Bigfoot

Yeti, Sasqautch, the Abominable Snowman  and Bigfoot: they all are different names for the massive ape that is sighted often in the Himalayas.

It was first sighted in 1811 by a fur trader, David Thompson, who had claimed to have seen massive four-toed footprints in the fresh snow.

Soon, new sightings sprang up. In 1884, a team who had set out to capture Bigfoot claimed to have seen him by a river.

People now have managed to snap photos of him.

  1. I read a book by Micheal Morpurgo and it's about htis boy and a looking after person who escape from China because there is a war. They have to pass the Himalays. The boy gets kidnapped by the Yetis. In the book, Yetis are described as a cross between humans and gorillas and they have very long toes.
