Bigfoot Report near Mobile, Alabama (2022)

In 2022, reports emerged from the Mobile, Alabama area of a large, bipedal, hair-covered creature observed in the wooded swamplands along the Mobile-Tensaw River Delta — the second-largest river delta in the United States, encompassing over two hundred thousand acres of swamp, marsh, and bottomland hardwood forest. The Mobile-Tensaw Delta is one of the most biodiverse regions in North America and contains vast tracts of nearly impenetrable wilderness. Witnesses described a creature standing approximately seven feet tall with dark, matted hair, observed at dusk near the water's edge. The Alabama Bigfoot Society, which has catalogued over three hundred reports from across the state, considers the Mobile Delta region to be one of Alabama's most active areas for Sasquatch encounters. Southern Bigfoot reports differ somewhat from their Pacific Northwest counterparts — witnesses more frequently report foul, sulfurous odors and aggressive behavior such as rock throwing and guttural vocalizations. The dense, swampy terrain of the Gulf Coast is largely unexplored on foot, and proponents argue that the Delta's combination of abundant food resources, year-round water, and limited human access makes it plausible habitat for an undiscovered large primate.
