An American couple is convinced they have managed to capture the legendary Bigfoot on camera. Shannon Parker and her husband Stetson were travelling on a train through Colorado when they spotted a hairy, humanlike creature moving through the woods, Newsweek reported.

“We were looking for elk in the mountains and my husband sees something moving and then can’t really explain it. So he’s like ‘Bigfoot!’” Shannon told The New York Post.

Bigfoot, also known as Sasquatch, is a legendary creature said to inhabit the remote forests of North America. Despite numerous reported sightings, footprints, and anecdotal evidence through the years, there is no conclusive scientific proof of the existence of Bigfoot.

Shannon says she herself was not fully convinced about Bigfoot’s existence until she saw the creature from the train. “It was at least six, seven feet or taller. It matched the sage in the mountains so much that he’s like camouflaged when crouching down…if you asked before our trip we would have said maybe [Bigfoot] could be real, but now we’re convinced,” she said.

Although the video has thousands of viewers convinced about the existence of the mythical creature, many remain sceptical.

On Reddit, one person pointed out that the owner of a trailer expedition company called Sasquatch Expedition Trailers is known to dress up as Sasquatch and roam the area.

More damagingly, the USDA Forest Service acknowledged the existence of the video but refused to validate its authenticity, TMZ reported. “The USDA Forest Service can't speculate or provide comments on the authenticity of the video. We'll be sure to alert the media if and when a Sasquatch is sighted by officials on National Forest System lands,” the service said in a statement.
