Do You Smell That? What Is That? Geez, It Stinks!


Sometimes a very foul smelling odor is associated with bigfoot encounters, but where does it come from? Is it a gland like a skunk has? Is it just really bad body odor? They don't have showers and deodorant. Maybe it's just a really bad case of halitosis.

"Canadian retired journalist and Bigfoot researcher John Green says that only about 10% of Sasquatch sightings are connected with a strong smell. It is this distinctive stench that separates Bigfoot from the other cryptids. Now, the question is, why the smell? Why does this happen when a sighting occurs?

The answer could be as simple as a defense mechanism. Similarly to the skunk, mountain gorillas are now known for emitting an intense odor. Anthropologist Dian Fossey recorded this fact in 1993. When frightened, she said, “the hair on each male’s headcrest stood erect and an overpowering fear odor permeated the air“.

In 1997, Dr. W. Fahrenbach, a retired biologist from the Oregon Primate Center, referred to George Schaller description of the gorilla’s hormonal release: “a mix of sweat, manure, charred wood and burning rubber”. This odor, he explained, emanates from the axillary organ, which is located in the armpit."

  1. Once and for all....Bigfoot uses a skunks spray gland, on it's self to hide their own scent when hunting game. Smart if you ask me.
