Alberta Bigfoot Picture

This photo is said to have been taken in August 2012 from a trail cam. On September 6, 2012, a woman named Penny shared it on YouTube. It has had over 25,000 views.

Penny claims to have received this photo from an Albertan nature lover who wished to remain anonymous. The photo has been shared by www.MysteryHistory.tv and http://whofortedblog.com.

You can watch the YouTube video below.

There are those who declare that this is an excellent photo of a sasquatch or bigfoot, sitting reclined in the grass with his back to the camera.

A little clearer view of the photo.

Skeptics and critics of the photo will claim that this is nothing more than a bear, or perhaps a bear and her cub, some sort of large primate,  photoshop, or a hoax.

A closer view of the muscles in the upper 'arm'.

The photo below was submitted to Loren Coleman as an explanation for why this was a bear and, I'm guessing, her cub. They outline the adult bear's  body and tail in green.

Says Penny : "I know this person. They are a dogsledder and would in no way be the type to try to fool around with fake pictures. They actually think it's a bear and cub but for some reason they only have one photo. Strange."

Here is an interesting take and breakdown by ThinkerThunker :

A reference was made on another site that this was indeed a bear. But that the bear was doing a somersault. They referred to "Lucky" the bear doing a somersault. I found several videos featuring a bear named Lucky, but only saw him rolling around on the ground, not really doing a somersault. The only creature named "Lucky" I found doing somersaults was a parrot.

However, for those who dispute ThinkerThunker's views on why this is photo is not a bear, I will share some videos I did find of a bear and of a panda doing somersaults. At no time did I see them with their posterior up in the air at a sharp angle.

Sasquatch? Bear? Man in a suit? The list goes on. You're on your own.
