Hypertrichosis isn't paranormal.
human
It sees, smells and hears you first and disappears faster than you make a decision to aim your gun.
It's nocturnal therefore is active during low-light conditions that humans suck in.
Forest is essential CQC because line of sight and fire are incredibly short.
Hunters are trained not to shoot at humanoid figures in the forest, this needs to be overcome first.
They're incredibly hard to put down, on the level of large African game: Rhinos, water buffalo, elephants, hippos. You need 700 Nitro or equivalent to reliably disable Sasquatch.
You can't see them first in their habitat, at least not clearly. All of the sightings is when they don't care and don't consider you a threat.
They're aware of your presence long before you're aware of theirs.
They understand concept of projectile weapons and threat of aiming objects.
Aiming is difficult because forests have short line of sight.
They're pack hunters, if you kill one - others will come at you from blind spots because in their domain threat is always surrounded.
They're masters of mimicking animal and human voices, communication, cooperation.
Infrasound is their weapon: they can disorient or paralyze target as well as communicate with each other inaudibly to human ear.
Once you have a corpse - fish & wildlife and other govt services will descend upon you because you've just killed an animal out of hunting season and without acquiring a quota.
Worse still, they might have some homo genus DNA in them, making them technically 'a human person' which means you've committed a murder.

I agree that a lot of them being shot and exposed is what eventually going to lead to disclosure. But it's not as easy as most think.
