Supposition: The pupils cover 120 degrees of the front occular hemisphere. The pupils have support for almost total expansion. The large amount of cones, and rods have very dense capillary placement. When light impinges on these large structures red is reflected. If anyone has seen pictures of a the rear surface of a human eye, then they can associate what a larger light sensing area with even denser blood supply would look like. Instead of redish pink, it would be bright red. Having said this, it still doesn’t explain the hearsay evidence, which supports active eyeshine, and in differing colors. Picture a weak LED. According to the circumstancial evidence, this is a voluntary phenomena. In other words, some say the Hairy Folk can turn it on, and off. I haven’t ever seen this, so I don’t know. As a side note a good source of this type of genetic occurance can be found in the (recessive trait)occular defects in albinos, which leads to accute light insensitivity

I have been into the eyes myself, drawing many Sasquatch and trying to sort through the various sightings to get what they look like facially. I liked reading your post, Tookra and Connie! I have made some strides towards what they look like I believe, but the more input I have from eyewitnesses and especially people that have had more than one and long term ‘relationships’ are, to me, the BEST : )
I will make my next series of drawings soon and will keep everyone’s observations in mind; thanks!!

Autumn:
I think the black light thing would be a must try for sure. Your expertise in these areas are awesome and I thank you for sharing your ideas.

I also wanted to thank you for posting the above drawing of a Bigfoot; that is the bigfoot of witnesses around this area; not the gorilla type we hear so much of; but more the Neanderthal type. In fact this weekend I am going to a place that is very close to the city I live in where a Bigfoot that closely resembles your drawing had been sighted TWICE by the same person. The person described it to me as more a Neanderthal than a gorilla type and that the creature was very curious of him. I need to see this place to visualize what might have caused this Bigfoot to be so curious that he showed him/herself to the same person two times. My witness is a very reliable person and has not told anyone of his experience except for me. We talk daily so I know this person would not lie to me. I am really impatient waiting to get over there and check the place out.

Thank you again.

Connie

When hunting varments at night,we use a red lense.It doesn’t scare varments away.You might give that a try too.

I can say from my own experiences that the ones I’ve experienced have elliptical or slit pupils, and when the pupil dilates it takes up the entire part of the eye where you would normally see color, much the way a house cats eye works. This gives them very natural night vision so they can see easily in places where humans cannot. I can also say that sitting in the woods alone with only the full moon to see by has worked very well as they began letting me see them briefly in broad daylight. A Jane Goodall or Dian Fossey type method has worked best for me and they’ve left things for me in place of the food I’ve left for them. For me the mystery or phenomena really isn’t a mystery anymore. To each his own though right?

Maybe a rule of thumb is if we can see it so can they ,but they can see better.Do any of the sasquatch reports have a mustache and beard like that picture?Im still struggling with the idea that they are a large human,Ron Moreheads vocalization 2 cd set dont sound human,and the arm length from reports are long,which to me take it out of human category.

With regard to hanging up white sheets; completely off topic perhaps, but back in the days of hunting tiger via riding on the backs of elephants, white sheets were one method used to effect a tiger kill. These sheets would be strung up in areas where the tigers were. The elephants and hunters would come riding in basically flushing the tigers out from cover. The tigers would run until they saw the sheets. The sheets were something unfamiliar to the tigers, thus the tigers would avoid going near them even though they were simple flimsy sheets. The sheets basically acted as a barrier to direct the tigers along a certain path whereupon they would become trapped i.e. hemmed in to the point where the hunters could easily effect a kill. PTD

Looking around the Internet briefly, I found a number of suppliers UV visible training powders and oils most often used in HazMat or germ transmission training. Some of these are non-toxic and would be safe to use in a tracing experiment. Not sure whether they would have a perceptible odour or not.

I am thinking that one or more lexan or acrylic vented boxes strategically placed containing objects or food of interest. Lightly dust all sides of the box and the area around it. This would create an opportunity for luminescent prints and traces for a short distance from the immediate area.

With a proper photo setup you should be able to capture high quality images. A little petroleum jelly on some areas of the box might also enhance the transmission of prints and residue.

Of course the trick would be to figure out an effective attractant and proper placement to minimize contamination by other critters. I am sure this would require some trial and error.

If the box was suspended perhaps moving or shaking the box could cause a light dusting to drift down from above and coat the fur. Then after a slight delay motion trigger UV lights and trailcam type photos. It would have to be quick but maybe worth a try. Ideally a synchronized trigger of multiple cameras covering a wide area would be useful.

Even better, you could incorporate video and sound recording devices (perhaps that could reach down into the infrasound range) to add further information.

LOL. If money were no object, oh the things that could be tried…

Cheers,
Carey

The glowing eyes are not reflected light Autumn. Nor do I now believe it is light being emitted by the eyes. What it is, is an electrical signature creating a photonic display. If it is not something one has seen themselves, then it is impossible to imagine. There is an electrical nature to bigfoot and witnessing the glowing eyes is part of understanding it. There is also a sparkled variety of eyeshine which encompasses the entire face, it’s been observed by several folks here in BC.

I like the blacklight technique idea. Will BF “feel” or “smell” the powder?
