Bigfoot Killers

Bigfoot Killers
In a secretive US military company of 110 elite special forces soldiers—divided into 10 teams of riflemen, snipers, and K9 units—formed under President Lyndon B. Johnson in the 1960s following the Patterson-Gimlin Bigfoot film, the narrator details a half-century of hunting North America's deadliest cryptids. Evolving from Project Blue Book researchers to hardened operators after confirming the threats of "things that go bump in the night," the unit conducts covert missions across the continental US (and occasionally abroad) to eliminate hostiles like Bigfoot, Dogmen, and even extraterrestrials while rescuing civilians. Supported by on-site scientists and advanced IT/satellite guidance, they've eliminated over 200 Bigfoots and several Dogmen in the past two decades, often capturing specimens alive for transport to undisclosed sites. Key missions highlight the perils:

• Texas Ranch Raid: A full-company op targeted an injured rogue male Bigfoot slaughtering cattle; snipers downed it effortlessly, revealing a broken leg likely from trauma, before airlifting the carcass.
• New Mexico Grey Encounter: Responding to harassment of an official, the team cornered a elusive, mind-manipulating Grey alien on secluded land. Firearms failed against its elastic, cartilaginous body; hand-to-hand combat with knives finally severed its head, bagging the hairless, putty-like corpse for extraction—the narrator's most dreaded foe.
• Michigan Dogman Hunt (2018): All units mobilized after a high-ranking officer's relative was eviscerated, uncovering two more hunter victims. Guided by IT to funnel the demonic-seeming, near-unstoppable beast into a kill zone, the team unleashed overwhelming firepower, defying orders to capture it alive.
• Kentucky-Indiana Bigfoot Jamboree (2020): Amid a missing boy in Land Between the Lakes and sightings near Mammoth Cave (where some escaped underground), nine more Bigfoots were herded via IT to a wildlife area. The unit orchestrated inter-group battles, using claymores and gunfire to eliminate most, pursuing a lone escapee into Shawnee National Forest over three days.

The narrator shares cryptid insights: Bigfoots form protective family groups (harmless unless provoked), but rogue male packs pose the greatest threat, exhibiting tree-climbing agility, human influence, and brutal kills (e.g., impaling a hunter 20 feet up, blamed on a "tree stand fall"). Juveniles occasionally abduct children out of curiosity, while injured elders turn predatory. Dogmen, by contrast, evoke supernatural dread with their resilience and savagery. As the company faces deployment to Europe—amid rumors of new threats—the soldier pens this from a library during weekend leave, reaffirming his oath to defend against domestic and foreign horrors. He vows to share European tales if he returns intact.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:08):
I am part of a classified project within the US
military hunting some of the deadliest creatures roaming North America.
I'm one of one hundred and ten soldiers handpicked from
the best of the best in special forces. Some are
rookies and some are in their second or third reenlistment,
and some of us are career Within this company, we

(00:31):
have ten teams, each consisting of nine riflemen, one sniper,
and one k nine. Usually two teams are stationed on
one base at a time, spread across the country. As
a company, we work on several missions each year. Our
primary mission is to seek and eliminate hostels and recover civilians.

(00:54):
Most of our assignments are in the continental United States,
but we have worked outside the country on several occasions.
Our company was first formed during President Lyndon B. Johnson's
term in office. He had a keen interest in finding
and proving the existence of the sort of critters we've
been charged to hunt. Following the Patterson Gemlin film, he

(01:18):
issued an executive order to establish a task force as
part of Project Blue Book. Before the Air Force shut
down that program, we survived and over the years transitioned
into the company we are today. We evolved from a
team of scientists and researchers into a team of special

(01:39):
forces after research proved that things that go bump in
the night are real and they pose a serious threat.
We still have scientists working with our company, but they
are rarely caught in the field. On more than one occasion,
someone on my team has mentioned one of your episodes
saying we were there, or I remember that place. One

(02:02):
of the stories took place in British Columbia, and I
believe it was one of our companies on loan to
Canada that took part in the operation. Our guys say,
these mounties are spoiled getting to ride horses when we
have to foot it into our destinations more times than not,
or drop in by parachute into complete darkness. On several missions,

(02:26):
we captured multiple bigfoots alive, including most of the infants
and toddlers and several females, and once an alpha male
who stood over eleven feet tall. We had to hit
him with three rhino tranquilizer darts before he finally keeled over.
Even then, he wasn't totally knocked out, just knocked out enough. Unfortunately,

