Bigfoot hunters claim footage shows legendary creature crossing river with baby

Conspiracy theorists are convinced Bigfoot has been spotted crossing a river with new footage showing a large brown figure next to the water and appearing to carry a baby.

The video has gone viral on YouTube with over 150,000 views as debate rages over whether it is really the ape-like creature that legend says inhabits forests of North America.

The clip was sent in to the Rocky Mountain Sasquatch Organization at the start of July and shows the image of the creature in Michigan’s Cass River.

It was submitted by “Eddie V” who said that his cousin was kayaking at the time when he saw the mysterious figure.

“Not sure what it is, but I have sent it to a few people to see what they say,” Eddie said.

“Some say it’s Bigfoot carrying baby Bigfoot. Others say it’s Bigfoot carrying a deer.”

Looking at the video a large brown figure can be seen and it appears to be moving quickly with a smaller shape next to it.

The footage is not clear, though, and some viewer reckon it could just be a human being.

The area is popular for hunting and fishing so it could quite simply be somebody “in waders” as commented by one person on YouTube.

Alleged sightings of Bigfoot are not rare in the United States and more than 10,000 people claim to have seen it over the past 50 years.

They have been spread across states and it is not the first time that a possible sighting has been made in Michigan.

It has also been used to boost tourism to regions with a bill even put forward this year for a Bigfoot hunting season in Oklahoma.
