Bigfoot Is Real

Though there are many mysteries in North America to tell at campfires or when outside to insight fear, Bigfoot has always been one of the most well known. This mysterious beast is a representation of our culture and displays how the things we believe to be real, could just be a figment of our imagination. Ultimately, there have been thousands of “witness report encounters” with the mystery creature known as Bigfoot. This Yeti-like creature has aroused many questions that date back to the early seventeenth century. Over all these years, people have been searching for Bigfoot and camping out to be one of the first to have very hard evidence of him. Because it is very difficult to tell if Bigfoot is real, people have questioned his existence

It is also told that stories and sightings of Bigfoot began in the Pacific Northwest, but very few are aware that sightings of this animal are not limited to this area but occur throughout areas such as the United States and Canada (Newton, “Bigfoot). It is very hard to find “hard” evidence, but to date, the only physical evidence we have of Bigfoot's existence consists of casts of large footprints, some photographs that some researchers perceive as “photoshopped” or fake, and some hair, blood, etc. True evidence is often hard to find because the prints could easily be faked by pranksters, but some footprints have been spotted and used as factual evidence. There are standing rewards that could be close to $100,000 for Bigfoot prints. I am positive that many people have seen the pictures of a furry, tall ape-like creature but refuse to believe that it is Bigfoot because there are so many fake pictures of him. In reference to evidence, “In February 1978, Pennsylvania's York Daily Record announced that hair recovered from a car that supposedly struck a Bigfoot "came from a primate" but did not compare with

Hundreds of sightings in Northern America and Canada date back to the nineteen hundreds, though most sightings have happened in the Pacific Northwest. The first swamp ape witness was by David Thompson who was attempting to cross the Rocky Mountains on his trip he wrote in his Journal-- "I saw the track of a large Animal - has 4 large Toes abt 3 or 4 Inch long & a small nail at the end of each. The Bal of his foot sank abt 3 In deeper than his Toes - the hinder part of his foot did not mark well. The whole is about 14 In long by 8 In wide & very much resembles a large Bear's Track. It was in the Rivulet in about 6 In snow. (Bryce).” Though that might have been the first account, there have been other people who claim they had an encounter with the Sasquatch himself. For example, Frontiersman Daniel Boone claimed to have killed a large ape in Kentucky probably during the American Revolution. There was a sudden interest throughout the nation in the search of Bigfoot during the 1960’s and 1970’s, which sparked the production of Sasquatch Among Us. Many people became so interested that they did journals and even newspapers revolving around the beast. Peter Byrne, a famous researcher of Bigfoot, went on many travels to try and find Yeti and Bigfoot; he never found either, though he did have a gut feeling that Bigfoot was in quite
