(Hoax) Fulton County, Illinois Bigfoot?

What the frick is this?! Is it a bear? A Bigfoot? Mexican Heironimus, perhaps? The creature above was captured on a trail cam and sent to Prairie State Outdoors by Jean King in Fulton County, IL. According to Bigfoot Evidence reader, Jim S., there are no bears in Illinois. Jim posted the following message on our Facebook fan page:

Found this in the archives of Prairie State Outdoors. the link to the page is - http://www.prairiestateoutdoors.com. The caption to the photo said it was in Fulton County, IL. As bears are not a current recognized species in Illinois, this leads to the question. What is it? - Jim S.

Here's the the photo caption via Prairie State Outdoors:

And last but certainly not least is this from Jean King in Fulton County. Writes King: “The trail camera in my family causes a lot of excitement to see what has been recorded. Even the lady at the photo lab was amazed! Jeff Keefauver’s comment ... “Either that’s Mom or we have a problem.”
