Bigfoot
A large forest-dwelling cryptid of modern North American sighting lore.
Legend File
Bigfoot belongs to modern cryptid folklore, especially in the forests of the Pacific Northwest, where footprints, sightings, films, jokes, hoaxes, and sincere belief have built a durable legend. The figure works because it keeps wilderness partially unmeasured. Even in a mapped world, the forest might still contain something that refuses proof.
