I just said this to my girlfriend! I grew up in Collier County and have spent alot of time in the woods. I believe I saw one around 1995 while on and Indian reservation off 41. I won't go into detail but I'm getting very curious about what I saw along with 2 or 3 Indian kids seeing the same thing.

Certainly a possibility! In this case we were in a pretty remote area, the chances of somebody else being out there was pretty slim.

Try gearing up with camo instead of light colored clothes - On a decently moonlit night, you can see a white shirt for 100+ yds through the woods. Be stealthy and quiet like a hunter chasing after life sustaining game. Be the 1st to find one!!!

[@UntrackedProductions]

Totally agree, and I would do it regardless, but I have a feeling they are so hyper aware of who and what is in their territory that it probably doesn't really matter. My hypothesis about the lack of success with game cameras is simply that they're watching you put them up, and the lense looks like an eye so they avoid them.

[@erikrhafer6644]

The don't miss a thing, I think is almost or nearly impossible to sneak around without them seeing you. Very few encounters are one just walking by a hunter and not seeing them. But it does happen ?

And cover yourself in dirt like wolves and dogs do before they hunt. Don’t use any detergent when washing the clothes your gonna wear for a few loads and hang outside two weeks prior to the hunt. Also, make sure your guns are clean of any oils or solvents. Don’t bring anything with extremely tight tolerances that can’t get dirty. A well worn in 1911 and a 30-6 or a 45 long colt in a .410 pump. 12 gauge pump. Everglades isn’t nice to hunting equipment. And I always bring my Ontario G.I. Machete in the glades.

A friend of mine who is a Seminole. Said his grandparents had stories of the "Wildman" and encounters back in the 1970's. They are said to be much more aggressive than the pacific north west counterparts. You don't want to be in the swamp at night.

Well I do mushroom and wild ginseng hunting and I have a certain place I have gone for years recently I walked in and the forest went completely silent nothing moving or birds chirping. I heard trees fall with no wind I heard something walking in the distance. I'm a very curious person so I walked toward the sound and I got probably 50 yards from where I heard the foot steps and I seen a big huge creature it was white and black fur or hair. I didn't smell a skunkie smell I smelled real bad body odor very strong smell. It was I think 7 foot maybe 8 foot. Now I'm not the type of person to run from anything in the forest. I didn't run I took a step back but I stood there and it was behind a small tree peeping around looking at me. I just stood there trying to get a better look at what it exactly was. It then turned and walked away and the crazy and really spooky think was there were two more like back up for it. Crazy to think there were that many in one area. Now I still go there and I hunt for the mushrooms and ginseng to this day and you can hear them getting in position guess. These creatures are smarter faster and more than capable to take us out. I believe there a family of bigfoots in this area. No one believes this I told a few people but I got laughed at. This was last year when this happened it was August 2021 and I'll be going back in April looking for morels. Their there and they are real I even thought about putting it on youtube I may do it what do you think

These guys have got to be actors, why do they keep trying the same things over and over again and expecting different results? For example, If tree knocking is they’re form of communication, why would they react to you walking around and randomly hitting trees? They would probably know instantly that it doesn’t sound right and that’s why that never works. If they do a little more research and start taking it seriously is when I’ll help fund the cause. It’s entertaining to watch but definitely seems like a scam for money.

[@ChrisLMeyer-gw1cl]

My Wife and I recently had what I suspect was a Big Foot encounter. I say "suspect" because whatever it was stayed between 100 - 150 yds away from us and it was tough to get a clear look. It was definitely a bipedal, animate, very dark object that followed us as we pedaled by the wooded area on our bikes. I was able to snap 3 decent cell phone pics and 1 decent video of it. I am puzzled as to what the creature was, but keep coming back to a kid or man in a suit waiting for someone on the bike trail to notice him. I have been following Big Foot evidence and sightings for years, looking for one piece of solid evidence but unfortunately never seem to find it. The evidence seems to be limited to sightings, broken trees, a few tracks here and there and howling etc... With game cams & drones being so easy to setup and cheap to operate, why on earth has no one been able to get a pic of a Big Foot?

[@RResidentAlienNN]

Chris they know exactly what cameras are. That includes trail cams. They can pick up on scent and I'm certain they can tell when something has been disturbed like humans walking in the area, considering they are extremely good at concealment. As far as drones go, same rule applies dude. The camera, regardless of HD quality, is going to try and focus on the first and closest object it sees. When you add into that a bunch of other objects on the ground that are the same colors and thick, you're going to get blurry, not so clear footage of anything moving down there. Especially considering they are more intelligent then deer or other run of the mill animals inhabiting the area. You dont see any drone footage of Florida Panthers either in the wild. Or bear. Or really any other animal that is predatory by nature and makes its living by concealing itself.

[@RResidentAlienNN]

Its commonplace today that people who have these things around their houses or farms that dont want them there creeping around livestock and whatever else they are doing, will set up cameras all around the house and any other areas on the property they dont want them around. It's like bug repellant. If you're trying to get evidence of one, the last thing you'd want to do is put up trail cameras or infrared cameras because for some unknown reason, they seem to always know where they are and they will not go anywhere near them.

[@RResidentAlienNN]

I'd be really interested to see your video footage and pics. You should post them on your channel or send them into steve at howtohunt. Even if you think it's a waste of time, would love to see what you have.

