Sightings are being reported again in Cherokee county of the tall, hairy creature with a face resembling a human and a strong stench - Bigfoot. “I feel like Faye Ray here,” said Sheryl Mast, of the Gideon community. “Maybe he"s looking for a girlfriend.” Bigfoot is a common reference to an uncommon and unexplained occurrence. People seeing it may assume the creature is a bear or choose to not tell anyone about what they saw. After all who would believe them? Sightings have been reported in almost every state and many countries, of a creature known as Yeti in Asia,Yowie in Australia, Sasquatch in Canada and Chiya tanka by the Lakota Indians.

Bigfoot prefers mountainous and forested regions. This time north of Tahlequah on rural State Highway 82 at Gideon, near Peggs, experiences include the thud of heavy footsteps running and shaking the ground, large footprints in the mud and a very strong, musky odor. Urban legends abound and can be tracked worldwide on the Internet from sworn affidavit accounts to obvious nonsense. But in an area known as Muphy"s Hill, between two branches of 14-Mile Creek, Sheryl Mast is sure she didn"t imagine the loud bang against the side of the trailer and the terrible smell. She"s lived there about a year. Theclosest neighbors are about five miles away, other than a second trailer that sets besides her boyfriends", where a friend lives. The Bigfoot is curious, Mast said, and is getting to be a regular visitor. “It"s getting bolder, coming out in the daytime,” she said. “Sunday afternoon the wind shifted and we smelled it.” Mast said she went up in the front part of the yard by the lane, where her dog was upset in a pen.

A book on the Johor Bigfoot, said to include exclusive photographs of the elusive creature, has caused a stir among cryptozoologists around the world. The book authored by local writers and researchers, including the man in the thick of Bigfoot research in Johor, Vincent Chow, is set to be released in the next few months.Chow said yesterday he had seen the Bigfoot photographs, which belonged to an individual.He added the individual wished to remain anonymous for the time being."The owner of the photographs has only agreed to allow them to be used in our book."All I can say is that the photographs are convincing and all visible signs point towards the possibility that the Johor Bigfootcould be a variant of the Homo erectus species of hominids (creature resembling humans), thought to have gone extinct some 50,000 years ago or that it is an unknown hominid."Loren Coleman, a leading cryptozoologists, in his website Cryptomundo.com, open- ed a discussion on Thursday on the new book and received a flood of comments from the international community of cryptozoologists and Bigfoot enthusiasts.Coleman, who has authored several books on the Bigfoot subject, said Chow’s revelation that the photographs showed the creature’s genitalia, could be proof of the creature’s sexual dimorphism."When Vincent Chow’s book shows the Bigfoot photographs, I will shout a hearty ‘congratulations’ to him."Yes, as he says, many will have the last laugh on this one.

I will be especially happy for all the(Bigfoot) eyewitnesses who have had to tolerate ridicule merely for reporting what they saw."Coleman said the reality of a living fossil existing, such as Homo erectus, would be earth-shattering. "If Chow’s findings pan out, look for some revolutionary new thoughts within anthropology, palaeoanthropology, hominology and cryptozoology. As Chow has told me, what he is talking about are ‘photographs of the real McCoys’. "I am happy to announce I will be one of the contributors to his book."

Submitted by Vaughn A Picard: Randy Fobister"s pictures have been circulating through Grassy Narrows like gossip this week. They are of a 15-inch long, six-toed, "big" footprint. Driving to a blueberry picking site Tuesday, about an hour north of the Grassy Narrows First Nation reserve located 80 km northeast of Kenora, Helen Pahpasay and her mother saw something they"ve never seen before. "I seen a black, um ... thing," Pahpasay said. "It was tall and lanky and it was walking towards our way. "I thought I was seeing things, so I didn"t say anything," she said."I looked over to my mom and she was rubbing her eyes." About eight feet tall.

Slender. Black as night. Bigfoot was out for a walk, she said. "It was just walking casually. I know it wasn"t an animal, cause it was upright. It was human like, like the way we walk," she said. Scared, the women drove back to their community. Pahpasay told her family, who turned her right around for the hunt. What they found is six-toed footprints somewhere in the woods, near a beaver pond. It appears it leaped over a dam, into the pond, Fobister said. "Sort of like one big-foot jump." Fobister made a cast of the print that afternoon and plans to send it out to be analyzed. The story of thecreature isn"t new to the community. Tales circulated through history speak of a tall, creature-like thing, screaming loudly in the same area. No one was ever brave enough to try to confront it in the past, but Fobister was ready. "We were just excited," he said. "I kept hearing about this thing, I"ve been hearing about it since I was a kid, so when I got the chance close by here I jumped right on it."
