For the scientist who was responsible for the studies, these giant feet belong to black bears that walk on their two hind legs.

What else to say about these creatures?

  • According to research, the species we are treating is the American Ursus. It is usually found, from reports, in North America.
  • These creatures can reach, when they are in the adult stage, two meters in length and weigh about 280 kg.
  • When they smell a specific scent at the time of hunting, black bears usually walk on their two hind legs. Thus, they can have a broader view of the environment.

How was the research done?

One Institution is known to have kept complete records going back to the 20th century on people who claimed to have seen these creatures. Thus, all this material was used to start the research.

According to author Floe Foxon, the regions where there was an abundance of animals and, consequently, a greater number of humans, were the ones that generated the most reports.

But is this study, in fact, a certainty?

The result of the research raised the possibility that these big feet are from a common bear. That's because, Foxon reveals that there were reports, too, in regions where there was no presence of black bears.

It's not the first time black bears have been blamed for big feet. But after study after study, still the conclusions are the same when it comes to black bears.
