The Yeti Myth

1. The Yeti Myth By Lilia and Valeria

2. The Yeti Facts • The Yeti is the Asia’s version of the Big Foot or Sasquatch. It is said to be a species but apparently doesn’t reproduce very much. • Many people say that the Yeti is and isn’t real. This is sometimes because the Yeti is a myth upon a myth. • Shangri La is said to be an ancient myth of a perfect utopian civilization in a mountain in the Himalayan mountain range. The Yeti is said to guard Shangri La from outsiders. • There is a very high chance that the Yeti species is real because of all the species of animals yet to be found, but until then, its only a myth.

4. The First Credible Sighting of the Yeti A man named Tombazi N. A. saw a large dark figure in the distance. He was a Greek photographer and found a set of fifteen footprints which he later lost because the trail was covered in thick underbrush. This took place in 1925 and is known as the first credible sighting of the Yeti.

5. Many people/scientists are baffled by the possibility that the Yeti could be a species and not just a monster. This is very possible though because many animals have not been discovered. Theories About The Yeti One of the theories about the Yeti is that the footprints found could be a Red Bear or Languor Monkey. This theory is most likely false because both animals walk on all four feet. The Yeti’s home is said to be a Tibetan fortress near where Shangri La is allegedly located. This has lots of speculation going around that the Yeti guards Shangri La.
