Bigfoot Mystery as Massive Ape-Like Creature Seen Walking on Google Earth

Conspiracy theorists believe the shape on Google Earth could be of the mythical creature Big Foot.

Conspiracy theorists have gone into overdrive after spotting a creature they believe to be Big Foot on Google Earth. The shape was spotted in western Colorado at coordinates 38°16'24" N. 108°08'32.

Big Foot is a mythical bear-like creature believed by some to live in the woods of North America.

The screengrab was posted in a Reddit community dedicated to sightings of the creature.

The caption of the screeshot stated: "Is it a bear? A puddle? A hiker without gear? Impossible to say for certain but the darker areas of the subject align with the shadows of other objects nearby.

"Measures around 7-7.5 feet. Appears hunched over. Subject does not appear on other satellite images from different years which might imply that subject is mobile or not stationary object."

They wrote: "I’m actually quite familiar with that general area. I lived in Montrose for 26 years and used to camp and hike on the Uncompahgre Plateau.

"There was one section on that loop hike that sometimes gave me the willies in a vague and undefinable way, and at least one other person I know said the same thing about that area.

"I don’t know about the image, but I do know that the Uncompahgre Plateau is big, rugged, and at least POTENTIALLY squatchy."

This isn't the first time a mythical creature has been spotted in the United States, recently photos captured what some thought could be the Loch Ness monster off the coast of North Carolina.

However, unlike the Loch Ness monster, there is believed to be more than one Big Foot.

Also known as a Sasquatch, there is believed to be more than one roaming the Earth's surface.

The myth of Big Foot originates from when the United States was dominated by tribes.

Some of these tribes drew cave paintings depicting a large creature covered in hair.

Furthermore, 16th Century Spanish explorers also reported large creatures that prayed and watched their camps during the night.

Google maps cannot find 38°16’24” N. 108°08’32.

Until someone shoots one and can prove it IS one they don’t exist IMO.....that goes for the loch Ness monster and extraterrestrial aliens for that matter.

If you measure it on google earth it is about 7.4’ “tall”.

Although the sun appears to be pretty much straight overhead looking at the shadows from the trees.

So it appears that this Bigfoot died suddenly and fell over mid stride. Or some bored campers did it with black garbage bags or paint, or it is a digital manipulation.

I went to it but had to use my cursor location indicator. It is in Colorado. Around it are about fifty cows. I think this could be a cow with a calf nursing.

If one takes the frame from Google Earth and switches to Street View, the AI will try to fill in what the object is.

Learned this looking at my deer feeders & pig pipes.

Saw hogs on my pig pipes and Street View filled in the side profiles of the hogs

Looks like a stump or some such. I’d be more curious about the alien face in the treetops 105 feet away from it toward the east.

Big Foot saw me once. None of his tribe believe him.

We have them—the only problem is that you and I do not have the necessary security clearance to take a peek...
