A weird picture making the rounds online shows what appears to be a baby Bigfoot staring down a pair of deer, however, the fantastic photo is neither new nor believed to be on the level. The peculiar image was posted to a Facebook group earlier this month by a user who marveled at the truly strange scene. Conceding that the curious creature in the photo could simply be a "short person in a costume," they mused that "after analyzing it for a while, we're not so sure anymore." The picture subsequently spread like wildfire online and on various media outlets with many debating the veracity of the intriguing image.
Earnest Bigfoot believers pointed to the presence of the deer in the photo as proof that the creature is a genuine juvenile Sasquatch. At the same time, skeptics argued that the picture was a well-crafted hoax, possibly accomplished using AI. In that regard, it would appear that the doubters are incorrect as the odd photo actually first appeared online over a decade ago when it was summarily dismissed by Bigfoot researchers as being fake. Remembered only by seasoned students of Sasquatch, the image managed to reenter the zeitgeist earlier this month with everyone else seemingly being none the wiser regarding its history.
