H istory
Stories of a wild man existed

among the Native Americans of


the Pacific Northwest long before
white colonists moved in.
Versions of Bigfoot ranged from
harmless giants who stole fish
from fishermens nets, to
cannibalistic monsters living on
mountain peaks.

These stories varied from tribe to

tribe, and even from family to


family, which meant that Bigfoot
had a lot of different names.
Similar stories of wild men are
found on every continent except
Antarctica.

It wasnt until 1958 that the Bigfoot

legend really started to kick off in the


United States. That year, a man
named Gerald Crew found a set of
large footprints at a construction site
where he worked in California.
The story gained a lot of attention
after being published in theHumboldt
Times,and was picked up by the
Associated Press, drawing
international attention.
Turns out, the footprints, were a hoax.

After the death of a man named

Ray Wallacethe brother of the


man in charge of the construction
site where the prints were found
his family stepped forward to say
that he was responsible for faking
the prints.
Scoop Beal, the editor of
theHumboldt Times,is also said to
have been involved. Nevertheless,
the 1958 prints find brought the
first Bigfoot Hunters to the area.
