They say they have a cast of a footprint 5 inches wide and 15 inches long.
A group of Bigfoot hunters claim to have found footprints and heard calls of the legendary creature in Oklahoma.
About 30 people spent Memorial Day weekend on a Bigfoot hunt in the Kiamichi Mountains in the southeastern part of the state, the Tulsa World reports. They say they have a cast of a footprint 5 inches wide and 15 inches long.
"The toes were clearly visible on the cast after it was lifted up," said D.W. Lee, director of the Mid-America Bigfoot Research Center.
Bigfoot or Sasquatch is described as a large human-like creature. While sightings are most frequent along the Pacific Coast, especially in California and Washington, reports have come in from Pennsylvania, New York, Florida and many other states and several Canadian provinces.
Lee described Bigfoot "vocalizations" as imitation bird calls, including whippoorwills and owls, the newspaper reported. He said one searcher was hit by a rock just after someone had spotted two large animals.
Over many decades, Bigfoot hunters have failed to come up with evidence to convince non-believers.
But was Shaq walking around barefoot in these parts?
In Oklahoma?!! This time of year?
I thought Janet Reno was migratory.
Well said!
I’ll only believe in Bigfoot when the dang thing is doing the “hokey-pokey” on my front yard!
And it’s made of carbon!

Bigfoot and Chubracabra are both pets that the space aliens brought with them which escaped into the wild. Everyone knows that...duh!
(btw, this is an actual published theory)

I didn’t know my brother was in Oklahoma.
While I remain a skeptic about Sasquatch and think that your other concerns are valid, the food issue is not. Bigfoot researchers claim that there are probably 4-6 thousand of the 800-pound Sasquatch spread between Alaska and Florida. That would mean Sasquatch weight about as much as a Shiras moose, the smallest of the moose species. Assume Sasquatch are herbivores (like the large apes) and eat about as much as a moose. Are enough food resources in the thousands and thousands of square miles we are talking about to support 4-6 thousand more moose? Of course, there is.
Thanks for the ping.

Kiamichi Mountains ?? Is that part of the Ouachita Mtns?
“Lee described Bigfoot “vocalizations” as imitation bird calls, including whippoorwills and owls,”
This line has me rolling on the floor laughing.
I can here it now......
Mel, did you here that?
Yea, Hank. Sounds like a bluejay.
No, its Bigfoot, he can mimic bird sounds.
Oh!
Are these Bigfoot researchers or these guys?

Harry and the Hendersons! That movie was a hoot!
Them, and dozens of other people.
I've heard that they are protected in some states. Would the fine for killing one and bringing it in be be offset by the mega-bucks it would be worth? YOU BET!
Would I be O.K. with killing it? No.
Why is it always a footprint? Why not a handprint? Or a buttocks print?.
Is it just because it is named Bigfoot.
