Actually, what we call "vampires" and "werewolves" are (or were) alien species' from other planets outside of our solar system that visited Earth centuries ago. The same is probably true of what we currently call "bigfoot", "Yeti", or "Sasquatch". It would explain why there is never any actual physical evidence found where they were sighted--they're careful to "pack out their trash" in order to remain undiscovered.
Anybody buying this? Yeah, me neither. Not really. But it could make sense if you have the right mindset...or the wrong mindset. Me, I'm what I call a "skeptical, open-minded agnostic". I don't know if there is a God (or Gods, in deference to some beliefs), or ghosts, or bigfeet (bigfoots?), or sentient beings living on other planets, or whatever else is out there that we haven't yet found an explanation for, but I'm also not so arrogant that I can say with any certainty that they don't exist--I simply don't have enough evidence to make a determination one way or the other. Yeah, it can be fun to ponder the existence of such things...as long as you don't get too carried away with it, that is.
There are some that believe that the stories of Yetis, and possibly Sasquatch, may have come an extinct species of ape called Gigantopithecus. They lived anywhere from nine million years to as recently as one hundred thousand years ago and fossils show them to have been around 9.8' tall and weighing over 1/2 ton. However, they only lived in Asia, specifically China, India, and Vietnam which helps explain the Yeti but not Sasquatch, unless the Sasquatch was a story that was brought over the Bering Strait when the first peoples started to come to North America.
