From the Coast to Coast AM archives, you're listening to the best of Art Bell.
This program originally aired June 5th, 2001.
Please do not call.
art bell
From the high desert in the great American Southwest, I bid you all good evening or good morning or afternoon, wherever you may be across this great land of ours from In the West, Guam, the island of the Rock, East River, the Caribbean and the U.S. Virgin Islands, South into South America, North all the way to the Pole and worldwide.
The old internet, this is Coast, Coast AM, and I'm Art Bell.
Glad to be with you.
It's going to be quite a programme tonight.
Coming up in a moment.
Some years ago, I interviewed a fellow named Bugs who claimed that he shot two creatures that he thinks might have been Bigfoot.
On my webcam, you will see a map.
Bugs has sent me a map of the burial location of whatever these creatures are.
I don't know that I like that kind of responsibility.
We'll ask Bugs here in a minute why he's sent it.
Robert W. Morgan, who is a premier Bigfoot investigator here in the U.S., and I thought he ought to listen to Bugs' story this time as we listen to it once again.
And maybe he has some questions that I forgot to ask.
Pretty serious subject, and why only half a map?
Well, that's obvious.
First of all, we've got a map to the burial location of two creatures.
We'll decide as the program wears on what it is these creatures are.
I'm going to introduce two people to you right now.
One is Robert W. Morgan.
Robert, are you there?
robert w morgan
Listening with both ears.
art bell
You are there.
Okay.
Let's see.
The first thing you wanted me to do was to give out your phone number on the air, right?
unidentified
Yeah, just like I'm going to give out your home.
robert w morgan
You betcha.
art bell
All right.
So you're kind of in retreat right now.
When you first wrote to me, you said I'm kind of undercover with a pal.
So you've been, nobody's found you for a while, Robert.
robert w morgan
Yes, I'm living somewhere in Montana, and as you know, it's a pretty large state.
art bell
I know.
robert w morgan
And I'm here on purpose, and it's carrying on some things.
We've had some rather significant successes with those audio cassettes that I had mentioned to you at one time.
art bell
Right.
robert w morgan
And so far, 16 people so far, by following that, have had face-to-face meetings, encounters with Bigfoot.
Yes.
And so what I'm trying here is, since I found that I needed an area where I wasn't known and where people would not waste their time playing nonsense and starting from scratch.
And at the same time, of course, I love Montana.
I've been in and out of Montana for 20-some years, and it's absolutely fabulous.
art bell
All right.
So your quest continues.
And you've been researching Bigfoot for how long, Robert?
robert w morgan
Well, my first sighting was 1957, but I didn't start serious research until about, I think it was 1969.
art bell
And you have, did you write a book?
robert w morgan
No, I did an audio cassette.
The book is incomplete because I haven't finished it yet for obvious reasons.
art bell
All right.
Well, I may have another chapter for you here.
robert w morgan
Good.
bugs in texas
I'm all ready.
art bell
All right, so you'll be doing a lot of listening, although you're welcome to ask a question as the story unfolds.
robert w morgan
Thank you.
art bell
It was, I don't even know how long ago.
Bugs, are you there?
bugs in texas
Yes, I am, Art.
robert w morgan
Good morning.
art bell
Good morning, Bugs.
Can you guide?
Oh, yeah.
Bugs in a friend.
unidentified
From McDonald's.
art bell
Bugs in a front.
That's your dog, huh?
unidentified
Yep.
art bell
Bugs, you want to tell us what state you're in?
bugs in texas
Yeah, I'm in Texas, Art.
art bell
Texas.
All right.
How long ago, Bugs, did you tell me originally the story of what you did?
bugs in texas
Gosh, Art, it's been three or four years.
art bell
Three or four years, yeah, I thought it was quite a while.
Time flies.
bugs in texas
Yeah, I'm getting older every day.
art bell
Aren't we all?
All right, Bugs, I've got a real expert here, as you can hear, Robert W. Morgan.
bugs in texas
Good morning, Robert.
robert w morgan
Good morning, sir.
How are you?
bugs in texas
Doing fine.
You?
robert w morgan
I'm alive and meaner than cat dirt.
bugs in texas
Well, I keep telling everybody I'm still breathing, so I guess we're all right.
art bell
All right, fine.
Bugs, if you would begin at the beginning.
And by the way, Bugs, before we even start, why did you send me this map?
bugs in texas
Because, Art, my days are limited on this earth, and when I'm gone, my wife's going to call you and say, go for it.
Really?
And you can reveal to the world the map.
I have not been back to that place since that day.
art bell
All right, let's start then with that day.
Go ahead and tell it in as much detail as you want, folks.
bugs in texas
Art, me and two of my friends, which I'll refer to as Bird Dog and Jim, were cow bobcat hunters.
Back in the middle 70s, those varmints was worth a lot of money.
art bell
How much could you get for one?
bugs in texas
Well, no, Bobcat would bring anywhere from $300 to $700.
That would help.
art bell
Yeah, that's not bad.
bugs in texas
And coaches bring like $40, $50 apiece.
And then we'd go out, and to be honest with you, it was a little more than a hobby.
We were real serious about it.
art bell
Right.
bugs in texas
And we hunted many, many nights all over this country.
art bell
Were you making your living that way then?
bugs in texas
Yes, I was.
I was farming at that time.
I'd gotten out of the Marines and came back home and I was farming.
And in that part of the year, this was cotton country up here, so we didn't have much to do in January and February except kind of sit around.
And we hunted a lot in that period of time because you had to wait until the freeze come for those pelts to cure.
For some reason, and I don't know, maybe somebody explained it to me.
But an animal like a coon or a coat or whatever, if you kill them before it comes a hard freeze, when you skin them, their pelts are blue on the inside.
After they dry out, if you kill them after a hard freeze, they're white.
And I have no earthly idea why that is.
art bell
Does that sound right to you, Robert?
robert w morgan
Yeah, you know, I've seen that multicoloring, but I had no idea the reason I didn't make that correlation.
That's interesting.
bugs in texas
Okay.
So anyway, you know, it was like in December, January, and February that we hunted a tremendous amount.
And then in late February, to get into what they call a rutting season, and the animals would get manes and whatever, and they wasn't worth hunting.
So about two months, you had prime time hunting.
And me and these two guys, we hunted a lot.
We were all three from Vietnam veterans and very close, very close friends.
And one night we had gone, I don't know how to tell this to keep from giving the location away.
art bell
But whatever words you want, it doesn't matter.
bugs in texas
If somebody knows what I'm talking about, they can find out.
But anyway, we had hunted and we back in the flatland, so then we took this road back up north of where I'm at now, and it swung around.
It runs through ranch country.
It's probably 25, 30 miles.
Nothing but ranch land.
art bell
So in other words, this location is within, what, 100 miles of where you are now?
bugs in texas
Oh, it's closer than that.
art bell
Closer than that, all right.
bugs in texas
It's within 30 miles of where I'm at right now.
art bell
Okay.
bugs in texas
So anyway, we came around and we came across this, we were going to cross this creek.
It's more than a creek, but its name is Elm Creek.
And we were going to cross that creek.
We'd come around back north and coming down that county road through this ranch land and stuff.
And these ranchers loved us because we'd get rid of the coats that were taking their calves.
And this had to be four, probably three, four, five in the morning.
I don't remember the exact time.
Come around the bend and then in this bottom there just before you cross Elm Creek.
art bell
So you're hunting with lights then?
bugs in texas
Oh yeah, we're using spotlights off the roof of the pickup.
We're using 500 watt halogen bulbs.
It would light up anything from within a half a mile.
You can see where you're standing, see the ground good.
art bell
And anything with eyes lights up real well.
bugs in texas
Well, them eyes, the thing about it is, after you hunted as much as we did, you could tell by looking at a set of eyes what they were.
If they were a cow, they were wide apart and they were red.
If they were a cow, they were narrow and they were more blue-red.
I mean, it just, after a period of time, you just, you knew what, you could look in that scope and you knew what was there.
art bell
I'm not a hunter, so I just take your word for it.
bugs in texas
Well, it was just out of way.
I mean, but anyway, we come around this bend and come up over this rise, and there was a wheat field out in front of us, and just before we crossed this creek, and it was a valley down there, and it's probably, oh, I'd say it has wheatland right there, and it's probably a quarter mile or so wide from that road to the creek.
And it's probably a mile, about a mile long that runs alongside that creek, and it's flat, and that's fit.
And we come around this bend and up and over a little hill and dropped into this valley.
Well, just as we dropped into this valley, our lights hit, picked up a set of eyes.
And I hit the brakes.
I was driving, and Burger Dog, he come out on the side.
He had a 300 Weatherly Magnum.
And he come across the top.
I said, what do you got?
And he says, I don't know.
That ain't something I ever seen before.
Well, it just sit there.
art bell
When you said a set of eyes, did you mean two eyes or four?
bugs in texas
Two eyes.
robert w morgan
What color were they, Bugs, if you don't mind?
unidentified
They were furious red.
bugs in texas
The reddest eyes I've ever seen in my life.
Really?
Under those lights.
It was something we knew it wasn't a deer because of the eyes.
And it was something.
And so I pulled my rifle out.
I used the 243.
I put my scope on it.
And I could see whatever it was that's crouching.
And so Bird Dog, he got out and leaned over the hood of the pickup where he could get him a good shot.
And Jim, he come up over the top of the cab, and he, I don't even remember what kind of, I think he was using the 270.
I don't remember for sure.
But he lined up over the cab, and I was sitting there, and we just had both spotlights on this varmit there.
And I said, I don't know what it is, and they don't either.
And I said, well, it sure isn't nothing we know about it.
Let's take it.
And all three of us fired at the same time.
And all of a sudden, this thing got up, and it must have been seven, eight foot tall, at least.
I don't know.
Scared the heck out of us, started running.
Well, we all loaded and we fired again.
We knocked it down again.
And then it run, I guess it was probably 150 yards from the point we fired the first time until it hit the fence and went into that creek.
And we knocked it down.
It's probably 25, 30 yards from the fence.
art bell
It fell into a creek.
bugs in texas
No, not at this point.
And just as it was crossing the creek, we hit it again.
robert w morgan
Now, excuse me, Was it running on four legs or two?
bugs in texas
It was running on two legs, just like a human being.
I mean, it was.
robert w morgan
Right, so it was running on two legs.
It's something you've never seen before, but you three guys cut down on it.
bugs in texas
Well, we had done shot, and we did not know what it was.
It was hunched over.
It really wasn't using its front legs, I mean, its arms, as much as it was, it wasn't standing up straight.
We still thought it was what I thought it was at first, to be honest with you, was a bear.
And that's why we fired.
art bell
All right, so you had three of you fired initially, right?
bugs in texas
And we all fired three times.
robert w morgan
You guys are all non-vets, right?
unidentified
Right.
robert w morgan
And so you've had night combat, I'm sure.
bugs in texas
Right.
robert w morgan
Okay, so you have something getting up on two legs and running away, and you still cut down on it.
Okay, I have the picture.
Go ahead, please.
unidentified
Okay.
bugs in texas
Well, like I said, I originally thought it was a bear.
I did not even, I had no idea.
We had done fired on it at the point in time that it was sitting out there.
And once we fired, I don't know, I guess we just got a little bit gung-ho and kept shooting.
But anyway, the second time we shot it, it went over the fence.
Well, we went and looked.
And at this point in time, we were all getting scared because we thought, well, maybe this wasn't an animal.
So, like I say, it was probably 3, 4, 5 in the morning.
So we decided to drive around a while, about 5, 3, 6.
We went back over there, and we drove up there, and we went down and we seen blood.
So we seen some tracks.
Looked like a human foot.
And to be honest with you, I thought, well, now we done shot a human.
Now I'm getting scared.
So we go on up and start following these tracks.
And the creek runs all from this point probably 50, 75 yards east, and then it turns back south some.
These tracks are going down the creek, and they come out, and they went straight on east from where the creek turned back south.
About another 25, 30 yards, there was a plum thicket.
And we were walking there, and we heard something in that plum thicket.
I mean, it was a growl-type sound.
And we kind of looked at each other, and so we decided, well, who goes in and see what it was?
art bell
A growl.
bugs in texas
Yeah, and again, at this point, we thought, well, it's a bear.
We done found a bear up here.
So I got elected.
I had a 44 magnet pistol.
I climbed into the plum thickets, and I got in, oh, probably 20 feet at the most.
And art, this thing come up at me.
I mean, it couldn't have been over, I'd say, six or seven feet from me.
I didn't even see it until it was there.
it raised up and let out of my own is very similar to one you have on your you're talking about uh...
unidentified
as he grabs for it this one i presume or or Anything like that?
bugs in texas
Yeah, just the first one, not a repeat.
art bell
Yeah, that first scream is said to be an authentic Bigfoot sound, Robert?
robert w morgan
Yeah, that's what they say.
I have never heard them scream like that.
I've heard them howl.
I've heard them hoot, and I've heard them talk.
No.
Well, first of all, I've never challenged them, so they don't perceive me as a threat of any sort, so they wouldn't try to all right.
art bell
So anyway, Bugs, it sounded something like that.
bugs in texas
Something similar to just the first part.
It didn't go on and on.
It's just one surreal.
art bell
Right.
bugs in texas
And I'm basically on my all-fours in a crawl position, and I just brought my 44 up, and I started plopping shells.
And the first one I hit, the first one hit it, I'm just aiming right at the chest.
art bell
Describe what this thing, since you were seeing it now full-on, what did it look like?
Best you can.
bugs in texas
At that point.
art bell
Six feet tall.
bugs in texas
Probably, but it was not standing up at that point.
It was more in a hunched, squat-type position.
art bell
All right.
bugs in texas
I mean, it come up.
art bell
Would you describe this as human-looking, as ape-looking?
Did it have hair covering it?
What can you tell us about it?
bugs in texas
It had brownish-red hair.
It had hair on the face, completely covering the face.
Its whole body was covered with hair.
At that point, I just fired.
It dropped down, started back up, I fired again.
And it then kind of rocked and went backwards, and it come back up, and I fired again.
I hit it three times with 225 range, 44 magnum hollow point, probably six to eight feet.
And it was down.
Well, the other guys were standing guard up on top watching, and they couldn't see nothing.
They heard me firing, and they yelled.
If I was all right, and I said, yeah, I got it.
Well, they came crawling in there where I was at, and they seen it, so we decided we'd drag it out.
We got to looking, and all it had was three holes.
And this was a female.
You could tell it had breasts similar to a woman.
It had a sexual organ similar to a woman.
Facial features were different than a human being.
Like I say, it was covered completely in hair.
So we went back in and we found a male probably, I'd say, 8-10 foot behind where she was at.
He was dead.
art bell
He was dead.
bugs in texas
Yeah, so we drug him out.
We laid him out side by side.
The male is probably six to eight inches taller than the female.
Estimating the male to probably be eight foot plus, female seven plus.
So we looked at him.
We got scared because like I said, in the male, he had sexual organs like a human.
We looked at their teeth.
They were not human, human-type teeth.
I can't say that they were an ape.
I can't say that they were human.
They looked they had the features of a human overall, but the details were not.
art bell
Okay.
Bugs, I want you to hold on.
We'll be back to you shortly.
We're coming toward a break.
And Robert W. Morgan, hold on.
Okay, so what do you think Bugs had just shot?
Two creatures.
We'll get more of a description.
We'll get more of a story in a moment.
Robert W. Morgan, Bigfoot researcher, and Bugs, whose real name, by the way, I have, along with a map to the location of the bodies of whatever it is you just heard was shot.

art bell
Now it'd be us.
Morning, everybody.
