Yeti in the Himalayas
The old legend of the yeti has been alive for many years but never confirmed. Therefore it has always been said it is a myth. Recently it is said, this past week, that the legendary yeti has been 'discovered'. The yeti is supposedly said to be to be a giant ape-like creature that lives in the Himalayas by trekkers and mountain climbers that have "seen him". They also say it is a dark and extremely shy creature with footprints similar to human's but larger and wider.
There minimal sustainable proof of the existence of this creature, only footprints and a few hairs that have been found and tested it different places. The conclusion that was reached with the hair testing is that the yeti is a polar bear species that was extinct 120,000 years ago. The hairs were brown, which shows the resemblance with polar bears and grizzly bears. The two samples that have been collected are relatively far in distance which can indicate that there are more than one of these creatures or the creature moves from place to place. This evidence required has alarmed various news stories where they confirm, "It is not a bear, not anything else that we've so far been able to identify."
Clearly the mythical creature, the famous yeti, has always been an intriguing mystery to many people. Documentaries, news articles, books, movies, and other things have been created in honor of the curiosity people have towards the yeti. Being it a non-solved mystery it is very interesting to research and speculate about, and with the evidence scientist have of this "creature" it gives some sort of hope to the yeti fans. It would be an astonishing accomplishment to once in for all know if the yeti is real, and if this creature actually exist and all of it is a myth. Likely to the mermaid myths, the yeti is a mystery soon to be discovered and we will be expectant to this story.
