Baby Bigfoot Photo Goes Viral, Sparks Debate

A member of the public Bigfoot Believers Facebook group posted a photo of a creature walking through a wooded area. It’s a relatively small creature, and even the deer in the foreground of the photo seem confused by what it is. Has someone spotted a baby Bigfoot?

The poster, Stephanie Wood, doesn’t claim to have taken the photograph, but she doesn’t give credit to someone else, either. Rather, it seems as if she and another person are debating the photo’s legitimacy.

“Our gut reaction to this photo is that it’s probably a short person in a costume, maybe a kid, right? But after analyzing it for a while, we’re not so sure anymore,” she wrote. “Could this be a baby Sasquatch or one of those hairy little people that pop up in reports every now and then, which are described as ‘squatchlets’? One thing we know for sure is that the truth is truly stranger than fiction in more cases than not. Chaka or a Squatchlet? You decide.”

And then the reply comments began flooding in.

One person commented: “Honestly, the deer in the photo make this 99.9% believable. This looks like an adolescent sasquatch I seen [sic] in a dream. (Never had a physical sighting but have witnessed/heard signs of sasquatch)”

While some people say the deer make the photo more believable, not everyone agrees.

One naysayer says the deer wouldn’t still be standing there: “The most obvious thing about this photo is How does that figure get so close to the deer without them bolting away? You can’t creep up on [deer].”

Beyond the deer debate, many people chime in on the look of the Bigfoot and whether it’s likely a costume or not.

“My opinion is it’s a bad photoshop,” one commenter says.

A Recycled Debate

Some commenters and other long-time Bigfoot believers online say that if you’ve followed Bigfoot long enough, you know this baby Bigfoot photo isn’t new. Tim Binnall of Coast to Coast AM links to an undated but outdated-looking website sharing the same photo that Wood shared on Bigfoot Believers, along with a few other images that appear to be a series.

Binnall claims this photo first surfaced over a decade ago and that, at the time, “it was summarily dismissed by Bigfoot researchers as being fake.”

What do you think about this photo? Have you seen it before?
