[[Secular Science|Secular science]] has never confirmed the the existence of the sasquatch as a real animal in its own right. Most scientists regard the sasquatch, along with the [[Loch Ness Monster]] of [[Scotland]] and the [[Yeti]] of the [[Himalayas]], as one of the most famous animals of cryptozoology. Eyewitness accounts are dismissed  as either a series of hoaxes or misinterpretation of something else. The ''gigantopithecus'' is regarded by science to have been a quadruped, not bipedal like the sasquatch. Critics of the Skookum body cast , including several members of BFRO, considered what was recovered to be the impression of an elk.

Many Scientists often take an approach to cryptozoology which is very similar to their [[environmental alarmism]]. This was aptly summed up by [[Richard Lindzen]]: "Essentially if whatever you are told is alleged to be supported by 'all scientists,' you don't have to understand [the issue] anymore. You simply go back to treating it as a matter of religious belief." <ref>http://www.cdfe.org/global_warming_religion.htm</ref>
