Primal Instincts is based on the mythological creature known as Bigfoot or Sasquatch. The myth going's back thousands of years in Native American lore. The premise of the story is that Sasquatch and humans are very close in the evolutionary chain, close enough to cross breed. I based this on a theory that Neanderthal didn't go extinct they where bred out of existence. I used the Pacific northwest as backdrop to tell the story of a Bigfoot research team investigating a sighting and finding this millenniums old secret of nature.
