Reports describe a spike in Bigfoot—or Sasquatch—sightings in New Jersey. The New York Post says the Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization has listed 79 reported sightings in the state, framing the news around the idea of the creature’s presence beyond its usual Pacific Northwest legend.
The Independent similarly focuses on New Jersey, asking whether Bigfoot could be “hiding out” there. It points to nearly 80 reported sightings, presenting the story through the perspective of Sasquatch hunters and their “hunch.” While both outlets emphasize the same overall count and location, their framing differs: one highlights the logged reports from a research group, while the other foregrounds speculation and local hunter interest.
Across both accounts, the core shared fact is that Bigfoot sightings attributed to New Jersey reach roughly the high-70s, based on reporting compiled by Bigfoot field researchers.
