If Big Foot was in your yard posing no threat, just escaping and evading as usual, would you take a shot? Or just let him keep on keeping on. Would you claim the trophy or let him be?

Would you shoot Big Foot?

How much the trophy is worth might be the difference between whacking chewbaca and still a mystery.
I don't know if I'd shot him or not but he'd be in the crosshairs just in case I needed to. If he was doing as above I'd hope I had a go pro in hand and my ol'hog leg on the hip or chest rig.
I've often asked myself this same question.
Recently I saw a video on youtube where the host theorizes that the species abducts and eats humans. One story was about a father and his son who had met another group with another kid. The kids were playing hide and seek but 30 yards away in the bushes next to the clearing and his boy vanished in a few minutes never to be found again. Another group of people a few miles away in the same time frame reported a bigfoot sighting and that the creature was carrying something.
Either way the experience would be life changing.

Hell yes! There is a multi million dollar bounty on one of their asses. Also, as there would have to be several thousand if not a lot more, in order to have viable breeding populations going around the world. Of these at least 20 different claimed habits would be in the US alone. Killing one of these elusive creatures wouldn't hurt their population at all. They need to be studied!!! They have abilities only dreamed about- for they are able to beat all known tried and true methods of capture. Dogs can't pick up their scent, they have figured out how to elude thermal imaging and NV devices of all types, not to mention- how long they can live on next to nothing for long periods of time! Even though they are covered with hair, they do not shed. They don't build fires (or at least any with a smoke signature) yet are able to store vast amounts of food to allow the entire "tribe" to survive in snow covered winter terrain. They don't grow crops, or raise live stock, therefore we must conclude they survive utilizing the hunter/gather method. Of all their masterful ability, I am most impressed in their ability to elude tracking dogs! A good pack of tracking dogs are a marvel to watch work. On top of not shedding, they emit no known scent, or at least no know scent that can be perceived by dogs!
Now, it is possible they are being transported by UFO's, you know the area 51 kind. When ever one is spotted, the spotter is zapped with a "time losing ray". This gives the UFO's a chance to "clean up" any evidence, hair, scent, prints etc., then they are whisked off to another location. I'm guessing the UFO's are being piloted by large reptile like aliens! When ever the Big Foot get hungry, the aliens, find a cattle herd, and some how- take out the organs (mutilate) of the beast, leaving the rest to be found, as this is the preferred diet of the Big Feet (more than one Big Foot). Evidently, crop circles are part of their mating ritual(s). In areas with out agriculture, where they can't do crop circles, they do crystal gazing. One only need to look at some of our human population to see that Big Foot is breeding with humans! So yes I'd shoot one, the info that could be learned would be priceless, but-I'd take the reward as long as I was at it.

I would not shoot it. Over time, my willingness to kill things that aren't bothering me has pretty much disappeared. Now, if he kicked my little dog, that would be an entirely different story. He would probably be dead before my little dog hit the ground.
Arizona Game and Fish said they did not issue Bigfoot Tags, I asked.
I would still shoot him and skin him and use his fur as my Ghillie suit because it would make me invisible to the whole world except for a couple of stoners with poor photography skills from Colorado and Washington.

Yyp, he wrote a book called "Missing 411" about all the people that mysteriously vanish in national parks/forests.
I know the video you're talking about, I don't think the other specifically believes they're eating people, but he does believe they are taking them. mostly young kids.....maybe to try and raise.
Very interesting stuff. I would like to say that yes, I would shoot one if given the opportunity for the sake of science. Then again, I've never seen one so have no idea how i'd react.
I wouldn't shoot to kill, just maim the sucker so he couldn't go anywhere. Imagine the bounty for a live specimen.
Now we need to discuss the best caliber/bullet combination...

1 round, $10,000,000.00, one dead "big foot", those that say they wouldn't are....well...okay, maybe a couple are telling the truth, but I'm just saying....

