Redwood City, CA -- So far, Bigfoot has been a big mystery but that could soon change if two researchers in Redwood City, California, get a big hand from the public.

This spring, C. Thomas Biscardi and Peggy Marx are planning an expedition to an area near Mt. Shasta, California, that is reportedly home to as many as 500 Bigfoot creatures.

Biscardi estimates the Sasquatch search will take three months and cost at least $1.5 million so he's hoping corporate America will foot what is expected to be a big Bigfoot bill.

He figures an SUV manufacturer or a charter airline are natural sponsors and hopes to sell the Discovery Channel on the idea of televising the search as the "ultimate reality show."

Some people dismiss Bigfoot as a legend but Biscardi plans to search for the hairy creature in a wilderness area where he photographed a so-called "albino Bigfoot" a few years ago.

This time, Biscardi won't be satisfied until he captures one of the hairy creatures and drops it off at a zoological lab for analysis.
