Todd is currently on Coast To Coast discussing one of the most important recent issues, The Bugs Story. For 30 Years Art Bell brought the story of Bugs and his traumatic experience to the attention of listeners. When Todd was originally on Coast To Coast back in April Art introduced Todd to Bugs and since Todd has been researching the in's and out's of the situation at hand and how best to bring Bugs' discovery to the world. The importance of this discovery cannot be understated nor how serious Todd is taking the research. Before the 1st commercial break Todd began speaking on Bugs but was cut off before completing his statement. It should be noted that Todd's hypothesis concerning the Bugs' encounter is that the pair was either the last of their tribe, or were outsiders and starving and searching for food out in the open (uncommon for the species). Check back post show for more immediate information & additional discoveries from Todd Standing.

I came as quit a shock out of left field when Art suddenly retired. I hope that contact with bugs in the future is still a possibility. I would like to ask people what they think of the whole bugs story? Do you find him credible?

If you are referring to the interview Art had with the Texas man who claims to have shot and killed 2 hominids (male and female) and currently knows where they are buried, then yes I am familiar with "Bugs."
On a human level, I believed Bugs' story. His description of the events and the way he claimed to feel like he committed "murder" seemed legit. I think the point he's missing now is that it's too late to help them, so he should disclose the location of the burial so that we put this issue to rest and protect them. That would be the only way of regaining some personal redemption and doing something to make sure this doesn't happen again.
However, there is a part of me that feels as though any authorative or mainstream "acceptance" of the existance of these animals would only make it worse for them. The public's "folk lore" perception may be what is preserving the rest of the species.

Quite interesting talk last night, albeit too short. My first impression of Todd is quite positive and agree with his comments and opinions. The animal needs protection ! As soon as it is confirmed and known that this species is known and living, bounty hunters full of ego and machisimo will be going for it. Interestingly, I asked Ted Nugent earlier this year if he thought there was a bigfoot creature. At first, he kind of laughed. Then, he said that he did not believe in it since if it were alive, he would have already killed one. That unfortunately will be the thought of a fair number of adventure hunters, that could wipe out the species in short time.
I'm a 43 year-old banking professional and have long known of the bigfoot history, getting more interested through visits amd second-hand stories of skunkape sightings in Southern Florida in the early 1980s. Todd, I would be interested in assisting you with your expeditions and also doing some US legislative work for protection of the animal. Jay

I'm glad that Todd is following up on the Bug's Story. After listening to Todd's interview back in April, I sent Art Bell the following email:
"Hi Art,
After listening to your show with Todd Standing on April 8th, I wanted to comment on the Bug's Bigfoot story.
Certainly the killing of this Bigfoot couple was a tragic accident, and I understand the reluctance of Bugs to come forward and for you to get involved in a potentially "sticky" legal situation.
Still, as Todd said later in the hour, the only way to prove to the world that Bigfoot really exists is to produce a body. Without this kind of proof, any effort to pass legislation to protect these creatures is probably doomed to failure.
If Bugs could dig up these Bigfoot bones and send them anonymously to a leading Bigfoot researcher like Todd or perhaps Loren Coleman or even Linda Howe, then the onus would be off you to reveal the source of the remains.
You, Art, are in a unique position to help these creatures and I think that you should do whatever is necessary to help facilitate the recovery of these Bigfoot bones.
By proving their existence, this Bigfoot couple will not have died in vain, because their sacrifice would serve to help preserve their species."
I never got a reply to this email, so I don't know if Art even read it or not, but I'm reprinting it here in the hope that maybe Todd could do something to recover the Bigfoot remains for the reasons that I explained in the above email.

In response to the above posts Chachie- I think this species is in it's last hour, that is if they are not already wiped out. We have a very detail plan that we will enact long before we every release any findings that could lead to the demise of the species.
Thank you for your kind words Jay. If you would like to help especially with the protection issue, the gentleman handling that is Ross and you can reach him at ross@sylvanic.com . He is the one that had our petition certified in Canada and he is now working on its US counterpart.
And Dave i can promise you Art never got to your email. After i went on the show in april i received thousands of emails, some of which i have still never got to. And i am not nearly as popular as Art. But remember there is already protection for the species in Skamania in the US. Laws take years to enact, and i know i can give science all the proof it needs, i just need time. I just hope in the end i am not to late.

Well kova my evidence is what i talk about on the videos, chronicles, and hundreds of interviews i have done, and continue to do. So if you won't even take the time to listen before you start calling my work B.S. then i won't take the time to respond to your obvious ignorance and closed mind. People said Darwin was crazy, called Einstein a lunatic. to quote Einstein " great spirits have always encounter violent opposition from mediocre minds" I can find Bigfoot, You can't.