No... but sooner or later that nut-job Bigfoot scientist will show up on this thread (like he does every time someone mentions bigfoot)... and I'd sure consider taking a whack at that dude. Think of it as a bit of chlorine in the gene pool.
And since I have a bigfoot suit... I appreciate all you guys who say you wouldn't take a shot.
Cheers,
Sirhr

Nope, I have never even shot a buck. We only kill what we eat (unless it is trying to eat us). We hunt, fish, and enjoy the outdoors too much for trophy hunting. I have canned plenty of does, ducks,and chicken, but not sure about canning a squach
Bigfoot works at the Spearmint Rhino in Fresno.

If it has lived this long without being caught, shot, or clearly photo graphed then it deserves to be left alone. Only kill it if your going to eat it and I try to actively avoid eating human like possibly inelegant creatures

If it was a male I would shoot it with my 458 Lott. If it was a female I would shoot it with a tranq load from the CapSure stuffed with a butt load of ketamine. After that I would get my buddies to film me fucking it. I would copy-write the movie and sell it for big money or just do a pay per view run. Squatch Porn baby!
If its him or me!......... It's definitely him! 5 45.70 14 .45's and 1 knife if necessary.

Naw I would pass on Big Foot but if it was a Yeti I'll shoot that bastard. They are scary fuckers!
I would think AZGFD would consider a Bigfoot as a non-game species, so no actual season. Like jackrabbits, feral cats, feral hogs, etc. Open year round, no bag limit.
Unfortunately, I would not shoot one....my ceilings are only 8' high, and I would have no place to put the taxidermied mount! But a rug might be cool......it would look perfect next to my Chupacabra rug I took down in southern AZ.
I do not believe Bigfoot exists. For some kind of Large apelike animal to live in the areas where it has been "seen" and leave no sign that can ever be found, how could that happen. Bears live in the woods and leave bear shit, bear hair, and at the end of their lives bear carcasses. Bigfoot is commonly seen as being quite hairy, Where are the samples of hair on bushes or trees. Where does Bigfoot go to shit?
So if I saw Bigfoot in the back yard I would assume my brother got a Bigfoot costume and was f'ing with me. If some cosmic narrator descended from the heavens and told me "No that really is a Bigfoot." The most logical conclusion would be that I was suffering some form of insanity. I understand that this does happen to some people. But, I would advise against shooting anything while hearing heavenly or demonic voices.
The points above, while true, are not directly responsive to the conditions of your question. Your question posits that their is a Bigfoot, it is in range, and I have been able to positively identify it as a Bigfoot. In that case, I would not shoot. The only way the above conditions could be met would be if Bigfoot were not a animal at all but a intelligent being with advanced technology at it's disposal. Technology advanced enough that it could conceal it's entire population against many humans looking for it. I would not want to be the idiot who fired the first shot in that war.

Of course, of course...
I mean, we just can't have such a smelly (and so obviously harmful) influence running around where the kids can find it...
Do it for the children. Do it for the cute little bunnies... Do it..., do it... for the whales...
Umm..., yes; narration would be nice too, maybe some form of angelic voice...
If it was my Elder Brother, wearing a Sasquatch suit and messin' with me; that would be a REAL problem.
It would mean he is now a paranormal entity..., in a Sasquatch suit...
Hey, I just got a great idea for a reality show...

^^^ holy shit that is funny.
On a serious note. I see Bigfoot all the time. Just head to your local Walmart im sure you'll spot a few.
But in all seriousness id atleast toss it a knife and begin the sequel to "the most dangerous game" atleast make it competitive. I just better have a pocket full of beef jerky in case things go awry.

