The imagery in that shot is old taken on 12/11/18. Keep in mind that the plane that took those photographs was probably flying considerably higher and that is a digital enhancement.

The reason I choose Florida to zoom in on is because, according to BFRO, they have had 329 sighting. That makes it one of the states with the most sightings - but Washington State does have twice as many.

While you are using the Google Earth program take a good look at Florida. While it has some swamp land that is extremely difficult for humans to navigate; most of its forest are corralled by freeways, homes and farms. Google can 'see' the car in your driveway or the clothes hanging on your clothes-line - if the picture was taken the day they were there.

For privacy Google cannot get too close when they take those pictures. But that does not restrict private pilots and drone pilots from taking closer shots.

But you tell me, after taking a good look at the whole State of Florida with 'Earth' how one of your creatures could ever move around without being detected and I don't mean just a fleeting view. I could have pointed out many other areas to look at cows in the State; I see them all over the area. Also keep in mind that Florida has a major problem with feral pigs and it does have hunters out with thermal imaging scopes at night to deal with their problem.

Ive played around with Google earth view, The image of my house was taken about 7-8 yrs ago, I could tell by the cars parked outside...first off, the images on earthview are taken by a satellite, (not an airplane), street view are taken by Google cars that drive around, ( We have all seen them by now Im sure), I very much doubt a figure could be seen on earth view, even if an airplane was to fly over wooded areas, Sasquatch can look like a tree stump if it stands still and doesnt move.

You mentioned that Bigfoot could not move around without being seen in many of these areas with residential neighborhoods nearby...but THEY ARE SEEN quite frequently by people, usually crossing the roads overnight.

Um, GoogleEarth uses satellites, not airplanes.

If you Google it the answer is both. I would presume that it uses satellites over the countries it is not allowed to use aircraft and cameras. You also don't have to guess about the age of the pictures by the cars in the driveway; the date the pictures are taken is right on the bottom right side with all the rest of the information.

As far as Mr. rstevens62's comment about how they are seen frequently: Florida has had 327 sightings since 1981. The majority are from the last 20 or thirty years. The last few years they have only had one report a year; which I would not say is "frequently". I would guess there are that many reports of pink elephants and green spacemen in the same length of time.

I found this one link to a 2010 project the 'Gawker' did to see which tabloid was the most truthful: https://gawker.com/5638480/which-tabloids-lie-the-most. The best one was US Weekly at that time with a 59% of the unconfirmed reports it published during the time period they looked at turned out to be true. But their cover stories were only 35% true and they were the most truthful. To me I always thought that most of the people that read the tabloids do it for entertainment and not for truthful news. Not very often, but I have bumped into people that thought only the tabloids spoke the truth and the rest of the news organizations lied.
