When Scientists Were Visited by a Yeti - Malcolm's Musings: Cryptozoology

Here's a pair of reports that serve to remind us that not all Bigfoot-esque encounters are terrifying. This first story is set in the mid-1970s with a scientific expedition to Nepal that was visited by a wild mountain ape, aka Yeti. Evidently Abominable was curious about the encampment and took a saunter through, leaving behind evidence, and excited researchers who found it thought it was entirely plausible that the mountains could be home to such creatures. Next up, Torn flag in David City believed to be work of Bigfoot. The shredded flag was found in the Nebraska cemetery just after Memorial Day and was thought to be the work of vandals until the intricate knotwork was discovered. It all sounds crazy until you consider that horses from a nearby farm have recently come in at the end of day with their manes braided. While the image of horses doing one another's hair makes a good comic, the task requires fingers and opposable thumbs. Unemployed hairdressers idling in the grassy fields perhaps? (CM)
