Ditto. A bear will stand up, and claw, and bite, and urinate around the tree. So the claw marks are up higher, and are usually all vertical. However, Sasquatch ......
OOh, speaking of, I was reading an article about Alaska, and there is a section, in a marshy boggy area, where there are fairly large dead cedar trees upside down, jammed into the marsh, with the roots, on top and the top of the tree jammed into the ground. There are no tracks of a machine, that would be needed to do such a thing. Like I said the trees are fairly large, more than a man or two could even lift, let alone jam upside down, into the ground. It showed pictures of the areas, and the trees. The guy writing the story, said his Indian guide, said, that they believe it is the Sasquatch marking their territories, and showing how bad they are, by putting some pretty big dead trees up side down in the ground. I think I would just go around that area.
