I feel bad for the stray dog or fox that gets confused with this imaginary creature.

I named a sandwich after it. It's bacon, avocado, mayo, and a fried egg on toasted bread. Looks ugly but it's so good it'll make you cry.

Now I want to know everybody's super local cryptids. None of your Yeti, Pacific Northwest Bigfoot, Nessie or even Chupacabra here.

I want to know about shit like my hometown's Humanzee or the Lake Worth monster from a town near my current home.

On the Olympic peninsula in Washington we apparently have forest octopi. They're very good at camouflage.

So good there are no truly confirmed sightings? Love it.

There's a lot of fun cryptids in that region. Apart from the Pennsylvania White Bigfoot, there's the snallygaster and the dewayo. I think the former is because there's a lot of herons in the area, and the latter is your standard "omg a weird bear" cryptid.

lake worth monster! Caddo has the Caddo Critter and San Antonio has the Donkeylady.

Its said that the creature is so ugly that looking at it can kill you. In fact, it's said that people specifically went looking for the squonk to try and cheer it up only to die from its appearance. It must be the loneliest cryptic there is.

He should go hang out with the hodag and gain some self esteem

The Samsquanch?
