Sasquatch Discovered

Dr. John Bindernagel: Sasquatch Discovered is the biography of Canada's foremost sasquatch investigator. His intense childhood curiosity about the natural world, with a particular interest in ornithology, led to his involvement as a Junior Naturalist and his teacher dubbing him "the scientist" for his in-class contributions in junior high school. By high school, he was practicing good curatorial habits as he collected specimens for the museum he created in the family home. After graduation, he enrolled in the Wildlife Management Program at the University of Toronto where he trained for a career as an applied biologist. A favourite professor introduced him to the romance of overseas work which led to a career as a consultant biologist with the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (UNFAO) in African. Middle Eastern, and Caribbean countries.While in university he was intrigued by the story of an "ape-man" in British Columbia. During his time in Africa he became familiar with the great apes and hypothesized the sasquatch as North America's great ape. On return to Canada, he chose to live in the Comox Valley of British Columbia, close to prime west coast sasquatch habitat, to study and pursue research on this elusive animal.John Bindernagel was the author of two seminal books, a popular conference speaker throughout North America, and the Canadian news media "go-to guy" for sasquatch information. He was beloved by eyewitnesses and amateur investigators but largely dismissed by the scientific community. His story is a tribute to an upstanding man who followed his call, his passion, at great personal and professional expense. He spent his last years championing the unfolding story of the discovery of the sasquatch.
