The alleged Bigfoot prints appeared to have been left by someone or something that wasn't wearing any shoes.
The footprints, which were discovered by Aaron Thiel along a woodland track near Lexington, Kentucky, formed deep indentations in the mud and clearly showed all five toes.

"The trail was about 2 miles and it was in and out," he wrote on Facebook. "Didn't see any people."

"As I was coming out of the woods on the trail I noticed a weird foot print, that had toes. Took a pic, kept walking and then saw more fully formed humanoid foot prints, my boot is there for comparison."

"Size 12. It was muddy and definitely not a path to walk barefoot on."
"And they were fresh with no water in them...it doesn't make sense to me... I'm 300lbs, size 12 boot, I barely left an imprint in the ground compared to the other print."

After posting photographs of the prints on social media, other users came forward to suggest that he may have found evidence of a juvenile Sasquatch.

Others, meanwhile, accused him of perpetrating a hoax.
