Psych Professor chases Bigfoot with a gun

An interesting detail in the story seen here:

David Walsh, a longtime psychology professor at the University of Southern California, reported seeing a Bigfoot in 2002 while hunting wild pigs in the state. Too surprised in the twilight to react as the creature disappeared into the woods that day, Walsh knows what he'll do next time. "I have a rifle in my gun case specifically bought for that purpose," the professor said. [...]

Bigfoot enthusiasts, meanwhile, are still smarting from Ray Wallace's death in 2002, when his family revealed that the famous footprints "discovered" 40 miles north of Willow Creek were a hoax, made with feet carved out of wood. But believers say the hoax doesn't affect the numerous other sightings, credible footprints and other evidence. Still, skeptics wonder why no one has found anything that can be tested for DNA.


Great. not only does he believe in mythical creatures, but his first impulse is to murder one if he spots one again.