I have a suggestion for a new approach to finding and filming sasquatch. It's something I doubt anyone has ever tried... I know it may seem gross or just insane but bare with me.. Seduction. You'll need a brave beauty whose ovulating and hasn't showered in at least half a week so she's got strong, overpowering pheromones. She'll need to be muscular attractive with unbrushed long hair, have unshaven underarms (she'll need to display the underarm hair) , no deodorant. Set up all sorts of trail cams. Thermals, panoramic, etc.. put a couple guys with her with tranq guns and just camp out. My guess is 10/10 you'll get an overly curious teenage sasquatch who can't resist the pheromones, even if they're not sqautch pheromones, they're likely similar, and hormonal drive is nature's number 1 motivator. Good luck and godspeed. You're welcome. 😁

Excellent doc, as always! Love the panther track find and the woodknocking segment! If you listen closely, at 57:04, there is a possible, distant knock response to Aleks' two power knocks. Use headphones! And, at 1:01:09, after Tate does his loud woodknock, there is a "wooo" vocal. Not sure if it's an owl or something else. Again, use headphones.

[@DarronMoe]

Why do you refer to their 'feeler' knocks as (power knocks) & (loud woodknock) ? I'm new to this thing, wondering if these are specific types of knocks they use for different reactions?

[@g3ckoizlethal]

@@DarronMoe Well, those knocks are pretty, similar, honestly. I guess you could put both of those in the same category (loud/power). But, yeah, I was just talking about the force of the knocks, as opposed to a simple tap. Actually, the more force/ferocity you put into the knock, it may give the signal of urgent or anguish, as opposed to something, calming. Not to mention, the tone/beat of the knocks themselves. If you do fast knocks, as opposed to slow ones, if theres Sasquatch in the area, they may not want to respond. However, as I heard in the video, I believe there were responses and if they were from Sasquatch, they did single knocks back. Ive personally, heard single and multiple knocks, before, but not fast/forceful ones. They were rather, slow/calm. I dont know who was doing the knocks, but they were done, during the night/early morning hours, so who knows. I cant say they were from a Bigfoot, but I dont know who's doing woodknocks at 3am in the morning, unless, they were a researcher, I guess. But, yes, there's def variations in the types of knocks, as well as how many. We dont even know what we're putting out there, when we do a knock.

You guys went to all the wrong spots in Florida, the Skunk Apes are north of where yall were but south of Ocala. They thrive in the forrests that surround Lake Okeechobee. They don't live in the swamps they prefer the small stretches of forrests that border the lake and swamps, as well as the conservation land to the east of the lake. And they don't live in the open, they're always found in woods that are seperated by a canal. They use canals and waterways as their fence to keep them safe and hidden from humans. I was never a bigfoot guy, until I stumbled across them last year...I know where two "troops" or clans live near me and i see them nearly everytime i go to these two spots. I'd be happy to take yall there if you dont reveal the location publicly.

Yall need to go to the skunk ape festival in ochopee fl. It was a dang good time thats for sure. Its on the edge of big cypress reservation. Its at a place called trail lakes campground. They have a skunk ape museum. Its a pretty neat place. Its in the bfe thats for sure lol stumbled across the place on accident looking for somewhere to camp while going down there fishing in chokoloskee. We didn know the event was happening or that there was a skunk ape museum and were in line thinking why is there a line 30 min long to pull in the campgrund and then somebody in a bigfoot costume or should i say skunk ape walked by us and everyone in the truck looked at each other like where tf did we end up. Not gonna lie def could smell pot the whole time there. So needless to say we finally found the perfect campsite lol 😂 definitely have plans on going back. Only live 2 hours from there in highlands county in central fl.

[@axeflboi]

Lol I hadn't gotten that far in the video yet. Figured yall would've had to end up there eventually lol

If he's only got 4 toes, can he still be called a BIGFOOT? 🤣

[@ukspankedyank]

[@altha-rf1et]

I've seen them down here a few times born an raised in southwest FL.

[@lpcookie1]

I heard it wasnt called the Skunk Ape bc of it's smell, but bc of how it looks. It supposedly has a stripe down it's back.

[@stephenspark9358]

I thought it was because it smoked skunk weed

Awesome video guys

[@RetLEO]

At timestamp 26, the music being played is by who? I heard this song a long time ago and it brings back memories. Just curious. Oh, thanks for this series, Aleksander, the filming is quite wonderful!

[@RetLEO]

Answered my own question. Giant Pot by Assaf Ayalon

[@Matthew-wn8oq]

Just a suggestion but you might want to upgrade that 9mm bb gun you tote around.

[@1jimif]

A ladder stand is a necessity to see any distance in south Florida. There are not enough climb able trees, without one. Dave at the skunk ape research place mentioned this in a video I watched right before this one. Yeah you probably already knew this, but thought I should mention it. Seems like you guys bought the proper boots, so maybe next trip a ladder stand could make a huge difference for spotting with that cool infrared scope yall have...peace...Jim

[@BigfootAnon]

Good work

[@lifesadventureskeepingitre1180]

Never knock on trees. Can tell their beginners. Good video over all.

[@eric-de4uv]

I've camped many times in Mitchell's landing nothing ever seen. Go to MM 63 hike north,that's where we heard some weird things in the day time too. You should of talked to Lucky cole on loop road

[@WKF561]

What is the link to that map, can not find it. Can someone please post map link.....thanks !

[@altha-rf1et]

Good Video first time viewer, Live in the Tampa area was supposed to be a sighting near here on one news clip they say is as an escape ape from a zoo but this Bigfoot been around for a long time or other bigfoot like you said way back with the Indians, The area was in lecctuce head Park near Tampa but there is the Hillsbrough County State Park near by which is real big area for a Bigfoot to hid

[@northwestolympics3001]

Carefull film I need in national parks. Hate to see those nice cameras taken.

[@jasonhricovsky3523]
