Amateur Bigfoot hunters can rejoice — sort of.

Deputies in North Carolina are hunting for the brazen thief or thieves who snatched a 6-foot-tall, 180-pound fiberglass resin Sasquatch statue from a landscaping business nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Terry Brewer, who co-owns Mountaineer Landscaping in Linville, said the unorthodox town landmark was stolen sometime late Friday or early Saturday. The creature simply known as “Bigfoot” to Brewer and customers alike had stood watch outside the business for the past three to five years, she said.

“When they came in Saturday morning, it was gone,” Brewer told The Post. “I was in shock, I never thought about it being taken. It’s safe around here and we’ve never had any problems before.”

Brewer acknowledged that the statue — which looks eerily similar to the Bigfoot named Harry in the 1987 cult classic “Harry and the Hendersons” — is an attention-getter, but it remains a mystery to her as to why anyone would target the family-run business.

“I just think it was a prank and hopefully they’ll bring it back before they get in trouble,” Brewer said, suspecting that perhaps a sorority or fraternity at nearby Appalachian State University or East Tennessee State University is behind the heist. “I think he’s going to homecoming.”

Brewer said she bought the specially made statue from a company for $3,000 several years ago and wondered how someone could be so bold as to swipe the Sasquatch from directly in front of her business.

“Why would anybody take our Bigfoot?” she wondered. “It would be so clumsy for them to get it and I don’t think anybody would need him other than us. He really brings in a lot of people for us, people stopping for selfies with him and they look forward to it.”

Brewer said she intends to let deputies from the Avery County Sheriff’s Office keep trying to track down the stolen Sasquatch through the weekend before she starts making arrangements to replace it. She’s already contacted her insurance company, she said.

“If it was a sorority thing, maybe they’ll say we had fun and return him,” Brewer said. “Hopefully, they’ll bring it back before they get in trouble.”

Avery County Sheriff Kevin Frye said his deputies have gotten at least 100 calls regarding the “iconic” statue since posting about the theft on the department’s Facebook page Saturday.

“We are chasing down several leads at the moment,” Frye told The Post. “But so far, we’ve not been able to find the Sasquatch in any of the locations that we’ve checked out.”

Deputies have responded to an unfounded report about the statue being on the back of a truck headed toward Hickory and up to five sightings in Avery and Watauga counties. But Frye believes the best bet to locate the fiberglass resin statue may come next month at the WNC Bigfoot Festival in Marion.

“Where else would a Bigfoot show up other than a Bigfoot festival?” the sheriff joked. “It’s so out of the ordinary that everybody gets caught up into it. I knew when I posted this it would generate interest, but I had no idea it would go national.”