Why you would even take the time to post something shows that you have interest. So take a back seat let Todd and his crew gather the evidence they need to prove the existence, and then jump on the wagon and say you were a believer the whole time, we will let you come on. Good luck to Todd and crew, you know you have my support Jeff

In the coming week we will be posting some of the extraordinary information we have culled over the last few months of the tour. To give you a taste of what is to come I just wanted to share this ACTUAL BIGFOOT WANTED POSTER from January 1980. That's right, there was an actual bounty put out for the Big-guy in Calgary in the 1980's. We received this from a kind follower at our Calgary showing along with a wealth of other information. Though EXTREMELY rare, ( and completely authenticated in the month that followed) this poster was freely GIVEN to us. To ensure that it was preserved it was scanned in immediately and will be available for download by the end of the week ( A Full Sized 11" X 17" Version) again free just as we received it. It is extraordinary that something like this was EVER legitimately done, and proves what Todd has been saying all along. Protection is paramount and with your help we will be able to achieve it. So enjoy the sample and check back through the week for the slideshow showcasing this and many other fascinating images.

Well kova my evidence is what i talk about on the videos, chronicles, and hundreds of interviews i have done, and continue to do. So if you won't even take the time to listen before you start calling my work B.S. then i won't take the time to respond to your obvious ignorance and closed mind. People said Darwin was crazy, called Einstein a lunatic. to quote Einstein " great spirits have always encounter violent opposition from mediocre minds" I can find Bigfoot, You can't. I have watched the few seconds of footage posted on your site and listened to your interviews, do you think that what you have is really enough to convince the average person who lives in the city, has never spent any time in the woods and who lumps bigfoot in with UFO's, ghosts, etc? What I've seen (on this site) is really no different than other BF video's that have been around for a while. It doesn't seem to be anything new or breaking, just another glimpse of some hairy creature running around on two legs and that can be easily blown off (by the average person) as a fake. Just to expound and let you know whay my perspective is, I have spent most of my free time in the woods since I was young. I love to hunt, fish and camp. I have never seen BF, but I have had many experiences in the woods that have left me uncertain as to what happened. Just this past weekend we were camping and I was taking the girls for a walk in the woods at night. The woods are very dark and intimidating at night and I wanted them to feel comfortable, not afraid in and around the woods at night. As we walked through the woods in the dark we looked at things like trees, rocks, etc and how they looked in the dark and then I turned on the flashlight so that they could see what looked scary in the dark was just ordinary things. I also identified the animal sounds that we heard as I think that once you recognize and become familiar with a sound it no longer induces fear. Anywho, all of the animal noises were easy to identify except for some long, disturbing howls that sounded much like the BF recordings found on the internet. Did we hear BF, I dunno. Do I think BF exists? I dunno, but there are a bunch of videos, recordings and eye witness reports that suggest that there may be things out in the woods (and world for that matter) that we do not recognize as existing. I am not saying that I think that you have faked anything, only that I think it may take more than what I have seen to convince the average "Joe six pack". I don't think that sighting reports, fuzzy pictures or brief videos are going to convince people of the existence of BF. Also, there seems to be almost a public fear of acknowledging that BF exists. I'm not sure why people are so afraid to accept that there may be animals out there that we haven't officially discovered....it's almost funny to me. If there was an undocumented species of rodent, would people be so violently opposed to the discovery? But if you suggest that there is some large ape/man creature running around people freak out, LOL! Blah, blah, blah.....Todd, good luck with your work. I hope the best for you and I will be interested in seeing any new (longer and clearer) footage from you or anyone else for that matter. Would love to see them (once proven to exist) protected as it would be a shame to see them needlessly killed.

You are mistaken by my motives here.... I heard Todd on his last C2C apperance and came to this site a while ago. I am suprised they let him come on again, heck i'm suprised a lot of the people that let go on the show more than once....
I am also from alberta, I have spents years in the mountains like Paul and I have never seen or even heard of anyone seeing a BF.
Todd has no evidence, just weak claims at best... All the footage on this site crap. Just becuase some cheif on some reservation tells you a tall tale, doesn't make you an expert.
your work is aimed at getting governmental legislated protection for BF, but you have NO proof they exist. You make it sound like BF is some mystical creature that can only be found when they want to be found OR only by you. Why are you so special?
They roam in packs you say??? this should make them easier to find should it not? But they have some super duper mystical cloacking device, right???
I will state my stance on the subject... I beleive their could be BF roaming somewhere in teh world, but without proof and some evidence you aren't going to get anyone jumping on this bandwagon. You just talk out your ass... you should look up michael tsarion. You sound just like this guy.... You both have a great imagination.

Are you sure this wasn't a joke... A big foot, in calgary? really? If I find a bigfoot, I think I could probably get well over 1 million for it...
