Red Headed Giants of Lovelock Nevada - [Bigfoot Illustrated] (Video)

Paiute Indian elders have told stories of encounters that the Paiute people have had with the Bigfoots or Sasquatches. In the Paiute language they have different names for them, one is Pahi-zoho. While most of them are red haired, some have brown or black hair. The red headed ones were said to be the meanest.

They were not like the bears or Grizzlies that the Paiutes shared space within the high sierra– the people were very afraid of these big hairy human like creatures. The Bigfoots and Indians always tried to keep away from each other, but sometimes during hard times the Bigfoots would eat young Indian children who wandered away from the group. Once they tasted human flesh the Paiutes believed they would hunt humans.

According to elders, during the war with these race of creatures, the few remaining red-haired giants took refuge to a cave, where they were burned alive by tribal warriors. In February and June of 1931, two very large skeletons and skulls were found in the Humboldt dry lake bed near Lovelock, Nevada (the home of the Paiute tribe).
