Proof that Bigfoot's on Mars

It looks like the legendary critter is thriving on his new planet.

You may remember the NASA photographs from a couple of years ago that showed Bigfoot striding across the Martian landscape. Skeptics laughed at the idea.

But now there's even bigger Bigfoot evidence. Check out this photograph of a large "boot print" on Mars that is mystifying scientists.

Some believe it's an unusual kind of crater, but those of us here in Sasquatch country know better. It looks like the imprint that could be made by only one character, and I don't mean Paul Bunyan.

If it does prove to be Bigfoot's, clearly he's growing in size and finding the Martian environment most habitable. Probably because people aren't there to bug him.