(02:50):
taking him alive cost us two very good soldiers. The
first two darts had no effect on him. Because someone
high up in the chain of command wanted him alive.
We were not allowed to use deadly force, not even
when he started killing our team. He was bound, bagged,
and sent to one of three locations, like all the

(03:12):
others we capture from memory. Our teams have eliminated several
dog men over the past twenty years, but we've taken
many more bigfoot over two hundred to be exact, which
are more abundant by comparison. We were once sent to Texas,
and as usual, the brass was eager to keep our

(03:33):
presence on the low down. It was to be a
quick in and out operation. We would roll into the
area about one hundred, surround the target before three hundred,
have the big guy bagged and tagged by five hundred,
and be out of the area by sunrise. This creature
was a rogue male who had been slaughtering cattle and

(03:56):
exotic game animals at a large ranch. Once we landed
and got to the location, it lit him up. We
surrounded him while he was resting, and when we were
in range, the canines were given the command to bart.
He popped up like a jack in the box, and
our snipers took him out. Not much of a challenge

(04:17):
but effective and a whole lot of overkill to call
the entire company in for a job, since we could
have taken him down with one team. You never really
know what or why the brass makes the decisions that
they do. Once he was down, we saw that he
had a broken leg and ribs, probably from being hit

(04:38):
by a truck or a train, or maybe from a
fight with one of his own. We figured that's why
he had taken to hunting livestock, since it would be
easy for a creature of his size, even injured. We
dragged him out to the clearing, where the Huey swept
in with a heavy cargo net and scooped him up
and flew him off. Our next orders took us to

(05:01):
New Mexico. Apparently an elected official was being harassed by
some kind of creature on his land and the police
hadn't been able to help. There was a rumor that
it was a gray or white extra terrestrial, which automatically
called for the entire company to be present. The property
consisted of a secluded home on twenty acres miles away

(05:25):
from any neighbors. We had been recounting the area for
the better part of the evening when just about midnight,
one of the teams spotted it and confirmed that it
was in fact a gray. We were immediately placed on
the highest level of alert. It wasn't the first time
we had encountered one, but we had never successfully taken

(05:47):
one out. They are elusive and difficult to kill, and
like playing with our heads. We surrounded it and closed
the circle to about a two hundred yard perimeter, tightening
it slowly, our green lights and weapons ready. When the
guy to your right and the guy to your left moved,

(06:08):
you stood still. Thirty seconds later you moved and they
stood still. That way, there was always a stationary set
of eyes on alert, watching the surrounding in each other's backs. Now,
our canines could not smell the gray, and it couldn't
pick it up on satellite imagery. But one of the

(06:28):
canines must have walked right up to it without seeing it,
because it burst out, slashing the dog and the handler
and causing significant harm to both. We stepped in and
put enough cartridges into it to push it back, but
it had an elastic skeletal structure that kept it from
being seriously injured. Since the firearms were not achieving the

(06:52):
desired results, the soldiers closest drew their k bars and
went hand to hand, eventually containing it and eliminating it.
With enough hands on the creature, we were able to
sever its head. There was no blood. Its skin was transparent.
It's a dirty, light gray without any hair at all.

(07:15):
The eyes were large and jet black, with no white
surrounding the pupils. Its body structure was what stuck with
me the most. It was all cartilage. It was like
holding onto a rope and putty mixed together. The arms
and legs were long and gangly, and the head could
be smashed flat and then spring back to its original shape.

(07:37):
Once it was over, we scooped it up in an
oversized heavy duty plastic bag and handed it off to
the Huey. Out of all the critters we've seen, that's
one monster I never want to encounter again. It's just
a suspicion of mine, but one founded on some experiences.
I'd like to forget that. Unlike Bigfoot, which sees to

(08:00):
have evolved naturally, dog Man is part demonic, its ability,
its appearance, and its impossibility to be killed. Something's not
normal about all that. The last one we dealt with
was in twenty eighteen in the up of Michigan. All
the units were called in because the relative of a

(08:21):
high ranking military officer had been found torn apart. His
guts were ripped out and consumed by something other than
the local predators. We found two more bodies on location
once we arrived. They appeared to be a father and
a son deer hunting and must have shot the creature,
which fought back instead of fleeing. The brass's relative was

(08:45):
unfortunately in the wrong place at the wrong time. We
could never have found this killer on our own, so
the boys in IT were calling the shots. The IT
teams got us using satellites. They communicate to us the
direction of travel, intercept points, and even potential ambush locations.

