Leora, thank you for responding. It's interesting to me that like you, I just thought I knew a great deal about our forests...until I started researching and reading and watching the many videos on youtube. I have listened to talks by scholars on related subjects that all point to the fact that many people have actually seen creatures that cannot be identified. They go by various names because we really dont know the species! The drawing you posted is very interesting! The color orange, the feathers..,strange. The good thing is that everyone saw it! The creatures people encounter are often tot photographed and so others tend to dismiss it as a hoax or whatever. But I'm finding out that these encounters are real. There is much research going on but the public isnt ready to accept that we humans dont know everything.
Through my research I found that in Russia in 1820 there was a "Big foot-like" woman that was caught & used as a slave. They called her Zana. If you check google it will surprise you to read about this. And yet, I had never heard os such a thing. Why? Why is this stuff so taboo?
I didnt think Sasquatches, Big foot or Chupacabras were real. I had never seen any myself so i figured they didnt exist. Simple as that! But as I research more and more, I find that real people have encountered strange creatures and, although a small percentage may be hoaxes, a large percentage are not! Thanks for sharing your experience. It's a strange creature alright!!
