Does the DNR acknowledge footies on the public land? As far as hoaxing goes, it's pretty much the only thing one can count on in bigfootery.

The private land where I had my thermal sightings, we haven't been able to get back there for several years because of various reasons. The owner won't let anyone in except a very select few, which I happen to be one of. Hoping to get back this year.
That the owner is willing to let you back on his land tells you he doesn't believe footie is hanging around. Why would he let you in on such a cash cow?

When the owner first came forward several years ago, the backlash was significant. Both within the community and internet harassment. As more and more individuals have come forward with sighting reports, the community has become much more accepting and the owner no longer has any issues. We did a town hall presentation and had over 120 people attend. Last year a small community self proclaimed it the Home of Bigfoot and they had a festival which was pretty well attended. I believe BigfootBookMan was there.

Bigfoot entrepreneurship. ****, the Musky Festival in Hayward WI draws thousands every year; of course, a musky is a real thing, so there's that.
