Global Warming and Bigfoot

November 20th, 2008 by RK | Filed under Cryptozoology

So first, you need to believe in Global Warming.

Second, you have to believe in Bigfoot.

Now entertain this, a biologist, Mike Hickerson suggests over a couple drinks at Manhattan’s Alphabet City, that global warming might be causing Bigfoot to move north. Hickerson, who studies “biogeographic shifts, speciation, extinction and determinants of community assembly,” is doing research on what’s called environmental niche modeling. Basically, study one set of animals or plants and compare with geographical and climate data to find out where to expect other similar animals or plants.

Could this be applied to bigfoot?

Could climate changes force bigfoot north?

  2. [...] If you are part of the ‘nessie is a left over plesiosaurs’ crowd, could something like global warming finally catch up with this creature that survived the Cretaceous–Tertiary extinction event? Never mind that Loch Ness is only about 10,000 years old and Nessie would have had to survive much more extreme climate changes in the last 65 million years. Global Warming’s affect on cryptozoological creatures has been debated before. [...]
