Bigfoot Mystery as Massive Ape-Like Creature Seen Walking on Google Earth
Express (U.K.) ^ | Thu, Jan 26, 2023 | Christopher Sharp

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.

The writing quality of this article is at about fifth grade level.

I think you might have it. Shadows can play a big part.

I agree,

Big foot is bear like? and there are supposed to be more than one of them? Most third graders would write a better article.

No speculation.

I ignore the pronouns on species that I recognize. They are freaky enough. And they are really dumb.

This could be smarter than some of the freaks.

But it may be a mirage.

If it is not near me, I will ignore it. smile.

If it is a threat? I think I can deal with it.

I think you’re right. I’m not sure hiker’s could/would have oriented it so perfectly to north so as to appear as a bigfoot when viewed on google.
