Bigfoot Migration
We decided to test the theories regarding Bigfoot migration. Some Bigfoot researchers state that Bigfoot is a migrating animal, while others claim Bigfoot stays put in a given area. Which is true? Looking for the answer to the question, we decided to tag an actual Bigfoot with a GPS chip, and thus track her movement. You may be surprised to find out that Bigfoot is a man-beast on the move.

Our journey began with finding a willing Bigfoot to be our guinea pig, and to our surprise we had many volunteers. "Virginia" (left) was our Bigfoot of choice (for obvious reasons - look real closely), and so with micro-chip implanted, we began by asking Virginia to go about her business as usual, not changing a thing in her monthly routine.
For about a week, we noticed nothing unordinary from what one might expect a Bigfoot to do. We observed Virginia traipsing through the wilderness, most likely foraging for berries and the occasional fruit and nut of the forest. But soon, the migration of Virginia would turn interesting.
At this point in the story, I should probably mention that Bigfoot researchers generally believe and agree that Bigfoot must move about to escape detection, find food, and mates. Some of this we found to be quite true.

Virginia, our female Bigfoot, seemed on the prowl, I mean she took off out of the wilderness of our undisclosed Pacific Northwest Forest, and began walking the rural roads that wind in, around, up and down what some may deem hostile environment. But to Virginia, this was a Bigfoot escape. We decided to dispatch a team to covertly follow Virginia by car, using on-board GPS navigation. After about a day, our Bigfoot migration team was able to locate and follow her undetected from a safe distance behind the Woolly Bugger.

We wondered where our well-endowed, female Bigfoot could be heading. Was she hungry for food? Was she threatened by local hunters, and thus forced to migrate to a new location? After about two hours of tracking Virginia, we ended up at a little-known, off-the-map, tavern hidden away, and apparently well known by local Bigfoot. A lounge? Yes, a lounge, but why?

Well, Bigfoot are known for voracious appetites, so their diet has been one of much speculation. What must it take to sustain such a large beast? Well, it would seem that food is not the only thing important to a Bigfoot, for we soon found our lush volunteer ordering Bigfoot ales, and keenly on the prowl for capable male suitors of the same species.

Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus, for our gal was soon joined by numerous male Bigfoot bodies at her table. As we hid in the corner of the Bigfoot lounge, we observed no less than five intrigued Bigfoot males stumbling over to her table in order to conquer Virginia's discriminating taste for beast.
While there observing the Bigfoot version of The Dating Game, we snapped a picture (below) of a male Bigfoot being asked to dance by some pathetic local logger. There is always somebody who will make an arse of themselves. Unbelievable. Too long in the forest, and away from female companionship will obviously drive some men to "bigger" aspirations!

Well, to put an end to this Bigfoot tale, let's just say that Virginia found her male counterpart. We believe she selected him because he actually had big feet. Anyway, Virginia and her new found Bigfoot boyfriend left the Bigfoot lounge that night together. Strolling back toward the Northwest wilderness, we learned some things about our Bigfoot experiment. Number one, a Bigfoot has needs, too. Not unlike us humans, Bigfoot want to be with others of their kind, enjoying social situations and occasionally imbibing some adult Kool-Aids. Ahh, those Bigfoot know how to live!

Sadly, many Bigfoot are killed each year crossing roads, being hit by speeding motorists. At left is one of many Bigfoot crossing signs that the U.S. Government is erecting in highly concentrated Bigfoot regions of the country.
We believe we now know why they cross our highways and bi-ways so haphazardly: specifically male Woolly Buggers are running a fast track to the local watering hole in pursuit of female Bigfoot. While in a mating "rut," such beasts will undoubtedly lose their mind, as so wisely illustrated in this Bigfoot Crossing sign. We guess they're not thinking with their head, and thus sometimes become unfortunate victims of love.
