Canadian Bigfoot Researcher Thomas Steenberg Shares Insights from 40 Years of Zoological Investigations

In a recent episode of the Bigfoot Society podcast, host Jeremy talks with Canadian Sasquatch researcher Thomas Steenburg, who has been investigating the elusive creature since 1978. Steenburg, who prefers the term "Sasquatch" over "Bigfoot," is strictly zoological in his approach and does not entertain paranormal or supernatural explanations. During the interview, Steenburg discusses his three published books and two co-authored books, including "Meet the Sasquatch," which he worked on with the late John Green and Christopher Murphy. This book is considered a must-have reference material for anyone interested in the history of Sasquatch research. Steenburg also talks about his co-authored book "Sasquatch in British Columbia," which covers the history of Sasquatch in the province from the 1700s to 2012. He shares that they had to leave out a lot of material due to the book's large size. As a side note, did you know that the term "cryptozoology" was not commonly used until the late 20th century? It refers to the study of hidden or unknown animals, such as Sasquatch, and was first coined by Belgian zoologist Bernard Heuvelmans in 1959. Going back to the interview, Steenburg shares his thoughts on the infamous Patterson-Gimlin film, which he believes was developed at the Ford motion picture lab in Seattle, Washington. He also talks about his early interest in Sasquatch, which was sparked by a Reader's Digest article on the Loch Ness monster when he was a child. Steenburg's passion for Sasquatch research is evident in his thorough and well-researched books.
