I've shared many stories of strange creatures in Missouri over the years and anecdotally said that the Show Me State is ground zero for Bigfoot sightings. Now, there are two new comprehensive maps that prove that point is true.

One of my colleagues was kind enough to point me to Bigfoot Maps which is an effort to document where people have seen a strange creature or signs of one being near. Just look at all the Missouri reports.

If you zoom in and click on one of the highlighted areas, it will bring up a report with what that person witnessed.

There are two things to know about these newly-created Bigfoot Maps. First, it's constantly being added to and updated. Second and most importantly, you can share your own experiences.

I should also mention there is the most extensive selection of Missouri Bigfoot apparel I've ever seen on their site. If you've ever wanted to rock a hoodie featuring your favorite cryptid, this is your opportunity.

I'll end the same way I began. Are some Missouri Bigfoot stories outrageous? Yes, they are. But, there are too many people who seem every sincere to believe there isn't something odd going on. I don't know what that is, but I do believe the (Bigfoot) truth is out there.
