More Paul Freeman Casts

Powderman asks an interesting question. It occurs to me--I'm not really the one to answer his question--that the toes on a human foot might splay out more if they were not compressed by shoes from a very young age. It also occurs to me that the human hand, which is not typically compressed by anything like a shoe, can be splayed out to the sides. Toes never compressed by a shoe on feet used for travel over a variety of terrain, not just a floor or a sidewalk, might retain the ability to splay out--might they not?

The first of the above casts doesn't look that much different, to me, than a human track--despite the wrinkles. The second one has a different, boxy look: It is porportionately wider in relation to length; hence, the boxy look. Byme's cast (see that thread) has somewhat the same look.

This whole discussion of a possible bigfoot critter started with tracks, and tracks, although they are very problematic, remain the best evidence that I am aware of that there is something out there. And I'm not yet sure that there is something out there in the way of a big hairy guy or gal.
