Bigfoot sightings happen everywhere, and Minnesota seems like it would be an optimal habitat for a creature of the sort. There's lots of wooded and forest type area for one to hide, also plenty of vegetation and small critters to prey on. Here is a list of the most recent Bigfoot sightings in our state!

June 3rd, 2015 - Itasca County, Lost Forty scientific natural area near Dora Lake MN
- Strange unexplained sounds were heard, as well as loud banging and knocking sounds.
- Witness heard a tree starting to loudly crack and fall within 20 maybe 30 feet from them. A giant birch tree flung up into the air in its original upright position.
- No actual sighting, as witness fled the area in fear.

It's been a few years since Minnesota's last big sighting, I say we are long overdue! Do you have your own Bigfoot or Sasquatch sighting story? Share it in the comments below or email it to abbey@minnesotasnewcountry.com!
