Looking for Work

This fine looking bigfoot hand puppet heard a rumor Ballyhoo was looking for a bigfoot willing to work.  Well, we interviewed the chap and gave him the above contract. Turns out, he doesn't have a name, doesn't know his age, and has no permanent address.  The interviewer whooped for joy. I, Linda Newton-Perry, couldn't help but overhear the jubilation and quickly entered the room where the bigfoot and interviewer were simply staring at each other.

Seems he's a perfect match, for the job we don't have and didn't advertise for. He claims he is desperate for work and will devise a position that we would all be happy with. He made his mark and left the office for his home in the forest. He assured us he'd be seeing us in a few days with a plan. A little embarrassing for all was his request for an advance which we gave him: frozen salmon and a few overripe apples from the kitchen that were going to be thrown out.

Show Your Pictures of Bigfoot Here

As far as we can determine the photo of Big Clyde in front of the tree trunk is a real photo. If you've aimed your camera at the animal and captured something, anything, why not share it here on Ballyhoo. Recently a couple took photos of what they thought was bigfoot eating apples from a tree between Elkton and Scottsburg, Oregon. How about sharing the best of the blurs with us? We are wild to see a photo of bigfoot even if it is a blur. (Okay, I'm speaking for myself on this one.) And someone said they had an old photo of the one eyed bigfoot that probably is Big Clyde. Why not share? 

Do remember this blog is scientific in no way. We are simply bigfoot believers and love talking bigfoot. And we would be in bigfoot heaven to see what someone claims to be a bigfoot. The email address in in the bio section in right column. ... LNP

P.S. Drawing of what you saw would be great as well.

As the crow flys, not far from where Big Clyde was filmed.

Big Clyde, of course, is the bigfoot that the ESP Team photographed Aug. 8th, this year. ... LNP

Question to Debbie

Original photo: photoxpress

Debbie's answer:
The last letter I received from the agency, Department of Interior, stated the file will be open for view in late January. No body pictures are available in the file. It is an autopsy report and does state the animal was too far degraded to use any testing methods on it. I will keep you informed of what the file numbers are when they becomes available. Note: I do not work for Rand anymore.  I have moved on to a new group. Because of the uproar over the last few months, I will not use the name of my present law group. Thank you for your patience. I did not enjoy "Quote" People calling the Rand office to get me in trouble.


Here is a comment by Gordon Paison. He was there when the animal was found. If you wish to read more about the Columbus Day animal (1962) search Columbus Day on Ballyhoo's search tool.
Gordon Paison :
Yes, I can recall all of that day. As you know we had a major windstorm that hit on October 12th 1962. This windstorm had wreaked havoc on standing timber from Northern California to Southern Washington. Contracts were awarded to many logging companies to help with the massive cleanup of the roads under USFS jurisdictions. By November we had over 30 million feet of timber on the ground from wind damage. Greyback was major artery used from O'Brien to Happy Camp.

This area was contracted by Griffy and Laird Co. On a November day we were called to assist in the removal of the deceased remains of victim of the windstorm from Greyback road. The body had been discovered by the clearing crew and reported to our field office in Medford. What the recovery team was soon to learn was the remains were not of a human.

It was quite apparent that whatever this animal was it was not human or animal as we describe animals. The body of this thing was in advanced decomposition but clearly showed it had 2 arms with hands and 5 fingers along with 2 legs and feet with 5 toes on each that were something of a apelike human. Also it was female in sex as I recall. The thing for better words was something of a giant heavy human -ape type.

Nobody in our group had ever seen such a thing before. As for the reported photos they were not supposed to ever be shown as we did not give permission for the thing to be photographed. But apparently before our arrival some pictures were taken by the crew and some locals. These pictures were to be collected if possible because the case had not been classified as natural death yet.

Though some photos were not found much of them were collected as ordered by the district manager of this region. Like I said, the thing was never classified as any known animal. It was thought to be some type of unusual primate but was never classified as such.

My memory is quite clear of that thing and when that film of the '67 bigfoot came out I remembered this thing was very near it in looks. So my idea is it was a bigfoot not a ape- human.
