Organizer

Texas Bigfoot Research Conservancy

The Texas Bigfoot Research Conservancy is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt non-profit scientific-research organization comprised of volunteer investigators, scientists and naturalists. 

With a diverse and talented roster of approximately forty members, including biologists and other professionals, the TBRC pursues education and research activities pertaining to the centuries-old “wildman” or “hairy man” phenomenon in North America. The TBRC proposes that the source of the phenomenon is a biological entity, probably an unlisted large primate. The organization is actively engaged in activities designed to test that hypothesis.

The all-volunteer non-profit TBRC is funded by membership dues, fundraisers, and the annual Texas Bigfoot Conference, in addition to donations and grants. It is governed by a seven-person board of directors elected by the general membership.