I have two guests, Bugs, who shot a couple of creatures, and Robert W. Morgan, a Bigfoot researcher.
And we'll get back to them in a moment and the rest of Bugs' story.
And I'm getting a lot of interesting fast blasts about this, a lot of them very judgmental.
We'll talk about that in a moment.
All right, once again, I want to cover this.
I'm getting a lot of judgmental stuff saying stuff like, you killed it after you knew it was a bear or thought it was a bear?
Or did it ever occur to him that maybe he shouldn't shoot it or at least he had to run the other way?
Or, my God, out shooting animals?
You know, a lot of judgmental stuff.
But if I were to be judgmental, we wouldn't get the story.
What I really want is the truth here.
So I'm not going to sit in judgment of bugs.
There are a lot of people responding that way, bugs, as you might imagine.
But I'm not interested so much in that as I am the truth.
I want the truth, and if the truth is what you are doing, then that's what you're doing.
And so I just want the truth, and you are telling us the truth, right?
bugs in texas
That is correct, R. I wouldn't have sent you mouth otherwise.
art bell
No, I believe you.
I believed you the first time, and I believe you now.
There are a lot of people who don't like it, but this is a very important story in view of the probable physical evidence that still exists.
bugs in texas
You've got to remember something.
At that point in time, we were making our living basically hunting.
Arch, there was many a night that I went out and I made $1,000 in a night.
art bell
Really?
bugs in texas
I mean, there was one night, my biggest night ever.
We killed three bobcats, seven coats, and 18 coons, and we had $2,400 the next day.
art bell
I've got you.
So again, I'm not judging you here.
Somebody else would like to know, they've got a five-year-old listening, and they want to know really what these creatures look like.
Now, you said not exactly human, not exactly total animal, like something in between.
Is there any way you can describe the facial features of these creatures?
It should be imprinted on your memory.
bugs in texas
Yeah, Art.
No, because I've never seen nothing on this earth that looks like them.
Their heads, they have a nose similar to a human.
Their mouths appear to be more Ape.
Their eyes are sunken back in their head more than human.
I mean, I think if you take a human and cross it with an ape, you could probably come up with a reasonable facsimile of it.
robert w morgan
You know what I might suggest, Art, if you don't mind?
Sure.
Bugs, after we go off the air, if you would give Art your mailing address, which I have.
bugs in texas
Art has my mailing address.
He has my phone numbers.
as ever.
robert w morgan
Okay, what I'd like to do is...
art bell
I promised him anonymity, and we'll explain why here shortly.
robert w morgan
Oh, no, no, no, no.
What I mean is what I'd do is send a copy to you, Art, and have you forward it to Bugs.
The idea is this.
On the cover of that is one of the best artist renderings I've ever seen because I sat with the artist myself.
art bell
On the cover of what?
robert w morgan
On the cover of the cassette that I have.
art bell
Of a cassette, oh, of your cassette, all right?
robert w morgan
Right, and that way, what I'd like to do is get a reaction from Bugs and he can tell that to you.
That's number one.
Number two, can I ask you something, Bugs?
What kind of soil were these two buried in?
Was it sandy?
bugs in texas
Was it very?
This part of the country is sandy loam, and it wasn't silk sand, but it was sandy loam in that particular place where we buried them.
It was more of a gravel-type sand because it was, it did have some rock in it because that creek was probably, from the point we buried it, buried them, the creek kind of went south about probably 150, 200 yards, and then it turned back east.
And over the period of time when we had a lot of high rains in this part of the country, it would wash silt and such in there.
robert w morgan
Are you saying that the creek would overflow into this specific area?
bugs in texas
Yes.
robert w morgan
Oh, boy.
Because that'll cause a different type of decomposition.
Did you take a GPS reading?
bugs in texas
A what?
art bell
Probably not, Robert.
I would say not.
A GPS.
bugs in texas
Oh, no.
Don't have one of them animals.
robert w morgan
Okay, if we supplied one, would you take the readings and send those to Art?
art bell
Well, he's given me an extremely specific map.
Very, very specific.
bugs in texas
I mean, that map is detailed down to the foot.
art bell
You would know where to dig.
bugs in texas
To be honest with you, this happened 30-plus years ago, and I have not been out there since.
art bell
Bugs?
When you had these things lying on the ground, what did you guys talk about, and why did you decide to bury them?
bugs in texas
We thought they could be human, Art.
And we didn't want to go to jail.
art bell
But what you just described is it was.
Yeah, I understand.
In other words, there were a lot of people.
bugs in texas
When you're sitting there and you're looking at the sexual organs of two animals, it's got identical to human beings.
What do you think?
art bell
Robert, with what you know about Bigfoot, do they have sexual organs?
The reports you get, do they have sexual organs similar to humans?
robert w morgan
Oh, yes.
Oh, yes.
So far, everything that Bugs has mentioned is something that I've observed myself.
So yes.
He's right on the nose.
bugs in texas
Thank you, Robert.
I appreciate that fact.
art bell
Have you ever seen Bugs any of the Bigfoot photos, like the Patterson film, any of those houses?
You haven't?
bugs in texas
No.
art bell
Would somebody please send me a good Bigfoot photograph right away?
bugs in texas
I'm on the computer.
I can't look at it.
robert w morgan
Well, it's too bad our website isn't up because we have all of them on there.
art bell
Oh, you do?
robert w morgan
Yes, and unfortunately, it's under reconstruction right at the moment.
art bell
Okay, well, somebody will send us a photograph.
Depend on that.
In the next 15 minutes or so, we'll try and get it up for the next hour.
bugs in texas
I will give a little more detail as to the location of this tooth of people out there.
The biggest river in the state of Texas that, I guess you might say, is the Red River.
It's Elm Creek is a branch off of the Red River of the state of Texas.
unidentified
Okay.
art bell
That's the only sound.
Ashley, you heard that scream sound, but other than that, you heard a growling.
bugs in texas
Well, you would describe it.
I don't know whether it was a growling or a rustling or something, but something got our attention in those bushes.
art bell
Now, when they moved, you said they moved on two feet or seemed to walk on two feet, hunched over or straight up?
bugs in texas
It was hunched over.
To be honest with you, when it was running, it looked like a bear.
When it was running away from us, it looked like a bear, and I'm thanking dollar signs.
That's why I fired.
robert w morgan
And he was probably pretty badly injured by your first fuselide.
And what he was doing, I think, is, number one, escaping.
Number two, he was going to the protection, hopefully, of his mate.
And the mate may have picked him up and carried him to where you caught him.
bugs in texas
I don't know that that happened.
It's possible because there was grass where he came out of that creek and headed east there.
art bell
Maurice in Modesto, California asks, if you were hunting for money, why didn't you all decide to bring these creatures back for a hell of a profit?
They'd be worth fortune.
bugs in texas
Yeah, and maybe go to jail for the rest of your life, too.
robert w morgan
I think the fellow in Modesto is overlooking the fact that if these are humanoids, then under the American Constitution, they have civil rights, and Bugs is indeed Correct, he could be charged with manslaughter at least.
art bell
You know what?
By the time we did the original show, by the time we finished the original show, Bugs was actually going to invite me out there and we were going to dig these bodies up.
robert w morgan
Good.
art bell
This was years ago.
bugs in texas
Sit out show yard.
I ain't digging them up.
Let me tell you something.
I own a farm near this place.
art bell
Yes, sir.
bugs in texas
And Art, I won't go out there at night because about, oh, a year or so ago, I was out there late one evening with my dogs.
They love to go out and swim in a creek.
And I heard that sound, and Art, I know they still want out there, and to be honest with you, I think they're looking for me.
robert w morgan
Well, I'll tell you what, Bugs, we could do something.
This is just a proposition here.
If you would show art where it is, and if I could be somehow involved, I would take the heat for you.
I think I could get you off the hook on that.
art bell
I'm not sure you could take the heat.
In fact, Larry in Anchorage asks, is it even feasible to believe these bodies are still there?
robert w morgan
It's pretty rough in that kind of sandy loam, because if you have a lot of water running through there, they're going to decompose rather rapidly.
And this would also, the escaping gases would call in coyotes.
And those skeletons.
Oh, really?
bugs in texas
Hey, and let me tell you something.
Like our training, we were all Vietnam vets.
We know how to cover our tracks.
When we walked away from our, you couldn't tell there was a hole dug there.
robert w morgan
Is that right?
It's too bad you didn't have a couple of body bags, huh?
That would have helped.
Because the idea is, since the, Art, you know my feeling about hunting and using guns on Bigfoot.
However, if the deed is done, there's nothing we can do, but we wouldn't want them to die in vain.
And if they can prove, Bugs, listen to me, please, if we can prove that they exist by virtue of two skeletons, then in effect, you are protecting the rest of them, because I'm very confident they're going to come out as humanoid.
So an act on your part at this point in time would indeed help protect the rest of them.
art bell
Bugs, what about your two friends?
What has their attitude been since?
bugs in texas
You know something we haven't talked in probably, I guess, 10 or 15 years.
They both moved away from here.
I think they both had kind of the same feeling I did.
It was time to back up and go.
art bell
So you might have killed something, a human, or something.
bugs in texas
I mean, it wasn't that it bothered us that we killed humans because we had done that before.
You know, I mean, to take out a person, that was no big deal to us.
robert w morgan
But that was in war, and they were armed.
Right, that's a totally different thing.
bugs in texas
Totally different situation what we were in there today at that time.
robert w morgan
Yeah, you were doing your duty, pal.
bugs in texas
I know, I understand that.
But then, you know, when we got into this situation, I would not have shot the female once I saw her except I feared for my own life.
robert w morgan
Sure.
Oh, you had right to there.
Bugs.
She would have attacked you.
art bell
Bugs, what about smell?
Did you smell anything?
Did these creatures smell?
bugs in texas
Art, I can't remember.
I really can't remember that.
well it had been really distinct i'm sure you would have yeah it it would probably have And it's tough trying to draw it back up.
Because I knew what I had done.
I realized what we'd done.
And I realized that, you know, there might be consequences.
And the only reason I sent you this map and everything is because for three years, I have never had one phone call.
You knew who I was.
You knew where I was.
You knew my phone number and everything.
Yet, nobody ever got it.
So I trust you.
art bell
And you can trust me, although I'm not sure I'm happy I have the map.
If you dug the hole four to five feet deep, shot them at four in the morning, drove around, shot more, they would have been digging and burying in the daylight, correct?
bugs in texas
Right.
This was, the sun come up probably, I'd say around 6 o'clock, 6.30.
The sun wasn't up, but it was daylight enough for us to see.
And when we found them, we're probably talking about the sun was just ready to peek over the top of the hill.
We're talking probably 6.30, 6.45, maybe 7 o'clock.
And after we found them and drug them out and everything, we're talking probably 8 o'clock.
And it don't take very long to dig when you're scared.
And probably within an hour, we had dug a hole and put them back in it, and we had left.
art bell
Did you bury them in one hole or separate holes?
bugs in texas
One.
art bell
One hole.
bugs in texas
On top of each other.
art bell
Yeah, that would make sense.
After this was over, and they were buried, did the three of you talk?
unidentified
Yeah.
bugs in texas
And we swore ourselves to secrecy, Art.
art bell
You swore each other to secrecy.
unidentified
Yep.
bugs in texas
I'll never reveal it to anybody.
art bell
Except for years later, many years later, you went on the radio with me and you told this story.
And now you're telling it.
bugs in texas
And when you get to be old, I guess you start thinking about some things you did in your life that I need to make some corrections about.
art bell
That you weren't that happy about, huh?
bugs in texas
No.
That was one of the few things that I did in my life that I'm still scared about today, Art.
art bell
You feel guilty about it?
bugs in texas
Oh, yeah.
Tremendous amount of guilt.
Because I don't know, I might have taken innocent human being's life.
art bell
You know, maybe for a hunter, it's not the same way, Bugs.
But when you look into a human's eye, You can see an intelligence.
I mean, you know you're dealing with an intelligent creature.
And I don't know if you had enough eye contact before or it all happened too fast in all probability.
But I wonder if you had a chance to look into their eyes and whether you discerned anything from that, whether you were dealing with an intelligence or something that was about to kill you.
bugs in texas
No, Art, to be honest with you, it was just a quick, knee-jerk reaction, and it was fire because I just, I knew that I was in danger and I knew she was fixing to come after me.
And I knew it was a matter of a millisecond.
I either had to fire or I was gone and I didn't hesitate.
art bell
Yeah, obviously, with the other one dead, I would think that that creature would have killed you pretty quick.
If it could have.
robert w morgan
Yes, it would have.
bugs in texas
Oh, Art, it could have.
Believe you me, as big as this thing was.
Art, I'm six foot one.
art bell
There's a lot of bugs.
There's a lot of people that think that Bigfoot is some sort of paranormal creature.
But it sounds to me like the creatures were real dead.
You know, like animals and mammals and humans who get shot are dead.
Nothing paranormal about that.
bugs in texas
No.
art bell
They never disappeared on you.
bugs in texas
Nope.
art bell
Or nothing ever strange.
What about blood?
bugs in texas
Red blood, just like ours.
art bell
A lot of it?
bugs in texas
Quite a bit.
Quite a bit.
Especially hers.
I mean, his.
He had a big pool where he was hit.
And near the heart area, I would assume.
I imagine his, the pool of blood, I'm trying to remember now, but I would say it was probably where he was laying and he bled probably a foot and a half circle in diameter.
art bell
so everybody swore everybody else to secrecy uh...
unidentified
forever on this matter uh...
art bell
Robert, if it happened that long ago, and assuming that the remains have not been washed away, what might we expect to find, if anything?
robert w morgan
Well, you could find probably quite a bit of the skeleton.
You could, most importantly for us, I think it would be finding the teeth, because within the teeth, no matter even after many years, you can find viable DNA.
art bell
DNA?
unidentified
Yes.
art bell
All right.
Well, I've heard that they found hair recently, and they do a DNA test on it, and it comes back as hominoid of some sort, unidentifiable.
So what do we get from that?
In other words, if you have a hair sample and they say, well, yes, it was some sort of mammal or hominoid in some way, but it's not identifiable, and that's the end of the story.
unidentified
Right.
robert w morgan
That happened to us.
We had that in 1974, and we had that also in 1972.
Hair tells you quite a bit about the DNA, but it still will not convince science.
Now, if we can get a complete skeleton, especially if we have two, male and female, if there's sufficient bones there, they can be reconstructed and they can provide the proof that the Bigfoot A does exist, B, well, whether or not they are humanoid or whether they're pongidi or otherwise if they're human or ape.
unidentified
Robert, do you believe bugs?
robert w morgan
Everything that I have heard bugs say has what I would call the ring of truth.
unidentified
We'll be right back.
I can feel it coming from the Kingdom of Nigh.

art bell
I think Bugs is exactly who he sounds like he is.
I thought that the first time I interviewed him, the second time, and now, same deal, folks.
I think he is exactly who he appears to be.
And I think the story is absolutely true.
My guests include Robert W. Morgan, a Bigfoot researcher and bugs who killed two creatures in the wilds of Texas.
And it may well be they are Bigfoot or Bigfoots.
I still haven't quite figured that out.
At any rate, my guests will be back in a moment.
And within about 10 minutes, we're going to have some photos up on the website, some real quick ones, for Bugs to take a look at.
I'm Art Bell.
We're only going to have Bugs here for a little while longer.
So, on top of him seeing the photographs, I want to ask him a few more questions with Robert before we lose him.
I know you had a really hard day today, didn't you, Bugs?
bugs in texas
Yeah.
I've got a couple questions I need to ask Robert.
art bell
All right.
bugs in texas
Robert, can these creatures know who I am and what I did?
unidentified
Yes.
bugs in texas
Yes, the reason why I say that is because, like I said, it's been six months.
