You Don't Know Squatch

September 28, 2012

Someone I know recently had an encounter with Bigfoot. They didn’t actually see Bigfoot, but heard some strange noises and found huge footprints on their property. There have been hoaxes throughout the years, but personally, I find the idea of such a creature existing very exciting. Whether you call it Bigfoot, Sasquatch, Yeti, the Abominable Snowman, or Momo, there have been sightings worldwide of these giant apelike creatures. Could all of these people been mistaken about what they’ve seen? Possibly, but I hope not. If you are inclined to do your own searching for Bigfoot, the Library has several books that might help you:

• Searching for Bigfoot by Stewart Cowley
• Tracking the Man-beasts: Sasquatch, Vampires, Zombies, and More by Joe Nickell
• In Search of Sasquatch by Kelly Milner Halls
• Yetis, Sasquatch & Hairy Giants by David Hatcher Childress
• Mysteries of Giant Humanlike Creatures by Kathryn Walker
• Monster Hunt: Exploring Mysterious Creatures by Jim Arnosky
