OOk Alisa you got me started on this topic now

It appears that each continent in the world has their own version of Bigfoot! it is not only a US concern.

In Australia the aboriginal people know of similar creatures they called doolagarl, thoolagarl, jurrawarra and tjangara. They were said to be huge, hairy,ape like creatures who were somewhat stinky! The colonists came along and named them somewhat differently and are now known as "yowies".

The abominable snowman or otherwise known as the "Yeti" has been known to hang around the colder areas in Tibet and the Himalayas, locally known as "Chemo" or "Dremo".

It appears on doing a little research on the net, I am not the first person who thinks that 'Big foot' may be a shapeshifter, there are others who have done quite a bit of research into this phenomenon. I add a link here to a list of 'Major traits of a Bigfoot entity.

I urge you to link and read the list.
