Bigfoot is thought to be a large, hairy, ape-like creature that lurks somewhere in North America.
One of the most infamous urban legends is the tale of Bigfoot, which is purportedly a large, hairy, ape-like creature that roams forests in the US.
The search for Bigfoot, also called Sasquatch, makes this legend among the most-discussed in America.
Using data from the Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization, which documents all reported Sasquatch spottings, Travel Channel found that there have been about 23,000 sightings of Bigfoot in the US over the years, with Washington having 2,032 reports, and California reporting 1,697 sightings.
There have also been hundreds of supposed spottings of the Sasquatch monster documented in Kentucky since the early 19th century – most recently by a couple camping in Kentucky’s Mammoth Cave National Park who was awoken by a man who claimed he saw the beast.
