Hiker finds 'Bigfoot' proof as experts say print is definitely 'not from a bear'

A hiker believes they have found fresh proof of Bigfoot and experts agree that the footprint "clearly isn't a bear".

Sharing the image anonymously, the hiker posted a snap of the imprint on Reddit and said they found it while hiking in California, as the Daily Star reports.

He said he found it at the top of a hike in Big Sur, a mountain range between Carmel and San Simeon, and people believe it could be evidence of a genuine sasquatch.

The image shows a clear and deep foot imprint in some mud, and several people in the forum agreed that the print definitely didn't come from a bear.

One Reddit user wrote: "This is the first imprint I have seen that isn't clearly a bear. Good find!

"I wish the print was fresher but this really does look more like a Bigfoot track.

"I don't notice the double step of a bear. It could have been human but I don't notice tread marks or shoe marks."

Another said: "Definitely Sasquatch. The upper foot impression is relative to the lower width and diameter of the depth. I'd reach out to the local BFRSO [Bigfoot Field Researchers Organisation] in your area asap."

"What a solid print," added a third.

However, other Bigfoot enthusiasts weren't as convinced by the original poster's find, arguing that it was probably just a human boot print.

"It’s a booted boot print. Next to a weirdly socked foot," one person joked.

Another wrote: "Looks just like a washed-out boot print."

A third said: "It doesn't look crazy large compared to your foot, at least length-wise, which makes me lean towards human."

But they then backtracked and added: "It is oddly wide though, and there's no tread I can see. The ground doesn't look too conducive for capturing fine details, but you'd still expect some evidence of tread somewhere in the track."
