Mountain Monsters - Part 2

In season two, episode six, the Mountain Monsters crew went hunting for the legendary Sheepsquatch of Boone County, West Virginia.

Sheepsquatch is traditionally described as a quadrapedal, bear-sized, white, wooly creature with horns, with a long and pointed head somewhat resembling a dog's. In addition to the horns, it is also said to have long, saber-like teeth; the horns similar to those on a young goat. It's front legs end in paw-like hands and it has a long and hairless tail. It is said to smell like sulfur. 

Ohio Stories From The Early Days

In the 1800s, the "Wildman" or "Gorilla" ran wild in the Ohio woods.

In late April near Stout, Ohio, a "Wildman" was being seen in the woods. After it allegedly attacked a boy, thirty armed men hunted for the creature. It was described as very tall and "almost naked". And that it could run like a deer. Another witness said the "Wildman" was wearing a pair of tattered pants.

Hmmm. Almost naked. Does that mean it was hairy?  As for the tattered pants, the mind may tell us the creature had to have clothes, that it couldn't be long hair, matted and dirty. Who knows? There is no report that the thirty men ever found the attacker.

Possible Bigfoot Seen Near Viper Kentucky

I got a submitted report a few days ago and while there is not a lot of details the area is a great place for a large bipedal creature such as bigfoot.

Viper is a small unincorporated community in Perry County, Kentucky. It is very mountainous with numerous tree species. It is not very far from me and the area is very much like my areas here in Harlan and Bell county.

Here is the report

Nebraska Bigfoot Sightings

In November (2017), the State Troopers investigated an alleged bigfoot sighting.
"Last night at about 10:15, somebody reported seeing BIGFOOT on the shoulder of I-80 near MM 197.
A trooper responded, but reported that 'Sasquatch remained elusive.'

Must have just missed him."

Harriet Mcfeely and friend Robin Roberts were on their way back from Colorado. Roberts had dropped Mcfeely off at her home and continued on her way. A short time later, she called Mcfeely, excited, to tell her of what she had just witnessed.

Shampe Monster - Choctaw Tales

One of the misconceptions and errors made by many bigfoot/sasquatch researchers is taking the Native American tales of giant, hairy beings and lumping them all together and calling them Native names for bigfoot. Not exactly correct.

While there are many hairy, and non-hairy, giants in Native lore, they are not all necessarily bigfoot or sasquatch. A theory to consider is that perhaps there are different races of bigfoot and sasquatch and perhaps these different Native beings belong to those different races. They may not be what we commonly think of as sasquatch. Or they may be something else altogether.

Interpretation of Kooshtakaa for Alaska Monsters.  Posted to the internet by CrypidHunter25

Kooshtakaa Of Sitka, Alaska

On January 23, 2018, Alaska was hit with an earthquake measuring 7.9 on the scale. It was felt throughout most of southern Alaska and into British Columbia. A tsunami warning was also issued and evacuations were ordered, sending those along the shore inland to higher ground.

The first major aftershock occurred twenty minutes after the earthquake; the strongest at 5.5,while most measured 4-5. During the next two days over 50 aftershocks were recorded; more than 1000 occurred up through March. Luckily, the water level did not rise as much as first feared and the tsunami warning was dismissed.

If all this wasn't disturbing enough, the residents of the village of Sitka experienced a series of "unknown hairy hominoid sightings".

Wendigo - Not Bigfoot or Sasquatch

A popular theory and common misconception among some in the bigfoot community is that another name for bigfoot or sasquatch is Wendigo. Let's throw that idea away and put the Wendigo back where he belongs in his own category.

The Wendigo is a man-eating monster or evil spirit in the legends of the Algonquin people who live along the Atlantic Coast and the Great Lakes in both Canada and the United States. The creature may appear either as a monster with some characteristics of a human, or as an evil spirit who has possessed a human being.

Descriptions of the monster may vary, but common traits to all is that it is a "malevolent, cannibalistic, supernatural being".  It is not described as a hair covered giant.
