A Bigfoot believer was convinced that he had found a nine-inch print from the legendary beast.
Sharing the news to Facebook, 'Bigfoot Believers' group member Chuck Headley posted a number of images showcasing what looked like an outline of a rather large foot in some sloppy mood. The mysterious print, which was spotted in Ritchie County, West Virginia, had the outline of five stumpy toes and seemed to show that the beast had strolled out of a small body of water.
To authenticate the images, the social media user added a tape measure across the footprint, showing how big it was in size. While the images where somewhat convincing, sceptics were still cynical as they all asked the same thing – 'Why only one print?'

One user, Ron Martin, said: "*sigh* Why is there always only ONE footprint? What? Bigfoot only hops on one foot then lands a mile away?"
Another user added: "Lol why always 1 print? One step & then they fly?" A third, Daniel Whittaker, said: "And yet again I ask: why is it only ONE footprint is found?"
Chuck isn't the first person to show 'evidence' of the Sasquatch online, and he certainly won't be the last. Many enthusiasts of the subject have offered various forms of dubious evidence to prove Bigfoot's existence, including video and audio recordings, hair samples, and casts of large footprints.
The world's fascination with Bigfoot seemed to kick off back in 1967 when eerie footage was captured in the Six Rivers National Forest. In what is known as the 'Patterson-Gimlin' footage, a hairy beast was seen moving through the woods in a three-minute, grainy clip by adventurers Roger Patterson and Bob Gimlin. It was reportedly the first time Bigfoot was ever filmed.
However, expert consensus is that allegations of the existence of Bigfoot are not credible. Belief in the existence of such a large, ape-like creature is more often thought to be a hoax or confusion rather than sightings of a genuine creature.
