The Legend Of Yeti, The Abominable Snowman

You can't discuss intriguing facts about Nepal without mentioning this character, also known as the 'Yeti' or 'Jigou' by Himalayan Tibetans, a beast that has been described as a bipedal creature that leans slightly forward. The Yeti, also known as the Abominable Snowman, is a strange bipedal creature who is claimed to live in Asia's highlands. It is known to leave tracks in the snow and to live below the Himalayan snow line. Despite numerous of trips into Russia's, China's, and Nepal's isolated alpine regions, the Yeti's existence remains a mystery.

The Yeti is described as muscular, with dark grey or reddish-brown hair and a weight range of 200 to 400 pounds. (between 91 and 181 kg) It stands about 6 feet (1.8 meters) tall, which is short in comparison to Bigfoot in North America. Yetis have been reported in a variety of shapes, though this is the most prevalent. Although residents in some monasteries claim to have remnants belonging to this beast, many experts believe these samples are unreliable, leaving only myths to characterize it as a large bipedal ape said to live in the Himalayan woodland areas.
