology is the study of animal behavior. And in most cases those who study this field focus on animal processes rather than the animal itself. Many of you might have heard the story of Oscar the cat. Oscar would wander through a facility for dementia patients and when someone was in the process of dying, Oscar would get on their bed and sit and purr until they passed and then he would leave the room. What sense does Oscar have that tells him this person is dying? What of the many cases of animals somehow getting separated from their families by thousands of miles and somehow finding their way home? And when we talk about animals amazing sense of smell we can only try to understand just how important it is in their very existence. Some say Oscar uses his sense of smell to detect something that a dying body produces, or he uses his hearing to actually hear organs shutting down, or could it be that Oscar and other animals are tuned to life itself? Can they feel and sense the very being of life? I have a friend who is a hospice nurse and she has mentioned how a persons pet acts at the time of passing, without question, animals can sense when a person is dying.
It has been speculated that humans once had senses much more keen and powerful than we do now and we could sense events before they happened but we have lost these abilities and we have evolved into the creature we are today, dumbed down and our senses numbed by our propensity to be chemically enhanced even when we do not know we are.

I often have thought about the reports of people walking up on Sasquatch and being very close in encounters and if Sasquatch is also becoming less sensitive to its surrounding due to the poisoning of our water and air and food.

So how does this all relate to our friend Sasquatch, it relates on every level when trying to understand the illusiveness of this grand animal. Hyper smell? Hyper hearing? An unusual super sense of vibration? We do not know the answer to these questions but we do know that Like Oscar, animals have abilities in their senses that are far beyond what we have. But when discussing Sasquatch’s seemingly amazing ability to be out of sight where we think it should be in sight, maybe it is as simple as it is just a creature who can just do so..
