We here at Sqwatchout.com have adopted the no kill philosophy. When it comes to Bigfoot we believe killing these creatures for the sake of proving its existence is the wrong choice. There are many others with the opposite viewpoint and although we do not agree that killing one of these creatures is the best option we do have to agree with some of the points that these proponents make. In this digital age any video or audio evidence can be easily credited as fake, and without a body that can be studied by multiple experts and examined by scientists along with the media there is very little that can be proved to the public at large especially when it comes to these mysterious animals. It is most likely that it will take a body to once and for all prove that these creatures are real. So is the killing of say a "Bigfoot" the way we should go? Should we be stalking hotspots with rifles in order to kill one of these elusive creatures? Our opinion is "No". Let's be honest, there are enough hunting accidents every year, we don't need to compound that by sending people in to the woods looking to shoot big animals walking on two legs. Tall hikers and Josh Gates beware!! A group of these creatures being tracked and studied by researchers should be preferable to one being shot and killed by someone just to prove their existence. All a body gives us is DNA and anatomy. There is so much more to be learned by studying the habits, social structure, and personality of these creatures. What we should be looking for is consistent evidence of these creatures in one location that can be tracked. If a group of these creatures could be studied in their own habitat on an ongoing basis we would soon get the "proof" needed to satisfy the masses. Tranquilizing, GPS tracking, and constant monitoring would be essential but it would prove the existence of these animals. So why hasn't this been done? There are a few people in the US that say they know of groups of these animals from consistent sightings and contact. They know the area they live in and some of there general habits...they even call them habituated in some circumstances. To them I say "Show me the money!!!" Take me to these locations and let see whats there. Let me see your proof for myself and if these creatures are really there lets bring in some experts to really take a look at them. Letting the right people study these creatures can put an end to this debate. Getting these animals recognized by science and put under federal protection if necessary should be our main concern.
So to sum up, the Sqwatchout.com team is of the no kill philosophy. We agree that will probably take a body of one of these creature, dead or alive, to prove their existence to the masses, but the the collection of said body should be done along with he careful and minimally invasive study of these creatures in their natural habitat.
If there are those of you out there reading this that know where these creatures are...know where we can see them and know where they can be found on a consistent basis...let us know! We will investigate, we will bring experts and we will scientifically prove that these animals exists while being minimally invasive to their society.
