After sitting for two years in the publishers limbo, I resecured rights to this book series. In failing health, figured I’d better get what I have published, so am sending out pretty much the raw document, sans frills. I can relax knowing that “I did it my way.†I’ve read through the text twice and used Spell Check. Hope I didn’t miss too many typos. Pictures are often fuzzy from being scanned from the original publication of the Track Record. A CD of the entire 17 years is on the NABS Website or avalible from Amazon…just look up “Ray Crowe;†there are several other books that I’ve published. Be sure to keep your skepticals on at all times. With improvements all of original Vol, I material is included. There are long lists of sighting reports sorted by behavior traits for reader comparison. And, several questions that you can have answered...ever wonder how often the Big Fella’ gets hit on roads…and how many don’t? And what becomes of the bones or the bodies? Or what a Bigfoot life was like from little Bigfootlet to a screaming adult. Where do they go during a forest fire? Or…do they have a religion? They do like to throw or stack rocks, or even trade things. And, how smart is the critter really…smarter than a dolphin maybe? And they sure do like the water; swimming with several different methods and often for long distances. How about an interesting Sea Man…a type of Bigfoot or not? And then there are things like Littlefoot and the dog-headed creatures…the American Werewolf. Had a lot of fun speculating on that one. Or wondering if there are more than one species? A chart of differences is for the reader to decide. The Forest Man seems to have several health considerations…and no Blue Cross. He seems to have a big problem breathing or rickets and mange, or just old age and failing teeth. There is a pretty good hour to hour activity graph indicating a cathermal nature. Some have white in their eyes (human trait) while others are reported as just plain brown. There seem to be some pretty odd adaptations. A population count is tried with family habitat range, black bear counts, using wildlife counting methods and finally trying to estimate numbers from genetic defects. Seems 10,000 in the Pacific Northwest works. And a try at estimating average adult weight. I wind things up with a chapter: “An End or a Beginning.†The results of Dr. Melba Ketchum’s work with DNA Genomes. Many doubters, but she is still the FIRST to crack the code and give us a peek at what a Bigfoot is… Homo sapiens cognatus. Reprinted her DeNovo Scientific Journal abstract. There was a description of some of the 111 samples, which led up to a coverage of the Sierra killings…with some surprise revelations. Then I did a bunch of wild speculating on origins.
