Bigfoot Footprints
Footprints are the most common piece of evidence to support the existence of Bigfoot. When a footprint is found, a plaster cast of the print is often taken, and sometimes just a picture of the print. Many of the casts have been looked at by professionals and have been said to contain dermal ridges. Dermal ridges are similar to fingerprints and all known primates have them. The dermal ridges found on these prints don't appear to belong to a known primate or any other type of known animal. The majority of the casts taken look like they are too complex to be hoaxed and therefore could be linked to an unknown animal. Handprints are sometimes found as well.

The Skookum cast was taken in 2000 in the Skookum Meadows area in Washington state and is said to contain the forearm, hip, thigh, heel, ankle, and Achilles tendon of a reclining Bigfoot.

Problems with Footprint Casting
While the majority of the footprints found look real, it is possible that they are just faked by a clever hoaxster.
