A researcher from Kirov, having visited our taiga, compared the Kuzbass and Vyatka Yeti.
Despite the similarity, “our” turned out to be more talented, “them” - stronger …
Anatoly Fokin, an architect, for 14 years has been looking for the Yeti mainly in the Vyatka forests, studying their traces and "architecture" and is considered one of the most experienced practitioners in Russia. He is also familiar with the taiga of Mountain Shoria. Fokin answered Kuzbass's questions before the next expedition.
How to understand that the yeti is near?
But first I myself will remind you - about our region: a dozen or so stories of Kuzbass people who saw giant footprints in the snow or in clay or a tall silhouette flashing among the trees, have been collected by me over the past few years. And they all indicate that the yeti are elusive, secretive, but sometimes curious.
- I saw Him in a clearing near the house, oh, how scared I was! - my grandmother Raisa Sudochakova from Ust-Kabyrza (Tashtagol district) repeated to me more than once when we met. - I left the house to graze goats into the clearing. About twenty steps away from Him, I first felt, in the very air, that something was wrong. It became quiet. And the two hunting dogs that were running ahead of the goats suddenly backed away and rushed back. If there were an animal ahead, the dogs would rush forward … And this is how they behave only when they meet other, forest people, not like us, people, they were remembered in my childhood by old shorts … And now the dogs rushed back, past me, and I saw … A creature covered with brown hair, but not a bear, not a man … It understood that I had noticed it, got up from the grass to its full height, waved, too, apparently with fright, hands at me and rushed into the bushes, in the forest. It was just above the fence. It ran on two legs. And probably, it was the child of those others - forest, snow people … And I, too, rushed to run, home, and never ran so fast in my life. After that I felt bad for several days …

“I have written down more than thirty testimonies in the same spirit, similar,” says Anatoly Fokin in turn. But for him (unlike me, a journalist), they are not just stories, but the most accurate reference point for searching, for combing a specific section of forests, for installing bait-feeders and video traps.
“And I was especially impressed by the way the witnesses described the lonely monster that did not age,” Fokine continues. - They told how they saw whole families of yeti … Vyatka huntsman Valery Sergeev recalled that when he was picking blueberries, a root from a tree flew into him. He turned and saw three figures: two large, one just below the man. They walked as if in a line about fifty meters from him … At first I thought: where did the women in fur coats come from here? But then I realized that these were two adult females and a cub, it was being driven from its berry place … Their coat color was dark brown, but burnt out in the sun. He got scared and hastened to get out.
Usually here, on Vyatka, they see large yeti, two and a half meters tall (just like you do in Kuzbass). But recently, another Vyatka huntsman with his son saw two gray-haired ones - 1.6 meters tall, they came to his feeder for wild boars …
And all the cases of meetings - with a peaceful outcome (as in Kuzbass). Yeti do not show aggression. The only thing is that they occasionally affect the human psyche, squeezing - accidentally or intentionally - the traveler from "their" territory. For example, the Yeti watched three fishermen on the river, and when they returned to the village, they brought the catch into the house, went to the window. Either he wanted to eat fish, or out of curiosity. But people noticed him, got scared, screams were heard, and the yeti disappeared into the forest … And the fisherman Nikolay Blinov told about it in more detail: “When we returned home, I lay down to rest, dozed off, woke up immediately from a strange alarm. Looked at the floor and went crazy. Mice ran on the floor, squeaked, their fur reared, their eyes were bulging. They seemed to have gone mad, as if some force drove them out of the underground and forced them to rush in a circle, crushing each other. I left the house, felt the fear, turning around,saw a hairy creature towering over a thicket of nettles, and the nettle was as tall as a man. I screamed …
And these are the Vyatka forests, their Yeti is easier to leave a mark on the way, breaking a thick birch and dragging the trunk where needed
Fokin, a 64-year-old researcher, studies the forest on a rotational basis: he lives in the city for half a month, for half a month in villages with constant forays into the thicket, walking up to 30 kilometers a day. He dreams of seeing the Yeti in person. And the fact that he has been close to them more than once is evidenced by the facts.
- When I again went to explore the area of my Yeti feeding trough, two kilometers from it I found one of the beds. On the snow, under the spruce, spruce branches were thrown so that two large creatures could be accommodated on it to rest. The lapnik is broken at a height of up to three meters, and the bed is fresh. Examining him, I suddenly felt bad, my heart ached, terrible fatigue fell upon me, I lost coordination, wandered off to no one knows where "on autopilot." I don't remember how I managed to get to the hut. Having finally come to my senses, I realized: the yeti had an effect on me, on my psyche, forcing me to leave … Later, I experienced the same state twice more, but it passed easier, and I already knew the reason. So yeti avoid contact with humans … And they do not harm people, and in exceptional cases they can even come to the rescue. Alexander Shilyaev said:The yeti saved him from the clutches of a bear, carried him helplessly out of the swamp and left him near the people who had come to the forest for mushrooms!
Travel "notes"
- In general, our Vyatka Yeti do not differ from yours, Kuzbass. This is just the case that they are about the same in everything …
- Only to us, in Kuzbass, according to Igor Burtsev, director of the International Center for Hominology, Yeti come from Gorny Altai. And they don't live like you do, on Vyatka, all the time. And the paths in the Siberian taiga are marked with markers, weaving structures from the trees standing nearby …
- Yes, structures in the form of arches are one of the signs of the yeti's habitat in any forest. And also the highly bent tops and branches of trees … In Vyatka forests, I rarely see structures in the form of arches, and they are much simpler than in Kuzbass. Here you can often find signs in the forest, lined with heavy birch trunks. And during the days of a short expedition to Gornaya Shoria, which was not so long ago, I was surprised at a completely unique marker-arch. The rowan bushes were twisted, no doubt, by the hand of Bigfoot!

So who are they?
Several years ago, the American researcher Melba Ketchum, after analyzing the DNA of wool, yeti saliva from different places, collected by eyewitnesses in the tracks and on marker trees, for the first time stated that the yeti is a hybrid of a person with a creature unknown on Earth.
Researcher Fokin, following the yeti's trail for years, came to the conclusion that Bigfoot is a man. Only special.
- He is not a pathetic excuse for a man, not his dead-end branch and not an endangered species, - Anatoly enumerates. - Yeti - the same divine creature, like you and me, only more perfect. He is strong and hardy, knows how to speak and owns telepathy, has his own development prospects.
And maybe someday, after the last terrible mistake of mankind, it is the yeti who will populate the Earth. Or, with a happy scenario of the future, they will take a step towards us.
