Bigfoot Sighting At Louisiana KOA?

Recently there have been a few viral stories out of Louisiana and Mississippi about Bigfoot.

A few months ago, a Central Louisiana Sasquatch researcher told reporters at The Alexandria Town Talk that there are indeed Sasquatch in the Kisatachie forest, and claims he has communicated with them telepathically.

The man claims "there are Sasquatches among us. It's a matter of paying attention."

Then only a few weeks ago a video resurfaced of a supposed Bigfoot that is being heralded as "the best footage ever recorded".

This past weekend you may have come across photos from campers at the KOA in Scott, Louisiana of what appeared to be something resembling Bigfoot.

From a distance some campers grew concerned when they noticed what...well...what looked like a Bigfoot lurking at the KOA in Scott, La.

However, upon further inspection what was spotted at the KOA in Scott this past weekend was very different from the Bigfoot stories we mentioned earlier in this story.

What people spotted and shared pictures of was actually "Fred".

A Lafayette couple, who are avid campers, brought Fred along with them for a weekend camping trip at the KOA in Scott.

In fact, the couple always brings Fred along with them on their camping journeys, and Fred always gets people's attention everywhere they go.

Whether being photographed from a distance out of curiosity, or taking selfies with other fellow campers, Fred always commands attention and pops up on social media everywhere they take him.
