It is now 50 years since the famous Patterson-Gimlin film was shot, and yet no definitive evidence for sasquatch has been produced to date. The clock is still ticking. But that doesn’t matter, because sasquatch believers have many rationalizations for why we are unable to find compelling evidence for the existence of these creature. So let start by listing the reasons, and then we’ll come back in due course and systematically discuss the flaws in logic for each of these.
The population of sasquatch is small, which makes it difficult to detect.
The wilderness of North America is vast; sasquatch can live in isolation without detection.
Sasquatch are extremely smart and elusive; they can avoid contact with humans.
It is extremely unlikely that one would find the body of an animal in the wild, even less likely the body of an elusive creature like sasquatch.
Folks who have found sasquatch bodies, other significant physical evidence, or have shot a sasquatch do not want to come forward because they do not want the attention.
People who have had an opportunity to shoot a sasquatch have not done so for a multitude of reasons.
Expert sasquatch hunters could provide physical evidence, including a body, but doing so would endanger sasquatch since it would be hunted it to extinction once it’s proven to exist.
Sasquatch have the ability to avoid trail cameras, closed circuit video, and other technology, and all of these technologies have issues that significantly limit their usefulness for detecting sasquatch.
There is a conspiracy to cover up evidence of sasquatch, since it will decimate the logging industry if sasquatch is proven to exist and declared an endangered species.
The government has military programs, for example a program to turn sasquatch into lethal killing machines, and needs to keep sasquatch a secret to protect these programs.
Sasquatch can disappear through a portal into other dimensions, disappear into secret underground caves, or get beamed up to their spaceships to avoid detection.
