Sasquatch in Pa.??

[mauser]

My wife just saw this in The Lebanon Daily News. I looked on the Internet and couldn't find anything except the same story in several other papers from all over the state. I grew up in Ridgway and I'd think that some of my friends or family would know about this, but so far I haven't found anyone who's heard anything about it. My mother lives in St. Marys, just a few miles from Ridgway, I just talked to her and she said she hasn't heard anything about it either.
Does anyone here know where to find more details or maybe the pictures?
The news story says the images are posted on dozens of web sites, I can't find them.

Pa. hunter's images stir Internet debate among Bigfoot believers
- The Associated Press

RIDGWAY, Pa. — It's furry, walks on all fours, doesn't have a tail and is apparently not a bear.

The only thing certain at the moment is that the images caught by an Elk County hunter have stirred new debate on the Internet about the existence of Bigfoot, or Sasquatch, as believers call the creature of folklore.

Rick Jacobs, the hunter, said he planted the stationary tree camera in Allegheny National Forest, about 115 miles northeast of Pittsburgh, to try to find a handsome buck. Instead, on Sept. 16, the camera caught images of an unusual creature, he said.

"We couldn't figure out what they were," Jacobs said. "I've been hunting for years and I've never seen anything like this."

The hunter said that after a week of trying to decipher what had walked past his camera lens, he contacted the Bigfoot Research Organization.

Stories about Bigfoot are part of North American folklore and some believe the bipedal creature inhabits many parts of the United States and Canada. Scientists, however, say there is no concrete proof that such a creature exists and brush it off as a combination of legend and hoaxes.

Images posted on dozens of Web sites have generated discussions about "Jacob's creature," as the unknown four-legged animal has become known among Bigfoot believers. The exact location of the siting has not been publicized to avoid people flocking to the area.

Paul Majeta of the Bigfoot group said he has been to the northwest Pennsylvania area and done some analysis.

"My impression is that it is not a bear," Majeta said. "It appears to be a primate-like animal. In my opinion, it appears to be a juvenile Sasquatch."

...every single year ....but never any proof (BODY) ...... but every damn year.... I guess Springer wasn't on that day or something.

I saw the supposed trail cam pics on another forum (assuming they are the same as the story mentioned).
It was a nice photoshop "insert zoo monkey into trail cam pic" job.
If they were real the person (or PGC) would be baiting the area and set trap.

Funny how there is NEVER a body (dead or alive) associated with these yearly "sightings"...
