Interesting. Scientist are always finding new creatures somewhere; and a lot of them are closer to home than you would think. I'm open to the thought, but wonder how many people would mistake a black bear on its hind feet for a big foot.
That sounds like an interesting story about the missing girl, you didn't happen to save the link did you?
It's in one of the 411 books by that famous detective author . . . blocking on his name at present--
DAVID PAULIDES. I think it was the book about the Western USA.
He does NOT accept cases where there's any plausible involvement of wild animals etc. etc. He ONLY deals in cases where there's NO EVIDENCE of 'normal' wild animals.
Evidently there's no mistaking the horrible smell that usually goes with authentic big foot creatures. Nothing like bears etc.One of the characteristics of such cases if often the child will be found on the trail that searchers have passed on multiple times without any sign of the child. Then suddenly, the child is there with no evidence of how the child got there. Usually the child doesn't have any memory or refuses to talk about it all.
And that's with the children found alive. Many are not. But are found several thousand feet and maybe a thousand feet HIGHER in impossible steep high mountain positions for a toddler child to have gotten to.
Often they are found in berry patches or were taken from berry patches.
Often they are found in swamps without their shoes or clothes being wet or muddy.
Often they are found after several days without evidence of being hungry etc. quite mystifyingly.
Sometimes they disappear like "POOF" within 6-15 feet of parents or other trail partners in front of or behind them--sometimes going "POOF" while in view of others--though rarely.
There are a lot more (way beyond statistical chance) of such cases in areas where geographic place names have "devil" in them.
Here's a link to the movie page:

He will no longer go in the field without a gun and a satellite locator/alert beacon that can be immediately triggered.
I think there have been cases of people so abducted who had guns. But none who had both a gun and a locator beacon.
I don't think that's great insurance, depending.
I think it's a spiritual warfare sort of situation, too.
Guy Malone has found that folks who have an active, authentic relationship with Jesus The Christ do not get abducted.
David Paulides used to not discuss the possibility of UFO's being involved. I think he's slightly more open to that possibility, now.
From his website:

. . .
The research depicts 28 clusters of missing people across the continent, something that has never been exposed and was a shocking find to researchers. Topography does play a part into the age of the victims and certain clusters have specific age and sex consistency that is baffling. This is not a phenomenon that has been occurring in just the last few decades, clusters of missing people have been identified as far back as the 1800’s.
The manuscript for the research was extremely large so the story was split between two books, Missing 411 Western United States and Canada and Missing 411 Eastern United States. The Eastern version will be released in late March and will include a list of all missing people in each edition and a concluding chapter that draws both books together for conclusions.
Some of the issues that are discussed in each edition:
• The National Park Service attitude toward missing people
• How specific factors in certain cases replicate themselves in different clusters
• Exposing cases involving missing children that aren’t on any national database
• Unusual behavior by bloodhounds/canines involved in the search process
• How storms, berries, swamps, briar patches, boulder fields and victim disabilities play a role in the disappearance
• The strategies of Search and Rescue personnel need to change under specific circumstances
After reading this book, you will forever walk in the woods with a different awareness.
Reviews:
"Major news organizations do a deplorable job of covering
stories and issues which are deemed too unusual
or too far outside the box. Chances are, they will find a way
to trivialize or ignore the disturbing evidence accumulated
by David Paulides, a former lawman turned investigative
journalist. The paper trail uncovered by Paulides through
sheer doggedness is impressive, the evidence indisputable.
People are vanishing without a trace from our national
parks and forests, yet government agencies are saying nothing.
At a minimum, this story deserves space on the front
page of every newspaper in the country, and it warrants a
formal high level inquiry by the federal agencies whose files
leave little doubt that something very strange is unfolding
in our wilderness."
