Legends of large, hairy, ape-like beasts can be found all over the world. Since the 1950s, the United States’ version of this has been “Bigfoot”, or Sasquatch depending on the region. Not only does the legend of Bigfoot serve as a reminder to those who would desecrate its woods, but in 1976, the FBI started on a file on the creature.
