Deer and most large mammals are much more active at night, and are considered nocturnal, but they do move during the day as well. The correct term should be cathemeral, which means the animal is active both night and day. This does require biological adaptations for night vision, which in simple terms are: the presence of the tapetum lucidum, the chemical rhodopsin, millions more rods than cones (rendering it effectively color blind), and very large pupils.<br /><br />If the BF diverged from an ancestral line that eventually led to us, it would have had to have been pre-Neanderthal, and likely well before that in order to have those adaptations. In fact, it would not be too much of a stretch for it to have diverged from the line prior to the loss of night vision in a common ancestor with modern day primates from Madagascar that have it.<br /><br />Homo Heidelbergensis has been considered as a more recent potential candidate, but now it is considered to be the common ancestor for us and Neanderthals, so it is unlikely that it possessed night vision to any real degree without passing it to modern humans.ShawnOnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2925104810508047182.post-71753486176338697562012-04-06T13:56:10.703-07:002012-04-06T13:56:10.703-07:00all speculation till someone comes up with a body ...all speculation till someone comes up with a body like it or not its true and its the only way!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2925104810508047182.post-37474221606714315172012-03-29T15:13:46.448-07:002012-03-29T15:13:46.448-07:00What I am saying is that I think that the light pr...What I am saying is that I think that the light proposed as being created by bigfoots eyes is most probably eyeshine in the conventional sense as is seen in deer, rabbits, foxes, badgers, cats etc. Incidently I have a son who has a contract with local farms to shoot their foxes at night and he is an expert on eyeshine in practical terms which he has shared with me. His scary eyeshine are large greens one occasionaly (in the uk)!<br /><br /> I am not saying bigfoot produces its own light, I am not saying it doesnt,I wasn't there. I am saying it seems highly improbable and the best probable explanation for its reported red eyes is eyeshine.<br /><br /> Regarding the chinese boy, I am inclined to think that he probably has a special gift of seeing in the dark, if he has eyeshine who knows. Nor do I know if he has a tapetum lucidum, nor i think do you. It seems quite possible that there is a latent gene in humans that in the boys case has been switched on giving him a special talent. I know years ago research was done on some native peoples but was stopped because of sensitivities about racism when the research found some important differences. Not as far as I know about night vision but at least the research showed up the possibility of differences.<br /><br /> 'The bigfoot community' are a mixed bunch and if you so desire there are plenty of reasonable people you can listen too and maybe even make a contribution as the discovery of sasquatch progresses. Much like in early days when humans were trying to work out what and wherefore the new apes and humans were, as they were being discovered, like the orang outang, like the gorilla. Where did the african pygmies fit in etc etc. Very interesting times.normanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08417067810162765509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2925104810508047182.post-37515181848535529332012-03-28T06:21:03.815-07:002012-03-28T06:21:03.815-07:00You are confusing "eye shine" from refle...You are confusing "eye shine" from reflection off the back of the eye, equivalent with red-eye from a flash illuminated photograph with "eye shine" in the bigfoot world where bigfoot eyes actually produce their own light and glow.<br /><br />This kid in china doesn't have a tapetum lucidum at the back of the eye, he just has blue eyes or eye albinism. The news story was sensational at best, completely undocumented and unbelievable at worst. <br /><br />Notice how they don't demonstrate the reflections from the back of his eye? something you could do very easily with any camera, just turn off red-eye reduction and snap the kid's picture. But no, no evidence at all, just a news story.<br /><br />But, as all things bigfoot, the slightest news story, no matter how dubious the source, has been sucked into the bigfoot arena and cemented as fact and evidence that bigfoot must have that trait because, hey look, someone reported once upon a time that some kid had that trait.<br /><br />Stick bending, glowing eyes, full fledged language, cross breeding, population densities, physical abnormalities, not-an-ape but a relic human ancestor, the list goes on and on. One little whiff of evidence and the bigfoot community jumps on it and is ready to throw that evidence on the pile of proof.<br /><br />None of this evidence means anything, it's worse than speculation. And there will be no real study of the animal until there's a captured animal to study, dead or alive. You can infer all day long, but in the end, that's all they are, inferences, not evidence.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2925104810508047182.post-67201999046020057412012-03-28T01:00:29.788-07:002012-03-28T01:00:29.788-07:00Yes, I should have said the boy was 'reported&...Yes, I should have said the boy was 'reported' as being able to see in the dark meaning far more than the usual. Similar eyeshine. <br /><br /> How do you know he does not have this special ability? It may well be improbable on the limited facts given but improbable events are a daily occurrence. It is a mistake to confuse improbablity with fact.<br /><br /> Eyeshine is the price paid for enhanced night vision. Not to say it might not have some benefits in itelf. As night vision is common in the wild, something in the boys dna from the past might have been switched on.<br /><br /> As for sasquatch I am in favour of the eyeshine theory.

At night eyes do not GENERATE light at all, but in fact REFLECT the light that is pointed at them. In Canada here we have to be very careful driving at night and to watch out for dear and moose on the roads. Up here we all know we have to watch for what we call "eye shine" as a way to spot them. If we don't we could get killed by moose crashing through our windshields! The dear's and moose's eye don't GENERATE light either. They in fact REFLECT the light from our headlights of our cars. I don't remember what color the dear's eyes reflect because every time I see them I am too concerned about avoiding them. So with that said, just like dear and moose, bigfoots, when flashlights, video camera lights, car headlights, etc. are pointed at a bigfoot (or ANY other mammal for that matter) the light will reflect back towards the source. And since the witness is located right by the light source they WILL see that light REFLECTED in the bigfoot's eyes.<br /><br />Chad WAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2925104810508047182.post-19523807841445455892012-03-27T06:31:30.496-07:002012-03-27T06:31:30.496-07:00Saying something is predominantly nocturnal is not...Saying something is predominantly nocturnal is not contradicted by the fact that a creature is seen during the day.

At that time, they used kerosene lamps and candle lamps for light at night. <br /> She remembers being able to read, do homework and just about anything else with just that light. She also remembers using the outhouse which was some 50 yards from the house and walking to and forth without any lights. <br /> She feels like they were able to see at night better in those days than we can now. Rather that is true or not I can only take her at her word.<br /> I do know that during my military career, we did most of our work at night and when given the chance to adjust, could usually see quite well in the dark. Without the use of flashlights. That being said, I can also remember times when it was so dark, you could not see one foot in front of you. <br /> Could night vision simply be a trait that we all have that simply isn't exercised in these days of electric lights and flashlights.

It was intelligent, well explained, and very thought provoking. I type up hospital cases for a children's hospital and there are all kinds of genetic issues with children from Middle Eastern, African and even Mormon families with consanguinity (inbreeding). They have names for the types of aberrations that occur within bloodlines. Conversely, it's believed that interbreeding with Neanderthals and other more primitive breeds of humans created the immune systems we have. It was crucial. So, if BF is inbreeding, which would be necessary for a small population spread over a large continent, some of this features may be dominant for him, like the thick hairiness and perhaps some congenital issues to. The only other conclusion is that he is so smart in eluding us by occasionally breeding with human stock to create a super set of traits like man's modern immune system (thank you Neanderthal). So far as the eye shine, it seems that any creature dependent on living in a dark rainforest, is likely to need eyes to develop not only to the constant low light levels, but if you've ever been in the Cascades, you know how hard it would be to find anything in that dense environment. You'd have to develop also eyes that can capture movement even out of the corners of his eyes because the only way you identify anything in that forest is movement.
