The Patang Snowman
The Legend:
In 1913 a group of Chinese hunters wounded and captured a hairy man-like creature, that the Tibetans called a snowman. The creature was kept captive in Patang in Sinkiang Province until it died, about five months after its capture. It was described as having a black monkey-like face, and being covered with silvery yellow hair several inches long; its hands and feet were more man-like than ape-like, and were incredibly stong. It grunted and made gutteral noises, but mostly made loud whistling sounds with its lips.