not only would i, also came up with a plan:
for a lure, i'd need an eternal out of focus camera. seems they know when your camera is on the fritz, and should be able to lure them out to taunt you.
for scouting purposes, flashy CDs hung from tree limbs (to draw in curious bigfoots to investigate the shine) with surveillance from game cameras to monitor activity on the CDs and any major game trails leading to them. this'll take 3-6 weeks, once the bigfoots realize there is no apparent danger they'll approach. perhaps build a BF nest or too around the perimeter, to further get the territorial juices flowing.
i thought of suspending fresh deer carcass or fruit over a deadfall for bait, but a bigfoot, apparently able to use their noggin, would find it peculiar that the bait was suspended and pick out the disturbance in the ground underneath. the only exception would be in cougar / mtn lion areas, the suspended bait may work and not be so out of the ordinary, and the disturbance underneath cause by creation of the deadfall may be viewed as the lion's struggle to get their kill up the tree. this'll help distract the bigfoot's attention from ground level, hopefully having them to extend their arms up (must have bait 25ft or so in the air above a game trail) exposing the vitals in centermass for a clear shot if the deadfall isn't an option.
also i imagine bigfoot is being of the thinking / predatory sort, scent control would be paramount. this rules out being too close to the bigfoot's lair. if using a rifle, .3006 or above for enough energy to get through the thick course hair, reported heavy muscle tissue, and any winter fat put on for this time of year. so i'm thinking .338 lapua running a 285gr barnes triple shock tips for good measure.
setup would have to be ridge to ridge shooting, just above the tree line using thermals and prevailing winds to the advantage of the shooter. first would be to drop a prey animal, hopefully on the sunny side of the opposing slope, and waiting for mr. B to show up. occasionally using a tree knock or two, maybe a howl or a feeding growl about every 1-2 hours to create more interest without too much commotion to give away location. the sunny slope should help to deter complete freezing of the carcass, and attract ravens / crows to feed, causing a natural dinner bell being rung for larger animals (bigfoot) to scavenge.
another theory is fresh roadkill or fruit dumped on remote road that has a high historic amount of sightings, a full tank of gas, and just drive back and forth taking the opportunity to take one with the fender. a 78 dodge power wagon with a confederate flag front license plate, empty beer cans in the back, a 8" lift kit with mud bogging tires, roll bar with big assed off road lights should be inconspicuous and blend in enough not to raise the bigfoot's suspicion.
also thought about a self contained helium balloon like a weather balloon, suspended / anchored above a bigfoot hot spot. it'd be silent, scent above the ground, used on moonless nights only. it would stick out too much during the day. this would need NV / thermal optics, probably a semi as that platform would have some motion to it a semi would be nice for quick followup shots if needed. drop down a bigfoot decoy with a remote speaker in it, silhouetted against the snow in winter to help draw that bastard out. touch off some feeding growls and small animal distress calls.
i'm thinking it would be mating season would be in august as the gestation period of a mtn ape is 8.5 months / human 9 months so it would make sense to have young the following spring when the living is good, plenty of fresh flora and fauna for the young to take advantage of or for the female to eat to provide enough milk (bigfoot decoys in the spring should be of a juvenile less than 4ft nature, creating an abandoned young feel, kicking in the mother instinct to adopt the youngster, coming out of cover to rescue it). but during mating season in august, have to use ape and human estrogen / pheromones as a lure, either for mating or territorial dominance to help draw them out. compliment that with softer "come hither" female mating calls.
another setup would be around the time livestock starts dropping their young, overwatch areas where wilderness meets ranchlands, particularly if there is a draw and stream on or close the bottomland's border. i figure bigfoots would take advantage of newborn sheep and calves, either taking them themselves, or driving off coyotes from a fresh kill they've made and taking the spoils, using the cover of the draw / streambed to mask their approach or retreat, and makes a natural ambush point.
i've thought of using salmon runs as a source, but then too much competition among bear that would gather in the same area. i think a bigfoot would win against a single black bear or grizzly, but not against multiple numbers of bear over food. i'm also thinking that while the bear are away the bigfoot will play and further pillage food sources the bear temporarily abandon for the salmon. so they should be able to be located easily in these temporary abandoned bear haunts.
so there you have it, plans are in place, just looking for sponsorship, or an opportunity to present my case on Shark Tank.

i dont want to shoot anything that isnt fucking with me or mine but more importantly, in this particular case, id be the one that just capped some fucking hillbilly pranking others and spend the rest of my life in jail for it. fuck it, take a pic.
You also need to consider you will be the new George Zimmerman for every granola and bigfoot hunting basement dweller in the world. I would not want to deal with the hassle of the environmentalist media filming me I am camera shy. I would probably try to feed the big fella like the stray cats behind my house. Over time I'm sure we could be friends.
