Conference Presentation to Biology Professionals

John A. Bindernagel is a wildlife biologist who has sought evidence for Bigfoot since 1963.

He published a book in 1998 entitled North America’s Great Ape: the Sasquatch.

Bindernagel grew up in Ontario, attended the University of Guelph,and received a PhD in Biology from the University of Wisconsin–Madison. He moved to British Columbia in 1975 largely because the region was a hot spot for Bigfoot sightings. Over the years, he has collected casts of tracks that he believes belongs to Bigfoot. He also claims to have heard the creature near Comox Lake in 1992, comparing its whooping sound to that of a chimpanzee. Bindernagel believes that the Bigfoot phenomena should receive more attention from serious scientists, but has remarked, “The evidence doesn’t get scrutinized objectively. We can’t bring the evidence to our colleagues because it’s perceived as tabloid.”

    Hi John What a great lesson on Sasquatch. I like your field page. I hope you make that field guide page available to the public. I can see many people with page in hand searching for Sasquatch! Jack McCarty

    I recently noted Dr. Bindernagel was having medical issues. He looks well in the video, and it is good to see him!
    I sent him a card stating my personal appreciation for his work especially in attempting to get science interested or at least acknowledge the subject.
    Nice going Dr. Bindernagel!

    I’m really surprised they invited him to make his presentation. I would have enjoyed being in the audience and seeing and hearing how these biology professionals took to what he was saying.

    What a wonderful episode. Mr Bindernagel reminds me of my Father in law here in the U.K. He too is a biologist.
    Wes, keep going…. you’ve unintentionally created another facet to the subject, the aspect of frustration and wonder of why we don’t have more evidence.
