Exploring Bigfoot Legends in the Great Smoky Mountains: Caution and Survival

A recent video posted on YouTube by the channel Missing Persons Mysteries has been making waves in the Bigfoot community. The video, titled "Feral Humans in our National Parks???", explores the theory that there may be wild, feral humans living in the depths of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The video begins by discussing the numerous reports of "wildmen" and "feral cannibals" that have been reported in the park over the years. These range from sightings of hairy, human-like creatures to entire families or groups of inbred individuals who are said to live deep in the woods and dress in animal skins. One particularly intriguing theory presented in the video is that these wild, feral people may be responsible for the unexplained disappearances that have occurred in the park, including the case of six-year-old Dennis Martin, who vanished near the Cades Cove area in 1969. The video also touches on the possibility that these wild, feral people may actually be Bigfoot or Sasquatch, as there have been numerous sightings of these creatures in the Appalachian region. Retired park ranger and legendary tracker Dwight McCarter, who was involved in the search for Dennis Martin, is quoted in the video as admitting that there are wild men living in the park. The video also explores the idea that these wild, feral people may not be human at all, but rather inbred and untamed humans who have lived their entire lives in the woods. These individuals are said to be hostile to outsiders and have been known to kill and even eat interlopers. The video also brings up the case of Eric Robert Rudolph, also known as the Olympic Park Bomber, who managed to evade the FBI for five years while hiding out in the Nantahala National Forest, which is located near the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The video also references a recent flurry of YouTube videos and social media posts about feral people living in national parks and forests, as well as a chilling TikTok video from a user named Ariel who claims to have heard screams and cries for help while camping at the Big Bend National Park in West Texas. The video concludes by urging caution and vigilance for anyone planning to venture into the woods, and encourages viewers to take precautions and be prepared for the unexpected. As a Bigfoot believer and a curator for Squatchable, I found this video to be both fascinating and thought-provoking. While the theory of feral humans living in national parks is certainly intriguing, I believe that there is also the possibility that these creatures may be Bigfoot or Sasquatch. Regardless of what these creatures may be, it is important for us as Bigfoot believers to approach this topic with an open mind and a healthy dose of skepticism. While the evidence presented in the video is certainly compelling, it is important to remember that it is ultimately up to us to decide what we believe. I encourage all of our readers to watch the video and form their own opinions on this fascinating topic. And as always, I look forward to hearing your thoughts and comments on this video. Please remember to be respectful of the opinions of others, as one opinion is just as valid as another until we have solid research and answers.
