Bigfoot expert weighs in on Colorado footage, notices one surprising detail

One of America’s best-known Bigfoot experts has weighed in on a couple’s claims they caught the mythological creature on camera during a romantic getaway in Colorado.

Michael Rugg, curator of the Bigfoot Discovery Museum in California, told The Post he couldn’t disprove footage of the Sasquatch allegedly roaming the side of the mountain during the day before hunkering down to rest, but he said he had some suspicions.

“I have to say I saw the video and [the creature] has the best chance of being a man in a suit,” he said. “It just doesn’t seem right to me.

“It’s not muscular enough. There aren’t enough details to be able to judge it but it wouldn’t surprise me if someone from it [another Bigfoot] the museum is to build publicity.”

Confessing eyewitnesses Shannon and Stetson Parker claim to have spotted the legendary lummox while enjoying a sightseeing tour on the narrow-gauge railroad between Durango and Silverton, in the far southwest Centennial State.

“We were looking for deer in the mountains and my husband saw something moving and then couldn’t explain it. So he was like ‘Bigfoot!’” Shannon, a 44-year-old contractor from Cheyenne, Wyo. told The Post.

“It’s at least six, seven feet or taller. It matches the wise man in the mountains until he is disguised while crouching… if you had asked before our trip, we would have said maybe [Bigfoot] may be real, but now we are sure.”

Shannon, who shared a video of the odd one-to-two minute sighting in a Facebook post, also said that the train conductor had told the couple about similar non-human sightings before.

“He said that he had been out on snowshoes in those mountains before and had seen footprints that were bigger and bigger than snowshoes,” Parker said.

“He has seen unexplained things too.”

Some took the couple’s Bigfoot claims for granted.

One commented “I believe” on Shannon’s post, with another saying “love!” However, not everyone is convinced that Chewbacca’s doppelgänger exists.

“And what are you all drinking?” another commented.

Parker said some doubt it could be someone, for example a hunter, in a natural disguise, or a prank played by locals for the benefit of unsuspecting tourists.

“It doesn’t look like a hunter because a hunter would have a weapon like a bow since bow season,” he added. “It doesn’t seem to bring anything.”

According to Rugg, Bigfoot does exist and he claims to have spoken to “hundreds of witnesses” as well as seen one himself.

“They’re out there,” he told The Post.

“I saw him when I was a child. He was a great big hairy man about two or three feet taller than my parents. And the one I saw had a plaid shirt only on his arms. I thought it took him off the clothesline, lifted it up to his armpit and it wouldn’t go any further because it was too small for him, so he left it on his arm.

“It was interesting to see a big foot standing there with a shirt in one hand.”

Rugg said he “doesn’t feel threatened” at the moment because he has “no preconceived notions.”

“I have no reason to fear this thing because it has no teeth and doesn’t make scary noises or chase me,” he explained.

“It just stood there and probably wanted to know how I was going to react to it.”

Rugg also claimed to have heard Bigfoot “screaming” several times while out trying to find it.

“One bigfoot yelled and the others responded then a pack of coyotes joined in…. we have experienced that several times,” he said.

“The dogs here know that if Bigfoot comes through your yard, you don’t bark and wake people up, because he doesn’t want people to know it’s there.”

He said it wasn’t clear why the alleged beasts tended to evade detection but he had a few theories.

“I think Bigfoot was watching (humans) years ago and saw us destroying buffalo for sport and taking land from native people…and they thought these hairless creatures known as humans were dangerous,” Rugg said.

“But it is a mystery…especially a scientific mystery.

“Some people think it’s an extraterrestrial because it has mind-speech.

“Others think they come from another dimension and come in and out of ours from time to time.

“I’m on the fence. I allowed them all because maybe it’s not a thing that happened – and that’s why it’s so interesting.”

It’s been a busy year for the hirsute heffalump — all summer long, alleged Bigfoot sightings were supposedly caught on camera in the woods of Mississippi.

Americans have reported sightings of the great galoot, with many reports coming from the forests of the Pacific Northwest, since the 1800s.

The description provided by the Washington National Guard was consistent with Parkers account.

“Those who claim to have seen Bigfoot have described everything from a large, upright ape to an actual hairy man, sometimes standing over eight feet tall and described as powerfully built.

The debate and research continues,” the armed forces branch wrote in a note about the legend.

The University of Arizona added that the folklore may have originated with an extinct giant ape, called Gigantopithecus, which coexisted with early humans.
