Bad idea.
The more beers you drink, the more and more uncle Joe looks like a Sasquatch.
If it was no threat to me or anyone in my group I'd it let be.... Me personally, I'd hate to have that guilty conscience of being labelled the "crazy gun loven' hunter" that shot and killed possiblely the only living Sasqutch on this planet.
But.... I'd shoot it with me Olympus pocket camera

No, cause its something else , maybe a person !
Would I shoot a sasquatch?...........Umm, dunno, what do they taste like?
Besides I only shoot a 30.06, probably not big enough.
If we met accidently and I had the drop on him(with the .375)nothing would happen,but if he licked his lips and rolled his eyes at me It's ON!

...and back at camp a fellow CGN'er is asking:
Is a .30-06 is enough for sasquatch? ...or do I need one of those new thumpin' .375 Rugers? I scare easily and am afraid of the strange noises and shapes I see in the bush. Sometimes I drink heavily and my mind goes off the deep end and owls sound like wild sasquatches mating. Is the .375 too much gun? Will the .30-06 make enough noise and give enough recoil to make me feel safe?
So many questions...so many questions! I want to hear from someone who's encountered those big hairy snarling ape like creatures!
In the meantime my bunker is dug, the trip lines are set and my arsenal is ready! Now if I can just make it throught the night... I'll get him I tell you..I'll get him...
Golly no, I only carry a 30-06!
I'm proud of all you 'Nutz
; all these posts (mine is # 150! ) and not one mention of the .17HMR or the .270.....P.S. My sis was supposed to go to African Lion Safari today with her care-facility clients...I offered her my .303, but she says that's frowned upon....

Meh you can still run em down with your car and if you're lucky stuff em in the trunk before anyone notices. (Isn't a zebra included in the price of admission anyway?)P.S.

If you get caught just tell em you brought it from home!
I say again, Hell yes. ide drop him like he's hot.

Just an aside, one of my father's navy buddies was a navigator on a Tracker, and during fish enforcement/soverignty aerial patrols in the Maritimes, the aircrew used to count & use the rising smoke columns from stills, as an extra aid for navigation. This was predominantly on PEI only, his words.
During those innocent days (1970s) unless the aircraft commander was a real d&*k, not too many suspected sites,were reported to the RCMP.
Hell are there still that many 'stills in spudland?

Well Maple, from the responses I'd say the risk is too great, you'd better remain in seclusion.
Wow! I didn't know this thread was still alive!
I'm clean shaven, so I don't have to worry about being mistaken for a Sasquatch.
The yays are ahead of the nays in all categories.
I think a .30-06 pushing a 180gr. SP at 2700 FPS would ruin Sasq's day.
I wouldn't say so, but it still wouldn't be hard to find one.
My father tells me years ago, it was common for boats(fishermen) to run ashore below the local bootlegger's house to run up and grab a bottle or two. Or they'd pool their money and send a boat to Souris to pick up liquor for the rest of them.
All this was before my time
If it hasn't negotiated reservation land along with mineral and forestry rights by now and its just willy nilly walking around eating blueberries, it doesn't deserve to live.
