Our Research

As indicated by the organization’s name, the Texas Bigfoot Research Conservancy is ultimately concerned with the protection of the sasquatch and its habitat. However, before that can happen, the species must be documented and officially recognized. That is where the research aspects of the TBRC come into play. Documentation efforts include following up on submitted sasquatch sighting reports by interviewing witnesses and searching sighting locales for evidence. Witness observations can sometimes provide details regarding sasquatch anatomical or behavioral characteristics.

In addition, reliable sighting report location coordinates, taken as a whole, provide insights into species distribution patterns. Statistical analyses by Peter Aniello, an expert at evaluating geospatial data, reveal a variety of statistically significant ecological preferences for the species. We believe that such studies will provide land managers with valuable data when the time comes to draft species recovery plans and/or state plans for conservation and management.

The Methodology page goes into more detail regarding research techniques and rationale. It concludes with a brief paragraph addressing the TBRC’s focus on obtaining clear photographic documentation of the sasquatch. A more complete report regarding an ongoing camera project is presented in the Projects category.

Although primates are not known for an acute sense of smell, the TBRC uses various scent lure oils from time to time with camera traps.
