The confusion comes from a mistranslation of one of the beast's many names, Metoh-kangmi, Sino-Tibetan for 'abominable man of the rocks'. It was mistranslated as 'abominable man of the snows. This is where we get the western term ‘Abominable Snowman’ from. (Richard Thomas, Para-News)
LA Animal Control issues first ever license for pet unicorn ownership | Boing Boing:
Last month, a young girl named Madeline write a letter to the LA County Department of Animal Care and Control requesting formal government permission to keep a unicorn in her backyard. Presumably, Madeline had already asked her parents if she could have a unicorn, and rather than disappoint their child by letting her know how impossible it would be to actually capture and domesticate a unicorn, they passed the buck to the bureaucrats instead —
Tim Binnall at Coast to Coast shares a video of Bigfoot in Canada that is pretty compelling. Unless it's fake, of course. I'm always a bit suspicious when the photographer just happens to be at the one clear spot at the exact moment a Sasquatch happens to walk through. On the. other hand, it is a very realistic looking Sasquatch, color, movement, body shape, etc.
First it was a cat that got itself cozy inside a suitcase and was discovered by TSA, now a poor doggo found its way into a backpack.
Odd coincidence.

The Norwegian Blue Owl. Beautiful. Magical. But not true. Maybe it exists in some other realm, but sadly, not in Norway, or anywhere else in this reality.
Item in New York Post. Forty cows have died recently in Meeker, Colorado. No one knows the cause of death. Wolves, bacterial infections, are two theories, but anything definitive remains elusive.
Officials have utilized aerial flights, howling surveys and game cameras to look for wolves and wolf tracks to no avail. There have been no confirmed wolf reports in the area, only unconfirmed sightings, leaving officials confused and desperate for an answer. (New York Post)
