Sceptics often point to the lack of a physical corpse as proof Bigfoot is nothing more than a culturally popular hoax. Now one researcher speaking at the Greater New England UFO Conference has given an interesting explanation into why he thinks Bigfoot bodies never turn up.

William Hill is a researcher who primarily works with the study of UFOs and aliens but has noted an apparent correlation in his research between human encounters with extra-terrestrial beings and those with Bigfoot. From disappearing creatures, fast moving objects or strange lights, clear crossovers are leading Hill to ponder a possible connection between the two.

Hill’s theory isn’t the first time a link between UFOs and Bigfoot has been argued. Dr Franklin Ruehl wrote an article for the Huffington Post detailing such correlations dating back to the 1800s.

Also speaking at the conference was Bill Brock, a renowned Bigfoot expert. Brock discussed the recent announcement from NASA that magnetic portals may be a reality and his belief in their connection to the Mothman case.

This theory ties in with what Bill Penning also spoke about in his Bigfoot sighting. According to Penning, the woods shook and tracks from the creature seemed to indicate it was chasing a deer before both sets of tracks abruptly vanished.

What do you think? Are you buying this Bigfoot theory that an alien race uses magnetic portals to travel between worlds? If anything, it might explain why a corpse of the creature has never been found.
