YETIS, MONSTER OR MYTH?“Yetis are pure and white as snow... Yetis have a soft side that they don't show... Yeti this Yeti that, The Yetis rule and you know it” - Captain Terpin TiminsIntroduction: Yetis are creatures supposedly created from myth and fiction. They are large, stormy creatures. Yetis can be classified in the same family as Sasquatch and Big Foot. Many people believe that Yetis are not real and are illusions of men who claim to have seen them. After studying them, I want to say that Yetis are affectionate and cuddly, but don't try to hug a Yeti. I chose to write about Yetis because they are interesting and seem magical. There is so little belief in magic and wonder these days that the Yeti is one of the few characters people believe in. I have spoken to many people about their opinions on Yetis and the Yeti lifestyle. At least half of the people I spoke to deny the truth behind these nomadic indigenous species. What is a Yeti? Contrary to popular belief, Yetis are not carnivores, they do not attack people unless provoked, as many animals do to protect their territory, their food and their families. The largest population of Yeti is found in the Arctic or cold climates. The Yeti civilization keeps itself hidden and camouflaged with layers of white fur and cave-like homes. Like humans, they feed and raise their offspring until they are able to find their own prey and care for themselves. Yetis are omnivores and eat many different plants in addition to meat, the impression that Yetis eat people was derived from the fact that in the Arctic there are not many plants that satisfy the Yeti food chain. Yetis evolved from humans like hominids. Yetis are human in characteristics we share such as an opposable thumb, a large brain, and the ability to stand upright. Is there evidence of life in the Yeti? Yes, although it is not common knowledge, there is evidence of the Yeti, Yeti fossils have been recovered from many regions that at one point in time were covered in ice millions of years ago. Although the fossils were not complete and the Yeti's body structures were obviously missing pieces, there is no denying the Yeti's presence. In developed parts of the northern or southern Arctic regions many locals claim to have had encounters with the Yeti.
