Bigfoot 'scat'
• UFOs & Bogus Science
How can you picture the Bigfoot faithful gathering up piles of shit to take to a laboratory and not smile?
Members of the Pennsylvania Bigfoot Society last February searched a forested area around Guys Mills in Crawford County after an Erie resident who owns land there said he glimpsed a large creature running through the woods.
The Bigfoot Society investigators didn't spot an 8-foot-tall Sasquatch, but they did find a pile of bones and a large sampling of "scat'' that they hope to have analyzed at a laboratory. ...
[James] Adovasio [director of the Mercyhurst Archaeological Institute] said the search for the unknown and inexplicable will never end.
"We seem to want to believe in the existence of things unverified by scientific observation,'' he said. "Whether we are talking about Bigfoot or flying saucers, we are rarely content with what we can see and touch. We may stop believing in Bigfoot or the Loch Ness Monster, but there will always be something else. It seems to serve some psychological need.''
