The faithful who believe in the existence of mystical mountain creatures known as “Yetis” will be disappointed to find out what scientists recently discovered about the legend.
The huge, hairy, ape-like creatures that have intrigued mountaineers, researchers and curious folk in general have been revealed to be not that mystical after all.
In fact, scientists who studied samples of hair and teeth supposedly from Yetis have reported that the samples mostly belonged to bears, according to Fox News.
“This study represents the most rigorous analysis to date of samples suspected to derive from anomalous or mythical ‘hominid’-like creatures, strongly suggesting the biological basis of the yeti legend as local brown and black bears,” a report from the Proceedings of the Royal Society B concluded.
The legend of the elusive Yeti describes the creature to be a shy, furry, human-like “snowman” who lives in mountainous Nepal and Tibet.
