They're still not sure what to do with it, but a family living on the Grassy Narrows First Nation in northwestern Ontario has a plaster cast of a "huge" footprint from what they think is a sasquatch-like creature.
"It's got six toes and a giant heel," said 21-year-old Judy Fobister, whose father went out and took the imprint.
"He brought it home and he showed us," she said. "I couldn't believe it. I was shocked that there is actually something out there."

"The way toes are, it looks kind of weird," Fobister said Tuesday. "They don't look normal. They're huge. The big toe is huge. If you put three of your middle fingers together, that's how wide and how long the big toe is."
Fobister said her aunt, Helen Fobister, and her grandmother, Agnes Fisher, were driving back roads of the reserve on their way to pick blueberries. They told family members that they saw a tall, slender, black creature just a few metres ahead of them.
"They said they were pretty close," Fobister said. They said it was really tall, like about eight feet tall."
The creature disappeared into the bush, but members of the family went back to look around. Fobister said that's when her father found the footprint and took the plaster cast.
She says she's grown up hearing stories about a sasquatch-like creature in the area. Now she "kind of" believes them, but would still like to see more proof that the fabled creature, which is sometimes called bigfoot, really exists.
Grassy Narrows is about 80 kilometres north of Kenora, Ont.