It was last summer.
I was at my farm late one evening, and it just got dark.
And I have a creek that runs into this creek that I'm talking about.
And I heard, it was not a coat type howl.
And it just made the hair on my back of my neck stand up.
And I just felt in my heart that this had to be one of these creatures.
art bell
Was it the same kind of howl?
Or roughly the same?
bugs in texas
As what?
art bell
As what you heard originally?
bugs in texas
No, no.
This was not similar to what you have on tape.
art bell
No, no, no, no.
To what you heard originally.
bugs in texas
Well, I don't know.
I just can't.
I can't place.
robert w morgan
How many statute miles are you from the site?
bugs in texas
Well, that creek's approximately six miles.
robert w morgan
About six miles away?
bugs in texas
Yeah.
robert w morgan
And okay, now that's going to sound like a strange question.
Does the water flow upstream or downstream from where you are?
bugs in texas
Downstream.
robert w morgan
Downstream?
bugs in texas
It flows down into this point, place.
robert w morgan
Had you hunted that area before?
bugs in texas
Oh, yeah.
robert w morgan
Okay, so the identification, they could have identified you.
And believe me, six miles is a Sunday stroll for these people.
So more than likely, they have identified you.
Yes, you're probably right.
Am I in any danger?
I would be very careful.
bugs in texas
Am I in any danger?
robert w morgan
It's been how many years?
bugs in texas
This is 1976.
robert w morgan
Right.
76?
It's possible, but I would say that, you know, I'm going to sound very, very weird here for a second.
If you would go out on the edge of that and hold your hands open and open to your side where they can see you have no weapon whatsoever, and this is going to sound strange to you, talk to them.
Just talk.
Whenever you have a feeling they're out there, go out and just let yourself go.
Tell them what you think and what you made a mistake.
You know, it doesn't hurt anyone.
It could help you, and God only knows they might understand.
I don't know.
I certainly would try it.
bugs in texas
I don't even own a weapon anymore.
After this happened, I quit hunting.
Like I say, I couldn't even pull a trigger now, even probably to defend myself.
art bell
Bugs, I have a question for you.
Chris in Medford, Oregon asks, I was wondering how heavy these creatures were, and he thinks you can judge this because you all had to lift them to bury them, right?
bugs in texas
Right.
I'm going to say they probably weighed 350 pounds in that area.
Oh, my.
It was all we could do to move them.
art bell
That's a lot of body mass.
bugs in texas
Oh, tell me about it.
Dead body is the heaviest thing on earth.
art bell
Somebody else says, and maybe this isn't true, or maybe it certainly is, the only thing missing is the grief that he hides, that he has nightmares of killing the female.
bugs in texas
Yeah, I did for a long time, Mark.
Did for a long time.
I have woke up at night again in that position firing my weapon.
I mean, I went through some hairy things in Vietnam.
I was with the first Marine recon in Vietnam.
The Lord hit a lot of larks.
21 days, 12 days.
I know what it's all about.
That don't bother me.
This thing with her bothers me worst of all of them because that's the closest I've ever come to death.
art bell
Yeah, I hear you.
You described the fact that the imprint of the feet seemed like a human footprint.
Was it bigger than a usual human footprint?
But judging by the weight, I would think it would be.
bugs in texas
Oh, yes.
I would say.
Isn't it Michael Jordan?
It has to have size 18 shoes or what basketball player?
I would say it's probably in that size.
There is one thing that I've never revealed to anybody about the foot of this animal.
art bell
What?
bugs in texas
And that's why I'm very reluctant.
A lot of these people talk about Bigfoot and stuff, but there is something about their feet that is different than anybody else.
Robert should know what I'm talking about.
robert w morgan
Yeah, I think I do.
art bell
Well, let's not have Robert say you say.
What?
bugs in texas
Six toes.
unidentified
Oh.
art bell
What?
bugs in texas
Six toes.
art bell
Six toes on both of the creatures.
bugs in texas
On both of the creatures.
robert w morgan
That's an anomaly, I think.
I think that's an anomaly.
But I'm going to take a wild guess here.
You must be within 100 miles of the Arkansas border.
bugs in texas
No?
robert w morgan
And the reason I say, well, in that case, there was a family in Arkansas, Bigfoot, that did have a six-toed genetic code.
bugs in texas
Okay.
robert w morgan
And they may have spread into eastern Texas.
That is possible, but that is not the norm.
bugs in texas
I am in the Texas Panhandle.
And, like I say, this creek...
art bell
Bucks don't say anymore.
robert w morgan
Yeah, don't say anymore.
art bell
Texas panhandle is close enough.
bugs in texas
And everything, you know, Red River runs from Arkansas up to Texas.
It's the border of Texas, Oklahoma.
So I'm assuming that these animals come from that direction.
Where they were going, I have no idea.
art bell
Fugs, you said that in the light, the eyes were red.
What about spotlights, yes.
Yeah, what about when they were dead?
bugs in texas
Did you see that?
unidentified
Black.
bugs in texas
Black.
I couldn't see any pupils or anything like that, just black eyes.
Little larger than human eyes.
art bell
Okay.
robert w morgan
You know, Bugs, I'm very sorry.
I'm not a hunter myself.
I used to hunt years and years ago, but I came through the same transition that you did.
I don't want to see anything die anymore.
I have no time for it.
But at the same time, I must say, honestly, I'm so pleased that you contacted Art Bell.
art bell
Bugs, you said you had a computer there.
bugs in texas
Yes.
art bell
Go right now to your...
Oh, you do?
Under What's New, you'll see the first item now, instead of Cloud Vortex is Bigfoot images.
click on that.
bugs in texas
No, I don't like that.
art bell
Refresh.
Refresh.
And then go to What's New, and you'll see Bigfoot Images.
You see them?
bugs in texas
They're coming up.
Okay.
unidentified
There's four of them there right now.
art bell
My listener is doing me a favor in getting these images up quickly.
Some are drawings.
bugs in texas
I think everybody else hit the website at the same time as me.
art bell
Two of them are, looks like at least one is a photograph.
Two may be photographs, and two are drawings.
bugs in texas
This first one coming up, the hair is the wrong color.
art bell
Okay.
But what about the general.
Was it more, was it closer to a human than that?
bugs in texas
Oh, yeah, this looks like an ape here.
No, this first picture, of course, like I say, it's loading up slow.
All I see now is the eyes.
But the eyes were sunken in, but the above the eyes, I guess you'd call the eyebrow area, it was flatter than that.
art bell
Okay.
bugs in texas
The nose was totally different.
The nose was more human.
The mouth is very, very similar.
art bell
Okay, what about you, Robert?
Do you have internet access where you are?
robert w morgan
No, I'm on the line that I usually use.
But what I'm going to do is I'm going to send a copy of the drawing down to you, Art, and you can forward it to button.
art bell
I can do that.
Just give it a few minutes, Bugs, and the rest of these will go.
bugs in texas
Okay, the third picture, Laura, looks just about like it.
art bell
Oh, really?
The third one down?
bugs in texas
Yeah.
art bell
All right.
bugs in texas
Very, very close.
art bell
This appears to be an actual photograph.
To be honest with you, it's a photograph, and it may be a photograph taken from the Patterson film.
bugs in texas
I'm not sure.
The third one doesn't look like that.
Second one, I mean, it's almost a dead ringer.
art bell
Oh, you're saying that?
bugs in texas
I mean, the third one.
I mean, the fourth picture does not look like it, but the third picture is almost a dead ringer.
art bell
Number three is in an oval.
bugs in texas
Yeah.
art bell
And you said that's almost a dead ringer for you?
bugs in texas
Yeah, almost identical.
art bell
Boy, I wish you had internet access, Robert.
robert w morgan
Yeah, unfortunately, I'm talking on the line.
art bell
I'll tell you what, Robert.
why don't i do this uh...
one on five I can certainly try.
Okay, remember now, you'll be able to get on, no problem.
www.arpel.com.
It'll be under what's new, which is the first item on the left when you load the website.
It'll say, let me see here.
It will say Bigfoot images.
And because we've got a hit here, because he says it's like number three, if you would go down and take a look at number three, I will call you back in about eight minutes.
robert w morgan
Okay, I'll get on it right now.
art bell
All right.
Let me see if I can do this properly.
Okay, let's see.
And I think that I've done it.
Let me see if I can bring back Bugs.
Bugs, are you there?
bugs in texas
Yeah, I'm here.
art bell
Okay, good.
All right, Bugs.
So number three is pretty close, huh?
bugs in texas
Very, very close, Ark.
The only thing about number three that I can see, the difference between it and what my recollection is, is the eyebrow area was a little less protruding.
art bell
Otherwise, the head?
bugs in texas
The head, the mouth is identical, the nose is identical.
Wow.
And what picture, is this a hammer picture?
art bell
I believe, and I'm not certain, but I believe, and now Robert will be able to tell us, he's the expert on this, but I think this might be from the Patterson film.
I'm not sure.
bugs in texas
Okay.
art bell
All right.
This was sent in just by a listener.
But it doesn't matter.
Obviously, I would say it's a real photograph that we're looking at.
And judging from this, now was there any, other than the sex organs, was there any discernible difference between the male and the female?
bugs in texas
That was it, Art.
The male was a little taller, like I say, probably six, eight inches taller, and probably weighed, I'd say maybe 30 pounds more, maybe 40-something in that neighborhood.
They were both extremely muscular.
They didn't appear to have any, what I would call human-type fat on them.
And their abdom area, the mid-age bull, whatever you want to call it, they appear to be just very, very mustard-type people.
I want to say people, but animals.
I still kind of feel like their people are.
Really?
unidentified
Yeah.
art bell
You in sending me the map, Bugs, you said that you're not going to be around forever.
Well, I'm not going to be around forever either.
And I don't know what to do with this.
I don't know what's right to do with it.
I don't know if it would result in both of us getting in trouble even today.
I'm not sure.
bugs in texas
Maybe uh well if you feel that you don't need to have it, then burn it.
I have a copy.
My wife has a copy.
She has the original and everything we faxed to you.
art bell
And what did you tell her about this?
When you gave her her copy of the map, what did you tell her?
bugs in texas
She was in shock and awe when I first revealed this because she knew nothing about it.
We'd been married for years.
She knew nothing about it until the night I talked to you on the radio.
unidentified
Oh.
art bell
Then y'all must have had a pretty big talk about it afterwards, huh?
unidentified
Oh, yeah.
bugs in texas
She wanted to go see the place, and I said, we ain't going over there.
There is no way I will go back to where that area is.
art bell
Why?
bugs in texas
I don't know, Art.
Something scares me about it.
art bell
Did you end up with any of the creatures' blood on your clothing, shoes, whatever?
bugs in texas
Not that I'm aware of, Art.
art bell
Because blood, too, has DNA in it.
bugs in texas
I know.
If it's possible, then moving them and everything, we did, but it wasn't something we noticed.
And my wife wouldn't have said anything because, you know, we handle cows and popcats and stuff like that.
We got blood on them out.
art bell
I hear you.
Mike in San Angelo, Texas, down there in Texas, where he asks.
The hands, the feet.
Would you describe them as leathery?
Were the nails thick?
Were the ears big?
Was there anything weird about the teeth?
I mean, did you think you were looking at a meat eater or a vegetarian?
Any guesses?
bugs in texas
I would say, just offhand, probably a vegetarian.
But then again, Ark, I don't know.
You know, we're talking about a total time of me looking at these animals and burying them.
A total time, an hour, an hour and a half, two hours.
art bell
As you guys tried to figure out what to do, huh?
bugs in texas
Oh, yeah.
Well, we knew what to do.
We went and got the shovels and started digging.
art bell
Yeah.
What about the hands and feet?
He's asking, were they leathery feeling?
Can you remember any texture?
Can you remember anything about it?
bugs in texas
All right, I can't remember other than their hands.
I don't know how to describe them.
It would be like somebody that had a pair of cow-hide gloves on with hair around them and then in their palm area, just skin type showing.
Kind of, I guess you would say a leathery type hands.
And their feet, bottom of their feet were the same way.
The only thing, like I say, the hands and the bottom of their feet were probably the only thing it wasn't covered with hair.
And their face didn't, it wasn't completely covered with hair, but then again.
art bell
Pretty close to how much hair there was there in number three?
bugs in texas
Yeah, very similar.
Very similar.
art bell
Since that's happened, since you've been on my show, the original time you appeared on my program, have you told anybody else about this?
bugs in texas
Yeah, there's one other person in this world who knows about it because he had an encounter here a while back with one.
He decided he was going to follow his uncle and be a great white hunter.
So one night he come across one about, oh, I guess it's been a month and a half, two months ago, about, oh, I'd say 40 miles from where this happened.
And he'd come home telling me about it about three days later.
He was scared.
And then I told him.
And he said, that's exactly what I thought.
And I said, well, why didn't you shoot it?
He said, man, I didn't know what it was.
I said, I got the hell out of there.
Pardon my friends.
art bell
Yeah, I imagine when you think back on your encounter, you probably wish you'd done that too.
But by the time you'd shot the thing, initially, so many shots, I guess you pursue it.
You don't leave an animal out to die.
bugs in texas
No, you're right.
If it's wounded, you want to put it out of its misery.
And again, we thought it was a bear.
Just to be perfectly honest with you, I mean.
art bell
Yeah, even up until the moment that you shot the final creature dead, you still really thought it was a bear, didn't you?
bugs in texas
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, and I thought it was a wounded bear in the bushes, and that's what we'd laughing about.
Who's going into the thickets to get the bear?
art bell
How'd you get elected?
bugs in texas
I was the only one.
I had the most high-powered pistol.
Bird dog, he had a 357, and Jim, he had a 22.
And I had a 44 Magnum Ruger.
So they said, well, you got the big gun.
You go in.
I said, well, I want it to go.
art bell
By the way, I can hear something creaking, and I imagine that's your easy chair you're rocking back in, if I had to guess.
bugs in texas
Right, right, it is.
art bell
All right, bugs.
Hold on.
We won't hold you too much longer.
Just a couple more questions.
We'll get Robert W. back on with us in a moment.
unidentified
A lot of people say that's what bugs could do.
Make millions now.
art bell
I just sensed the truth about this story, and I don't know why.
I always have, since I first heard it, I've sensed it was the truth, and I think that's now.
unidentified
anyway for those of you check it out it's number three third photograph yeah all yeah
You think that people would have had enough of silly love songs.
So look around me and I see the soul.
Some people wanna feel a worth with silly love songs.
And what's wrong with that?
I'd like to know I go from the Coast to Coast AM archives.

This is Coast to Coast AM with Art Bell.
art bell
It certainly is.
My guests are Robert W. Morgan, who is now back after having seen the photograph himself.
And Bugs, who will remain identified as far as location beyond that which he's already given.
And certainly not his real name.
It is his request.
I will keep it secret forever, if necessary.
And I guess that's what we're going to talk about in a moment.
unidentified
*Bad music*
art bell
All right.
Robert W. Morgan back and Bugs, and we're not going to have Bugs for much longer.
So just a couple more questions, Bugs, and any Robert might have.
You could, you've given me a very detailed map, but Todd and Lakeside wants to know, could you actually walk to the spot where you buried them, no problem?
bugs in texas
Yep.
I believe I could.
art bell
But you wouldn't?
bugs in texas
No, I don't want to go back out there, Art.
art bell
Not even with myself and or Robert Morgan.
bugs in texas
I'll get you closed, but I ain't going back out there.
art bell
All right.
Two questions from Ian in Charleston, South Carolina.
How many times did you have to shoot the creature?
