Excellente question. Une réponse qui me paraît logique :
Je ne pense pas qu'il y ait nécessairement une justification là-derrière (sauf dans les théories fourre-tout bizarres où bigfoot est un extraterrestre ou le résultat de manipulations génétiques). Je pense que beaucoup de gens se satisfont de l'idée que le gouvernement nous cache des choses pour des raisons qui nous échappent*, pour le plaisir de nous maintenir dans l'ignorance ou parce que cette ignorance nous rend plus faciles à manipuler.
* Le fait qu'on ne puisse même pas comprendre pourquoi la conspiration existe prouve à quelle point elle est efficace.À la rigueur, on peut se dire que la découverte de Bigfoot donnerait peut-être du crédit au monde du "paranormal", donc aux théories de la conspiration, ce qui n'est pas dans l'intérêt des gouvernements.
Cryptomundo cite un témoignage selon lequel le gouvernement américain cacherait l'existence des yétis en raison de son incapacité à s'en débarrasser :
http://www.cryptomundo.com/bigfoot-repo ... t-burning/ Citer:
In Thom Powell’s book, "The Locals", he tells of a report that he investigated for the BFRO, a group that he was involved with as an investigator for several years.
The report concerned a Bigfoot that was found during a firefighting mission on Battle Mountain, NV on August 6, 1999. A letter dated the next day was received by the BFRO from an anonymous federal agency worker who was at the scene with approximately 20 firefighters.
The letter stated that the author had observed a quadrapedal animal that was captured by firefighters. A local vet and MD were called to the scene. The animal was tranquilized and moved to an undisclosed location.
The description was of an animal that was approximately 7 and a half feet tall with human-like limbs and a face that was neither ape or man, but described as something in-between. It had five digits with an opposable thumb. It was mostly hair-covered, and was suffering from 2nd and 3rd degree burns on approximately 45% of its body.
After its injuries were attended to by the vet and MD, it was moved to an undisclosed location, against orders of Bureau of Land Management, Department of the Interior and Depatment of Fish & Wildlife.
For approximately 10 days after the report was filed, the reporting witness did not answer any emails sent to him. After the 10 days or so had lapsed, the witness contacted Thom by phone. During the phone conversation, Thom was able to learn additional details of the incident.
It took place in the early hours of the afternoon. The injured animal was on location for approximately 3 hours before being taken away in the back of a utility truck. All witnesses on the scene were debriefed and told not to discuss the incident.
You can read about the incident in its entirety on the GUST website here.
This incident would point to a government conspiracy to cover-up the existence of Bigfoot, like many other reports. While I am not a conspiracy theorist, I do maintain that it is a possibility.
I was told a story lending to the conspiracy angle by a former associate. He told me that his former brother-in-law worked for the state of Texas in the Parks & Wildlife division. He was not a park ranger, but he was in charge of the park rangers.
My former associate asked his brother-in-law what the official stance was on Bigfoot. The brother-in-law came back with, "On or off the record?" My associate said on the record. He was told, "No comment." He then asked what about off the record. He was told, "They’re out there. Their all over the place. We know it and can’t do anything about it."
The jist was that if it became public knowledge, the public would want protection from the animals. Or that they would want them to be contained or controlled by the proper authorities.
La conspiration visant à cacher l'existence des ours a moins bien fonctionné.
Je pense que la véritable raison est que les gens susceptibles de croire en l'existence de Bigfoot ou du Chupacabra ont le même profil psychologique que ceux qui sont susceptibles de croire aux théories de la conspiration. En conséquence, les deux croyances vont souvent de pair même si elles ne devraient en principe rien avoir à voir l'une avec l'autre.
