Sasquatch, also commonly referred to as Bigfoot, is a purported ape-like creature said to inhabit the forests of North America. Many dubious articles have been offered in attempts to prove its existence, including anecdotal claims of visual observations as well as alleged video and audio recordings, photographs, and casts of large footprints. Some are known or admitted hoaxes.

Tales of wild, hairy humanoids exist throughout the world, and such creatures appear in the folklore of North America, including indigenous North American mythology. Sasquatch is an icon within the fringe subculture of cryptozoology (the study of cryptids), and an enduring element of popular culture.
