In a recent video from the YouTube channel BIGFOOT! / William Jevning, host and two-time witness William Jevning discusses the challenges of observing primates, specifically chimpanzees, without being detected. The conversation was sparked by a question from a viewer named Tracy, who asked about the ease of sneaking up on a chimpanzee and observing it without it becoming aware of one's presence.
Jevning explains that, while it is possible for a human to sneak up on a solitary chimpanzee, it would be extremely difficult to do so with a group or troop, as they have lookouts posted to ensure the safety of the group. He also notes that humans are not as skilled at sneaking up on animals as other animals are, due to our clumsiness and loudness in the woods.
The discussion then turns to the sensitivity of a chimpanzee's sense of smell, with Jevning explaining that, while their sense of smell is not as strong as a dog's, they are still very aware of the smells in their surroundings. This leads to a comparison between the behavior of chimpanzees and Sasquatches, with Jevning noting that Sasquatches also use juveniles as early warning systems and that they, too, are sensitive to the smells in their environment.
I found this video to be informative and thought-provoking. The comparison between the behavior of chimpanzees and Sasquatches is particularly interesting, as it highlights the similarities between these two elusive creatures. I encourage all Bigfoot enthusiasts to check out the video and share their thoughts with the community.
