Bigfoot hotspots revealed

Key points

• Washington state has been named the best place for potential Bigfoot sightings, according to a new study by Canada Sports Betting. The research assessed all 50 US states and 13 areas of Canada, using reported sightings, forest cover, population and climate factors.
• West Virginia ranked second. A separate study by retired police officer Bruce Champagne claims Bigfoot may be moving closer to towns and cities, with most incursions reported in winter and at night.
• The authors urged caution, noting the findings rely mostly on archival witness reports rather than verified records.
