Mike Greene, of Thermal Bigfoot Footage Fame, Speaks in NC

Mike Green Captured a Bigfoot with a Thermal Camera

The Bigfoot Thermal video is still considered one of the most compelling videos in recent history.  Also known as the Squeaky Footage, due to the squeaky toy used to draw the Sasquatch in, this film was recorded by former EMT Mike Green.

Matt Moneymaker, co-host of the TV show Finding Bigfoot says of the video, "This is the most important footage of a Sasquatch since Paterson/Gimlin film taken over 40 years ago...”

Mike Green will be visiting the Archdale library to speak and answer question. You cane read the details below reprinted from the Courier Tribune. 

ARCHDALE — Bigfoot researcher Michael D. Greene will talk about his nationwide quest for the legendary beast at 7 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 2, at the Archdale Public Library, 10433 S. Main St., Archdale.

The event is free and the public is invited.

In search of Sasquatch, Greene has traveled from Bella Coola, British Columbia, to the Teslin River, Yukon Territory, to Bluff Creek, Calif., to the Olympic Peninsula in Washington, to the Adirondack Mountains of New York state, Florida’s Everglades and to North Carolina, where he now makes his home near Salisbury. He has a thermal film image of what appears to be a Sasquatch moving through the North Carolina woods at night and in 2011 was filmed by an Animal Planet crew for the show “Finding Bigfoot.”

Greene has a master of science degree in behavioral psychology, is a court-qualified Questioned Documents Expert and for 20 years was Chief Investigator for a state fraud bureau.

He is a pilot and a former EMT and an 18-year member of the National Ski Patrol. When not “Squatching” he can be found sailing his catamaran “ALL I ASK” out of Norfolk, Va.

Craigslist Bigfoot Prankster Interviewed

Craigslist ad goes viral; although no one took it seriously

This last September (2012) a Craigslist ad went viral and was picked up by MSNBC news. It was later determined to be a prank, but not before it was reported on MSNBC.com (see below).

Add Bigfoot research to the recession-proof industries. A website called All over Albany has alerted the Internet to a job opening on Craigslist that — for a primate-lover with an open mind and a (preferably) four-wheel-drive vehicle — could be the opportunity of a lifetime.
The Craigslist post, which seeks a research assistant, explains:

"Not for profit organization, located in Whitehall, NY is a high-energy, team-oriented research entity that is involved in the tracking, documenting, and study of cryptozoological creatures, with a deep interest in the study and search of bipedal primitive apes. We seek an experienced researcher with a deep understanding of cryptozoology, primatology, with a good background with scientific research and interest in great apes."

Some of the research assistant's responsibilities will be to "investigate, document and interview individuals with reported Bigfoot sitings (sic)," and an appropriate candidate must be prepared for "occasional travel to remote areas of Adirondacks including spending several nights in the wilderness, checking motion cameras, collecting hair and dung samples for laboratory analysis amongst other related activities."

Duties and Functions:

• Develop actionable tracking program in designated geographic area.
• Investigate, document and interview individuals with reported Bigfoot sitings.
• Occasional travel to remote areas of Adirondacks including spending several nights in the wilderness, checking motion cameras, collecting hair and dung samples for laboratory analysis amongst other related activites.
• Must have own transportation, four-wheel drive a plus.

** Serious Inquiries only **
Compensation: based on experience, this is a grant funded position and is expected to last 6 months with the possibility of renewal.

Today (10.23.2012), a Florida weekly paper, Broward Palm Beach New Times interviewed the prankster to determine how he got the verbage for the compelling ad.

When asked about how he came up with such clever phrasing and job duties to include the ad, Reeves explained that he had watched a Bigfoot special earlier in the week on the History Channel and remembered the lingo dropped by various cryptozoologists. Adding in the fact that the position was grant-funded and would likely only last six months was a stroke of genius.

But the Internet has a way of revealing dirty little secrets, and one commenter was quick to point out that Reeves' ad wasn't all that original after all. And New Times wasn't the first news outlet to go bananas over the prospect.

As documented in this MSNBC article and this All Over Albany article, somebody hit an upstate New York Craigslist board with the same posting. As far as we can tell, neither of these outlets bothered contacting the poster to determine the veracity of the post.

"I took it from somebody else and added some stuff to it," Reeves said when contacted on Monday.

The original ad isn't up on the New York Craigslist site anymore, as far as we can tell, so it's tough to figure out whether Reeves did in fact tweak and modify the ad as needed. He did at least change the locations to mention a few rural areas near the panhandle.

ABC Affiliate: Texas Man to Release more Bigfoot Videos

Photograph of Dallas Man's claim of Capturing Bigfoot on Camera

By now you have heard of Dallas business man who claims to have taken a picture of several bigfoot, including a family group of three. You also may know he wishes to remain anonymous.

In new reporting broadcast last night (10.22.2012) by ABC affiliate in Austin, Texas. The man plans on releasing more videos in the near future. You can read the article below followed by the KVUE.com video.

DALLAS, Texas -- When you think of Bigfoot, you may think of the northwest. But, in recent years, there have been reported sightings in East Texas, and even near Dallas.

Now, a Dallas businessman said he has picture proof after snapping a picture in Shelby County.

Once a non-believer himself, he said he is changed man after seeing something move in the woods. He grabbed his camera and captured an image of what he believes is the legendary Bigfoot.

In the picture, a black area that could be seen as a figure is captured amongst the trees in a heavily wooded area. The photographer said that black area is the hairy creature. 

The photographer wants to remain anonymous. However, he won't be stepping back from his newfound discovery. He said he plans to release more video evidence in the future.

In Texas, one area known for its Bigfoot sightings is Caddo Lake. According to the Texas Bigfoot Research Center, hundreds of sightings have been reported. The TBRC talked about the sightings in a 2006 Travel Channel documentary.

While there are some who have debunked this photograph (see: Texas Photographer Snaps Picture of Bigfoot). We will be looking forward to seeing the new videos for the community to analyze.
