Bear or Bigfoot?

Hunter Rick Jacobs says he got this pictures from a camera with an automatic trigger that he fastened to a tree in the Allegheny National Forest, about 115 miles northeast of Pittsburgh, hoping to photograph deer. Unsure what the heck this critter was, Jacobs contacted the Bigfoot Research Organization.

"It appears to be a primate-like animal. In my opinion, it appears to be a juvenile Sasquatch," says Paul Majeta of the Bigfoot group
.
The Pennsylvania Game Commission has a more conventional opinion of the picture: a bear with a bad skin condition. "There is no question it is a bear with a severe case of mange," says Jerry Feaser, agency spokesperson.

So, you decide: Bigfoot or an itchy Bear? Personally, we prefer the Sasquatch theory.
