New Oklahoma Bigfoot Track Discovered?

Posted by: Loren Coleman on May 29th, 2009


Researchers with Mid-America Bigfoot Research Center took this 2009 cast of what they claim might be a footprint of the elusive Bigfoot in the Kiamichi Mountains in southeastern Oklahoma. A group of about 30 researchers spent Memorial Day weekend looking for evidence of the creature.

This cast, made in 2008 in Chelsea, Oklahoma, is of a footprint that is about 15 inches long by 5 inches wide.

Researchers believe that a footprint they discovered over the Memorial Day 2009 weekend in the Kiamichi Mountains of southeastern Oklahoma is that of the elusive creature Bigfoot.

D.W. Lee, global director of the Mid-America Bigfoot Research Center, said the print was discovered about five miles into the woods. They were able to make a cast of the print, which measured 15 3/4 inches long and 5 inches wide.

“The toes were clearly visible on the cast after it was lifted up,” Lee said.

In addition, Lee said they heard “vocalizations” in the woods that they recognize as the tell-tale mocking calls of Bigfoot. Whoop sounds, “attempted imitations” of whippoorwills and mimicking of dove and owl calls were heard, he said.

One crew member was hit by a rock during a night hike just moments after two large animals were spied through a night scope walking on two feet across a logging road.

“A lot of people, it doesn’t really dawn on them when rocks land near them” that Bigfoot could be responsible, Lee said.

Lee and his crew are evaluating hundreds of photographs and hours of video recordings taken over the weekend by about 30 researchers.

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service biologist Scott Simmons said he has not been involved in any Bigfoot-seeking expeditions but that people are capable of collecting and analyzing data and have been doing so for years in fascination of the possibility of an unknown apelike species.

“I’m not going to tell someone they did not see or did see something,” he said.

    OK, they’ve had a clump of hair for almost a year. Has it been tested yet? And if it hasn’t, why is it taking so long?

  2. Jeremy_Wells responds:

    Even if they do have it tested, how many times has it been handled with bare, human fingers now? What are the chances of contamination?

Sorry. Comments have been closed.
