Bigfoot hunters and enthusiasts burned up the internet recently with the uploading of a video of the legendary creature supposedly taking a National Park surveillance camera and attempting to bury it. The Bigfoot video has caused quite a stir, especially since the source of the footage claims to be a law enforcement officer.

The Sun reported last week that a YouTube video posted on the Sasquatch Chronicles channel was receiving a considerable amount of traffic since its uploading the last week of August. The video appears to have filmed a Bigfoot, that somewhat mythic man-like creature said to roam the woodlands of America (and, where it is known a Yeti, in the Himalayas and forests of Asia). Although brief, the footage picks up a hirsute beast dislodging a surveillance camera located inside the Sequoia National Forest in northern California, then attempting to cover it with foliage.

Wes Germer, who operates the website and the YouTube channel Sasquatch Chronicles, simply posts the testimony of an intermediary (who is apparently a law enforcement officer who was also once a game warden) with regard to the Bigfoot video footage. That worthy writes in part (the entire post can be found on the Bigfoot Hotspot Radio entry #246): “I received this video from a collage [sic] of mine. He was assigned to a federal task force working gorilla [sic] grown Marijuana. This group would go into remote areas of Northern California and set trail cams in an attempt to catch the growers on film.. This particular trail cam was 27 miles back in the Sequoia National Forest, not accessible by vehicles only ATV then foot. He retrieved the trail cam and found the attached video.”

The intermediary noted that his colleague had been afraid to pursue the imagery caught on camera, afraid of “repercussions” within the task force. He had been directed to the intermediary, who was an outspoken proponent of the existence of Bigfoot, and gave him the video. He then passed it on to Germer.