A question I think you already answered.
bugs in texas
I think we fired three times at the first one, and I know I fired three times at the female.
art bell
Did it emit any kind of sound while the other one was shot?
Was there any reaction?
Or was it too hard to see?
bugs in texas
We did not see the female until I went into the second.
art bell
Okay.
I'm told that you should one more time refresh your computer screen because there are now a total of six images up there.
Too bad for you, Robert.
Anyway, listen, Robert, you got to see the third one down, which he says is pretty doggone close to what he saw.
robert w morgan
Yeah, that's a good one.
There's nothing wrong with that.
art bell
You think that one's fairly representative of what a big foot would look like?
robert w morgan
Yes, yes.
It's very, very close.
Very close.
art bell
All right, Robert.
Do you have anything?
bugs in texas
If you would take the hair on number four and darken it a bit, that would be the color of the hair.
It's a little too red.
It's more brown than it is than that red.
robert w morgan
I'll give you a little hint on that.
The younger ones have the reddish hair.
The older they get, the darker they get.
And then when they get into old age, of course, they become grizzled just like us.
bugs in texas
Okay.
Neither of these two.
The fifth picture, it's hard to tell.
I can't see facial features or anything.
And the sixth picture doesn't even look like nothing like what I saw.
art bell
So it's number three all the way?
bugs in texas
Yeah, it's got number three.
Number three is almost identical.
art bell
All right, good.
robert w morgan
Good.
Bugs, I'm going to send you one by way of art that I think you're going to say, oh my God, that's him.
bugs in texas
Okay.
robert w morgan
Okay.
art bell
All right, Robert, last chance.
unidentified
Any other questions for Bugs?
robert w morgan
No other questions except that I will provide through you art, and if anything I can do to assist either of you or both of you, I'd be more than happy to.
I'm sorry that it happened.
art bell
He's obviously not going back there.
robert w morgan
Well, believe me, Bugs, it's hard to say, but if I went along, I think you'd be fairly safe.
art bell
I wonder if we don't identify bugs, Robert, and we were to go there, or you were to go there, what our liability would be?
robert w morgan
None.
None.
There would be no problem whatsoever.
bugs in texas
But the problem is everybody in this part of the world knows who I am.
robert w morgan
Well, we needn't divulge where we got them.
Simple as that.
art bell
Have you, I guess you've thought over the years you'd face maybe jail time for this, huh?
bugs in texas
Right, right.
art bell
I doubt you certainly would never.
You would never be convicted of first-degree anything because there wasn't.
bugs in texas
Yeah, but I'm 56 years old, Art, now.
art bell
We're the same, almost the same age.
I'll be 56 June 17th, so.
robert w morgan
Yes, but you know, what you did, though, was not, you did not know it was a Bigfoot.
You did not fire on it as a Bigfoot.
I don't see, if you had known what it was and you fired, that's one thing.
The first one that you fired on was at such a distance, and it was an irrational, or not an irrational, irresponsible act, but it's done.
What's done is done.
Secondly, you did the other one in self-defense, and I doubt that anyone is going to blame you for that.
I'm sorry that it happened simultaneously, but I think the furtherance for science and also the furtherance for the protection of the children of these two adults that are dead, they could benefit by the protection that this discovery could give them.
Because if they are humanoid, we can do a hell of a lot more than what we're doing right now.
They are in imminent danger, despite the laws that I've been able to initiate.
It does Happen.
And, you know, education and intelligence, intelligent application of law is what we need.
bugs in texas
Well, Robert, I have one question I would like to ask you.
You mentioned Arkansas that there were creatures down in there.
Is it possible, because this happened, I would say, somewhere around the middle of February.
Is it possible that these animals or whatever they are migrate from that area up to Colorado?
robert w morgan
Oh, bugs, they're all over.
They're here in Montana.
They're in Florida.
They're in Ohio.
They're in Pennsylvania.
They're in New York State, upstate New York.
They're in Washington, Oregon.
The only place I've never had a real report is in Parump.
bugs in texas
Same what?
Same what?
robert w morgan
But in any case, they're all over the place, and they do move quite a bit.
They do have, unfortunately, predictable to some degree movement patterns.
But this is by virtue of weather and food availability.
But they move quite a bit.
And what you have there are probably offshoots from the Ouachita Mountains and in that area.
And also, I must say, in New Mexico, in the highlands of New Mexico, you also have them there.
And in the Mogillon Rim of Arizona, they're there also.
bugs in texas
Well, see, that's what I was wondering.
Because if you take a map and you followed the Red River, you know, it would lead from Arkansas nearly to New Mexico.
And I was just wondering if this was a possibility that this was a route that these animals travel and they go south in the winter and go north in the summer.
robert w morgan
Well, they have their own routes, but they don't necessarily have to go by virtue of the weather.
They're perfectly adapted.
Unlike you and I, they don't have to worry about the weather.
When they're cold, in fact, the colder it gets, I think, in a lot of ways, the better off they are.
The ones that I've encountered in Florida are much smaller and thinner and scrawnier.
Not anywhere near as healthy as the ones that I've seen up in the northern states.
art bell
That's a good question.
Did these animals appear to you, other than being dead, to be healthy specimens?
bugs in texas
Oh, yes, very healthy.
They were very muscular.
I would say they were younger animals than older ones because they just appeared that they were younger.
I hate to make this a, I don't know the word I'm looking for, but the equation to this to what I would say in a human factor, and this is the one thing that scared us, and I don't want anybody to take this wrong, but you have seen mentally retarded people, their facial features and everything.
That's what we thought we had done shot with some mentally retarded people that was living in the wild.
robert w morgan
Very brutal facial features that are almost Neanderthalic and a little bit more so, I think.
But, gee, I wish I could reach out and help you somehow.
unidentified
I really do.
art bell
Let me be very straight on a few things here.
Number one, Bugs, you don't want your identity revealed, right?
bugs in texas
No.
art bell
Okay.
Number two, you don't want to go back to the spot yourself.
bugs in texas
Nope.
I'll take you within.
I can take you up on a hill and show you where it's at.
Within probably, I would say, maximum of a quarter to half a mile away.
But I just, I have, there is something inside of me that just will not let me go back to that spot.
art bell
Yeah, I don't think I blame you.
And that's where you gave up hunting, too.
All right.
Listen, Bugs, thank you, my friend, for coming back on here tonight.
bugs in texas
Well, you're welcome, Hart, and I appreciate it.
art bell
So I will honor your wishes.
bugs in texas
I would like to explain one reason why I'm doing this.
art bell
Yes, sure.
bugs in texas
It is because of you and what you have done for all the people in this United States.
You are the one person that brings forth the stuff that everybody else laughs at.
And someday, when I'm gone, you'll get to laugh at them because you'll have the proof.
art bell
Thank you, Bugs.
bugs in texas
All right.
Good night, All right.
Good night, Robert.
robert w morgan
Good night, Bugs.
Good luck to you.
bugs in texas
Thank you.
Bye-bye.
Okay.
art bell
There we go, Robert.
yeah so then we're left with He'll get us close.
He doesn't want to be identified.
And damn it, he left me a map.
robert w morgan
Yeah, well, I can't blame him with that, but his reactions and everything else shows a lot of humanity was brought out in this guy, and he realizes what he's done, and he's really, really sorry for it.
art bell
I believe he's exactly who he sounds like he is.
Simple as that.
Simple as that.
I've thought it all these years, and I think it even more so now.
robert w morgan
But, Gotti, you know, if we could get out there and get these bones before they're totally dissolved and the rodentia gets to them and everything like that.
art bell
Well, if you had a map peep, maybe.
robert w morgan
Yeah, it's possible.
And if we could just do it and get it on film and everything like that, I think that what has happened, you know, it's a tragedy.
It's a tragedy on all sides, all the way around.
But it sounds like we have an honest guy.
He knew what the hell he was doing.
And I hate to see him suffering like this because he is.
He's obviously carrying a lot of guilt.
And I wish we could reach out and help him in some way.
art bell
well you start changing uh...
you know as you get older and you start uh...
robert w morgan
66.
art bell
Oh, you're 62, and you know better than we do.
robert w morgan
Hell, I'm meaner than Kent this dog.
I bicycle, I run, I fight, you name it, I do it all.
Age, in a lot of ways, I think, is a mindset.
I've been blessed, or whatever you want to call it, with absolute perfect health, and I'm as strong as I am now as I was when I was 30 or 30.
art bell
Everybody does begin reflecting, though, as they get older.
robert w morgan
Oh, absolutely.
Well, this is where wisdom comes, you know.
And it's too bad it comes so late.
And this man, obviously, you know, going through Vietnam, that was a very, very tough place to be.
art bell
Yes, it was.
robert w morgan
And the one thing that I wish I could have asked him, and it just is the color of his eyes, he said, was red when he got him in the light.
art bell
With the light on him, you know?
robert w morgan
Yeah, my question was, was going to be, what were the lights of Charlie, Viet Cong, at night?
Because that should have given him a clue right there.
But, you know, these guys were hunting.
They had reverted way back to the early days of America, you know, and that's how a lot of guys made a living.
And that's what they did.
art bell
Yeah, early on, when he was telling the story early on, I have a computer board I watch here with Fast Blast, and they were coming in.
They were very judgmental.
unidentified
Oh, yeah, sure.
art bell
As you can imagine.
But, I mean, look, you could sit here and pour judgmentally over what he did, and it's not going to change anything.
I wanted to get the story as it was laid out, and that's how he gave it to us, right, wrong, or whatever.
robert w morgan
He showed so much courage, much more than the average person, to come forward and to tell you about this and then provide you with the wherewithal to reveal this.
And, you know, that way, these deaths won't be for nothing.
art bell
Well, he asked you, I thought, a question that caused you to pause a moment.
He asked if he was in danger now.
robert w morgan
Yes.
art bell
Or he could be from the family that's left.
If there was more of a family, he seems to think that there's more of them out there.
With what you know about Bigfoot, would it have that kind of memory or would it act instinctually or something in between?
And that says a lot about what Bigfoot is and isn't.
robert w morgan
No, I think they're extremely intelligent.
I've had them give me gifts when they happen to have seen me stop.
One time I stopped, this is an example.
One time I stopped in the middle of the woods with a young boy that was with us, and he was just fiddling around, and he had found a dead turkey.
So, you know, a wild turkey.
So I knelt beside the kid, and I showed him the turkey feathers.
When we got back to camp, and after that, we were always given gifts of turkey feathers that would be inserted into the ground a good inch and a half.
This is reaching out, you know.
This is saying, oh, wow, you guys are interested in that.
Here, let me show you.
Here, let me give you a gift.
Now, this doesn't come from some animal.
art bell
No.
robert w morgan
No, no.
And I think that what has happened is probably they tracked him, or maybe there were others in the area, although I kind of doubt it because they would have attacked him.
But they identified him, and they've been watching him, and I think they're pretty much sympathetic in a lot of ways.
God only knows.
I don't know.
I do know that if we were able to get down there, I think that we could go to that site.
If that, if, unless they went back, here's a question.
It just came to my mind.
Unless the family of the Bigfoot went back and removed those bodies, it is possible.
They do bury their own, and they have a very specific way of burying them.
art bell
When that one rose up, Robert, when that one rose up, if he had not killed it that instant, it would have killed him?
robert w morgan
Probably.
Yes, yes, yes.
Because obviously the male was either dead or dying and had gone to the female or the female had picked him up and carried him and took him into deep bushes.
This is absolute textbook.
art bell
Typical of what they do?
robert w morgan
Sure, it's a textbook.
And when they get hunted, that's exactly what they do.
So here this guy comes along, and he comes in after them.
Her mate is dead.
And the first thing she did was growl or shout at him, trying to get him to back off.
And then she rose up, and of course, out of, this is a combat-trained individual.
He's not going to back off.
He's going to do what he has to do.
And everything he said had a lot of ring of truth to it.
So if I were him, I wouldn't.
It's sorry that it happened.
But my God, let's close the chapter by not letting these people die for nothing.
That would be the treasure, because it's going to happen again.
art bell
Robert, what do we know about these creatures?
What are these creatures?
Over the years, I've done so many programs, and I range from thinking they're part of the paranormal, kind of disputed by what we just heard.
I mean, if they were paranormal, they'd probably just blink out or some who knows what.
And if they're not paranormal and they're real and what we seem to see when we look at photographs of them, then what are they?
robert w morgan
I think they are an ancestor of humanity, of the Homo sapiens today.
We have this problem.
We have this blind spot, Art.
And that is, it was caused by our religions that told us that 6,000 years ago the earth was created and we were put on it.
And ever since that point, and it was created for us, we have the arrogance to believe that this entire world and all the animals and bugs and all this stuff is created for us.
art bell
Yeah, that all of this was created, that there is no such thing as evolution.
robert w morgan
that we were just popped down here out of the body of the apple in the This may have been the car that was selected by our maker to insert the soul.
We're getting a little esoteric there, but that is one way of looking at it, perhaps.
art bell
The original car?
unidentified
Yeah, exactly.
robert w morgan
These are the people that were perfectly adapted.
He doesn't have to worry about him being cold or hot.
They take care of themselves.
They don't have to plow.
They don't have to plant.
They don't have to take vaccinations.
They're doing fine.
We, on the other side, everybody talks about us evolving.
Hell, we've devolved.
Take our clothes off of us and throw us outside and find out how long we last.
You know, for us, we have to have another animal's skin on our feet, for God's sake, the leather on our shoes.
art bell
That's absolutely true.
robert w morgan
You know, we have devolved when it came to the earth.
Here these people are, the Bigfoot people.
They are perfectly adapted.
They have the linguistic, you know, in that audio cassette that you have from Moreland, that we have actual imitation of verbiage.
Otherwise, they have the hyod bone.
art bell
Do you have that, Robert?
Do you have that handy?
robert w morgan
I don't.
No, I don't.
I don't have it right here.
But Ron Moorhead's I can send you.
I can have one thing.
art bell
No, I was just hoping you could play something from it.
robert w morgan
No, I don't.
Well, you know, what was it two years ago?
We played it for a while.
art bell
I remember that.
That's right.
But this audience, most of them would not have heard it.
All right, listen, Robert.
Hold on.
When we come back, we'll try and find out all we can about Bigfoot.
We'll pick Robert's brain, then we'll open the lines for a while and let you ask questions.
Pretty serious night.
And somebody asked, why am I smiling with that map?
Well, because I was on camera.
That's why.
unidentified
We'll be back.
Mississippi, in the middle of a dry spell.
Jimmy Rogers, on the liquor store up high.
I'm dancing, baby, on the shoulders.
Sun is suddenly dance on the sky.
I know you just need me now here.
I know that you have'cause there's magic in my life I can see for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles Oh yeah!
If you think that I don't know about the little tricks you play I'll never see you on the lip but leave but leave my way Well here's a broken view you're gonna choke on the tree You're gonna lose that smile because of the wild I could see for miles and miles I could see for miles and

Here's my dilemma.
I had no idea that Bugs was going to send me a map, number one.
Number two, I have his real name, and I've had it for years, and I've kept the secret for years, and I will continue to do so.
So here's my dilemma.
I have no illusions about what to this point has probably protected me from getting some sort of subpoena.
And I'm sure it's the fact that people disbelieve.
You know, they disbelieve, which maybe works for me in this case.
Maybe you can understand my thinking about this.
The authorities go, ah, we've got a lot more important things to do.
Good.
However, if I were to go down there and I were to dig up the area and I were to find, actually it's identified precisely on the map, and I were to find bones and I were to find the remnants of something that had been hominoid, I have no illusions about what would happen.
The police would move in.
There would be homicide detectives.
