NABS believes that it is important to study the history behind a topic to understand the theories that are utilized today. We have been accused by some of utilizing a law enforcement forensic artist to draw "human looking" bigfoot figures. This page will take a walk back into history throughout North America and review what witnesses have stated they've seen, long before NABS was on the scene and in the time frames of when many of the original researchers started their investigations. You determine why NABS has released sketches that show human characteristics...
