A Bigfoot expert has suggested that a 6ft 7in legendary creature could be responsible for the mysterious footprints found in Wales.

The team of Sasquatch researchers, who were working on a new TV series, discovered a 16in long footprint and a primitive lair near Caerphilly. Canadian Bigfoot researcher, Jason Kenzie, said: "It could possibly be a Sasquatch footprint... based on the size alone, it does look closer to an unknown creature than a typical human."

However, cryptozoologist and author Andy McGrath was surprised when he heard the news. He told the Daily Star: "You can't imagine my surprise when I saw the news... they had used the joke footprint that we made while filming a comedy segment about Brenin Llwyd [a Welsh wildman] on Caerphilly Mountain."

Andy explained that the section also includes a "comical take on a bushcrafting shelter being Bigfoot's house", hence the lair, as well as "several large and crudely made footprints". He said the footprints were "an inside joke by our producer, who at 6ft7in tall is our very own Sasquatch!"

Andy added: "I can't imagine how they got leaked out, but they certainly weren't meant to be taken seriously. I definitely believe that Bigfoot exists somewhere out there in the wider world, but these footprints are about as genuine as a £9 note!"

Weird Britain, which is set to be released in the Spring of 2024, will investigate the historical mysteries and folklore of Britain. Andy said: "It's not a comedy show and we do respect the many beliefs and theories we investigate, but we do also have a little gentle fun with the subject, as if to prove the fact that people are willing to believe anything when it comes to Bigfoot. I guess it looks like we accidentally proved our point!"