I would be under incredible pressure to turn over the information on the ID, which I can't do.
I promised I wouldn't, and I won't.
I can't really, without permission, turn it over to anybody else because Bugs entrusted me.
I probably ought to burn the map.
Really?
When you get right down there, I mean, I'll talk to Robert about this in a moment, but I have no illusions about what it would occur if I were to go down there.
I'd probably assuming that I found bones or remnants of these creatures, the police would be there.
The police would be there.
I would be questioned probably intensely by the police, and I'd probably get into a terrible row with them because they would be demanding the full information that I have.
So on the one hand, maybe it ought to re- Let me preface this by saying that I absolutely believe his story.
Believe as you will, I believed it when I first heard it.
I believe it now.
So I think it's true.
I think the can of worms, along with whatever's down there, would be opened up big time if I were to go down there and dig up these bones or whatever's left.
Probably bones at this stage.
Maybe skulls and teeth.
Maybe enough.
But it would look somewhat human.
And then the rest would happen.
maybe i'm wrong about that but i i don't think so you you All right, back to Robert W. Morgan.
I want to talk a little bit about the nature of Bigfoot, and we began to do that before the top of the hour.
But Robert, do you understand the dilemma here?
robert w morgan
Oh, absolutely.
I think you're between a rock and a hard space in one area.
However, at the same time, I think that even if they would be turned out to be humanoid, under the circumstances that it happened, I doubt seriously because of the circumstance, and I doubt seriously if any prosecution would when someone goes out and literally hunts Bigfoot and knowing what they know about the possibility.
art bell
There'd be homicide police, sir.
I guarantee you.
robert w morgan
They probably wouldn't.
art bell
If we brought up bones that were hominoid, there would be homicide police there, and then there'd be all kinds of hell to pay that I'm not sure I can pay.
In other words, I know who he is.
I have made a promise, and so I'd go down there, and I'd probably be slammed in jail or some damn thing if we got that far.
If I dug up bones, the police would be there guaranteed.
It'd have to be.
There'd be an investigation.
And the first question out of their mouths would be, who is he?
robert w morgan
Oh, yes.
Now, as a reporter and a member of the media, how far does it go that you can protect yourself?
art bell
I don't know.
I'd have to ask a lawyer.
I don't know if it includes that much protection for me or not.
And I guess that would be a pretty key question because if there wasn't, you know, they've thrown an awful lot of reporters have been thrown in jail for contempt.
That's what happens.
Who is it?
Well, I'm not answering.
They put you in front of a judge.
Well, okay, fine.
Sit in jail until you decide to tell us.
That's how it's done.
robert w morgan
But even if, you know, I would appeal directly to Bugs to understand that if these are humanoid, that he would have to stand the charges.
But the charges, as I say, I doubt seriously if anything would happen under the circumstances.
art bell
Yeah, but look at his thinking.
He's 56 years old now.
That's my age.
A second degree, all right, even a manslaughter charge, which would be the easiest thing I could think of, manslaughter, that would put you away for some years.
Some years.
robert w morgan
Well, again, you have to look at intent.
You know, there are hunting accidents all the time.
And these things do happen.
This man was a legitimate hunter.
He made an accidental difference, differentiation.
He made a bad judgment call, no question.
However, he's coming forward and saying, look, in the interest of science, I could have just left it out there.
I doubt that a grand jury would return anything.
art bell
You know, you're probably correct.
You're probably correct, but it would be a long procedure.
It would be something to endeavor to do, I'll tell you.
And right now, if I could just hand the map to you, believe me, I would do that.
Are you listening, Bugs?
If I could give the map to you, Robert, then what would you do?
robert w morgan
Well, I would go down and verify that they exist, and I would get the proper scientists behind me to make sure that we have a cross-index, that nobody jumps any guns, and we know exactly what the hell we're doing.
And we'd make a verification as to whether they are humanoid.
And from that point, we would have to take it from there.
I just can't.
It's going to be such a monumental undertaking and a discovery for science worldwide.
It's going to rewrite history books.
And this man is making a valiant confession that, okay, I did something wrong, but let me see if I can, A, cleanse my conscience and do something.
These people that are buried out there are dead for no reason at this point.
But at least they would have died for a reason.
And I think there's just, you know what we could do is take this to a judge in advance.
art bell
You know what he's going to say?
And ask for immunity.
about we're not going to get another words of the judge would say look what if this is just some set you would have I'm not about to give immunity to somebody who may have killed two human beings and buried them and cooked up a story about Bigfoot to avoid a prosecution.
I'm not going to give immunity based on that possibility.
And how do you get around that one?
robert w morgan
Well, if they turned out to be six foot tall human beings, hell, you'd be right.
But what we're saying is under the parameters, that they would fit the description of Bigfoot, etc.
If we actually drew the parameters, then the judge would say, all right, now look, if they're found under these parameters, then there would be no prosecution.
I don't know.
On one hand, the guy can just keep his mouth shut and to hell with it.
And nobody knows anything.
He's offering.
He has already done that, although he wants to wait until after he passes away.
But he's a young man.
You guys are chickens.
What are you guys talking about, getting old?
This nonsense?
art bell
Well, I mean, one never knows.
40-year-olds drop dead all the time.
robert w morgan
That's true.
art bell
Robert, not everybody is Robert W. Morgan.
Some people realize mortality sooner than later.
And it does happen.
You know, day to day, we don't know.
None of us know.
All right.
well look I already And if I could let you, believe me, Robert, I would.
We'll see what Bugs decides to do.
If he wants you to have the information, then Bugs, let me know.
Otherwise, I don't know what the hell I'm going to do.
Let's leave it there for a second.
Now, a little more on Bigfoot.
You said part of our, you know, a step in our evolution is what you believe.
Yes.
So then ultimately, how do you think a court would rule if we began to have all the solid evidence we need that there really are these creatures and that there's somewhere in between an ape and a man?
Maybe not with the you know, he used an interesting phrase with apologies, retarded, he said.
Yeah.
And so then if these creatures are what you say they are, Robert, aren't they ultimately going to have the same civil rights and protections under the law?
As rare as they are, probably more protections under the law than the rest of us.
robert w morgan
You know, a retarded person can vote.
art bell
Sure.
robert w morgan
I mean, obviously we've seen that in previous elections.
art bell
No, but I'm talking about Bill of Rights, the whole smear, and probably added protections beyond that, because they're obviously fairly rare, right?
robert w morgan
Well, in comparison to the human being, yes, they're very, very rare.
Absolutely.
But, you know, all of our history books, all of our anthropology books, our psychology, everything is going to have to make a shift because so much is involved here.
The stuff, the mythology that we have built around ourselves, you know, that we're kings of the universe, you know, and all this other stuff.
It's going to be a major earthquake.
And there's going to be a lot of scrambling to explain.
But these people, yes, under our Constitution, they have a helix.
I think you and I have gone through this before, but for your new listeners, they have a helix, which is the big toe.
This is only in humans.
They have the buttocks that we sit on.
That is not pungenti, that is not apes, that's human.
They have an articulated speech that you and I have heard on the recordings come back, in which they actually repeat English words.
So they have their own language.
They come back using English words in a proper way.
That's right.
When they responded, you're not welcome in that particular phrase, they were imitating what other people had said to them.
That was cognitive.
So here we have cognitive thought.
We have the opposing thumb.
Now we have the hyoid bone.
They habitually walk erect.
I mean, what the hell more do you have to have?
Of course, humans have an interesting thing.
Every time an ape or something gets close to them, they come up with a new, oh yes, but we do this, you know.
The gorillas are not worth a damn.
They don't have cognitive thought.
I think that's nonsense.
Coco has proven this many times over.
So we're in a bit of a dilemma here, and I think of all things, and I have to agree with him, and I know you don't like to have your popo padded, but the fact is I think he gave this information to the right man.
art bell
Well, thanks.
robert w morgan
Now it's your problem.
art bell
Yeah, now it's my problem.
As I said a little bit earlier, to me, this is a terrible problem.
I might end up burning that map.
I might end up burning it.
robert w morgan
I hope not.
I hope not.
But at the same time, I think it would be well understood if you had.
I'm going to make sure that I send to you, if you'll forward it to Bug, a copy of that cassette of mine, because I want him to listen to it and follow the directions so that perhaps Bugs, and I know you're listening, I can teach you a way of going out and communicating with these people passively.
And something might happen for you, not to you, for you.
And that's what that tape was created for.
So I'll send it down to Art and I'm sure he'll send that on to you.
art bell
Even in view of what Bugs did, you think forgiveness would be in their repertoire?
That if you were to get out and near one of these creatures, as I know you have done, and you know how to do, that he'd come out of it alive.
robert w morgan
Yes, and I'll tell you why.
art bell
With a new friend.
robert w morgan
If they wanted him, they would have walked over at night and come through the house and gotten him.
If he's that close to the river and if he sounds like he's on a farm.
art bell
Have you ever seen him exhibit that kind of behavior?
robert w morgan
You mean forgiving?
art bell
Well, that's a good place to go.
Forgiving would be good.
But more to the point, you said that if they wanted him, they would have gone to his house and they'd have had him a long time ago, right?
robert w morgan
Yes.
I think that they have a long memory.
I think that, I'll give you an example.
In Scamenia County, Washington, there was a fellow by the name of Sheriff Bill Clausen.
And I got to know Bill a little bit.
And there had been an elk hunter killed in Scamenia County, not too far from a town called Cougar.
And the fellow had killed an elk and gone over and fired three more shells that were not in that elk.
And he was killed.
He was dead.
And that gun had been wrapped around a tree, had been bashed terribly.
And a Marine happened to be in that area of all things, a Marine, and he had seen something go through the woods.
And it turned out that the likely scenario was that this fellow had shot the elk.
He had tracked the elk for about two miles.
He came up on it, and apparently a Bigfoot was there.
He opened fire on the Bigfoot.
The Bigfoot took the gun and wrapped it around a dang tree, your Bennett.
Well, Clausen was caught.
I believe Bill has passed away now, so it's okay to talk about it.
But Clausson, apparently, his organization was caught in a dilemma.
What are they going to say?
He was killed by a Bigfoot?
No, they said that he had fired his gun and that the elk had killed him.
Yeah, and so what did they do?
Another instance, not too far from there, there was a logger that had been chased after he had fired on a Bigfoot.
And he had chased and they hit him with a rock.
It killed him.
After he had fired on a Bigfoot.
And yet the other people went into that area and they had zero problems.
art bell
So you have seen or know of behavior like that?
robert w morgan
Oh, yes.
And at the same time, I went into those identical areas with the same Bigfoot families.
art bell
Yes.
robert w morgan
And they left me gifts.
So what does it tell you?
They realize it's different.
art bell
I'm not sure what it tells me.
It might tell me a lot of things.
It might tell me they're telepathic.
It might suggest to me they're telepathic.
robert w morgan
It very easily could be.
art bell
Or just empathic.
In other words, they understand the intentions as a creature does intuitively.
They understand your intentions.
Believe me, depending on how I approach my cats, they'll either take off running or they'll purr and throw themselves on their backs and their bellies in the air so they can be scratched, right?
And rubbed.
And that's what they love.
But if you come to them the wrong way, they can tell as you're coming up on them.
Stalk a cat and see what it does.
unidentified
Oh, yeah.
robert w morgan
Well, the funny thing is, see, this is why I never, again, I ask people never, ever take a gun or, believe it or not, a camera.
Don't take it with you.
art bell
No camera?
robert w morgan
No.
And here's the reason why.
What do you do with the camera?
art bell
You take a picture.
robert w morgan
That's right.
But what do you do with it physically?
You raise it to your face.
art bell
And shoot, yes.
robert w morgan
Yeah, and shoot.
art bell
Oh.
robert w morgan
Get it?
Yep.
How in the hell do they know what you're raising is that's a mechanical device and you raise it up towards your face and you point it at them.
You pointed the gun.
art bell
Yeah.
robert w morgan
Because that's why most people don't get pictures.
It takes a very rare instance to get a picture.
art bell
Are you a believer in the Patterson film?
You think that was real thing?
robert w morgan
Oh, if you'll recall, I showed you the other two Bigfoot in that film.
art bell
Oh, yes, I know.
I remember.
Yes, of course.
And I'm asking you for the new audience here.
robert w morgan
Oh, I see.
I'm so sorry.
What happened in that film?
And, you know, they came up with this nonsense that, oh, the suit had been made by a Hollywood guy.
Let me tell you something.
If he'd made a suit that well with muscles moving at it, he would have sold that suit because Hollywood had nothing anywhere near like that.
Number one.
Number two, if he was playing a joke on Patterson, how did he know Gimlin wasn't going to shoot him?
Three, did Patterson do it?
Hell no.
He didn't have enough money for that sort of thing.
He had enough trouble feeding his family.
So number four, we discovered that because there was something wrong with the way that female acted.
She walked away in the middle.
She didn't run for the forest.
That bothered me.
And as I told you, my adopted father, Nino Kachis, finally kept pointing and telling me, hey, dummy, you're looking in the wrong area.
So one night when I was working on the eclipse and looking through it, I accidentally went off of color and I was looking at black and white and I scanned backwards and I found the young baby.
art bell
That's right.
Very clear, by the way.
robert w morgan
And he's sitting down just like a little kid.
He's got his hand up around the thing.
And she's walking away from her baby.
And then we look ahead of her, and here is this male leaning out, watching.
Now, hell, what is she doing?
She's saying, okay, two white guys, follow me, and I'm going to take you to Big Daddy, and we're going to knock your bloody head off if you mess around with our kid.
And it makes sense.
art bell
Yes.
Robert, hold it right there.
I want to open the phone lines here in a moment.
If you have questions for Robert W. Morgan, then now would be the appropriate time.
I'm Mark Bellin.

Good morning, everybody.
My guest is Robert W. Morgan, and we're talking about Bigfoot.
And he really is the man who knows about Bigfoot.
So, what can I say?
Stay right where you are.
lots more to come you All right, back to Robert W. Morgan.
We're going to get you on the line with him here in a second.
Shannon in Orange County asked, could you possibly ask Robert to email you the complete description or illustration of the location of the child Bigfoot and male Bigfoot in Patterson film?
And would you post that?
Your website isn't up right now, is it?
robert w morgan
No, it's not, but I can give you an email address.
It's RWM the numeric4 big sky.
art bell
At big sky?
robert w morgan
Bigsky at AOL.com.
RWM numeric4 big sky at AOL.
art bell
Big Sky at AOL.
robert w morgan
And that Big Sky, that's Montana.
art bell
Gotcha.
Okay, when do you anticipate you might ever get your website up again?
robert w morgan
Well, I'm working on it with Scott Zelesko at Artist First Group.
Those are the folks that are handling my cassette, and they're working with Steve.
And we expect probably within the next week or so, we should have our website.
art bell
Let me give you a good plug For your cassette, too.
What's on there?
robert w morgan
Oh, the cassette, this is the first half of it on the audio cassette is an actual experience that had taken place in Ohio.
And I'm talking about this is recorded by Scott Church.
This is a full theater type thing.
Otherwise, you actually experience what we experienced.
The second half of the cassette, the other half, will tell you step by step what you can do so you can do what I do.
If you follow it exactly the way I ask.
art bell
Which is come face to face with the Bigfoot.
robert w morgan
That's right.
If you handle it correctly, now we've had 16 people so far, and good God, we've sold over 5,000 in these cassettes.
But it's pretty difficult.
It's not an easy thing.
You don't just go out and stroll for five seconds.
art bell
But you're saying you have 16 people that have done it.
robert w morgan
Yes, they have come forward and they have told me.
Now, I have asked each one of them, and so far they've all declined to have themselves, their name revealed.
art bell
Now, see, there you are.
