Hi guys anyone know any information about the origins of this photo? I heard it was taken by an automatic camera and then zoomed in. It looks pretty good, if anyone knows where it came from or anything about it id appreciate it. Thanks.

I remember seeing this on another forum in the last couple of years. Can't recall who posted it however, the poster claimed it was taken up towards the Cape somewhere. From memory they were out pig hunting and took this from the road. Hope this helps, albeit just a little bit.

It's a fake...It's either a cardboard or metal cut out. You can get them on Amazon or eBay. I'm an expat aussie living in Michigan and I see them everywhere here.

It's fake, not even in australia. Look at the trees in the background.

If that's the case, show me a picture of the same cut out.

Sorry, that was for the other guy. It is in Australia, look at the road sign, they're from NSW.

That's a good picture I've always thought. I looked up life size bigfootj cut outs and there wasn't a profile that looked like this picture. There wasn't any that tried to be a serious example. This picture has shaggy hair when zoomed in. I'm not saying it's positively real but I don't think it is a cut out.

According to a post by TheYahooNaturalist on Reddit from four years ago, I conducted a fact-check on the image in question. It was originally taken in February 2019 and does not depict a Yowie; it isn't even from Australia. The image features a cut-out of Bigfoot photographed on Highway 309, just outside Paris, Arkansas. This image was previously shared on the KARK-4 Facebook page in Arkansas, USA. Additionally, a local shop sells Bigfoot cutouts made from sheet metal.
