I’ve been waiting a long time for this episode of MonsterQuest. This is a follow-up investigation to the Canadian Bigfoot investigation from season one. The 2006 investigation netted some impressive results.
The team returned to the cabin and set up camp for the week only to be let down. The float plane operator gave the crew news about a nearby Bigfoot sighting. A couple of Canadians saw a Bigfoot when they were out picking blueberries. They noted the bipedal upright walking which is key because bears are often mistaken for a Bigfoot and bears cannot walk on two feet for very long.
This is as close as you’ll ever come to seeing a Bigfoot on MonsterQuest
The researchers packed up their gear and left the cabin for the location where the Bigfoot had been spotted, just over 100 miles southwest of the cabin. Although their relocation didn’t net them any new results, they did learn something important: animals need food.
Haha, yeah. I hate to sound like Captain Obvious here, but I would prefer to eat blueberries and raspberries than lichen any day of the week. So it doesn’t surprise me that these Bigfoot sightings were further to the south. Spring came late to Canada this year apparently and the blueberries weren’t ripe yet near the cabin and therefore the Bigfoot stayed away.
One of the key discoveries from the previous investigation came from the blood work. The other episode ended with the revelation that the scientist found primate DNA in the blood which was found on the board of screws. However, the same blood was tested again with a different technique by a different scientist and he only came up with bacteria.
I was incredibly disappointed with this episode. I had very high hopes of something impressive, but nothing was learned as far as I’m concerned. I would hope that the team returns to the cabin again next year, but pays attention to the blueberry ripening. There’s no point in making this mistake again. As for the blood work, well, it’s hard to say what went wrong. Either the previous tests were contaminated or the blood no longer contains DNA.