Now, you're talking about people declining just a witness report, right?
robert w morgan
Right.
art bell
Attaching their name to it.
robert w morgan
Exactly.
art bell
So understand what the situation is with bugs.
People are going to say, ah, it's no big deal.
robert w morgan
Sure, I have hundreds of them like that.
art bell
Wrong, it's a big deal.
robert w morgan
But if they follow the cassette, if they follow what I ask them to do, and if they do their research, the chances are.
And can I give the address on that?
art bell
Is there a phone number?
robert w morgan
Yes, it's 888 295-2787.
art bell
What do they ask for?
robert w morgan
And, well, they'll answer the phone.
This is Artist First.
They ask for the Robert W. Morgan Ultimate Adventure, Bigfoot, the Ultimate Adventure.
art bell
All right, how much is that?
robert w morgan
Hell, I don't know what they're charging that right now.
I have no idea.
I think it's $10, I believe it is.
art bell
Off $10, all right.
1-888-295-2787.
robert w morgan
Right, and they can go to the website directly, artistfirst.com.
One word, artistfirst.com.
And it's quite a good adventure.
It really is.
art bell
All right.
I've got a lot of people who would like to talk to you.
robert w morgan
Okay.
art bell
So let's rock.
robert w morgan
All right.
art bell
First time caller line, you're on the air with Robert W. Morgan.
unidentified
Hi.
Hello.
art bell
Hello.
unidentified
Yes.
art bell
Where are you?
unidentified
I'm Lancy, Michigan.
art bell
Okay, far away.
unidentified
I was calling to ask him, I know that Bugs mentioned that when he first spotted the Bigfoot, that they had bright deep red eyes.
That's right.
If they were human-like, would the eyes not be reflective?
robert w morgan
Probably they would not be.
But at the same time, I wanted to ask him what the color eyes of human beings are when you hit them directly in the eyes.
Have you ever seen photographs taken?
And what do you get out of a human eye?
unidentified
Every once in a while, either blue or greenish color.
robert w morgan
Or you might get a red dot also.
It's according to the frequency of the light that you're using.
I'm pretty sure that's what the situation is.
art bell
Well, he was using halogen.
He said they were using halogen.
robert w morgan
Yes, he does.
unidentified
It was like 50-watt halogen lights.
No, 500.
500, something like that.
robert w morgan
Right, right.
That's what he said, 500.
art bell
So any idea, Robert, what a 500-watt halogen pointed at a human would produce?
robert w morgan
No, I don't.
I can find out pretty quickly, but the ones I'm using are nearly, my God, they're 50,000 candle power the ones I use.
art bell
But I have seen that was in the 1970s, though.
robert w morgan
Well, that's true.
I have seen members of my own party turn around and look toward me at certain angles, and I've seen a pink glimpse.
So I'm not sure what to answer on that one.
art bell
All right.
Wild hard line, you're on the air with Robert W. Morgan.
robert w morgan
Hello.
unidentified
Hi, Eric.
What I started to say before was that probably just assume that they're already moving on you with warrants and just burn the thing now.
You know, because you're going to get it again later.
You know, ultimately, one last time, you're going to get a piece of mail from him through his lawyers.
And if Bugs doesn't call back by now to say, you know, go ahead and give it to him.
Just get rid of it.
art bell
All right.
unidentified
You know?
art bell
Anything else, sir?
unidentified
Well, one last question.
I need a favor, a piece of information if you've got it.
Vacuum tubes.
Anybody sell them, you know, of underground?
Oh, yeah.
art bell
Oh, no, you don't have to go underground.
They have antique radio catalogs.
You can buy vacuum tubes.
unidentified
Thank you.
art bell
All right, take care.
Just look antique radio tubes.
Enter that in search engine.
You'll find plenty of them.
East of the Rockies, you're on the air.
unidentified
Hi.
Good morning, Art.
This is Robert calling you from Jacksonville, Florida, W-O-K-V.
Yes, sir.
First of all, fully correct.
It's no longer retarded.
It's merely challenged.
Okay, well.
But my major question or thought is that I would hope, for humanity's sake, that this information would not be destroyed.
It would be, I don't know if Robert has the financial backing or if there's some way that we might be able to contribute to get a team that would be willing to go down there.
Could it be an archaeological dig or something like that?
For humanity purposes, I would hope it's not.
art bell
I think as public as it is right now, sir, it is what it is.
My dilemma is what it is.
Period.
unidentified
I just hope that some way, somehow, that these two beings or whatever could contribute to, like Robert says, that we find out and they would be protected in the future.
robert w morgan
That's the whole thing, and I couldn't agree with you more.
And I hope that this somehow comes about and comes to pass one way or the other.
But I certainly applaud you, sir, for wanting this to come to fruition.
And certainly I'm ready to walk out and get in the van right now.
But we'll have to take it as to what it is.
art bell
That's up to Bugs.
That's right.
If Bugs decides he wants to trust you with this information, brother, it'll be on the way to you, believe me.
West of the Rockies, you're on the air with Robert W. Morgan and Art Bell.
unidentified
Hi.
art bell
Oh, and I'm sorry, I didn't push that 10 bunch of sticks.
West of the Rockies, with the sticking button, you're on the air, hi.
unidentified
You got me now?
art bell
Yes.
unidentified
Hi, how are you guys doing?
I'm calling from the Mount Shaft area.
art bell
Yes, sir.
unidentified
See, I'm concerned about Bugs and his mental state of mind.
He seems really, you know, broken up about this quite a bit.
art bell
Yeah, I think he has been for a lot of years.
unidentified
You know, I'd like you guys to, you know, if it's possible, jump on it as soon as possible, find out from some legal people and reassure him that he's not liable for any type of criminal wrongdoing.
Maybe, or if you can, call him and get permission from him to be able to maybe fax that or to Robert, the map.
art bell
Fine, so Echelon can get it now, huh?
unidentified
Well, I don't know.
However, you can get it, you know.
art bell
They probably, they'd already have it.
unidentified
But get, you know, Robert's permission maybe to get him involved in that.
And maybe, Robert, you could, you know, try to reassure Bugs the value of this find and being able to protect those people in the future.
art bell
But you've got to understand, sir, from my point of view, only with Bugs' permission.
You see, I can't.
My promise was a very sacred one to originally do this show, and that was to never, to anybody, identify who he is or now, indeed, also where these creatures are buried.
I've made that promise, and I take it real seriously.
I've done it with a number of other things over the years, and I take it very seriously.
robert w morgan
You know, after what happened to a lot of the nom vets when they came back, I think that I can speak for some of the guys.
It's awfully nice to find out that there is someone in America that they can trust.
unidentified
Yeah.
robert w morgan
Because they sure got the crap kicked out of them by their government.
art bell
Yeah, they sure did.
First time calling online, you're on the air with Robert W. Morgan.
unidentified
Hello.
Good evening, sir.
My name's William, and I'm in Texas.
I'm a former homicide investigator.
I was wondering if there was something that I could do to help.
art bell
Well, you've been listening, right?
unidentified
Yes, sir.
art bell
So if you're a homicide detective, you tell us.
What are we looking at here?
unidentified
There's always ways around homicides like that, if they do turn out to be hominoids.
It's kind of difficult, but in the events that he described, there's always a defense to prosecution in everything.
in everything.
And if you had...
art bell
If we proceed down there and dig up bones in their hominoid bones, hominid bones, the police are going to be, you folks are going to be involved right away, aren't you?
unidentified
Not necessarily.
If you started out as an archaeological dig, it's completely out of our jurisdiction until we're called in to investigate a homicide, if the archaeologists think it actually is a homicide.
Until then, the police have nothing that they can do about it.
robert w morgan
Okay, so under Texas law, we would be protected to go down, exhume the bones, and turn them over to science to discover exactly what they were doing.
art bell
Without interference from the law.
unidentified
Without interference from the law.
That's pretty common in most states.
art bell
Wonderful.
I'll tell you, most times I've heard when they turn up some kind of unidentified body and it's obviously been human or looked human or they find a bone, the police are almost there always right away.
From what I, everything I, you know, I watch TV, what do I know?
But that's how a lot of investigations begin.
You know, somebody digs up a mostly decomposed body of some kind.
robert w morgan
Well, Detective, may I ask you, if we were to go into that area, would it be to our advantage to alert the state and tell them what we're doing?
unidentified
Ahead of time.
No, actually, the only thing that you would need to do is set it up originally from the word go as an archaeological dig looking for what I would term as old remains.
That's the way they do it here in Texas when they're doing Indian burial grounds up in Mexico in northern Texas.
art bell
Detective, is there a legal definition of old remains?
I mean, we're only talking about 30 years here.
We're not talking about previous civilizations.
unidentified
There is no direct definition of old.
You could be digging up an Indian burial ground for all that we know, and you find humanoid remains.
It would take scientists from any university that does archaeological work sometimes months to determine how old the bones are.
art bell
Fascinating.
robert w morgan
All right.
art bell
Thank you very much.
Thank you.
I don't know.
I don't know if I buy that.
I'll tell you, Robert, I've watched so many TV pros.
I suppose he could be right if we weren't already so public about this, that you could proceed with what you would call an archaeological expedition.
robert w morgan
Which we could under the American Anthropological Research Foundation, which I already have.
We could do exactly that.
art bell
You listening, Bugs?
I'm not the one you've got to convince here.
robert w morgan
Yeah.
What we should do is take that detective along with us as an advisor.
art bell
That's right.
Wildcardline, you're on the air with Robert W. Morgan.
Hello.
claire sylvia
I'm calling from the Detroit area.
art bell
Yes.
claire sylvia
And it occurs to me that one of the problems with this is that Bugs has already said that at the time they buried these creatures, they thought they had killed people who were developmentally disabled.
art bell
No, he said that occurred to them as one possibility, right?
claire sylvia
Well, but anyway, they thought of that at the time they were burying them because of the way they looked.
And this means that they knew they were doing something illegal at that time, as they understood it.
It's just like if you hit somebody And you drive away from the scene, maybe hitting them was an accident and would be excused in court.
But the fact that you left the scene is something that's going to get you dragged back.
And so they buried them.
That was the point at which it might have become a matter for intervention by the authorities, even if the rest of it sounded clear.
The other thing is, why don't you just send the map back?
art bell
Hold on.
Thank you very much, ma'am.
Those are all good questions, but I'm going to have to interrupt for a second because I've got to make a quick call.
I've decided I want this on the air.
Let me see if I can do this.
Come on, Donald.
Okay, let me try and dial this number.
Hold on, Robert.
We're in the middle of something here.
Okay, let's see.
bugs in texas
All right.
art bell
Let me see if we can do this.
unidentified
Yes, it's me.
art bell
Bugs?
bugs in texas
Yep.
art bell
It's you?
bugs in texas
Yeah.
art bell
All right.
Just say a few more words.
I want to be absolutely certain it's you.
bugs in texas
It is absolutely me.
art bell
Okay, I know it is, because I dialed the number.
He called me on a break on a special phone here, and Robert, he said, give him the map.
You're sure you want me to give him the map?
bugs in texas
Art, I've lived with it for too many years, man.
I don't know.
I want it exposed so bad, Art.
I don't want to go to jail.
I've got two young grandkids.
I don't know what to do.
Listen to that detective just now.
Listening to Robert.
I'm in a hell of a dilemma.
robert w morgan
Yes, you are.
bugs in texas
You know, I have not asked for one dime out of this.
I don't want no money.
art bell
No, I know you haven't.
You haven't written a book.
You haven't done anything in all these years.
bugs in texas
I know.
And I don't know what to do.
robert w morgan
Bugs, can I make a suggestion?
Yes.
Sleep on it.
Just relax.
Just relax.
You've already gone through a hell of a trauma here.
Why don't we all take a couple of steps back and think this out?
Because you don't rob it yourself and your grandchildren, that's for sure.
bugs in texas
I have your email.
You can go ahead and tell Robert who I am and give him my phone number.
robert w morgan
We can talk.
bugs in texas
I can trust him.
art bell
You know what, though?
Listen, Bugs.
I kind of agree.
Why don't you sleep on it?
And I'll call you tomorrow, Bugs.
bugs in texas
Okay.
art bell
Because there are, you know, there are possible ramifications.
I won't kid you.
bugs in texas
I know that, Art.
I know that.
But you know, it's been 30 years nearly.
It's pretty hard to live with something like that.
And like I heard some of the listeners to say, if this is what it is, then it's going to rewrite history.
robert w morgan
Yes, it is.
Bugs, just relax, I think, and just kick back, book out for a short time.
Let me do some research on my own, and maybe we could even work an immunity situation.
I don't know.
Let me think, too.
Let me do some thinking also.
bugs in texas
I would like to show it.
I would like for you to have it, Robert, because I think you're a decent person.
I think you're an honest person.
robert w morgan
Well, thank you.
art bell
I think he is, too, for what it's worth.
He's a great guy.
bugs in texas
And I know Art is, I think Art would go to jail and spend the rest of his life in jail before he'd release it.
I would.
Who I am.
And I'd hate it.
art bell
But I'd do that.
I would never reveal your name.
You know that.
bugs in texas
I know that.
But it's just one of them situations, I just, I want it out so bad I can taste it.
But I still have that fear.
Just still have that fear.
art bell
Now, you're giving this to Robert under what conditions?
bugs in texas
He talks to me first before he does anything.
robert w morgan
Oh, okay.
Well, I wouldn't, obviously, if I had the map, I would not go there.
bugs in texas
We have got to make sure that I am not going to be in trouble.
robert w morgan
Right.
bugs in texas
I just don't want to do that because.
art bell
You know, you know, all this is really going to do, I'm with you, I know you're 56, and it would be years, or could be, and, Robert, it's a consideration.
All this is going to do is shift the responsibility from me to you, Robert, if you get this if you get this man.
robert w morgan
What are you talking about?
I'm holding your hand.
bugs in texas
Yeah, that's right.
art bell
But I mean, it is going to put you in roughly the same position I'm in because he doesn't want to get in trouble.
And after investigating, there's no way you can assure him you can't get in trouble, then there's no way you can proceed.
Am I right, Bugs?
bugs in texas
That's correct.
robert w morgan
Well, you know, at my age, I have this horrible thing that happens to every event.
I have this terrible memory blanks.
I have these things that happen.
I just can't remember where I am or what I've been doing.
bugs in texas
All right, Bugs.
art bell
All right, fine, good.
I'm happy.
Bugs, thank you, brother.
bugs in texas
Okay.
art bell
Take care of you later.
About it.
See you later.
Robert, you stay there.

All right.

One of the creatures of the night, that would be me.
Boy, I just put myself in all kinds of strange positions, don't I?
Well, I think that's what's protected me so far is that it's all pretty strange.
And until you take a step, like a physical step toward doing something, the authorities out there probably over the years have gone, ha, ha, ha, ha, Art Bell, huh?
unidentified
Okay.
art bell
Back now to Robert W. Morgan.
And, oh my, the problems we run into.
Somebody here, Fast Blast, Robert.
That's it, Art.
unidentified
Thank you, guys.
art bell
Religious interference just might be a heavy problem for you.
You know, it's an interesting question, Robert.
If we were to actually produce a being that was intelligent, whose DNA set it apart from human beings and made it a rather obvious predecessor to human beings, that would be a problem for some in the religious world, wouldn't it?
robert w morgan
Yes, it would.
But at the same time, you know, it places them in a problem, doesn't it?
You see, I don't believe in defending myself.
When I see somebody pull their fist back, I attack.
art bell
I agree.
I'm with you.
robert w morgan
Yeah, and so my attitude is this.
You know, if we go back through history, Galileo, there's so many things that were stood in the way.
