READ: Candidate Proposes Making Bigfoot Idaho’s Official State Animal to Boost Tourism

In Idaho's District 16 state representative race, Republican candidate Chandler Stewart Hadraba is making waves with a rather unexpected proposal—turning Idaho into the nation’s top destination for Bigfoot tourism! Unlike the usual political promises of job creation or education reform, Hadraba’s vision for Idaho involves luring cryptid enthusiasts, adventurers, and curious travelers to explore Idaho’s forests in search of the elusive Bigfoot.

Hadraba’s plan, which he sees as a boon for Idaho’s rural communities, would tap into the growing popularity of cryptid tourism. He suggests that the vast, rugged terrain of Idaho is a prime location to embrace Bigfoot fandom and attract visitors who want to venture into the unknown. “I think this is a creative way to have our rural communities and remote areas benefit more from tourism in such a great state,” Hadraba stated.

But he doesn’t stop there. Taking things to another level, Hadraba proposes designating Bigfoot as the official state animal of Idaho. This symbolic move would elevate Bigfoot’s status in Idaho, potentially leading to themed events, festivals, and a steady influx of visitors eager to track down the legendary creature in the wilderness. Hadraba aslo envisions legal Bigfoot hunting tags, a move that would certainly capture at least headlines.

While some might find the idea far-fetched, Hadraba argues that his approach could open new economic opportunities for rural Idaho communities, drawing in curious tourists who might not otherwise explore these remote areas. Idaho has a surprisingly rich history of Bigfoot sightings, with 103 documented reports according to the Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization. When adjusted for population, Idaho ranks fourth nationwide, with an impressive 5.2 sightings per 100,000 residents.

Though it remains unclear if Bigfoot advocacy will be enough to sway voters in the District 16 election, the idea has undeniably sparked conversations—and perhaps stirred the imagination of potential visitors. So, if Idaho becomes a Bigfoot hotspot, would you plan a vacation to the Gem State to track down Sasquatch?
