Snap catches out 'bigfoot'

Snap catches out 'bigfoot'

www.thesun.co.uk

THIS grainy snap of a mystery beast lurking in a garden could finally prove the existence of the mythical bigfoot.

Kenny and Margaret Mahoney set up a motion camera in their grounds after their home-grown vegetables began to mysteriously disappear earlier this month.

So what do you think, bear, hoax, gorilla??

Are bears native to Kentucky?

I was going take a snapshot and embed the image, but I didn't want to get on the wrong side of Newscorp lol!

Maybe this goes a long way to explaining this sighting:

A team from the History Channel have now even filmed a segment for their show, Monster Quest, with the Mahoneys.

Good publicity!?

Looks like some sort of bear to me.

Definitely not evidential enough to say it's Bigfoot.

A couple of weeks ago this was covered by CNN.

They referenced it to being a plastic garbage bag.

Ugh.

It's something, but I don't think it's a garbage bag.

What I think is too many people are shy of the subject to be able to view it without bias.

Great thread.

It to me at least looks more like a big gorilla than a bear, doesnt really have the bigfoot look to it, but if BF is a type of ape anyway i guess that doesnt matter as much.
Not a garbage bag though.

I live in Kentucky so I got excited when this news first broke. Unfortunately though, someone debunked it and figured out that it's a crow flying towards the camera. I'll see if I can find a link.

Edit: I can't find a link with conclusive proof and not sure that "conclusive" proof exists, but here is a site that shows really good comparison between a crow in flight and the pic in question. Link.

As much as I wish it were bigfoot, I think it's probably just a crow. We certainly have enough of them around here.

I thought gorilla at first, but then I wasn't sure that gorillas existed in that area...

Yeah agreed, im sure not to many gorillas are roaming about Kentucky.
On second look i totally agree with the crow theory.

Really? A crow?

Interesting, if you could find the link that would be awesome, just goes to show there are usually simple solutions to these things!

thanks, kiwi

Yeah, I looked again, and can see how it probably is a crow.

A shame, really. Would love it if it turned out to be bigfoot.

Just updated my OP with a link.

Still wish it had been bigfoot though, lol.

Thanks gemineye, good work!

The 'arms' certainly correspond to the wings of the crow, I am a little dubious about the 'head' area of the 'BF' though.

However it's far more probable that it's a crow than a BF, so I'll have to go with crow!

Thanks again for the help mate.

It is beyond frustrating that my own government can zero in on me via satellite and make out what I am eating for dinner yet, we can't capture one clear photo of these creatures (Loch Ness too). We're like a bunch of cavemen trying to flick a lighter!

Already discussed here.

It was debunked as a crow in flight by the way.

The crow theory seems to make a lot of sense.

Did these people not even bother checking for footprints? It seems like they saw the image and couldn't figure out what it was, so instead of looking for some physical evidence they just sent the image off to the newspaper.
