Hunter’s pics revive Bigfoot debate

(Associated Press) Hunter Rick Jacobs of Ridgway, Penn, says he captured an image of the elusive Sasquatch. Or perhaps a baby Sasquatch. Or perhaps a juvenile Sasquatch...

Or maybe a bear with a skin problem.

Jacobs had a camera set up to get a shot of deer, but says he got Bigfoot instead.

"I've been hunting for years and I've never seen anything like this," Jacobs said.

"There is no question it is a bear with a severe case of mange," Pennsylvania Game Commission spokesman Jerry Feaser said.

QUESTION: Is this Sasquatch? Do you believe in Sasquatch?

Bob Kiviat, producer of “World’s Greatest Hoaxes Exposed” discusses: (And an image of creature in question...)
Bigfoot – not just a myth?

In 2006, then-editor Steve Smith of The Spokesman-Review had the idea of starting a publication for an often forgotten audience: teenagers. The Vox Box was a continuation of the Vox, an all-student staffed newspaper published by The Spokesman-Review. High school student journalists who staffed the Vox made all content decisions as they learn about the trade of journalism. This blog's mission was to give students an opportunity to publish their voices. The Vox Box and the Vox wrapped up in June 2009, but you can follow former staffers' new blog at http://voxxiez.blogspot.com.
