During Eugene Radio Interview, Bigfoot Lunch Club is Inspired by 10 Yr Old Researcher

Hunter, age 10, is a sponge for Bigfoot lore and also quite the entrepreneur
"Always believe, even if people say you are crazy! Make calls while you are in the woods, and make sure you have gloves and a camera with you." -- Hunter Davis 10 yr old Bigfoot Researcher

Last Friday I had the great honor of sharing Eugene radio waves with 10 yr old professional Sasquatch researcher Hunter Davis of Squatch Watch. Hunter was smart, eloquent and a tough act to follow. (BTW I meant porcupines not beavers..you'll understand) Please listen to the embedded interview below. We would like to thank Robb Holloway, Host of KPNW's Wake Up Call, You can catch him on 104.7 KDUK, mid-day. He does lots of events as well, check out his website at BicoastalMedia.com.

Okay now on to our interview with Hunter Davis, our new inspiration for Sasquatch research.

  1. How long have you been into Bigfoot? I have been interested in Big foot for a very long time. Maybe 5-6 years.
  2. How did you get interested in Bigfoot? I heard a story about an encounter with big foot, and it stuck in my mind, and caused me to be curious.
  3. What are some of your favorite Bigfoot websites? I paticularly like many of the Facebook sites where dialog is taking place, like your Bigfoot Lunch Club page, and my new Squatch Watch page. I also very much enjoy Cliffs's page NorthAmericanBigfoot.com. I find it full of information and it's objective too!
  4. Who are your favorite bigfoot researchers? I really [like] Cliff and Bobo from Finding Bigfoot. Bobo is very fun, and Cliff is very good at reinacting encounters.
  5. How would you describe Bigfoot? I would describe  bigfoot as being a very tall, hairy and shy creature. They obviously have big feet and their eyes shine at night. Bigfoot is very ellusive.
  6. Do you feel like they should shoot Bigfoot? hmm, i think they should shoot him with tranquilizer dart, so that he could be captured, as proof he exists, for research for a time, and then return him to where he was captured.
  7. How do you feel about the Patterson/Gimlin film I know some people believe it was staged, but i believe it is real piece of evidence. They couldnt have faked such a elaborate staging without someone eventually . I would have loved to meet Mr. Patterson, and look forward to meeting Mr. Gimlin some day.
  8. Have you had a Bigfoot encounter, or heard a Bigfoot? No, I have not, but I want to. I like to go out and make calls and listed for responses. I think I live in a very squatchy area, and hope that soon curious about me and my calling to them.
  9. Can you give a brief explanation of each of the products you sell. I sell "Got Squatch?" T shirts and hoodies, and will have a new shirt design coming soon, I have hats in production now and I also have Squatch Sticks which are small stick that (kids) people can easily carry while hiking etc. and use to clap together to peak the interest of bigfoots where they are at, or to rattle tree branches to do the same.
  10. Any advice for other kids looking for bigfoot? Always believe even if people say you are crazy.! make calls while you are in the woods, and make sure you have gloves and a camera with you. Make sure you take an adult with you to be safe.There are many good conversations on Facebook for kids, like on my SquatchWatch page. Dont believe everything you hear or read, but be open to investingating to find the truth.
  11. 11. Is there anything you want to say about the radio interview itself? Is there anything you wanted to add? How were you approached for the interview. Robb emailed my mom to ask me to be on the radio. I was thrilled at teh opportunoity. I wanted to get the word out about my adventure and inspire other kids and adults to join me. Selling more t-shirts is great too! I like to say I am in persuit of big foot. I enjoyed listening to what you had to say durring the interview Guy. I think we made a great team!

London Bigfoot Tracks: Tobby Johnson Interview at the Scene

Toby Johnson sending a postcard from the past.
Date/Time: Saturday, ‎February ‎18, ‎2012, ‏‎7:11:50 AM  Location: London, Oregon


At this point Toby, Thom, Beth and I had only 3 hours of sleep. We had been casting almost the entire night prior. This video was shot right after daybreak. I decided to record this interview for posterity's sake. This is the location four days after the initial discovery. In the interview there are two corrections that must be made. 
  1. The original discoverer, Max Roy, was not walking his dog, he was approached by a man walking his dog who mentioned the prints to Max. The name of the man and his dog are unknown.
  2. The independent count that Cliff Barackman and I, Guy Edwards, came up with was 122. Toby Mentions over 160 in the video. The 160 may be other prints that were discovered nearby, Cliff and I only counted the ones in sequence.
You can get the details Toby is describing in our earlier post titled, "Over 120 Sequential Sasquatch Prints Found South of Eugene." Enjoy the video below

More London Bigfoot Prints as Told by Cliff Barackman and Thom Powell

60+ casts made by Cliff Barackman from the London Footprint Sequence
 with the help of Chris Minniear and Toby Johnson
"I have been in ongoing and close contact with Dr. Jeff Meldrum of Idaho State University about this track find.  He has agreed to assist me in writing up my report..." --Cliff Barackman


Nearly 30 cast made by Thom Powell from the London Footprint Sequence
with help from Toby Johnson, Beth Heikkinen and BigfootLunchClub editor, Guy Edwards
"Max was't looking for bigfoot, or even bigfoot evidence.  He was looking for an old car to buy.  He never found the car, but he did find some of the best bigfoot evidence ever dicovered. Talk about serendipity." --Thom Powell


Cliff has released some great photos from his research of the London Tracks. Cliff was one of the first guys on the scene. You can read our sequence of events at our post, "Over 120 Sequential Sasquatch Prints Found South of Eugene" If you want to see great photos and specifics from Cliff Barackman's perspective then you need to head over to NorthAmericanBigfoot.com. Thom Powell, ever the author, writes one of the most gripping narratives of the events at his post titled, "The London Tracks: Where Serendipity Met Synchronicity"

Below is a slideshow compilation of most of the first photos in chronological order. The photographers are from Max Roy (first one to contact Toby about the Tracks) Toby Johnson (One of the first to discover the 120+ sequence), Cliff Barackman (The first to cast the majority of the sequence), and Thom Powell (The first person to say he got the second most casts of the sequence).
