There's no such thing as 'a Bigfoot'.
Bigfoot is a proper noun, if you saw him, you didn't see a bigfoot, you saw the Bigfoot. But more likely it was some lesser Sasquatch.

Edit: Does Lemmy's markdown not support superscript?
Excuse me, sir, but I have not only seen a Bigfoot, I have been inside a Bigfoot.
Here is a Bigfoot:
Well fuck, I've been out-pedanted.
It's true. I am the master pedant.
God dammit I hadn't even realized it was you
There's no hierarchy in the sasquatch society. To them, 'bigfoot' is a slur. 'Skunk ape' is strangely a term of endearment (to them, we are their 'skunk apes', on account of the smell) 'Hairy man' is unnessecarily gendered. 'Orang Pendek' is fine, but also gendered. Wood ape' is a bit simplified, but fine. Yowie is used proudly by the Austral version, but secretly used as a bit of a slur by the North American variant to describe their southern cousins.
The Peladiens diplomatically refer to them as 'The honorable inhabitants'' (in contrast to humans, referred to just as 'the inhabitants')
Anyone ever seen a Dracula?
