Mention Bigfoot in Michigan, and most people will roll their eyes, laugh, or call you crazy. But is it really that far-fetched, or do most people simply not understand what's truly happening?

The other day, while I was going down a rabbit hole of UFO encounters in Michigan, I somehow ended up veering off into Bigfoot encounters in the state. While doing that, I stumbled upon the Bigfoots of Michigan website. The site shared a map that shows how many Bigfoot sightings have occurred in each county. While I found that really interesting, it was nothing compared to a section on encounters from the thumb area of Michigan. This is where things got wild.

There were so many interesting encounters, including:

  • Multiple witnesses watched a Bigfoot toss a dog onto a roof in Roseburg, Michigan.
  • In Millington, a family watched as a Bigfoot walked through their yard.
  • In North Branch, a father and son watched a wounded Bigfoot leap over the hood of their truck.
  • A DNR officer encountered a Bigfoot in the Minden City, Michigan, Swamp Area.

These are just some of the stories and encounters that were shared on the Bigfoots of Michigan website.

Of course, like everything else in the paranormal, you have to try and figure out if these people are telling the truth.

I still don't know if I'm a believer, but I sure do get closer with every story and video that I see. For Bigfoot to be a hoax, there would really have to be a lot of people in on it.