Liebenhoek, when he did the microscope, they tried to put him in prison because they said that the devil was painting those little microbes because they didn't believe germs were in there because it wasn't in their Bible, you know.
Well, neither is the panda bear, you know, but for God's sake, don't tell the panda.
These people are going to have to come to grips with reality as opposed to wishful thinking.
And some of them, I think, will attack, obviously.
But if the bones are there and the reality is there, I think they'll land on their feet and come up with some rational explanation that fits into their dogma.
But the problem really is not ours.
It's theirs.
art bell
If there was a debate, let's imagine for a second, Robert, that there was a debate about whether a prosecutor, for example, should pursue here what would happen if a prosecutor began pursuing it with pressure to lay this out as nothing more than a double homicide, let's say.
Let's put it this way, Robert.
I can imagine such pressure for reasons beyond simple prosecutorial consideration.
In other words, I see politics behind this.
You follow me?
robert w morgan
Yes, I follow you.
If I were a politician, if I were a politician, and thank God I'm not, but if I were, I believe under these circumstances, I would want to lead the church to find out exactly what these bodies are, and I would reserve judgment.
A wise man, if he doesn't know the answer, steps back and waits.
art bell
Yeah, and I think it's wise that we advise bugs to do that.
I think you should think about this overnight or more.
And, you know, I'm perfectly willing to turn over the information as he's requested, but I'm going to get a sort of a next day thing from him before I proceed.
robert w morgan
Oh, next day, I would wait a week or so.
Just take your time.
There's no rush.
None of us are in a rush.
I've waited too many years and worked too many hours and years to rush to judgment.
But if I were a politician, I think what I would say is what we're after here, and this is politically correct, is the truth.
And that's the major thing.
Is it true?
No matter what the outcome is, no matter how the chips fall, no matter what the genetic code comes out of the DNA, all we're interested in, all any of us, you, myself, everyone, we're interested in the truth.
Anyone who comes out against finding out the truth.
art bell
But a lot hangs on that DNA test.
robert w morgan
Oh, yes, it does.
art bell
And for one thing, Bugs has just finished telling you, as he told me, that if there's any chance that he's going to get prosecuted out of this, he doesn't want to do it.
robert w morgan
Well, I don't blame him.
And, you know, I don't think I would do anything if I thought there was any danger to him.
What I'm going to do, actually, we should discuss it off the line, but I have a plan in mind, and I think I'm going to go to the top dog.
art bell
Yeah, we're reduced to discussing this on the air right now, but I guess that's all right.
Look, it's all laid out, so we might as well.
I just think, you know, you mentioned earlier trying to get some sort of immunity from this.
And I really can see going to a judge and trying that, but I can see the results of it, too.
I just, in my wildest dreams, I cannot imagine a judge offering Complete immunity based on a story like this that I thought it was Bigfoot's.
The judge and the legal system, I guarantee you, are going to think of this more like double murder than they are as anything else until the DNA tests are back.
Right.
robert w morgan
Right, right.
art bell
And once they're back, then either we've got, you know, a double murder on our hands or we've got something that science needs to look into.
But at best, it's what kind of chance is there?
Maybe 50, 50 as far as bugs is concerned.
And if the DNA comes back the wrong way, they're going to want you to be turning over bugs like now.
robert w morgan
Right.
Well, I think...
art bell
Let's take some more calls.
This is not so easy.
First time caller line, you're on the air with Robert W. Morgan.
unidentified
Yeah, hello.
Hello.
Yes.
How you doing, Art?
art bell
Okay, sir.
Where are you?
unidentified
I'm in Colorado.
art bell
All right.
unidentified
Calling from Denver.
And, you know, I was deer hunting about four years ago with a partner in a high country buck hunt.
And we backpacked into a wilderness area in north central Colorado.
And we were there for two days.
And we spotted two nice bucks.
And we were preparing for a shot when the bucks spooked and ran up a draw.
And at first we thought it was a bear.
It was approximately 250, 300 yards away.
And it turned out to be a Bigfoot.
Jumped out, grabbed this deer, broke its neck.
And the second one.
art bell
Broke its neck?
unidentified
Broke its neck.
And the second one came up out of the bushes.
What he had did is he had spooked these deer up to the first one up on top.
They carried it over the hill, and I guess they presumed to eat it or whatever.
And me and my partner were kind of freaked out about all this, and we were in there about eight miles.
art bell
Well, first of all, I've heard reports both ways that Bigfoot is a vegetarian, that Bigfoot is a meat-eater.
Maybe both.
Robert?
robert w morgan
Yes, they're definitely an omnivore just like we are.
art bell
So then this report doesn't surprise you?
robert w morgan
Oh, absolutely not.
They hunt for meat.
They are, it seems like a primary vegetarian at first glance because of the greeneries that they do eat.
But oh no, they're hunters just like we are, hunter-gatherers.
unidentified
Well, they didn't like us in their area.
Two days later, when we got back to our humble, meager camp, one of them must have picked up a boulder approximately two feet in diameter and placed it in the center of our tent.
And there was a stick in the trail that was broken off a tree and it was forked and it was pointing downtrail.
And this is kind of gruesome, but there was an eyeball with a stick pierced through it laying on top of the stick.
art bell
Oh my God.
robert w morgan
He's telling you it's time for you to exit the stage left.
art bell
Yeah, once you saw the boulder in the middle of the tent, that's a real big hint there.
unidentified
Well, the nearest boulders of that size were about half a mile up the creek and up the ridge.
art bell
That's even a bigger hint, see?
unidentified
Exactly.
We exited that area.
art bell
I carried this massive thing up here and I put it on your tent, see?
robert w morgan
Yep.
unidentified
Well, it wasn't a fun trip.
We weren't successful.
art bell
That's incredible.
Robert, again, this kind of behavior?
robert w morgan
Oh, sure.
Of course.
There's no problem.
To me, there's no problem because there was no violence done to anyone.
All they did was say, excuse me, this is our area.
We'd rather that you leave.
They didn't throw any stones at you.
They didn't hit you.
They didn't try to kill you.
They didn't scream at you.
Nothing like that.
They just gave you a...
Exactly.
Well, it was their hunting grounds, you know.
We put up no trespassing signs.
Well, so did they.
I don't have any problems with that.
art bell
Caller?
unidentified
Yes.
Well, you know, we heard some sounds.
The first night there, we heard, it sounded like a mountain lion, is what we thought they were.
Approximately four or five of them that surrounded us in this high country basin.
And after upon seeing that mule deer buck getting dispatched of that easily, and these creatures weren't small.
At first we thought it was a bear.
But when it stood erect and picked this mature buck up that probably weighed 250 and put it over its shoulder, I would estimate that they were probably 8.5 feet tall, both of them, dark-haired.
That's all we can tell.
art bell
Did you happen to take a look at the pictures on my website?
unidentified
No, I haven't yet.
art bell
I would be very interested in your opinion of which resembles what you saw.
unidentified
Okay, I can give you a fast blast later on.
art bell
Would you?
unidentified
Well, yeah, I'd have to get off the line to look up somewhere.
art bell
I understand.
I understand.
unidentified
All right.
art bell
Robert, any other questions for this?
No, it's pretty interesting stuff.
robert w morgan
It's pretty interesting because, you see, you were given warning.
The three or four or five lion calls around.
You know darn well five lions don't hunt together.
So this means they were great imitators.
And they gave you a message.
The first time, by screaming around your camp, you didn't leave.
So then they decided, okay, now you watched us hunt.
That's enough of this nonsense.
So they put a rock in your place and showed you the way down the trail.
I would say that's pretty darn sophisticated.
Now, a tiger wouldn't have done that, would he?
unidentified
No.
Oh, no.
robert w morgan
Oh, he would have attacked.
So, uh...
art bell
What would probably have happened?
robert w morgan
They would have probably tried to scare you by throwing rocks close to your head but not hitting you.
They're not going to overtly attack you.
Now, if you didn't leave then, believe it or not, they would have left.
Myself, I go into their areas constantly.
I never, ever carry a gun.
I don't need it.
unidentified
Well, we were prepared to defend ourselves.
I'll put it that way.
robert w morgan
Yeah, but you did beat feet down the track, right?
unidentified
Oh, well, yeah, We picked up what we could and what was left over, and needless to say, we couldn't move that boulder.
art bell
Yeah, well, those are obvious really strong signs.
Boulder, middle of tent, eyeball, pointing stick, goodbye.
So you did the right thing, of course.
robert w morgan
Now, you see, a judge would not have convicted you had, or you wouldn't think so, had that not worked.
You gone on hunting, and one of them would have perceived to have attacked you, at least put himself in a position you fired, right?
unidentified
Oh, no, I wouldn't have been scared about that at all.
robert w morgan
Exactly.
unidentified
I don't think he would have stood up in court, and I don't think there would even have been a court trial because I'd probably be a very wealthy man at this time.
I don't know about that, but I'd probably have a price on my head from somebody or whatever, but I'm sure he would have been over my mantle.
robert w morgan
Yeah, that would have been.
art bell
Or a big museum's mantle somewhere.
All right, thank you very much.
Whoa, what an interesting story.
robert w morgan
Yeah, that's not unusual.
art bell
So you've heard of hunting practices like that.
robert w morgan
Oh, absolutely.
art bell
And you've seen them leave signs of the because it indicates magnitude of intelligence, obviously.
robert w morgan
They have thrown rocks so close right near my wife's head one.
art bell
Well, throwing rocks, you know, that's fairly primitive, right up there with clubbing.
robert w morgan
Well, I don't know about that.
Over there.
unidentified
Well, if you intentionally miss, now the Palestinians are getting shot for throwing rockets.
art bell
Oh, what a good point.
So anyway.
robert w morgan
They're considered deadly weapons over there.
You throw a rock at somebody, they shoot you.
art bell
Well, they claim with rubber bullets, you know.
robert w morgan
Yeah, rockets.
art bell
Rocks and rubber bullets.
Look, we'll really get off.
robert w morgan
I get you in all kinds of trouble, don't I?
art bell
Yes, absolutely you do.
I'll go to the next line.
That's what I'll do.
Wild Red Line, you're on the air with Robert W. Morgan.
Hello.
unidentified
Hey, Miss Emily over in Hilo.
On the Big Island?
art bell
Yes, the Big Island of Hawaii.
Hi there.
unidentified
Before we came over here, and by the way, this is a real, that was a hard story to follow.
Mine's not quite as interesting as that fellow's is.
It's all right.
We were in East Texas.
My son and I, husband, we had a farm down in East Texas in the piney woods.
And we were coming home from school one afternoon down a country road, not very traveled, me and my son.
And we topped a hill, and as we topped the hill on the dirt road, over about a five-foot fence jumped this creature, and it seemed to be in slow motion.
You know, he was going, going, going.
He ran across the road.
He went over the next fence, and they were brand new fences.
They were real tight.
They were real high and real strong.
And we approached it, and he was gone into the woods.
So I lived about three miles from there, and about a week later, at night, my dogs were barking, barking, barking, all night.
And so about 3 o'clock in the morning, I decided to get up, go out, and let them out of the kennel.
I walked about 25 yards, and I heard that exact same scream, yell that you've taped before of the Bigfoot.
And I stopped dead still in the middle of the night, and I thought, oh my gosh, what is this?
And I had 10 more feet to go to the dog, so I ran to the pen.
I let the dogs out, and the dogs ran straight to the house.
Well, the next day, I had a post in the ground.
It was seamen in the ground, about a foot deep in the ground, and that thing was broke off, smooth at the ground.
And I don't know how it could have gotten broke off.
But the sound that I've heard on your program was the exact same sound I saw.
art bell
That blood-chilling scream.
unidentified
Yeah, and also the creature had a shirt on.
He had on a blue, looked like a blue flannel shirt.
art bell
Actually, you know, I'm not sure what sound we're hearing here.
It was interesting what Bug said.
I'm tempted to get it on again.
I don't have that first part.
I want the first part.
I'll try to get up to that first part.
But is that what you, Robert, you would consider a scream?
Is that a normal noise?
Is there any way to identify what that noise means?
robert w morgan
No, I would anticipate that that is just merely a threat.
It's a warning.
It's saying, get the hell away from me.
I'm going to scare you.
I'm Joe Frankenstein.
And I've seen, see, they practice.
You know, they do this, and it's like you and I, when we were kids, let's go scare somebody and hang out in the, I think they actually enjoy some of that.
And they're very good with kids.
They're very gentle with children.
art bell
Sense of humor isn't.
Well, that would be an instinctual thing.
The care of young all understand the young.
But a sense of humor, that's a really human thing.
Sense of humor is definitely a human thing.
robert w morgan
Yeah, well, they seem sometimes, I swear, it feels like they're playing with you.
Now, it could be, you know, anthropomorphic projection of some sort.
But sometimes they'll leave things and then they'll take things from you.
art bell
All right, ma'am.
unidentified
Yeah, I'll give you a little second.
Yeah.
art bell
Like that?
unidentified
Yeah, it was kind of a scream and a holler at the same time.
But you guys are at the threshold of something that's been brewing a long, long time.
And they need protection.
But I know where you're coming from.
And I know your fears.
And I know it's a lot of, you know, apprehension involved here.
But it's real.
And it's out there.
art bell
Well, but in my estimation, in a way, and I understand what Bugs wants to do, but he's handed us an impossible situation.
Because I just don't see, frankly, how anybody, myself or Robert, could go to the location promising Bugs no possibility of prosecution.
I just, how can we do that?
unidentified
Well, it's something that you're going to have to work out.
But It's got to be worked out and it's got to come forth and it's got to happen.
There's a beginning and this is it.
It's got to happen.
And it'll be okay because with technology and DNA and everything, because something's got to be there.
We don't want these killings to keep going on and on and on and they're completely extinct and we don't want them thrown in zoos anymore.
art bell
Any idea, Robert, how many Bigfoot there are or is that just a silly question?
robert w morgan
No, I really don't.
There was once a projection made about 2,500 in North America, but I think that is just simply a figure someone threw out at the time.
Somebody suggested Krantz.
Myself, I would not even begin to assume, because when I thought I was in an area with one family, it turned out that there was three, and I was stunned that there was one, and all of a sudden I'm finding three different groups.
And this was in the central part of Ohio, and just right near a place called Alliance, Ohio, where they've had this meningitis outbreak.
Just north of that, I thought I was following one family.
Hell, I ran into three separate groups.
unidentified
All right.
art bell
Hold it, Robert.
We're at the bottom of the hour.
We'll be right back.
unidentified
We'll be right back.
Thank you.
I I just need to know that you know it's the whole right to find the answer.
I used to feel hard to keep them both on one But the times have changed The less I say, the more I forgets done'Cause I lived free and still felt me a leader'Cause I'm the same as I walk on a place inside

art bell
You know, another detective just fast blasted me the absolute truth, and it's as simple as this.
If remains are found and they're found to be differentiated from humans as DNA is concerned, well, then there'd never be a prosecution.
but on the other hand if the d_n_a_ were human well and he goes dot dot dot dot dot dot and ends of that the Once again, Robert W. Morgan, Robert, oh, here's a question.
Comes from up there near you in Montana.
Chris asks, isn't it possible that these two had kids?
Now, if they were shot at and wounded and or getting away, wouldn't the creatures you have described seem to me that they would be smart enough, even in times like that, to lead hunters away from their young.
If they knew they were being fatally pursued, they would probably lead them away, wouldn't they, from the young?
robert w morgan
Well, that's exactly what Roger Pratterson's female did.
But I'm not sure that that would apply in this instance.
I mean, when you get hit by three Marines with high-powered rifles, I think your instinct right at that moment is survival.
