Efficiency and economy of muscle action during distance walking and running are maximized by reduced mobility in the tarsal joints, a fixed longitudinal arch, elastic storage in the well developed calcaneal tendon, plantar aponeurosis and deep plantar ligaments of the foot.
In contrast, the Sasquatch appear to have adapted to bipedal locomotion by employing a compliant gait on a flat flexible foot.

In the new book, Raincoast Sasquatch: Bigfoot, Sasquatch Evidence from Indian Lore by J. Robert Alley (Seattle: Hancock House, 2003; ISBN 0-88839-508-6), the author tackles Sasquatch accounts from some of the same peoples (the Tsimshian, Tlingit, and Haisla) with whom I have worked during the last eight years in northwestern British Columbia and southeast Alaska.
The Tsimshian call Sasquatch ba'wis, which is also their word for (familiar, Old World) ape or monkey -- species they did not know about until European contact, of course.
Sasquatch are not particularly elaborated in Tsimshian (and neighboring nations') legend or ceremony, perhaps even less so than most other animals in their territory.

If the Sasquatch is a herbivore, then it must migrate to warmer climates in search of food for the winter -- which would account for sightings in the southern states such as Florida, which has sightings reported in over 30 counties.
