JustCurious 199 Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 I've been doing more checking on this one. The fur pattern in the 'non-foot' picture is consistent with what a bear's fur looks like. The shape of the foot is consistent with a bear. Bears are known to mess with trail cams, so behavior is consistent with a bear. What is NOT consistent with a bear is that there doesn't appear to be any fur between the ball of the foot and the toes as would be expected in a bear and we don't see any claws. I'm thinking it's possible this is a young bear cub. Aside from something 'mythological', that's the only possiblity in my opinion. Link to post Share on other sites

VAfooter 721 Posted October 5, 2018 Admin Share Posted October 5, 2018 Just something that stuck out to me.... I noticed that the temp at the time was 55 degrees. That seemed a little cool for an OK night in the middle of summer. Checking the weather for the area it shows that the lows for that time period was in mid 60's. The local temp shown in the cam footage was a good 8-10 degrees cooler, so I wonder if it was up in the mountains a bit? Henryetta proper is at low elevation (less than 700 feet). Like I said, just something that seemed odd... 1 Link to post Share on other sites
NCBFr 319 Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 (edited) In case you were not aware, the guy that posted this on Reddit is not the owner of the picture and does not have the original with all of the metadata. He said he would try and get it but alas nothing new posted in Reddit from him on this subject in a week. I think you need the original to see if there are claws which really will determine a lot about the picture. Edited October 5, 2018 by NCBFr 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Like I said, just something that seemed odd... I live in Chattanooga city limits. When I go to my parents house to visit 20 miles away in the country it's usually 10 degrees cooler. Most cities record the official temperature at the airport, at least Chattown does. Link to post Share on other sites
WSA 1,117 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 So what I take away from the straight-faced assertions that this photo could maybe be, totally, of a skunk's or bear's foot is: Don't be so closed minded that that your brain dies from a lack of oxygen. We will probably never know what this is, exactly, but we already know, or should know, what it most definitely isn't. Link to post Share on other sites

Whistler 59 Posted October 18, 2018 Author Share Posted October 18, 2018 Give it time- I’m sure he’s being pulled in multiple directions, but I do think this holds a lot a value.. even though it’s not the clearest picture... Cheers! Link to post Share on other sites
adam2323 128 Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Well my observations it’s definitely not a bear or any mammal foot I’ve seen. And secondly it’s really impossible to give any accurate size. Just not enough here to say one way or the other Link to post Share on other sites
RedHawk454 46 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Its a human foot, maybe a wide human foot toes are too close to be a Sasquatch theres some photos even here on bigfootforums that are from movies. people were debating if they were real and didn't know it was from a movie. If It was a movie called letters from the big man. Link to post Share on other sites
KronoFury 8 Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Just came across this post and am very intrigued. If that foot is connected to a living non-human, then I am leaning toward a young juvenile pushing his boundaries. Supposedly Sasquatch and other animals can sense infra red, so it is possible a small one became aware of the trail cam by his senses or was made aware of it by an older, wiser one and just decided he didn't like it. It does not look human at all, even without taking the visible hair into account. Like others have pointed out, the toes are too uniform, the calf and shin connect to the foot in a more central position opposed to closer to the heel like a human's. I haven't seen enough mid-tarsal breaks to really know what to look for, and the high step with the foot aligned completely vertical as is indicative of Patty's stride is all very interesting. If it is a hoax, it is someone with more than an average understanding of great apes and how a Sasquatch is believed to be built structurally. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
