Each year around 15,000 new species are found, yet despite the fact people have been hunting Bigfoot since the 1840s, not a single scrap of physical evidence has ever been found to support its existence.
Scientists have widely dismissed Bigfoot as a mix of folklore, misidentification and hoaxes. After centuries of alleged sightings there would have to be a substantial number of bigfoots to maintain a breeding population, yet no one has ever found a dwelling/nest, droppings or a body, let alone manage to capture a living specimen.
Despite the the lack of any evidence to back up its existence, many people still believe that Bigfoot exists. Are you one of them? If so, how much do you know about the legendary beast? Test your knowledge below...
