Bigfoot Sighting Could Impact Elk County Businesses

In Elk County, hunting store employees are hoping that Bigfoot means big business.

"It certainly created some activity for us," said Jeff Buccheit, who works at Smith's Hunting store in St. Marys.

Buccheit referred to pictures taken by Rick Jacobs, of Johnsonburg, which show a strange creature that no one has been able to identify.

Jacobs took the pictures on a game camera, which uses motion sensors to take pictures of animals.

According to Buccheit, hunters are free to search for whatever they want to with the cameras.

"If someone comes in here for a trial camera, I'm certainly going to sell it to them," he said. "If people are coming here to watch birds, they'll certainly come to look for Sasquatch."

The animal in the pictures has been called a mangy bear, a gibbon and, of course, Bigfoot.
