How about Sasquatch hunting as a retirement project?

I've just read about a man in his 70s who has a PhD in wildlife biology, and is searching for Sasquatch evidence.

What a wonderful project for retirement... and he has the credentials to be taken seriously if he finds more evidence. Unfortunately, as the article says, no one believes in the evidence that has been gathered so far. Actual DNA evidence is what scientists are looking for before they believe the Sasquatch is real.

Of course, in August 2012, scientists announced evidence for the discovery of 2 new pre-human species so it's not a matter of "we've found all there is to find" in terms of us monkeys who walk upright. There were many species that led up to us, maybe even more than we know about now.

In September 2012, scientists announced a new monkey species had been found living in the Congo. So there are new living monkey species to be found, even now.

I think it may be possible that there is another species of us monkeys that lives in the forests of B.C. They're just not sociable enough to want to make contact with us. Can't blame them really, we're apparently a lot shorter than them, and we likely smell funny to them - apparently they smell funny to us, so the same is probably true on their side. And they may "whoop" to each other to communicate, but some of us babble incessantly, talking to each other without ever "communicating" anything. So much noise, so little communication. So I'm not surprised they haven't popped round for tea. But maybe this retired PhD can find them! He's probably pretty good at that whole "communication" thing.
