the location i live in california is supposed to a be a bigfoot hotspot. i was born and raised here (eureka area) and know of no one who ever saw a sasquatch. i do know a small town (willow creek) that uses bigfoot to attract tourists. as far as cougar i seen three of them. once deer hunting at about 1000 am. once at about 4am in a remote area (petrolia). lastly just off of us 101 near garberville at about 1 am. does oregon and washington have the extreme problem with cougar like california. as bears i have seen 50 -60 of em. i had to build a wooden box to put my trash cans in to keep them out of them