(09:07):
The soldiers are remarkable and smarter than most people that
I've ever met, and they have protected us from harm
more times than I can count. The dog Man must
have realized it was in danger, because when we started
tracking it, it attempted to elude us. We had our
soldiers spread thinner than ever before, which was dangerous in

(09:28):
the sense that you would be on your own for
a few minutes, and if you needed back up. Our
guardian in the sky kept us alert and safe by
tracking it, directing us into a funnel formation, and pushing
the beast with the canines. If it attempted to make
a break between our lines, we were directed to close
ranks and keep it on track. It kept moving down

(09:53):
our funnel until it reached the highest concentration of our men,
who sprung the trap and unloaded their weapons into it.
Now while they gave it hell, most of us arrived,
each of us thinking the same thing. There was a
fifty to fifty chance the brass would fill our ears
at the last minute and order us to take it alive.

(10:15):
That thing could have taken more than half of us out,
even in its seriously injured state. Knowing this, every single
one of us unloaded our weapons into it until it
was a bloody pile of fur, teeth and bone. In
twenty twenty, we were on the western side of Kentucky.
A young boy came up missing in the land between

(10:37):
the lakes area, and we put a lid on it Quickly.
Four of our teams who happened to be at Fort
Campbell arrived just in a couple of hours and put
enough pressure on the abductor that had abandoned its prize
and it fled. And at the same time, there was
a sighting near Mammoth Cave. Two teams were flown in
from Florida to deal with them. Fortunately, one of the

(11:00):
teams started to put pressure on the creatures and they
escaped underground. It was useless to us at that point,
and since we're not fond of being tunnel rats and
there are way too many things that can go wrong underground,
we were forced to call the hunt off, but the
night wasn't over. We were sent north instead to Posey County, Indiana,

(11:25):
in the swampy areas along the Ohio River. The IT
team had lit up nine beasts. This was beginning to
seem like a bigfoot jamboree. We got orders to push
these animals to central locations along the Western Kentucky Parkway
known as the Peabody Wildlife Area and eliminate them. This

(11:47):
operation took us two days to pull off, and it
didn't come together exactly as we anticipated. We ended up
guiding a group from LBL directly to the path of
the nine spotted in Indiana and stood back and watched
as they tore into each other like warring gangs. We
let them go at it until they were all exhausted,

(12:09):
and the smaller group tried to back out. At that point,
we engaged them. When the firing started, the other group fled,
and to our delight, they ran directly into some claymore traps,
taking out all but one and giving the team who
flew in from the southeast some target practice. One of
the smaller males from the LBO group got away and

(12:32):
fled north across the Ohio River. That resulted in another
three days of us following him until we finally took
him out in the Shawnee National Forest. Most of these
creatures travel in family groups, and they are harmless, only
wanting to be left alone. But we've seen time and
time again that young or juvenile males are curious about

(12:56):
children or women and will on occasion take them. We
have also encountered other males who kill livestock or humans
for consumption when they are injured or no longer able
to hunt. These creatures will battle to the death to
protect their family groups, and when a younger male challenges

(13:16):
and defeats an alpha male, he will kill or run
off all the younger males of the troop to eliminate
threats and start breeding the females sooner. The most dangerous
bigfoots are the groups of rogue males who have banded together.
They travel quickly and constantly, causing tremendous harm to humans

(13:37):
and livestock. One group was pursuing hunters in Pennsylvania. They
had taken one man, snapped him in half, and shoved
him into the fork of a tree twenty feet up
in the air. Fish and Wildlife told the press that
he fell out of his tree stand and speaking of trees,
these creatures spend more time off the ground than people think,

(14:01):
especially during the day. Bigfoot also has some ability to
influence people without making them feel threatened. Often when we
talk to children, they tell us Bigfoot just wanted to
show them something, or that Bigfoot only wanted to play. Yesterday,
we were called to Andrews Air Force Space and told

(14:22):
that our company is being deployed to Europe. I hope
it will turn out to be a waste of time
and that we will be sent back home soon. We
have been given leave for the weekend to get our
affairs in order, and while other soldiers are drinking and
spending time with loved ones. I'm sitting in a public
library typing this letter. I'm not sure what will happen

(14:45):
in Europe, but I have taken an ode to the
Constitution to protect this country from threats, both foreign and domestic.
I believe what this company has been doing for the
past fifty some years is exactly that. I'd like to
write more, but the library is closing and they are
running me out. If I return in one piece, maybe

(15:07):
I'll share what we encountered in Europe. I've heard some
rumors and know it will be interesting.
