Well, now, let's think. Here's Bigfoot, 14 feet of proteinaceous yummy
mass. Obviously, such a mass of yummy protein attracts predators --
Bigbears (which are carnivorous), Bigwolves, Biggereagles. But it has
cells, too, Bigfoot does -- big cells. These clearly have Bigviruses.
Bigfoot's teeth have Bigplaque and Bigcavities. How did it get to the New
World? By tromping across the as yet not fully dry Bering Straits mud
bridge -- ooze,slurp,ooze, slurp for many miles. After a while, when the
smallfoot people came over by land, they sooner or later noticed Bigfoot
and stampeded them like walruses over cliffs into the Pacific and into
canyons. That's why we haven't found Bigfoots (not Bigfeet -- that's a
different species): they're buried under all the other debris.

In brief, Bigfoot is a snapshot taken by the modern world of a life and
place that Once Existed. Bigfoot is a symbol of Wilderness still at
large, still at bay, still undefeated. Such sadness and such yearning...