And the fact that the female stayed with them, but I think those children, and they probably did have children, however, keep in mind, he said that they had a reddish-brown hair.
This would indicate to me that they were relatively young.
So it may be that their parents, their parents, plus the grandchildren, if they had children, those are the ones that are keeping an eye on the farm out there.
But a very astute observation, yes, and they would, if they had that ability, of course, you know, myself, I have been wounded in the legs, and truthfully, at that time, I didn't think about anything except getting out of Dodge, you know.
But I think that those Bigfoots just might have done that because it was the Patterson film, primarily.
art bell
Gotcha.
All right, here we go again.
First time calling line.
You're on the air with Robert W. Morgan.
unidentified
Hello.
robert w morgan
Yes.
unidentified
Hi, Art.
art bell
Yes.
unidentified
My name's Vinny.
I'm in San Jose, California.
art bell
Yes, sir.
unidentified
And fascinating show tonight.
A couple of things.
One, I think that in terms of protecting Bugs' identity in this whole thing, a possible strategy would be for you to be ordained as a minister in the Unitarian Universal Church.
art bell
Yeah, I know.
I got that pass.
I was so tempted a while ago.
I was going to do it.
I was going to send it in.
unidentified
And I think it might be something.
Since you do act as a confessional in many ways with lots of people.
art bell
No, don't kid yourself.
It's a talk show.
unidentified
Yeah, but this Bugs was obviously confessing to you in the amount of emotion.
art bell
Obviously, he was confessing, yes.
But it's a conditional confession in the sense that we have to promise him we have to assure him that there's no prosecution involved.
And I can't figure out in my mind how to do that.
robert w morgan
Right.
unidentified
Right.
But in terms of you protecting his identity, if you became a minister, you may be protected from having to reveal his identity in that honor.
art bell
Thank you, my son.
unidentified
You're very welcome.
robert w morgan
I don't think we can become ministers after the fact.
art bell
Yeah, that's right.
That's right.
The date would be wrong, wouldn't it?
Oh, well.
Wildcard line, you're on the air with Robert W. Morgan and Art Bell.
unidentified
Hello.
Yeah.
Hello?
art bell
Yes, go.
unidentified
Yeah, actually, my main comment was about what these Bigfoots possibly are.
For thousands of, actually at least a couple thousand years, humans and Neanderthals supposedly coexisted.
And of course, people believe that they became extinct.
Isn't it remotely possible, particularly as widespread as Bigfoot sedges have been all around the world, particularly in North America, that small patches could have survived?
art bell
No, it's entirely reasonable, of course.
unidentified
Yeah, and the reason why nobody can find them is, of course, they stay in fairly remote woodsy areas of hunt?
art bell
Actually, that's a pretty good question in itself.
And Robert, that is from what he said.
You know, hardly any of them are seen.
Very few are interacted with the way you're able to tell us you've done.
All of this.
So if there are 2,500 or even 2,000 or 1,500, we should, it seems like, have a lot more sightings than we do.
Or are you not surprised at the scarcity of the sightings?
robert w morgan
Oh, if you could see my files, I have so many sightings.
So many people see the Bigfoot.
They don't know who to talk to because when they talk to the media, they're made fun of.
The people at church shun them.
art bell
That's the only thing that will really save me tonight is the fact that, believe me, people are making fun of it and saying, yeah, right, Bigfoot.
Oh, yeah, sure.
robert w morgan
Yeah.
And the idea, the whole thing here is that, believe me, there are more sightings than you can shake a stick at, and there are more people who have seen a Bigfoot walking around than what you would ever guess if they would ever be honest and just walk over and tell you, which has happened to me so many times.
When I first went back to Ohio, I'd become pretty much of a West Coast and Florida snob.
I thought the Bigfoot was only in the remote areas.
And when the people back in Alliance and Canton and those areas tried to tell me, I didn't believe them until then I got an airplane and I flew the area.
And I took a look at it from a military standpoint.
Could I take a platoon of Rangers from the shores of Lake Erie down to, if I had to, to the Gulf of Mexico without being interacted that much with humans?
And the answer came back, absolutely.
I was stunned to find out just how closely people live, and Bigfoot lives in the proximity of what we call civilization.
And they do very well because people don't want to see it.
Number one, number two, they don't.
How many people do you know go out in the woods at night?
And if they do, they go out with a flashlight and you can see them for a mile away.
art bell
I just don't go into the woods at night.
Oh, no.
I don't do that.
robert w morgan
Actually, it's really nice.
It's pretty nice out there.
art bell
I'm sure it's wonderful.
Robert.
robert w morgan
I'll show you.
art bell
You see the watches?
You're on the air with Robert W. Morgan.
Hello.
unidentified
Yes, this is Art calling from Arkansas.
art bell
Hi, Art.
unidentified
Say, Art, let me get serious for a moment.
We have been talking about Echelon on the programs.
robert w morgan
They have satellites up there.
art bell
Oh, sure.
unidentified
Say, they know who Bugs is right now.
They know who I am.
art bell
If they want to know, they know.
unidentified
That's right.
They have satellites up there, and they're looking over that area right now, and they probably know exactly where those bones are right now if they're there.
Tomorrow morning, they probably won't be there anymore.
art bell
This is a possibility.
unidentified
This is my opinion.
The government is scared, and the government doesn't know what's coming down the line next.
And it's my opinion, I'm telling the government, you don't know what you're doing.
And the information needs to start coming out, and this is one of the best ways to do it.
art bell
Well, you could be, look, you could be dead right.
He could be absolutely right, Robert.
In other words, if we assume there really is government knowledge, for example, of the existence of these creatures, but for really large political, social, religious reasons, they choose not to reveal that they have knowledge of this.
robert w morgan
Absolutely.
art bell
You think that's the case?
robert w morgan
I know it's the case.
art bell
Then his point was they could have already intercepted these communications.
robert w morgan
Oh, it's possible.
art bell
And those bodies could be long gone.
robert w morgan
I would be damn disappointed if they didn't monitor your show, because it's a wealth of information.
On the south slopes of Mount Rainier, they had a special forces training camp.
This was just about three years ago.
They had so much trouble with Bigfoot in the area, and they were ordered not to shoot, that they had to move the special ops camp.
art bell
How do you know this?
robert w morgan
One of the guys started telling me about it.
He recognized me.
I'm minding my own bloody business in downtown Seattle, walking along.
A guy comes up and he says, aren't you the Bigfoot guy?
And I think, oh, my God.
And he said, come on.
He said, let's go have a cup of coffee.
It turned out that this guy was in the Special Forces.
art bell
He was there.
robert w morgan
He was down at Fort Lewis.
And so when he found out what my opinions were, I mean, he grilled me for about a good hour.
We ended up having lunch together.
And he finally told me, he said, listen, I'll tell you what, he says, in the north Part of the south part of Mount Rainier, we had to move our camp.
We had so much trouble with them.
Now, that doesn't surprise me one bit because the diamond-shaped area, if you look at Mount Hood, Mount Adams, Mount St. Helens, and Mount Rainier, that was my study area for 11 years.
art bell
Gotcha.
robert w morgan
So he didn't surprise me one damn bit, but I was so pleased to get him.
I said, Well, you know, you guys, he said, oh, no.
He said, strict orders, definitely.
We did not shoot them.
We're not supposed to talk about it.
He said, you don't know who I am, right?
art bell
Remarkable.
Greg, in California, doesn't specify where ass.
All right, we please ask Mr. Morgan what the average lifespan of a Pigfoot is.
robert w morgan
I have no idea.
art bell
Any guesses?
robert w morgan
I would say probably similar to ours, perhaps a bit less because of their size and the rigors of their life.
I would anticipate that an old one would be 50 years old.
unidentified
Do they build dwellings?
art bell
And if so, what sort?
robert w morgan
They would build dwellings that would be very temporary and it would be only for emergency purposes.
They don't.
So many reports I've had of them actually lying down in snow, the snow coming down, and the farmer waking up and finding three mounds in his field.
He walks out toward the mounds and they get up and walk away because they found the insulative properties of snow, if you get under it, work for you.
So they don't build dwellings the way we would know them.
Now, in the winters, it is possible, it is possible that they cache food and that they actually go into a semi-dormancy state that the Russians swear that they have discovered them this way.
art bell
Okay.
West of the Rockies, you're on there with Robert W. Morgan and Art Bell.
Good morning.
unidentified
Hello, Art.
art bell
Yes, hello.
unidentified
Yeah, this is Kevin, and I'm calling from Darrington, Washington.
Okay.
And I got a Bigfoot encounter I'd like to share with you and Robert.
Sure.
I would say back in the early 70s, my dad and I used to do a lot of high country backpacking with the horses.
I would go on what they called the hide hunt, and we'd go look for bear and stuff like that.
And now this is going to sound really weird.
This was late in the, early, early in the morning.
We had a campfire going.
The dog was laying by the fire and everything.
And I decided, well, I'm going to go down the embankment and I'm going to take a leak.
So I proceeded down the embankment.
Here I'm standing there doing my thing.
And all of a sudden, I looked up and from behind this stump there was this reddish-colored Bigfoot looking right at me, just crouching down, looking at me.
And I noticed that.
art bell
Well, that'll break your concentration.
unidentified
But this thing was crouching there, looking at me.
And it put me in hysterics, and I screamed and hollered and everything else, and they tripping and falling back to the campfire.
And that's kind of my story on that.
Did you have time to zip up?
I don't even remember.
But most of the ones in my area, I've been told, are like a grayish color or something like that.
art bell
Yes.
unidentified
But this was red.
robert w morgan
And I got a good look at it.
He was one of the younger ones.
It's like all of us.
When we were kids, and our parents said, hey, don't mess around with XYZ or you'll get hurt.
That's a dangerous area.
What did it do?
We went to check it out on our own.
The young ones are usually the ones that are seen that way, the ones with the reddish color.
The blacker they get and the older they get, and then the gray ones, they're a bit more wise.
They stay the hell away from us because they know we're dangerous.
We're unpredictable.
Right.
unidentified
Well, I hope I can see another one because it was something I'll never forget.
You know, I've told several people about it through the years and stuff.
They say, oh, you're just telling stories.
So far, the only people that believe me is my family.
robert w morgan
We'll just go out there and pee again and see what happens.
unidentified
Well, I'm up in the hills every weekend, and I try to get about 5,000 feet up.
robert w morgan
There you go.
unidentified
I'm up there every weekend looking for anything that moves.
art bell
All right, sir.
We appreciate it.
unidentified
Thank you.
art bell
First time caller line.
You're on the air with Robert W. Morgan and Ark Bell.
unidentified
Hello.
Hi, this is Dave from Rockaway, Oregon.
And I was in the military.
I'm a Vietnam vet.
And I was assigned to the 25th Infantry, a Special Forces Unit.
And I know for a fact that I've been down the elk cutting before.
And I was using a 300 Winchester with Safari load.
And I hit the elk right behind the right front shoulder abroadside, and it took three shots to bring it down.
That's a little over a 300-pound animal.
And so what Bugs was saying is absolutely right on, as far as I'm concerned, about how many times you'd have to shoot one of those to bring him down.
Does that sound right to you, too, by the way?
It sounds right.
I believe the man's telling the truth.
And the thing is, I would suggest that he gave too many clues out where he is.
I bet you, with the clues that he gave out tonight, if I wanted to, I could go in that area and I could come up either with a burial site or come up with another big foot in that area.
And, you know, if I wanted to.
Because he gave out way too many clues.
And I would suggest that you don't even play this tape or put it available to people because he gave way too many clues.
robert w morgan
Unless, hopefully, he threw us some red herrings, which he may have done.
He was an old Marine, and just maybe he threw out some red herrings.
I hope so.
By the way, did you train at any stage of your training?
Did you go up to Fort Lewis?
unidentified
Yes, I was there.
I went from there to Vietnam.
Well, actually, to the Oakland Transfer Station.
robert w morgan
Are you familiar with that area I was talking about on Mount Rainier?
unidentified
No, I'm not in general terms familiar, but I wanted to tell you of an experience we had by a place called Old Station House in Northern California.
We were going on our way to Nevada, and we stopped and rested back up against this fence in the woods.
My friend had a.22 rifle, and he was out just messing around.
I heard him shooting, so I woke up.
And in the car, we had a .30-caliber carbine, and I got out, and he said something and jumped the fence, and he said it was big, it was reddish-brown hair.
He came back up the hill from where he was, and he had about a two-foot strand, and which we still have, of reddish-brown hair about two feet long.
art bell
Oh, really?
unidentified
I'd like to send this.
I've had it since about 1989.
I'd like to send some of this for DNA testing.
robert w morgan
Yeah, Ohio State University is doing that now.
unidentified
Send them to Art Bell, maybe.
art bell
Yes, send me some by all means.
Okay.
and send enough so I can share it with Robert.
unidentified
Okay, well, I just wanted to say that I believe the man's telling the truth.
And by the way, Charlie doesn't have any reflection.
People don't have reflection in their eyes.
I've never seen a nighttime.
I've been in nighttime, daytime, middletime combat, and I've never seen a reflection from a human eye.
I have from animal eyes.
They're different, as we know, but not from human eyes.
I've never seen a reflection.
When you're with infrared vision at nighttime, and that's where it was developed in Vietnam, with microscopes or whatever.
I've never seen any reflection of a human eye.
robert w morgan
See, I have caught a pinkish glow from time to time, but it's very briefly.
It's usually what I've been using, a halogen-type flashlight at night.
But it's at an angle.
unidentified
Well, that's what maybe a flash or something like that.
We didn't have halogen back in those days, like they do nowadays, and we had regular flashlights.
And we didn't use flashlights.
We were out there with infrared vision night scopes and stuff, and we did a lot of recon.
So I believe Buds is telling the truth, and I don't blame him for being worried, but I wouldn't suggest him giving it out anymore, whether it's red herrings or not, because he talked about the length of the creek and the name of the creek.
Anybody with any knowledge and background like myself could go up there, and I bet we could.
art bell
Yeah, but without the map, I don't think you're going to find the spot to dig.
unidentified
I know, but I just want to protect him because I believe the man's telling the truth and tell who he's going to do.
art bell
Well, I do too.
unidentified
You bet.
You've got to do something with the story art because, I mean, like he used to say in Vietnam, show me the bodies.
We believe we have it, you know, at a body count, and they could be removed.
There could be enough DNA left there.
art bell
Okay, I want to say this one more time so everybody clearly understands it.
I'm living with a promise I made to the man.
In the end, this is going to be Bug's decision because he's laid down this qualifier that we can't proceed unless he's not going to end up possibly getting charged with murder or get in trouble.
robert w morgan
We have to do our homework before he does anything more.
art bell
So with that promise, and you've got to understand it's a solemn promise, in the end, I think it's going to boil down to Bug saying go or don't go.
And that's going to mean, is Bug sure enough in his mind that what he shot had so many characteristics that were non-human that at this point he's ready to say, I'm sure of it, so go ahead.
It's going to come down to that.
unidentified
I understand.
robert w morgan
He needs legal counsel.
unidentified
Well, thank you for letting me give my statement and story.
art bell
Thank you for making it.
Take care, sir.
robert w morgan
Thank you.
art bell
All right, Robert, what a program, huh?
robert w morgan
Yeah, we have some fun, don't we?
art bell
Well, I guess that's one way to put it.
All right, the number for the incredible cassette that Robert has available is 1-888-295-2787.
That's 1-888-295-2787, $10 or something worth every penny.
Robert, thank you so much for being here.
robert w morgan
Anytime.
art bell
Good night, my friends.
robert w morgan
I think we'll need to chat again soon.
art bell
Yeah, I know.
