Bigfoot Story Of The Day

    This happens in Springbrook National Forest, Southeastern Queensland, Australia in 1984. Three young people are on a hike when one of them, a woman, sees a 5 foot 6 inch Bigfoot squatting on a rock at the edge of a creek. He is playing with a twig. His hands, feet, and face are black and free of fur. He has a human/ape face, and his eyes glisten with intelligence. Unconcerned about the humans, he continues to play while the three hikers, enthralled with such a discovery, watch him. Suddenly, the three hear a strange, gurgling noise and then a crashing sound as something runs toward the cub. The cub looks behind him. The three hikers are terrified to see a huge, long arm emerging from a bush next to the cub. The arm is covered in black hair, and the hand has five fingers. The cub takes the hand, and mother and cub disappear into the forest. The three humans run in panic with the smell of a wet dog behind them. They think they saw a breast in the bush from which the arm was extended.
