[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]A piece of hoax history has resurfaced again, reportedly as “proof†of a Yeti-like or Bigfoot-like creature in Bulgaria. The “All News Web†has published a story by Jadyn Cassidy, on January 21, 2010, along with the above image. Cassidy writes, in part:
Currently the possibility that Bigfoot might live in their nation is inspiring the imagination of Bulgaria’s media, however the story goes much further back.
Apparently twenty five years ago a local took photos of footsteps imprinted in the ground in the remote Rhodope Mountains. The footprints were said to be neither that of a human or a bear but some unknown hominid.
The pictures (above) were given over to a Russian institute for further study and declared a mystery. Nothing more was heard of the story.
Recently a hiker in the Rhodope Mountains came forward and reported seeing a strange ape-like creature. Locals apparently were not surprised and claimed to have been aware of this creature’s existence for generations
