Alleged 'Skunk Ape' captured on trail camera in Florida

A still image snapped by a remote trail camera appears to show an ape-like creature in the middle of the woods.
Is there an unknown species of bipedal ape roaming the wilds of North America ? The folks over at the Rocky Mountain Sasquatch Organization certainly seem to think so.

This latest image, which was submitted to their website by a paranormal group, shows what is being hailed as evidence of the elusive Skunk Ape - a Bigfoot-type creature characterized by its terrible odor.

"My buddy that researches the Florida Skunk Ape was sent this from our neck of the woods," the contributor wrote. "If it's a fake it's a good one! What do you think it is?"
The still certainly seems to show an ape-like creature, although it is difficult to rule out the possibility that it is simply someone in a costume (or perhaps a puppet of some kind).

It's also possible that this is a genuine primate that has escaped from a zoo or private collector.

You can check out a more detailed video about the image below.

What do you make of it ?
