Ontario Sasquatch

is a non-profit private group of independent researchers who are investigating the existence of sasquatch or bigfoot in Ontario. We believe that if sasquatch exists, it is a flesh and blood animal that is well adapted to its habitat.

And we're here to help. If you have had a sighting or encounter with an upright bipedal creature that you think could have been a sasquatch or bigfoot, visit our Submit a Sighting page. We will always respect your right to privacy. And we will treat the information you give us with the strictest of confidence.

At Ontario Sasquatch, our goal is to conduct thorough investigations. We strive to use the highest standards of evidence collection. We will make every attempt to contact you in a timely fashion and do an on-site investigation.

We are affiliated with many respected and serious research groups in Canada and the United States. Visit our Links page for our close associates.

Ontario Reports: To provide you with an overview of sightings in Ontario, we have compiled a list of reports from many sources. All reports listed from other investigation groups are linked back to the originating websites.
We do not claim these reports as our own.

Ontario Sasquatch reports are clearly marked with a red leaf.

See our Sightings Map to locate general areas of activity.

A Call For Investigators

We're currently looking for field investigators
for specific areas of Ontario.
Thunder BayFort FrancesKenora /Red Lake /Dryden areaSault Ste. MarieSoutheastern counties

If you're interested, let us know by filling out our "Contact Us" form.

It would be helpful (but not a strict requirement) if you have tracking skills, wildlife knowledge, or other outdoor experience, such as camping or hunting. Interviewing skills are also an asset, but this is not a prerequisite for membership.

However, a healthy skepticism is necessary.

We hope to hear from you and will seriously consider your application.

Sasquatch Illustration Project

P. Barker - Artist and OSR Investigator

I'm working with witnesses who have had sightings, creating sketches of these creatures. The goal is to develop insights into what sasquatch/bigfoot may look like.

http://www.sasquatchillustrationproject.moonfruit.com/

We have provided links to Sound Files of a large variety of animals and birds.

If you have heard a sound in the forest that you can't identify, these audio files may help.

Our Hair Sample Library includes gorilla, bear and many others.

We also have a comprehensive Human Hair Article.

Notice: Cougar Alert!!

It's estimated that there are now as many as 500 cougars believed to inhabit Ontario. Be wary when in the woods ...

Visit Ontario Puma for information about these large cats.

Also see Toronto Star cougar article.

Attention!!

If you have submitted a sighting report to another investigation group outside of Ontario, we welcome you to re-submit your sighting to Ontario Sasquatch. Our investigators can make a site visit and meet with you personally to talk about your encounter. We don't want to take reports away from other organizations ... but we're trying to build a picture of what is occuring in this province. The only way we can do that is to talk with you and listen to you.

We also have a resident artist who can do a sketch, if you've had a close up sighting.
