Apparently shamans used to use talismans and the like to “ward off” the “bigfoot”. I think too many people have reported seeing or encountering “something” to merely dismiss it as imagination. So I’d vote that it may be a type of animal that is EXTREMELY rare and lives in the most secluded wilderness regions. Or I’d go with this second possibility…it’s an unclean spirit. This spirit manifests itself in its bestial attributes to defend wilderness area that it dwells in. This would explain why Native American Tribes treated it more like a spirit than an animal. Also I’d go as far as to say I’d wager that should one encounter a “bigfoot” they could rebuke it in the name of Jesus and it “vanish” or flee.

When it comes to UFO’s, I think it’s possible that they are alien life forms. If so, there would be serious cultural ramifications but it wouldn’t be any more significant than the Europeans landing in the New World and encountering Native American tribes, it’s just in this case we’d be the more primitive society. They’d still need Jesus. I’d like to be the first to baptize an alien! LOL Anyway, it’s possible that these too have a “spiritual” purpose. It seems like alien beings always espouse a “New Age” teaching. For this reason any information on aliens is typically found next to occult books at the book store. It’s possible that these are ancient spirits of deception manifesting them selves as technological using demonic illusion because of our more modern culture. The Vikings claimed to have encountered “spirit beings” who road on flying long ships. It seems these things appear using imagery of whatever technology is current for their day. So, as with “bigfoot” I’d wager they could be rebuked in Jesus name and would vanish or flee.

That’s just my personal opinion here.
