Do you drink the bug juice?

There are a few other students here gathered around a bonfire with this older couple who seem to be in charge. As you head over to the fire, you suddenly hear them all burst into a boisterous but intense chant:

<p>Hoping to track down the couple from last night, you feel frustrated as you look around the tree octopus site. No mention of them at all.
You remember that Jenny said librarians are really good at tracking down hard to find information and decide to ask for their help.
Since you don’t have time to just stop by and ask one of them right now, you fill out the “Ask Us” form on the library website instead and head to class.</p>

<h3>[Research Help] Pacific Northwest Tree Octopus</h3>
<p><b>George Fox University Libraries</b>
<span style="font-size: small; color: gray;">to me</span></p>
<hr>
<p>Hi there,</p><p>Thanks for reaching out to the library. What an interesting topic you're working on!</p><p>I did a little digging and I think you may want to go back to your original source - wherever you first heard about Pacific Northwest Tree Octopi. That site that you've included has some red flags for not being a legitimate source.</p><p>You might take a look at <a href="https://libapps.s3.amazonaws.com/customers/1243/images/guide-to-evalua_15829119_02ca23add9acd4e7d765d9a5c143cdd76a64a70e.jpeg" target=blank style="color: blue; background-color: white; padding: 0px; border: 0px;">this infographic</a> on evaluating sources - it can walk you through what librarians think about when we consider whether a website or resource is a good source of information.</p><p>I also found this book on Bigfoot. It doesn't mention Tree Octopi, but if you're wanting to learn more about animals with questionable existences, it might be a good place to start. It's not in our stacks, but could be requested through Summit from one of our partner libraries.</p><p style="color: blue;">alliance-primo.hosted.exlibrisgroup.com/permalink/f/p97q12/CP71149465020001451</p><p>If we can help further, please don't hesitate to reach out. Any one of us would also be happy to meet with you in a research consultation to go over your topic in greater detail one-on-one. You can request an appointment here: <span style="color: blue;">georgefox.libcal.com/appointments</span></p><p>Best,<br />Kate</p><p><b>Kate Wimer, MLIS</b><br />Research and Instruction Librarian</p>

<p>Well, it doesn’t seem like this website is good evidence for the existence of tree octopi.</p><p>Maybe the folks at Critter Hut can help? They know basically everything there is to know about lots of different animals and they supposedly helped sponsor the event in the canyon. You can also follow up on the rest of the list you made earlier.</p><p>Where to first?</p>[[Critter Hut|Critter Cabana 1a]]

On your way to Coffee Bungalow, you start to worry a bit. There are a lot of coffeeshops in Newberg. Surely you won't have to visit all of them?
As you head inside the shop, your heart skips a beat. The older couple from the canyon are sitting just past the first bookshelf, chatting quietly.

The barista at the counter smiles as you approach.
"Do you know anything about this event?" you ask.
"Oh sure! That's MAPNO. The folks over there are founding members, along with the professor and Jud. We occasionally supply coffee for their meetings. They always tip really well."

Bigfoot lives in these woods out here by my cabin, but he’s a shy fellow and I haven’t seen him with my own two eyes yet. Your professor is always sneaking out on my land late at night to try and see Bigfoot too and they keep scaring him away.

All thanks to good old fashioned barbed wire! Now Bigfoot and I will finally be able to live out here in peace.

<p>I believe that Bigfoot exists and that he lives out here on my land. I haven’t seen Bigfoot with my own two eyes yet, but I have gotten so close.
Many people don’t believe in Bigfoot just because they have never seen a sasquatch before and neither has anyone they know. That doesn’t seem like a good enough reason to not believe to me though—I believe in other things I’ve never seen like God or the polar ice caps.
I also believe that he could exist because I believe the stories I have <a href="https://anchor.fm/wildthing/episodes/Wild-Thing-Trailer-e2oknd" target=blank style="background-color: #265B6A; border: none; color: #c9e265;">heard from lots of people who say that they have seen Bigfoot</a>, because I have seen the <a href="https://youtu.be/xVo6Vj0_Xbo" target=blank style="background-color: #265B6A; border: none; color: #c9e265;">video proof</a>, and because I trust that the FBI only spends its time <a href="https://vault.fbi.gov/bigfoot/bigfoot-part-01-of-01/view" target=blank style="background-color: #265B6A; border: none; color: #c9e265;">looking into things</a> it truly thinks might be real.</p><audio controls src="https://www.georgefox.edu/library/study-learn/audio-mysteries-murdock-20/bigfoot-lives-out-here.m4a">

Ever since I saw the reports about Bigfoot living in the Chehalem mountains I was hooked! Moved out here and built my cabin as soon as I could get the money. Been trying to spot him ever since! I swear I’ve caught him in some of my security camera pictures but he’s never fully in the frame.
