A Tale of two casts

| Frank Siecienski and Steve Kulls |
In November 2006, while on a night surveillance near Fort Anne, Steve Kulls uncovered a 14 inch by 6 inch. What Steve discovered 5 years later blew his mind.
According to Steve Kulls, this is what happened on one of those wild expeditions in 2006:
"We entered the area, around dusk and walked in about a quarter of mile, the whole time scanning the ground for prints and we found nothing. After about 30 minutes of provocation calls, we all began to hear something walking around us. Then it hit us. This very pungent and unforgettable smell, like something skunky, musty and dead all rolled into one. It was something I never smelled before or again until two days later in a different area, tracking what I was about to find.Last summer Steve learned about a Bigfoot researcher from Vermont named Frank Siecienski. Frank had a cast print that was within two miles from where he had found his footprint, some two and a half years later, in 2009. Frank's footprint cast had the exact same dimension as the one Steve found earlier.
It was also noted a growl, unlike a coyote was heard by one of the team back at the vehicles.
At that point it was decided that we should grab our night vision equipment. While exiting the area, no less than one hundred feet down the trail was a fresh track. So we immediately set out to cast it.
We returned two days later to uncover several other tracks leading up to where the first track found was cast. After tracking it for a two hundred yards or so the smell returned, but only briefly."
What's more striking were the similarities between the toes. "The truly amazing thing is the 2006 cast had a very interesting toe anomaly, which upon examination, the 2009 cast had as well, meaning the prints had come from the same creature. The heels and length both matched, and the toe splays were different, again indicating this was something biological," said Steve.
This meant two things. Steve believes that whatever made these footprints was not a hoaxer and the toe anomaly suggests something biological may be roaming this part of Fort Anne.

After just stumbling onto this article, I would like to make some points crystal clear. I belong to the NSRS and the track that Frank Siecienski is holding was not cast by him at all but by another member of the NSRS organization, of which Frank was a previous member. Frank left our organization when we did not jump on board his "mother bigfoot holding a baby" photo after a thorough investigation of the site just a day after the photo was taken. There was absolutely no evidence whatsoever of any tracks, hair samples, broken vegetation in the very thick underbrush surrounding the tree that the game camera was mounted on, or any other evidence for that matter.
ReplyDeleteAt that time, Steve Kulls became involved with Frank Siecienski and jumped at the chance to advertise his photograph as the photographic evidence that be the "game changer" in the Bigfoot community regarding game camera proof of bigfoot's existence. Really Steve? That certainly smacks of Tom Biscardi who indeed was a very good friend of yours with whom you did various investigations prior to the BIG HOAX!!! As a matter of fact, the cast you are holding in the phot above is one that was found while out on a night excursion with Tom Biscardi no less. Frank is taking credit for finding and casting a track that he didn't and you're taking credit for being out on this wild night of adventure and taking credit for the whole shebang! Director Bill Brann of the NSRS was responsible for that track, not you Steve Kulls. NSRS did the follow up on that area as well of which you were involved, so don't try to deny that. Neither Frank or Steve are the world-renowned famous researchers that they would love the bigfoot community to believe them to be.
As an aside, Steve told me to my face that he had to read a book about Nessie on the flight over to Scotland for the National Geographic episode in which he presented himself as a knowledgable Cryptozoologist in order to be able to speak about the creature at all without looking stupid. Way to go! Now, that's something to be proud of!
