Teens startled by snacking Bigfoot up Picket Creek
Account
Two youths riding a motorbike up a road claimed to see a Bigfoot and returned visibly shaken, shouting that the creatures are real. The reporter did not see the creature himself and did not visit the site that day. After the witnesses revisited the site with a relative, they reported finding footprints, a broken hornet hive, and a stick with teeth marks.
